Calibration of parallel kinematics machine using generalized distance error model

This paper focus on the accuracy enhancement of parallel kinematics machine through kinematics calibration. In the calibration processing, well-structured identification Jacobian matrix construction and end-effector position and orientation measurement are two main difficulties. In this paper, the identification Jacobian matrix is constructed easily by numerical calculation utilizing the unit virtual velocity method. The generalized distance errors model is presented for avoiding measuring the position and orientation directly which is difficult to be measured. At last, a measurement tool is given for acquiring the data points in the calibration processing. Experimental studies confirmed the effectiveness of method. It is also shown in the paper that the proposed approach can be applied to other typed parallel manipulators.

On error distance of Reed-Solomon codes

The complexity of decoding the standard Reed-Solomon code is a well known open prob-lem in coding theory. The main problem is to compute the error distance of a received word. Using the Weil bound for character sum estimate, we show that the error distance can be determined precisely when the degree of the received word is small. As an application of our method, we give a significant improvement of the recent bound of Cheng-Murray on non-existence of deep holes (words with maximal error distance).

A 3-D Polarization Quadrature Amplitude Modulation Method and Constellation Mapping

As a new three-dimensional(3-D)modulation,Polarization Quadrature Amplitude Modulation(PQAM) can be regarded as the combination of Pulse amplitude modulation(PAM) and Quadrature Amplitude Modulation(QAM) Modulation.It can better improve the digital communication efficiency and reduce the Symbol error rate(SER) of the system than one-dimensional or two-dimensional modulation scheme.How to design a feasible constellation is the most concerned problem of PQAM currently.This paper first studies the relationship between the SER theoretical value of PQAM and the distribution of M and N,proposes a new M,N allocation scheme.Secondly,a new and straightforward design method of constructing higher-level 3-D signal constellations,which can be matched with the PQAM,and the constellation can divided into three different structures according to the ary for PQAM.Finally,the simulation results show that:in PQAM system,the modulation scheme and the constellation mapping scheme are proposed in this paper which can effectively reduce the system SER and improve the anti-noise performance of the system.

Forgery Detection Using Inconsistent Reflection Vanishing Point

The rapid development of image processing techniques has made it extremely easy to alter the content of images or create newimages.So photographs,which appear in magazines,social media,and political attacks,can no longer be trusted.A novel and effective technique is proposed in this paper to expose image forgery using inconsistent reflection vanishing point(RVP).More specifically,the definition of error distance is given,sin^2()-based function is proposed to normalize error distance,and a reasonable threshold value is set to detect image forgery.The experimental data and results are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and effectiveness of the technique.

On Reed-Solomon Codes

The complexity of decoding the standard Reed-Solomon code is a well-known open problem in coding theory.The main problem is to compute the error distance of a received word.Using the Weil bound for character sum estimate,Li and Wan showed that the error distance can be determined when the degree of the received word as a polynomial is small.In the first part,the result of Li and Wan is improved.On the other hand,one of the important parameters of an error-correcting code is the dimension.In most cases,one can only get bounds for the dimension.In the second part,a formula for the dimension of the generalized trace Reed-Solomon codes in some cases is obtained.

Optimal guidance of extended trajectory shaping

To control missile＇s miss distance as well as terminal impact angle, by involving the timeto-go-nth power in the cost function, an extended optimal guidance law against a constant maneuvering target or a stationary target is proposed using the linear quadratic optimal control theory.An extended trajectory shaping guidance（ETSG） law is then proposed under the assumption that the missile-target relative velocity is constant and the line of sight angle is small. For a lag-free ETSG system, closed-form solutions for the missile＇s acceleration command are derived by the method of Schwartz inequality and linear simulations are performed to verify the closed-form results. Normalized adjoint systems for miss distance and terminal impact angle error are presented independently for stationary targets and constant maneuvering targets, respectively. Detailed discussions about the terminal misses and impact angle errors induced by terminal impact angle constraint, initial heading error, seeker zero position errors and target maneuvering, are performed.
