Ultrahigh spatiotemporal resolution beam signal reconstruction with bunch phase compensation

Various electromagnetic signals are excited by the beam in the acceleration and beam-diagnostic elements of a particle accelerator.It is important to obtain time-domain waveforms of these signals with high temporal resolution for research,such as the study of beam–cavity interactions and bunch-by-bunch parameter measurements.Therefore,a signal reconstruction algorithm with ultrahigh spatiotemporal resolution and bunch phase compensation based on equivalent sampling is proposed in this paper.Compared with traditional equivalent sampling,the use of phase compensation and setting the bunch signal zero-crossing point as the time reference can construct a more accurate reconstructed signal.The basic principles of the method,simulation,and experimental comparison are also introduced.Based on the beam test platform of the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility(SSRF)and the method of experimental verification,the factors that affect the reconstructed signal quality are analyzed and discussed,including the depth of the sampled data,quantization noise of analog-to-digital converter,beam transverse oscillation,and longitudinal oscillation.The results of the beam experiments show that under the user operation conditions of the SSRF,a beam excitation signal with an amplitude uncertainty of 2%can be reconstructed.

Microwave frequency transfer over a 112-km urban fiber link based on electronic phase compensation

We demonstrate the transmission of a microwave frequency signal at 10 GHz over a 112-km urban fiber link based on a novel simple-architecture electronic phase compensation system.The key element of the system is the low noise frequency divider by 4 to differentiate the frequency of the forward signal from that of the backward one,thus suppressing the effect of Brillouin backscattering and parasitic reflection along the link.In terms of overlapping Allan deviation,the frequency transfer instability of 4.2×10-15 at 1-s integration time and 1.6×10-18 at one-day integration time was achieved.In addition,its sensitivity to the polarization mode dispersion in fiber is analyzed by comparing the results with and without laser polarization scrambling.Generally,with simplicity and robustness,the system can offer great potentials in constructing cascaded frequency transfer system and facilitate the building of fiber-based microwave transfer network.

Phase Error Compensation of Three-Dimensional Reconstruction Combined with Hilbert Transform

Nonlinear response is an important factor affecting the accuracy of three-dimensional image measurement based on the fringe structured light method.A phase compensation algorithm combined with a Hilbert transform is proposed to reduce the phase error caused by the nonlinear response of a digital projector in the three-dimensional measurement system of fringe structured light.According to the analysis of the influence of Gamma distortion on the phase calculation,the algorithm establishes the relationship model between phase error and harmonic coefficient,introduces phase shift to the signal,and keeps the signal amplitude constant while filtering out the DC component.The phase error is converted to the transform domain,and compared with the numeric value in the space domain.The algorithm is combined with a spiral phase function to optimize the Hilbert transform,so as to eliminate external noise,enhance the image quality,and get an accurate phase value.Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively improve the accuracy and speed of phase measurement.By performing phase error compensation for free-form surface objects,the phase error is reduced by about 26%,and about 27%of the image reconstruction time is saved,which further demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of the method.

Phase diagrams in mixed spin-3/2 and spin-2 Ising system with two alternative layers within the effective-field theory

The phase diagrams in the mixed spin-3/2 and spin-2 Ising system with two alternative layers on a honeycomb lattice are investigated and discussed by the use of the effective-field theory with correlations. The interaction of the nearest-neighbour spins of each layer is taken to be positive （ferromagnetic interaction） and the interaction of the adjacent spins of the nearest-neighbour layers is considered to be either positive or negative （ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic interaction）. The temperature dependence of the layer magnetizations of the system is examined to characterize the nature （continuous or discontinuous） of the phase transitions and obtain the phase transition temperatures. The system exhibits both second- and first-order phase transitions besides triple point （TP）, critical end point （E）, multicritical point （A）, isolated critical point （C） and reentrant behaviour depending on the interaction parameters. We have also studied the temperature dependence of the total magnetization to find the compensation points, as well as to determine the type of behaviour, and N-type behaviour in Neel classification nomenclature existing in the system. The phase diagrams are constructed in eight different planes and it is found that the system also presents the compensation phenomena depending on the sign of the bilinear exchange interactions.

A convenient look-up-table based method for the compensation of non-linear error in digital fringe projection

Although the structured light system that uses digital fringe projection has been widely implemented in three-dimensional surface profile measurement, the measurement system is susceptible to non-linear error. In this work, we propose a convenient look-up-table-based （LUT-based） method to compensate for the non-linear error in captured fringe patterns. Without extra calibration, this LUT-based method completely utilizes the captured fringe pattern by recording the full-field differences. Then, a phase compensation map is established to revise the measured phase. Experimental results demonstrate that this method works effectively.

Methods to Improve the Long Distance Time-Varying Channel Transmission Performance of Expendable Profiler

To improve the transmission performance of XCTD channel, this paper proposes a method to measure directly and fit the channel transmission characteristics by using frequency sweeping method. Sinusoidal signals with a frequency range of 100 Hz to 10 k Hz and an interval of 100 Hz are used to measure transmission characteristics of channels with lengths of 300 m, 800 m, 1300 m, and 1800 m. The correctness of the fitted channel characteristics by transmitting square wave, composite waves of different frequencies, and ASK modulation are verified. The results show that when the frequency of the signal is below 1500 Hz, the channel has very little effect on the signal. The signal compensated for amplitude and phase at the receiver is not as good as the uncompensated signal.Alternatively, when the signal frequency is above 1500 Hz, the channel distorts the signal. The quality of signal compensated for amplitude and phase at receiver is better than that of the uncompensated signal. Thus, we can select the appropriate frequency for XCTD system and the appropriate way to process the received signals. Signals below1500 Hz can be directly used at the receiving end. Signals above 1500 Hz are used after amplitude and phase compensation at the receiving end.

Passive phase noise compensation for fiber-optic radio frequency transfer with a nonsynchronized source

We propose a passive compensation fiber-optic radio frequency（RF） transfer scheme with a nonsynchronized RF stable source during a round-trip time, which can avoid high-precision phase-locking and efficiently suppress the effect of backscattering only using two wavelengths at the same time. A stable frequency signal is directly reproduced by frequency mixing at the remote site. The proposed scheme is validated by the experiment over a 40 km single mode fiber spool using nonsynchronized common commercial RF sources. The influence of the stability of nonsynchronized RF sources on the frequency transfer is investigated over different length fiber links.

Analysis of CFO effects on and phase compensation method for SC-FDMA systems

Discrete Fourier transform spread orthogonal frequency division multiplexing （DFT-S-OFDM） based single carrier-frequency division multiple access （SC-FDMA） is accepted as the uplink transmission scheme by the 3GPP-Iong term evolution standardization organization. In this paper, the effects of carrier frequency offset （CFO） on DFT-S-OFDM system are analyzed for both single user and multiple user accessing scenarios. According to the analysis, the CFO results in the attenuation, linear phase rotation, inter-symbol interference （ISI） and inter-sub-carrier interference （ICI） on the demodulated symbols of each desired user, and the multi-user interference （MUI） among upiink users. The theoretical values of ISI, ICl, and signal to interference ratio （SIR） are presented for the DFT-S-OFDM system with full and partial bandwidth detection respectively. A phase compensation method is proposed to reduce the effect of linear phase rotation on the demodulated symbols. Finally, the analytical values are verified by the simulation results.

Some simulation results on computer and experimental results in the test tank using the proposed algorithm are given as well.

Improving coherent averaging line spectrum detection with phase interpolation and compensation

For the purpose of resolving the problem of performance deterioration introduced by inaccurate phase compensation in existing coherent averaging line spectrum detectors, a modified coherent detector is proposed. The three point interpolation in frequency domain is applied to obtain accurate estimate of phase difference between segments when the segmented length is not an integral multiple of the signal period. Then the segmented data are multiplied by a complex coefficient to remove the phase difference and synchronize the phases of all the segments before coherent averaging. Theoretical analysis shows that there will be a gain of 3.9 dB at most by using the modified detector. The detection performance of the incoher- ent averaging power spectrum detector （AVGPR）, the phase coherent averaging detector, the modified coherent averaging detector are compared with each other by computer simulations. The results coincide basically with the theoretical analysis, which show the superiority of the modified detector to the former two detectors.

Impedance-based Stability Criterion for the Stable Evaluation of Grid-connected Inverter Systems with Distributed Parameter Lines

For a multi-inverter grid-connected system,the stability of the point of common coupling(PCC)voltage is evaluated considering the distribution parameters of the transmission lines.First,the systems on both sides of the PCC are equalized,a smallsignal equivalent circuit similar to the“current source-grid”is established,and a mathematical model for the voltage of the PCC is derived.Then,using Euler’s formula and Nyquist stability criterion,the PCC voltage stability of the grid-connected system is evaluated by the impedance analysis method under the premise that the single-side excitation is stable.In addition,the gridconnected conditions causing PCC voltage instability are studied.A phase compensation method based on an impedance phase compensation control strategy is introduced.The stability of the grid-connected system is improved by compensating the phase margin at the equivalent impedance crossover-section frequency on both sides of the grid-connected system PCC.Finally,a simulation circuit is built to simulate and analyze the proposed model and phase compensation method.The simulation results verify the accuracy and effectiveness of the theoretical analysis.

Control Method for Additional Damper in Hydro-turbine Speed Governor of Hydro-dominant Power Systems

With the rapid development of the national interconnected power grid,fast automatic excitation regulators and fast turbine governors are being widely used.In the current systems,some power plants adjust their responses for turbine governor systems to a very sensitive level to meet the primary frequency regulation assessment index,which actively brings about negative damping.Under these circumstances,the ultralow frequency oscillation(ULFO)phenomenon emerged in hydrodominant power systems.In order to solve the problem of ULFO,the hydro-turbine governor additional damper(GAD)based on phase compensation,which adapts to ULFO,is developed.The design of the control system is relatively simple.As a phase compensation based on the field testing and modeling of the turbine governor,GAD can provide the power system with positive damping,which contributes to the stability and security of the system.According to the impact of the mechanism of the turbine governor on the dynamic stability of the power system and the research of modeling and parametric testing,the proposed method not only supports positive damping,but also eliminates the negative damping of the speed governing system,which can significantly suppress the ultralow frequency oscillation and make it feasible to configure the GAD parameters according to field testing.

Digital coding transmissive metasurface for multi-OAM-beam

Orbital angular momentum(OAM)is a phenomenon of vortex phase distribution in free space,which has attracted enormous attention in theoretical research and practical application of wireless communication systems due to its characteristic of infinitely orthogonal modes.However,traditional methods generating OAM beams are bound to complex structure,large device,multiple layers,complex feed networks,and limited beams in microwave range.Here,a digital coding transmissive metasurface(DCTMS)with a single layer substrate and the bi-symmetrical arrow is proposed and designed to generate multi-OAM-beam based on Pancharatnam–Berry(PB)phase principle.The 3-bit phase response can be realized by encoding the geometric phase into rotation angle of unit cell for DCTMS.Additionally,the phase compensation of the metasurface is introduced to achieve the beam focusing and the conversion from spherical wave to plane wave.According to the digital convolution theorem,the far-field patterns and near-field distributions of multi-OAM-beam with l=–2 modes are adequately demonstrated by DCTMS prototypes.The OAM efficiency and the purity are calculated to demonstrate the excellent multiOAM-beam.The simulated and experimental results illustrate their performance of OAM beams.The designed DCTMS has profound application in multi-platform wireless communication systems and the multi-channel imaging systems.
