Analysis of clinical characteristics of leptomeningeal metastasis with band-like high signal in the brainstem

Objective:The aim was to analyse the clinical features of leptomeningeal metastasis with banded high signal in the brainstem.Methods:In this paper,we report two cases of lung adenocarcinoma with soft meningeal metastasis,collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical College,and searched the databases of CNKI,Wanfang,VIP,PubMed,Web of Science,and other databases which reported the MRI manifestation of"brainstem bandlike high signal",and collected the patients'past medical history,symptoms,signs,genetic findings,cerebrospinal fluid manifestation,treatment,and prognosis.Result:A total of 28 patients were included,of whom 26 had a history of lung adenocarcinoma and 2 were found to have occupational changes in the lungs.Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)showed a band-like high signal in the ventral part of the brainstem on T2-FLAIR,symmetrical on both sides,which could extend to the cerebellar peduncles,with high signals on diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI),low signals on apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC),and long T1 signals on T1-weighted imaging,long T2 signals on T2 weighted imaging,and no long T2 signals on enhancement scan.T1-weighted imaging was a long T1 signal,T2-weighted imaging was a long T2 signal,and no enhancement was seen on enhanced scanning.Conclusion:It is important to recognize leptomeningeal metastasis of lung cancer,and the non-enhancing band of high signal in the brainstem on T2-FLAIR and DWI is likely to be the characteristic manifestation of leptomeningeal metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer.

HIGH RESOLUTION RANGE PROFILE FORMATION BASED ON LFM SIGNAL FUSION OF MULTIPLE RADARS

This paper presents a new method of High Resolution Range (HRR) profile formation based on Linear Frequency Modulation (LFM) signal fusion of multiple radars with multiple frequency bands. The principle of the multiple radars signal fusion improving the range resolution is analyzed. With the analysis of return signals received by two radars,it is derived that the phase difference between the echoes varies almost linearly with respect to the frequency if the distance between two radars is neg-ligible compared with the radar observation distance. To compensate the phase difference,an en-tropy-minimization principle based compensation algorithm is proposed. During the fusion process,the B-splines interpolation method is applied to resample the signals for Fourier transform imaging. The theoretical analysis and simulations results show the proposed method can effectively increase signal bandwidth and provide a high resolution range profile.

High Sensitivity Acquisition Algorithm for DSSS Signal with Data Modulation

In direct sequence spread spectrum communication both for satelliteto-ground and inter-satellite links, the system constrains due to radio frequency spectral occupation, channel data throughput and link performances in terms of data channel coding which might result in a signal structure where the symbol duration is shorter than the pseudo code period. This can generate some difficulties in the DSSS signal acquisition due to the polarity inversion caused by the data modulation. To eliminate the influence due to polarity inversion, this paper proposes a novel acquisition algorithm based on the simultaneous search of the code phase, data phase and Doppler frequency. In the proposed algorithm the data phase is predicted and the correlation period for the coherent integration can be set equal to the symbol duration. Then non-coherent accumulation over different symbol is implemented in order to enhance the acquisition algorithm sensitivity; the interval of non-coherent accumulation is the least common multiple between the symbol duration and the pseudo code period. The algorithm proposed can largely minimize the SNR loss caused by data polarity inversion and enhance acquisition performance without a noticeable increase in hardware complexity. Theoretical analysis, simulation and measured results verify the validity of the algorithm.

Adaptive controller design based on input-output signal selection for voltage source converter high voltage direct current systems to improve power system stability

An input-output signal selection based on Phillips-Heffron model of a parallel high voltage alternative current/high voltage direct current(HVAC/HVDC) power system is presented to study power system stability. It is well known that appropriate coupling of inputs-outputs signals in the multivariable HVDC-HVAC system can improve the performance of designed supplemetary controller. In this work, different analysis techniques are used to measure controllability and observability of electromechanical oscillation mode. Also inputs–outputs interactions are considered and suggestions are drawn to select the best signal pair through the system inputs-outputs. In addition, a supplementary online adaptive controller for nonlinear HVDC to damp low frequency oscillations in a weakly connected system is proposed. The results obtained using MATLAB software show that the best output-input for damping controller design is rotor speed deviation as out put and phase angle of rectifier as in put. Also response of system equipped with adaptive damping controller based on HVDC system has appropriate performance when it is faced with faults and disturbance.

基于谐波分解恢复弱势信号的高分辨率处理技术

地震资料高分辨率处理是预测薄储集层的有效手段,高分辨率处理的主要目的是有效恢复地震高、低频信息和拓宽频带,同时保持资料的信噪比和保真度。基于谐波分解恢复弱势信号的高分辨率处理技术,以压缩小波变换为基础,根据信号谐波分量对地震高、低频弱势信号进行恢复。首先,基于有效频带内的地震信号,采用压缩小波变换将其分解为各基频信号,然后计算各基频信号的高次谐波与低次谐波,将计算出的高次谐波与低次谐波加入小波变换系数中,最后进行小波逆变换,即可恢复高、低频弱势信号。在实现过程中,仅仅在有效频带内估算基频信号,能较好地保持信号的信噪比。地震信号的小波变换系数与地层反射系数具有一致性,因此该技术具有较高的保真度,可以较好保持相对振幅关系。实际应用表明,在保持资料信噪比的同时,该技术能大幅拓宽地震资料的频带,处理后的地震剖面断点更清楚,分辨能力改善明显,能较好地识别6 000 m以深约40 m的薄储集层。

Treatable focal region modulated by double excitation signal superimposition to realize platform temperature distribution during transcranial brain tumor therapy with high-intensity focused ultrasound

Recently, the phase compensation technique has allowed the ultrasound to propagate through the skull and focus into the brain. However, the temperature evolution during treatment is hard to control to achieve effective treatment and avoid over-high temperature. Proposed in this paper is a method to modulate the temperature distribution in the focal region. It superimposes two signals which focus on two preset different targets with a certain distance. Then the temperature distribution is modulated by changing triggering time delay and amplitudes of the two signals. The simulation model is established based on an 82-element transducer and computed tomography （CT） data of a volunteer＇s head. A finite- difference time-domain （FDTD） method is used to calculate the temperature distributions. The results show that when the distances between the two targets respectively are 7.5-12.5 mm on the acoustic axis and 2.0-3.0 mm in the direction perpendicular to the acoustic axis, a focal region with a uniform temperature distribution （64-65 ℃） can be created. Moreover, the volume of the focal region formed by one irradiation can be adjusted （26.8-266.7 mm3） along with the uniform temperature distribution. This method may ensure the safety and efficacy of HIFU brain tumor therapy.

An innovative detection method of high frequency BPSK signal with low signal-to-noise ratio

Based on chaotic oscillator system, this paper proposes a novel method on high frequency low signal-to-noise ratio BPSK(Binary Phase Shift Keying) signal detection. Chaotic oscillator system is a typical non-linear system which is sensitive to periodic signals and immune to noise at the same time. Those properties make it possible to detect low signal-to-noise ratio signals. The BPSK signal is a common signal type which is widely used in modern communication. Starting from the analysis of advantages of chaotic oscillator system and signal features of the BPSK signal, we put forward a unique method that can detect low signal-to-noise ratio BPSK signals with high frequency. The simulation results show that the novel method can detect low signal-to-noise ratio BPSK signals with frequency in an order of magnitude of 108 Hz, and the input Signal-to-Noise Ratio threshold can be -20 dB.
