Velocity compensation is also the necessary step for one-dimensional range profile imaging. According to the high-vdocity characteristics of ballistic objects and the low data rate of phased array radars with multiple target tracking, a fine spectral line digital velocity tracking frame is presented and a new method is developed to extract velocity error and resolve the velocity ambiguity in the measurement loop.

Testing principles and methods for time- asynchrony parameter identification are studied. Under the single- axis swaying environment, the relationships between the SINS platform drift rate and the gyro time-asynchrony are derived using the SINS attitude error equation. It is found that the gyro time- asynchrony error can be considered as a kind of pseudo-coning motion error caused by data processing. After gyro testing and synchronization, the single-axis tumble test method is introduced for the testing of each accelerometer time-asynchrony with respect to the ideal gyro triad. Accelerometer time-asynchrony parame- ter identification models are established using SINS specific force equation. Finally, all of the relative time-asynchrony parameters between inertial sensors are well identified by using fiber optic gyro SIMU as experimental verification.展开更多

A state-of-the-art GPS processing strategy was used to resolve position time series and velocities from carrier beat phases for all available data. Position time series were closely analyzed to estimate linear constant, coseismic displacements, postseismic motions, and other parameters. We present coseismic offsets inferred from the GPS data for the 2010 Yushu and 2014 Yutian earthquakes, and also illustrate transient postseismic motions following the 2001 Kokoxili, 2008 Wenchuan, and 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquakes. Since not all GPS position time series dominated by postseismic motions can be modeled and corrected reasonably, we present contemporary horizontal velocities from 2009 to 2014 for campaign stations and from 1998 to 2014 for continuous stations, irrespective of postseismic deformations. Our study concludes that we need to accumulate observations over a greater duration and apply accurate postseismic modeling to correct for transient displacement in order to resolve reasonable interseismic velocity.展开更多

It has also been shown that, the attenuation coefficient error is depending on both the nonparallelness angle of specimen faces and the ultrasonic frequency, but the velocity error is only depending on the former. Furthermore, for pure silica glass specimen it is estimated that, in VHF range in order to insure that the attenuation coefficient and velocity errors due to nonparallelness of specimen faces are less than 10% and 0.01%, respectively, the nonparallelness angle of specimen faces must be less than 10 s and 40 s correspondingly.展开更多

We re- view the velocity modeling and inversion techniques for locating microseismic events in exploration for unconventional oil and gas reservoirs. We first describe the geological and geophysical characteristics of reservoir formations related to hydraulic fracturing in heterogeneity, anisotropy, and variability, then discuss the influences of velocity estimation, anisotropy model, and their time-lapse changes on the accuracy in determining microseismic event locations, and then survey some typical methods for building velocity models in locating event locations. We conclude that the three tangled physical attributes of reservoirs make microseismic monitoring very challenging. The uncertainties in velocity model and ignoring its anisotropies and its variations in hydraulic fracturing can cause systematic mislocations of microseismie events which are unacceptable in microseismic monitoring. So, we propose some potential ways for building accurate velocity models.展开更多
