Spectrum Occupancy Measurement and Analysis

This paper analyzes current spectrum utilization from all aspects based on related methods of spectrum measurement. The measurement results show that some spectrum resources are not used effectively due to current fixed spectrum allocation policy, and the spectrum occupancy varies dramatically in terms of time and space. These results provide basis for the development of next generation wireless communication technologies such as Cognitive Radio (CR).

Measurement of the Plasma Rotation Velocity by Using Visible Spectrum on HL-1M Mokamak

The plasma rotation velocity were measured in HL-1M with Doppler shifts of CⅢ、 C Ⅱ、 O Ⅱ and H. line by a SKD high resolution spectrometer. The effects .of density' hydrogen pellet injection and carbon impurities injected by laser-blow-off on toroidal(V) and poloidal (Vθ)rotation velocity have been observed. The Vθ measured from H. line is only half of that from C Ⅱ impurity line.

Flotation evaluation and adsorption mechanism of medialan collector to wolframite

Medialan has preferable flotation performance to wolframite,under the conditions of the best flotation pH value 7.0 and low dosage,wolframite recovery is up to80%.Medialan shows poor flotation performance to quartz,but better to fluorite and calcite.However,fluorite and calcite are inhibited in a certain degree by adding medialan mixed with sodium silicate.Adsorption mechanism of medialan collector on wolfram surface was also studied by using infrared(IR)radiation spectrum,adsorption volume,and zeta potential.The results show that medialan can adsorb on wolfram surface in the form of chemistry adsorption,and as medialan collector dosage changes,change law of adsorption volume is similar with that of wolfram pure mineral flotation.Zeta potential results prove that zeta potential of wolfram surface moves negatively after adsorbing medialan collector.

Measurement of integral diffraction coefficients of crystals on beamline 4B7 of Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facility

Integral diffraction coefficients of the crystal are the essential data of a crystal spectrometer which is extensively used to measure quantitative x-ray spectra of high temperature plasmas in kilo-electron-volt region. An experimental method has been developed to measure the integral diffraction coefficients of crystals on beamline 4B7 of Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facility. The integral diffraction coefficients of several crystals including polyethylene terephthalate （PET）, thallium acid phthalate （T1AP） and rubidium acid phthalate （RAP） crystals have been measured in the x-ray energy range 2100-5600 eV and compared with the calculations of the ＇Darwin Prins＇ and the ＇Mosaic＇ models. It is shown that the integral diffraction coefficients of these crystals are between the calculations of the ＇Darwin Prins＇ and the ＇Mosaic＇ models, but more close to the ＇Darwin Prins＇ model calculations.

Quantitative spectrum occupancy evaluation in China: based on a large scale concurrent spectrum measurement

Due to the usable frequency becomes more and more crowed, dynamic spectrum access （DSA） is a new hope to solve this problem. However, DSA in China requires a quantitative analysis of the current spectrum utilization in frequency, temporal and spatial domains. In order to free the precious spectrum, spectrum regulation organizations must have a clear, detailed, up-to-date understanding of where, how and by whom spectrum is currently being used--such data is essential to sound policy decisions in the context of cognitive radio （CR）. In this paper, a concurrent spectrum occupancy measurement in south China was conducted to evaluate the practical spectrum occupancy with a digital wideband receiver covering from 20 MHz to 3 GHz. We also propose systemic spectrum measurement methodology, matrix format data storage, duty cycle （DC） evaluation metric and data mining process which can be a guideline for other researchers when they conduct the similar experiments. Quantitative analysis and characterization of the 4 different measurement locations are evaluated to promote the popularization of CR application in China. And a uniform Beta distribution channel occupancy model is also validated using real-scene measurement data. The experimental results demonstrate that there is a significant scope for license-exemption use of the released spectrum using CR technology.

A digital energy spectroscopy based on FIR filter

We designed a universal digital energy spectroscopy based on online digital signal processing. A prototype system was built and tested. Signals from radiation detectors were processed via a digital filter whose coefficients could be modified without changing the hardware. The paper introduces the hardware design of the digital energy spectroscopy system as well as the full set of software consisting of the selection of the coefficients of the finite impulse response (FIR) filter and the coding in the field-programmable gate array (FPGA). The system was tested with the high purity germanium (HPGe) detector. The results showed that this prototype can achieve an energy resolution close to that of a traditional multi-channel analyzer (MCA) with a much higher counting rate.

A fast digital timing and analysis system based on real-time dCFD technique for nuclear physics experiments

In this paper a fast digital real-time spectrometer was developed for timing and analysis of nuclear pulse signals. The hardware system design and algorithm implementation with field-programming gate array （FPGA） and digital signal processor （DSP） were introduced. The performance of the digital constant fraction discrimination （dCFD） platform was experimentally tested with Agilent 80 MHz function/arbitrary waveform generator and LaC13：Ce3＋ scintillator detector for 22Na positron annihilation gamma spectroscopy. The amplitude and time information of ＂/photon was online obtained. The energy resolution could be 5.525% and the timing resolution 293.75 ps, the system error estimation of dCFD approach was also studied. The results showed that this spectrometer achieved a timing resolution close to that of traditional CFD timing resolution with a more sim- plified system structure.

Dynamic ordering transitions in charged solid

The phenomenon of group motion is common in nature,ranging from the schools of fish,birds and insects,to avalanches,landslides and sand drift.If we treat objects as collectively moving particles,such phenomena can be studied from a physical point of view,and the research on many-body systems has proved that marvelous effects can arise from the simplest individuals.The motion of numerous individuals presents different dynamic phases related to the ordering of the system.However,it is usually difficult to study the dynamic ordering and its transitions through experiments.Electron bubble states formed in a two-dimensional electron gas,as a type of electron solids,can be driven by an external electric field and provide a platform to study the dynamic collective behaviors.Here,we demonstrate that the noise spectrum is a powerful method to investigate the dynamics of bubble states.We observed not only the phenomena of dynamically ordered and disordered structures,but also unexpected alternations between them.Our results show that a dissipative system can convert between chaotic structures and ordered structures when tuning global parameters,which is concealed in conventional transport measurements of resistance or conductance.Moreover,charging the objects to study the electrical noise spectrum in collective motions can be an additional approach to revealing dynamic ordering transitions.
