CPT consists of pushing at a constant rate an electronic cone into penetrable soils and recording the resistance to the cone tip (q<sub>c</sub> value). The measured q<sub>c</sub> values (after correction for the pore water pressure) are utilized to estimate soil type and associated soil properties based predominantly on empirical correlations. The most common cone tips have associated areas of 10 cm<sup>2</sup> and 15 cm<sup>2</sup>. Investigators also utilized significantly larger cone tips (33 cm<sup>2</sup> and 40 cm<sup>2</sup>) so that gravelly soils can be penetrated. Small cone tips (2 cm<sup>2</sup> and 5 cm<sup>2</sup>) are utilized for shallow soil investigations. The cone tip resistance measured at a particular depth is affected by the values above and below the depth of interest which results in a smoothing or blurring of the true bearing values. Extensive work has been carried out in mathematically modelling the smoothing function which results in the blurred cone bearing measurements. This paper outlines a technique which facilitates estimating the dominant parameters of the cone smoothing function from processing real cone bearing data sets. This cone calibration technique is referred to as the so-called CPSPE algorithm. The mathematical details of the CPSPE algorithm are outlined in this paper along with the results from a challenging test bed simulation.展开更多

The adaptive broadband beamformer with tapped delay line （TDL） structure for nonuniform linear array （NLA） is designed according to the rule of minimizing the beamformer＇s output power while keeping the distortionless response （DR） in the direction of desired signal and keeping the constant beamwidth （CB） with the prescribed sidelobe level over the whole operating band. This kind of beamforming problem can be solved with the interior-point method after being converted to the form of standard second order cone programming （SOCP）. The computer simulations are presented which illustrate the effectiveness of our beamformer.展开更多
