This algorithm is based on the U.S. operational HCA. Meanwhile, the methodology of statistics-based optimization is proposed including calibration checking, datasets selection, membership functions modification, computation thresholds modification, and effect verification. Zhuhai radar, the first operational polarimetric radar in South China, applies these procedures. The systematic bias of calibration is corrected, the reliability of radar measurements deteriorates when the signal-to-noise ratio is low, and correlation coefficient within the melting layer is usually lower than that of the U.S. WSR-88D radar. Through modification based on statistical analysis of polarimetric variables, the localized HCA especially for Zhuhai is obtained, and it performs well over a one-month test through comparison with sounding and surface observations. The algorithm is then utilized for analysis of a squall line process on 11 May 2014 and is found to provide reasonable details with respect to horizontal and vertical structures, and the HCA results---especially in the mixed rain-hail region--can reflect the life cycle of the squall line. In addition, the kinematic and microphysical processes of cloud evolution and the differences between radar- detected hail and surface observations are also analyzed. The results of this study provide evidence for the improvement of this HCA developed specifically for China.展开更多

The recent progress in chip-based microcombs has promoted the on-chip dual-commeasuring systems to a new phase attributed to the large frequency spacing and broad spectrum. In this paper, wdemonstrate proof-of-concept dual-comb generation with orthogonal polarization in a single microresonatthrough pumping both the transverse-electric(TE) and transverse-magnetic(TM) modes simultaneously. Ttwo orthogonal polarized pumps are self-oscillating in a fiber ring cavity. The generated dual comb exhibits ecellent stability due to the intrinsic feedback mechanism of the self-locked scheme. The repetition rate the two orthogonal combs is slightly different because of the mode spacing difference between the TE anTM modes. Such orthogonal polarized dual-combs could be a new comb source for out-of-lab applicatioin the fields of integrated spectroscopy, ranging measurement, optical frequency synthesis, and microwacomb generation.展开更多

The combination of satellite component (SC) and terrestrial component (TC) promises a better quality of service (QoS). Multimedia broadcast and multicast services (MBMS) are expected to be prevailed in this kind of system. Several space frequency (SF) or space time (ST) codes have been proposed to enhance the system performance due to the lack of reverse link and omni-directional transmission. However, they mostly consider the system with only one SC and one TC and fail to make full use of available diversities. This paper presents a novel way to realize the dual polarization multiple input multiple output (MIMO) transmission by using the space time frequency (STF) code. The theoretical analysis and simulations indicate that the application of STF code can improve the system performance dramatically. A higher diversity gain can be achieved due to the cooperative transmission of SC and TC, while the coding gain can be enhanced by the reusing of STF code between SCs or TCs. Even if some of the links are lost, it can still work properly and benefit from the STF code. The relative relay can result in a degradation up to 0.5 dB in the coding gain.展开更多

Ttwo orthogonal polarized pumps are self-oscillating in a fiber ring cavity. The generated dual comb exhibits ecellent stability due to the intrinsic feedback mechanism of the self-locked scheme. The repetition rate the two orthogonal combs is slightly different because of the mode spacing difference between the TE anTM modes. Such orthogonal polarized dual-combs could be a new comb source for out-of-lab applicatioin the fields of integrated spectroscopy, ranging measurement, optical frequency synthesis, and microwacomb generation.

文摘This study uses rain gauge observations to assess the performance of different radar estimators R(ZH),R(KDP)and R(A)in estimating precipitation based on the observations of an S-band polarimetric radar over southern China during a typical convective storm and an extremely severe typhoon,i.e.,Typhoon Manghkut.These radar estimators were derived from observations of a local autonomous particle size and velocity(Parsivel)unit(APU)disdrometer.A key parameter,alpha(α),which is the ratio of specific attenuation A to specific differential phase KDP with three fixed values(α=0.015 dB deg^(-1),α=0.0185 dB deg^(-1)andα=0.03 dB deg^(-1))was examined to test the sensitivity of the R(A)rain retrievals.The results show that:(1)All radar estimators can capture the spatio-temporal patterns of two precipitation events,R(A)withα=0.0185 dB deg^(-1)is well correlated with gauge measurement via higher Pearson’s correlation coefficient(CC)of 0.87,lower relative bias(RB)of 16%,and lower root mean square error(RMSE)of 17.09 mm in the convective storm while it underestimates the typhoon event with RB of 35%;(2)R(A)withα=0.03 dB deg^(-1)shows the best statistical scores with the highest CC(0.92),lowest RB(7%)and RMSE(25.74 mm)corresponding to Typhoon Manghkut;(3)R(A)estimates are more efficient in mitigating the impact of partial beam blockage.The results indicate thatαis remarkably influenced by the variation of drop size distribution.Thus,more work is needed to establish an automated and optimizedαfor the R(A)relation during different rainfall events over different regions.
文摘The magneto-electric dipole antenna is a kind of complementary antenna composed of a planar electric dipole and a shorted patch antenna. It has excellent electrical characteristics including wide impedance bandwidth, low cross-polarization, low back lobe radiation, nearly identical E-plane and H-plane patterns, stable radiation pattern, and steady antenna gain over the operating frequency range. In this paper, the basic characteristics of a linearly polarized magneto-electric dipole antenna are reviewed, and a dual-polarized antenna element based on the magneto-electric dipole is presented. The design of a conical beam wideband antenna with horizontal polarization is also described. These antennas have practical applications in modern 2G, 3G, LTE, WiFi, and WiMax wireless communication systems.
文摘A polarized reconfigurable patch antenna is proposed in this paper.The proposed antenna is a dual cross-polarized patch antenna with a programmable power divider.The programmable power divider consists of two branch line couplers(BLC)and a digital phase shifter.By adjusting the phase of the phase shifter,the power ratio of the power divider can be changed,and thus the feed power to the antenna input port can be changed to reconfigure the antenna polarization.The phase-controlled power divider and the cross dual-polarized antenna are designed,fabricated and tested,and then they are combined to realize the polarized reconfigurable antenna.By moving the phase of the phase shifter,the antenna polarization is reconfigured into vertical polarization(VP),horizontal polarization(HP),and circular polarization(CP).The test is conducted at the frequency of 915 MHz,which is widely used for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer(SWIPT)in radio-frequency identification(RFID)applications.The results demonstrate that when the antenna is configured as CP,the axial ratio of the antenna is less than 3 dB,and when the antenna is configured as HP or VP,the axial ratio of the antenna exceeds 20 dB.Finally,experiments are conducted to verify the influence of antenna polarization changes on wireless power transmitting.As expected,the reconfigured antenna polarization can help improve the power transmitting efficiency.

文摘Squall line is a kind of common mesoscale disaster weather.At present,there are few studies on the elaborate detection of squall line by dual polarization radar.With the dual polarization upgrade of weather radar network,we need to study the relationship between squall line echoes of base data and polarization data to reveal new echo phenomena and formation mechanisms.The relationship between radar parameters and atmospheric physical processes also need to be examined.Based on the NUIST CDP radar,a squall line in the Yangtze and Huaihe River basin that occurred from July 30 to 31,2014 is analyzed.The results show that polarization parameters have obvious advantages in the characteristics analysis of size,phase state,shape and orientation of the water condensate particles.The phase states of water condensate particles in convection cell can be distinguished through comparative discussion.Several phase states exist in the squall line,including small,medium and large raindrops,melting hails,dry hails and ice crystal particles and the Z_(DR)column can be used to identify the location of the main updraft.In addition,the polarization parameters are more sensitive to the melting layer.The gust front is presented as a narrow linear echo in Z affected by strong turbulence.It is an obvious velocity convergence line in V and approximately 0.70 inρ_(HV).The Z_(DR)can be used as a criterion to distinguish the horizontal and vertical scale of turbulence.The deforming turbulence,which is affected by environmental airflow,will cause an abnormally high Z_(DR)in the gust front and a negative Z_(DR)before and after the gust front.The variation of Z_(DR)depends on the turbulence arrangement,orientation and relative position between turbulence and radar.These dual polarization parameter characteristics offer insights into understanding the structure and evolution of the squall line.

文摘Theoretical study and development of a dual linear polarization weather radar in China are briefly presented. Also discussed are the potential uses of the new radar system in improving the accuracy of areal rainfall measure- ments and analysing the spacial structure of storms and distribution of hydrometecrs in clouds based on the radar observational data from the field experimcnts during the summers of 1987—1989. The results indicate that a C-band dual polarization weather radar, after considering the microwave attenuation correction, may be employed to quantitatively measure rainfall and to monitor heavy rain and flood events and becomes an impor- rant means to study storm structure.

文摘The hybrid mobile satellite system operating in a single frequency network (SFN) mode is increasingly becoming attractive. The combination of satellite component (SC) and terrestrial component (TC) promises a better quality of service (QoS). Multimedia broadcast and multicast services (MBMS) are expected to be prevailed in this kind of system. Several space frequency (SF) or space time (ST) codes have been proposed to enhance the system performance due to the lack of reverse link and omni-directional transmission. However, they mostly consider the system with only one SC and one TC and fail to make full use of available diversities. This paper presents a novel way to realize the dual polarization multiple input multiple output (MIMO) transmission by using the space time frequency (STF) code. The theoretical analysis and simulations indicate that the application of STF code can improve the system performance dramatically. A higher diversity gain can be achieved due to the cooperative transmission of SC and TC, while the coding gain can be enhanced by the reusing of STF code between SCs or TCs. Even if some of the links are lost, it can still work properly and benefit from the STF code. The relative relay can result in a degradation up to 0.5 dB in the coding gain.

文摘In part I,the clear air echo in front of the squall line is caused by turbulence diffraction,which makes the Z_(DR) echo characteristics different from particle scattering.To study the turbulence deformation phenomenon that is affected by environmental wind,the turbulence-related method is used to analyze the characteristics of three-dimensional turbulence energy spectrum density,and the parametric model of turbulence integral length scale and environmental wind speed is established.The results show that the horizontal scale of turbulence is generally larger than the vertical scale.The turbulence is nearly isotropic in the horizontal direction,presenting a flat ellipsoid with the vertical orientation of the rotation axis when there is no horizontal wind or the horizontal velocity is small.When horizontal wind exists,the turbulence scale increases along the dominant wind direction.The turbulence scale is positively correlated with the wind speed.The power function is used to fit the relationships of turbulence integral length scale and horizontal wind speed,which obtains the best fitting effect,and the goodness of fit(GF)is above 0.99 in each direction.The deforming turbulence can cause 8-9 dB Z_(DR) anomalies in the echo of dual polarization radar,which the ratio of scales in the dominant wind and the vertical direction of deforming turbulence(L_(u)/L_(w))is around 4.3.The variation in Z_(DR) depends on the turbulence shape,orientation and the relative position between turbulence and radar.The shape of turbulence derived from radar detection results is consistent with that of the parametric model,which can provide a parametric scheme for turbulence research.The results reveal the mechanism of abnormal Z_(DR) echo caused by deforming turbulence.

文摘Spectrum sensing with multiple antennas for cognitive radio systems in microcell environments is affected by the spatial correlation among multiple antennas.To reduce the adverse effects of the spatial correlation on the spectrum sensing performance,we employ multiple dual polarization antennas at the sensing node of secondary users.The analysis of the spatial correlation is derived using the propagation characteristics of the electromagnetic wave based on the scattering patch model in a multipath microcell environment.The superiority of spectrum sensing with multiple dual polarized antennas over multiple mono-polarized antennas is shown by analyzing the false alarm and detection probabilities with the correlation among the antennas in a microcell environment.

Then the volume V(K~*) satisfies the inequality V(K~*)≥(n+1)~nω_n, where ω_n denotes the volume of an n-dimensional unit ball. Equality holds if and only if K is a ball centered at the centroid of the simplex.
