Traditional Radio Frequency Identification(RFID) technologies are very popular in this area since their cost is very low. In such technologies, each tag acts as the transmitter and the Radio Signal Strength Indicator(RSSI) information is measured from the readers. However, RSSI information suffers severely from the multi- path phenomenon. As a result, if in a very large area, the localization accuracy will be affected seriously. In order to solve this problem, we introduce Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs) with only a few nodes, each of which acts as both transmitter and receiver. In such networks, the change of signal strength(referred as dynamic of RSSI) is leveraged to select a cluster of reference tags as candidates. Then the fi nal target location is estimated by using the RSSI relationships between the target tag and candidate reference tags. Thus, the localization accuracy and scalability are able to be improved. We proposed two algorithms, SA-LANDMARC, and COCKTAIL. Experiments show that the localization accuracy of the two algorithms can reach 0.7m and 0.45 m, respectively. Compared to most traditional Radio Frequency(RF)-based approaches, the localization accuracy is improved at least 50%.展开更多

The success rate of percutaneous ablation therapy for HCC depends on correct targeting of the tumor via an imaging technique. However, probe insertion often is not completely accurate for small HCC nodules, which are poorly def ined on conventional B-mode ultrasound (US) alone. Thus, multiple sessions of ablation therapy are frequently required in diffi cult cases. By means of two breakthroughs in US technology, harmonic imaging and the development of second-generation contrast agents, dynamic contrast-enhanced harmonic US imaging with an intravenous contrast agent can depict tumor vascularity sensitively and accurately, and is able to evaluate small hypervascular HCCs even when B-mode US cannot adequately characterize the tumors. Therefore, dynamic contrast-enhanced US can facilitate RFA electrode placement in hypervascular HCC, which is poorly depicted by B-mode US. The use of dynamic contrast-enhanced US guidance in ablation therapy for liver cancer is an effi cient approach. Here, we present an overview of the current status of dynamic contrast-enhanced US-guided ablation therapy, and summarize the current indications and outcomes of reported clinical use in comparison with that of other modalities.展开更多

The result indicates that the noise source intensity surpasses the noise limit requirement of 85 dBA completely. Nearly 70% noise sources exceed the noise limit of 90 dBA, and some are over 100 dBA. Noise attenua- tion in semi-free field environment on the ground is significantly different from underground far-field environment of noise source in coal mines. Noise of these regions, where staffs are long and highly concentrated, exceeds 85 dBA, the basic noise limit. The noise frequency-spectrum presents the wideband characteristics. Especially in the main frequency of the language communication 500, 1 000 and 2 000 Hz, the octave band of noise performs obviously.展开更多

The correlation between the temporal profiles of the radiation intensity and Doppler shift for each emission line are analyzed. And three small regions with positive correlations for all the five emission lines are selected for a detailed analysis. In this work, Doppler blue （red） shift is defined as negative （positive）. We find that in Region 1, the radiation intensity （Doppler velocity） decreases by about 15% （about 3 km s-X）, and logarithmical differential emission measures （lg（DEMs）） reduces by about 0.06-0.10% at all temperatures, called ＂weak dimming＂, during a 30-min interval. In Region 2 and Region 3, however, the radiation intensity （Doppler velocity） increases by about 15% （about 3 km s-l）, and lg（DEMs） increases by about 0.06%~0.10% at all tempera- tures, called ＂weak brightening＂. Such weak dimming （weak brightening） could reflect a slow draining （replenishing） of plas- ma in the solar wind flux tubes, possibly due to a larger （smaller） outflow flux at high altitude than at low altitude. These sug- gest that the plasma supply could be intermittent with an alternation of draining and replenishing, for which the underlying physical process is yet unknown, at the source region of slow/intermediate solar wind.展开更多
