The relevant system architectures of limited range and limited number of wavelength converters(WCs) deployed by a share-per-fiber(SPF) mode were developed,and the novel theoretical analysis of node blocking probability was derived by combining the calculation of discouraged arrival rate in a birth-death process and two-dimensional Markov chain model of SPF. The simulation results on single node performance verify the accuracy and effectiveness of the analysis models. Under most scenarios,it is difficult to distinguish the plots generated by the analysis and simulation. As the conversion degree increases,the accuracy of the analysis model worsens slightly. However,the utmost error on burst loss probability is far less than one order of magnitude and hence,still allows for an accurate estimate. Some results are of actual significance to the construction of next-generation commercial OBS backbones.展开更多

An interesting alternative to DC machines for the supply of DC grids is constituted by a three-phase alternator feeding an AC/DC rectifier. In this paper, alternative solutions are investigated where the AC alternator is equipped with more (iV) three-phase windings and feeds the DC load through more (N) cascade-connected rectifiers. The advantages of this solution with respect to the conventional three-phase topology are highlighted along with their dependence on the number (N) of the alternator windings. For this purpose, test results are reported and discussed on a prototype generator whose stator coils can be differently connected to obtained one, two, three or four windings. The major benefits (in terms of DC output current quality and field current ripple) are found when passing from the three-phase solution to the dual winding topology; conversely, relatively little advantage is gained by increasing the number of stator windings above two.展开更多

A facile in situ cation exchange strategy has been developed to greatly enhance the UC luminescence of hexagonal phase NaYF4 NPs while maintaining their small particle size and shape. Via a cation exchange treatment by hot-injecting Gd3+ precursors into the as-prepared NPs solution without pre-separation, the naked-eye visible UC emission of the NPs was enhanced about 29 times under 980 nm near infrared (NIR) excitation with unchanged particle size. The cation exchange process was further demonstrated for the case of NaYF4 nanorods (NRs). After the cation exchange, the nanorod was broken into two NPs with stronger emission.
