Pre-Compensation for Continuous-Path Running Trajectory Error in High-Speed Machining of Parts with Varied Curvature Features

Parts with varied curvature features play increasingly critical roles in engineering, and are often machined under high-speed continuous-path running mode to ensure the machining efficiency. However, the continuous-path running trajectory error is significant during high-feed-speed machining, which seriously restricts the machining precision for such parts with varied curvature features. In order to reduce the continuous-path running trajectory error without sacrificing the machining efficiency, a pre-compensation method for the trajectory error is proposed. Based on the formation mechanism of the continuous-path running trajectory error analyzed, this error is estimated in advance by approximating the desired toolpath with spline curves. Then, an iterative error pre-compensation method is presented. By machining with the regenerated toolpath after pre-compensation instead of the uncompensated toolpath, the continuous-path running trajectory error can be effectively decreased without the reduction of the feed speed. To demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed pre-compensation method, a heart curve toolpath that possesses varied curvature features is employed. Experimental results indicate that compared with the uncompensated processing trajectory, the maximum and average machining errors for the pre-compensated processing trajectory are reduced by 67.19% and 82.30%, respectively. An easy to implement solution for high efficiency and high precision machining of the parts with varied curvature features is provided.

Deformation pre-compensated optimization design of cam ring for low pulsation hydraulic motors

Cam-lobe radial-piston hydraulic motors are widely used in large machinery due to their excellent capability to withstand high loading at low speed.However,the line contact between the roller and cam ring generates elastic deformation of the cam ring under high loading,leading to obvious speed and torque pulsations and even the detrimental crawl problem of hydraulic motors.To address this issue,we propose a deformation pre-compensated optimization design approach to compensate for the cam ring deformation in advance,thereby eliminating the influence of cam ring deformation on the hydraulic motor’s pulsation.In this approach,the design process is divided into two steps:first,the overall profile of the cam ring is optimized based on the calculated elastic deformation;second,the local profile of cam ring is further optimized until the hydraulic motor’s pulsations no longer reduce.Finally,a case study is carried out to verify the effectiveness of this approach.The result indicates the pulsation rate of a deformation pre-compensated cam ring is 40%lower than that of an uncompensated one.This study offers an easy and feasible way to design an optimized cam ring profile for low pulsation hydraulic motors.

Random access preamble design based on time pre-compensation for LTE-satellite system

Because of the integration of long term evolution （LTE） technology and mobile satellite communication systems, uplink access technology for LTE-based geo-stationary earth orbit （GEO） satellite has become a popular research topic for satellite system. In order to solve the problem of unreasonable design for physical random access channel （PRACH） signal structure and reduce the effect of time uncertainty, this paper proposes a novel random access preamble based on time pre-compensation （TPC） for LTE-Satellite （LTE-S） system. In this scheme, by applying the method of non-linear least squares, the user terminal （UT） can use and based on the transmission delay the receiving power to estimate the communication round trip delay （RTD） of the beam center and the satellite, RTD can be compensated before transmission. Therefore, the preamble length and duration can be reduced without related to the maximum of RTD. In order to verify the performance of the scheme, the MATLAB is used to build a test system. The simulation results show that the proposed preamble satisfies the requirements of LTE-S system, and the better performance than previous researches is obtained.

Investigation on the pre-compensation and post-compensation cascaded multi-channel-chirped fiber Bragg gratings for a repeaterless transmission system

We experimentally designed dispersion-managed repeaterless transmission systems with a pre-compensation and post-compensation technique using multi-channel-chirped fiber Bragg gratings. The repeaterless transmission link supports a single channel（1548.51 nm） with a 10 Gbps repeaterless transmission system over 300 km standard single-mode fiber（SSMF）. In the system design, two distributed Raman amplifiers（DRAs） were used to improve the signal level propagated along the 300 km SSMF. The co-propagating DRA provided 15 dB on–off gain and the counter-propagating produced 32 dB on–off gain at the signal wavelength. The experiment results show that the post-compensation configuration achieves an optimal performance with a bit error rate at 1 × 10-9.
