Synchronization for the Environment of OFDM Cooperative Communications Based on Preamble Design and Phase Rotation

Timing and carrier frequency offset estimation are critical issue for OFDM cooperative communications. In view of the complexity and high accuracy requirement, 1/2 and 1/4 pilot symbol cycle CAZAC sequence structures are defined as the pilot frequency sequence. Estimation within one symbol cycle is carried out through averaging samples of two neighboring symbol cycles, after which the operation is expanded to all the symbol cycles in one band group. Taking multipath effect into account, the concept of phase rotation is proposed for a further step. Adjust the phase difference of estimated symbols by phase rotation, and cross estimation could be done. Meanwhile, timing scheme works within one cycle training sequence. Theoretical and simulation analysis indicate that CRLB does not only relate to estimation symbol length, but also be influenced by phase difference of estimation symbols seriously. In the condition that the length of estimation is fixed, the bigger the phase rotation angle is, the smaller the CRLB is. The complexity of proposed algorithm is less than full cycle average estimation method for almost 50%. Meanwhile, the estimation accuracy is approximate with the full cycle average estimation method as well. Timing scheme with the defined preamble structure is also proposed. Simulation proves its efficiency.

A new method for resolving phase ambiguity in radio interferometry using Earth rotation synthesis

As a key technique in deep space navigation, radio interferometry can be used to determine the accurate location of a spacecraft in the plane-of-sky by measuring its signal propagation time delay between two remote stations. To improve the measurement accuracy, differential phase delay without phase ambiguity is usually desired. Aiming at the difficulties of resolving phase ambiguity with few stations and narrowband downlink signals, a new method is proposed in this work by taking advantage of the Earth rotation. The high accurate differential phase delay between the spacecraft and a calibrator can be achieved not only in the in-beam observation mode but also in the out-of-beam observation mode. In this paper we firstly built the model of phase ambiguity resolution. Then, main measurement errors of the model are analyzed, which is followed by tests and validations of the model and method using the tracking data of the Cassini mission and Chang'E-3 mission. The results show that the phase ambiguities can be correctly resolved to generate a 10-picosecond level accuracy differential phase delay. Angular measurement accuracy of the Cassini reaches the milli-arc-second level, and the relative position accuracy between the Chang'E-3 rover and lander reaches the meter level.

Electric-field-induced in-plane effective 90°magnetization rotation in Co2FeAl/PMN-PT structure

The in-plane effective 90°magnetization rotation of Co_(2) FeAl thin film grown on PMN-PT substrate induced by the electric field is investigated at room temperature.The magnetic hysteresis loops under different positive and negative electric fields are obtained,which reveals remanent magnetization can be mediated by the electric field.Moreover,under positive electric fields,the obvious 90°magnetization rotation can be observed,while remanent magnetization is nearly unchanged under negative electric fields.The result is consistent with the electric field dependence of effective magnetic field,which can be attributed to the piezostrain effect in Co_(2) FeAl/PMN-PT structure.In addition,the piezostrain-mediated 90°magnetization rotation can be demonstrated by the result of resonance field changing with electric field in the measurement of ferromagnetic resonance,which is promising for the design of future multiferroic devices.

Effects of rotation and gravity on an electro-magneto-thermoelastic medium with diffusion and voids by using the Lord-Shulman and dual-phase-lag models

The effects of rotation and gravity on an electro-magneto-thermoelastic medium with diffusion and voids in a generalized thermoplastic half-space are studied by using the Lord-Shulman (L-S) model and the dual-phase-lag (DPL) model. The analytical solutions for the displacements, stresses, temperature, diffusion concentration, and volume fraction field with different values of the magnetic field, the rotation, the gravity, and the initial stress are obtained and portrayed graphically. The results indicate that the effects of gravity, rotation, voids, diffusion, initial stress, and electromagnetic field are very pronounced on the physical properties of the material.

Rotational and translational domains of beta precipitate in aged binary Mg-Ce alloys

The structural evolution fromβ_(1)(Mg_(3)Ce)toβ(Mg_(12)Ce)precipitates,which takes place at the over-aged stage of binary Mg-Ce alloys,are investigated by high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy.The structural transformation mainly occurs in the{111}_(β1)crystallographic planes,where the newly formedβlattices exhibit two categories of domain structures,namely rotational and translational domains.The rotational domain is composed of threeβdomains(β_(RA),β_(RB)andβ_(RC)),which are related by a 120°rotation with respect to each other around the 111_(β1)axis of theirβ_(1)parent phase.The{111}_(β1)crystallographic planes can provide four sets of sublattices with the same orientation for an initial nucleation ofβlattice.It leads to the formation of four translationalβdomains(β_(TA),β_(TB),β_(TC)andβ_(TD)),among which any two differ by a vector of 1/6112_(β1).We deduce theoretically that there exist twenty-fourβdomains during this transition.However,considering the interfacial misfit,only one-third of domains can grow up and eventually formsβribbon.Furthermore,a majority ofβribbons overlap partiallyβ_(1)plate,which is beneficial to relax interfacial strain amongβ,β_(1)andα-Mg matrix(α/β/β_(1)).The configuration of multipleβdomains can effectively regulate interfacial misfit ofα/βandβ/β_(1),which are responsible for enhancing the hardness and strength of Mg-Ce alloy.Additionally,this study aims to provide some clues to improve the over-aged performance of magnesium alloys by constructingβdomains and optimizing theα/β/β_(1)interface.

Ellipsometric configurations using a phase retarder and a rotating polarizer and analyzer at any speed ratio

In this paper, we propose an ellipsometer using a phase retarder and rotating polarizer and analyzer at a speed ratio I：N. Different ellipsometric configurations are presented by assuming N = 1, 2, and 3. Moreover, two values of the offset angle of the retarder are considered for each ellipsometric configuration. The Mueller formalism is employed to extract the Stokes parameters, from which the intensity received by the detector is obtained. The optical properties of c-Si are calculated using all configurations. A comparison between different configurations is carried out considering the effect of the noise on the results and the uncertainties in the ellipsometric parameters as functions of the uncertainties of the Fourier coefficients. It is found that the alignment of the phase retarder has a crucial impact on the results and the ellipsometric configuration with speed ratio 1：1 is preferred over the other configurations.

TWO-PHASE FLOW PATTERNS IN A 90° BEND AT MICROGRAVITY

Bends are widely used in pipelines carrying single-and two-phase fluids in both ground and space applications.In particular,they play more important role in space applications due to the extreme spatial constraints.In the present study,a set of experimental data of two-phase flow patterns and their transitions in a 90°bend with inner diameter of 12.7 mm and curvature radius of 76.5 mm at microgravity conditions are reported.Gas and liquid superficial velocities are found to range from (1.0～23.6)m/s for gas and(0.09～0.5)m/s for liquid,respectively.Three major flow patterns, namely slug,slug-annular transitional,and annular flows,are observed in this study.Focusing on the differences between flow patterns in bends and their counterparts in straight pipes,detailed analyses of their characteristics are made.The transitions between adjoining flow patterns are found to be more or less the same as those in straight pipes,and can be predicted using Weber number models satisfactorily. The reasons for such agreement are carefully examined.

Simulation and Analysis on the Two-Phase Flow Fields in a Rotating-Stream-Tray Absorber by Using Computational Fluid Dynamics

The flow field of gas and liquid in a φ150mm rotating-stream-tray (RST) scrubber is simulated by using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) method. The simulation is based on the two-equation RNG κ-ε turbulence model, Eulerian multiphase model, mad a real-shape 3D model with a huge number of meshes. The simulation results include detailed information about velocity, pressure, volume fraction and so on. Some features of the flow field are obtained: liquid is atomized in a thin annular zone; a high velocity air zone prevents water drops at the bottom from flying towards the wall;the pressure varies sharply at the end of blades and so on. The results will be helpful for structure optimization and engineering design.

Experimental study on the spatial distribution of particle rotation in the upper dilute zone of a cold CFB riser

Particle rotation plays an important role in gas-solid flows. This paper presents an experimental investigation on the spatial distribution of average rotation speed for glass beads in the upper dilute zone of a cold circulating fluidized bed(CFB) riser. It is shown that in the horizontal direction,the average rotation speed in the near-wall area is larger than that in the center area,while in the vertical direction,it decreases as the height increases. The reason resulting in this distribution is analyzed by considering several factors including particle size,particle shape,particle number density,particle collision behavior,and the surrounding flow field,etc. The effects of CFB operation conditions on the spatial distribution of average rotation speed are also studied. The results show that the increasing superficial gas velocity increases the average rotation speed of particles in the near wall area but takes nearly no effect on that in the center area. The external solids mass flux,however,takes the opposite effect. It is found that the average rotation speeds of particles in both areas are increased as the total amount of bed material increases.

Simple Landau Model of the Liquid-RII-RI Rotator Phases of Alkanes

Simple Landau free energy function is presented to describe the Liquid-RII-RI phase sequence of alkanes and transitions between them. The order parameters necessary to describe these rotator phase transitions are identified. We present a mean-field description of the Liquid-RII and Liquid-RI transitions. General arguments are presented for the topology of the phase diagram in the vicinity of the Liquid-RII-RI triple point. Within this model the Liquid-RII and Liquid-RI transitions are found to be always strongly first order. Calculations based on this model agree qualitatively with experiments.

Bilaterally Symmetrical Transformation between Independent Operators and Rotations

This report describes an approach for representation of quantum operators through rotations and rotation through quantum operators. The approach of the proposed method transforms rotation in a kind of a unitary matrix that corresponds to the rotation. Operations with qubits are very similar to the rotation, but with an added phase coefficient. This fact is used to create a process for rotation between unitary matrices. This approach could be used to modifying the controls to apply in a different basis.

Nonlinear Polarization Rotation Characteristic Phenomenon in a Bulk Semiconductor Optical Amplifier

The phenomena of polarization rotation induced by self-modulation in semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) are analyzed theoretically. The relationship between polarization parameters and gain as well as phase is obtained by the correlation parameter of ellipse polarization and SOA nonlinearity polarization rotation theory. The experiment employs polarizer drive by walking electromotor and power meter, the light power of 360 degree is measured. The transformation law of output polarization power components is found for obvious polarization rotation in the selected coordinate axes based on connection of polarization state in difference axes. Using this law make the manipulation easily on getting ideal polarization state. It can offer a fine method to realize all-optical switch and other logic elements in experiment. This work is of great significance for the applications of SOA nonlinear polarization rotation at high-speed all-optical signal processing and all-optical logic gate.

Geometric phases in qubit-oscillator system beyond conventional rotating-wave approximation

In this work we investigated the geometric phases of a qubit-oscillator system beyond the conventional rotating- wave approximation. We find that in the limiting of weak coupling the results coincide with that obtained under rotating-wave approximation while there exists an increasing difference with the increase of coupling constant. It was shown that the geometric phase is symmetric with respect to the sign of the detuning of the quantized field from the one-photon resonance under the conventional rotating-wave approximation while a red-blue detuning asymmetry occurs beyond the conventional rotating-wave approximation.
