The non-linear effect in the linear calibration curve induces a deviation of 1.5 degrees (k) of brightness temperature in the tenth channel (8.3 um, water vapor absorption) of the HIRS/2 and the non-linear effect affects the other channels to a different extent. Based on analyzing non- linearity in two-point calibration curve, a tri-point calibration equation is given. A numerical test of effects of the linear and non-linear calibration models on the accuracy of atmospheric temperature retrievals is carried out.展开更多

The propagation delay is assumed to be gamma distributed. The generalized Cramer–Rao lower bound for multipath propagation is derived as the theoretical accuracy limitation. The performance of the positioning system is affected by the shape parameter and the scale parameter of gamma distribution.The influences on positioning accuracy of multipath effects are analyzed through discussing the physical meaning of the gamma distribution parameters. It is concluded that the lower bound of positioning accuracy is attained when variance of the non-line-of-sight propagation-induced path lengths is zero. The simulation result provesthat the theoretical positioning accuracy is in the order of centimeters with the given scenario.展开更多

This work investigates the effect of tile time bin size oil the range accuracy of STIL systems based on the peak detection algorithm. The nunlerical simulation indicates that the time bin size has a significant effect on the range aceuracy, resulting in a modified analytical estimate of the range error. An indoor experilnent with a planar target is carried out to validate the theory that shows the linear relationship between tile range error and the time bin size. Finer 3D depth iinages of a fist model are acquired by using a smaller time bin size and the best range error of 0.003 In is achieved with the optimal time bin size of 0.07 ns.展开更多
