电感检测是对润滑油中金属磨粒进行检测的重要手段。为实现对船舶润滑油中磨粒更高流量、更大尺寸范围的检测,提出一种基于相分复用的双通道电感检测新方法。区别于传统方法,在不牺牲检测灵敏度的情况下,该方法仅利用一路信号输入和一路信号输出便可完成对两路油液的同时检测。阐述该方法的工作原理,即通过信号复制、移相、信号合成等过程,使两路传感器工作在不同的相位上,实现对两路油液同时检测的功能。在此基础上,搭建基于相分复用原理的双通道同时检测系统,并在两路传感器内径相同与不同的情况下,以74μm^88μm的铁颗粒为检测对象,验证该方法的可行性。传感器内径相同时,可确保在相同检测灵敏度的条件下,提高检测流量;传感器内径不同时,可检测不同尺寸范围的磨粒。

Implementation of a 6 GHz band TDD RF transceiver for the next generation mobile communication system

The development of a high performance wideband radio frequency （RF） transceiver used in the next generation mobile communication system is presented. The developed RF transceiver operates in the 6 to 6.3 GHz band and the channel bandwidth is up to 100 MHz. It operates in the time division duplex （TDD） mode and supports the multiple-input multipleoutput （MIMO） technique for the international mobile telecommunications （IMT）-advanced systems. The classical superheterodyne scheme is employed to achieve optimal performance. Design issues of the essential components such as low noise amplifier, power amplifier and local oscillators are described in detail. Measurement results show that the maximum linear output power of the RF transceiver is above 23 dBm, and the gain and noise figure of the low noise amplifier is around 24 dB and below 1 dB, respectively. Furthermore, the error vector magnitude （EVM） measurement shows that the performance of the developed RF transceiver is well beyond the requirements of the long term evolution （LTE）-advanced system. With up to 8 x 8 MIMO configuration, the RF transceiver supports more than a 1 Gbit/s data rate in field tests.

Performance Comparison of WDM Systems with Different Duty Cycle

The performances of nonlinear WDM systems with different duty cycle are compared by means of numerical simulation.The numerical results show that the optical pulse with duty cycle of 0.5 is superior to the conventional NRZ modulation scheme.The conclusion is different from that of some references.The reason is that inter symbol interference is not included in some references.In fact,inter symbol interference plays an important role in nonlinear WDM system.Although the larger the duty cycle is ,the stronger the effect of the cross-phase modulation and self-phase modulation on nonlinear WDM is,however,the larger the duty cycle is,the stronger the inter symbol interference is.

Antenna selection for V-BLAST systems in correlated channel

Spatial multiplexing systems can provide significant capacity improvement but are sensitive to channel correlation. Antenna selection is a low-cost low-complexity ahemative to resolve these problems. This paper proposes a new transmit antenna selection algorithm for the spatial multiplexing systems with the Vertical-Bell Labs Layered Space-Time （V-BLAST） nonlinear receiver in correlated channel. The proposed scheme separates the optimization into two parts： it first chooses the optimal number of substreams in terms of the singular values of the channel matrix, then adapts the mapping of substreams to antennas according to the post-detection signal-to-noise ratio （SNR）. Simulation results illustrate that the proposed two-step selection criterion can provide greater selection gain than the existing singnlar value based selection criterion as SNR and scattering angle increases. The proposed criterion outperforms the existing one by 0.3 dB at a vector symbol error rate of 10^- 3 and scattering angle of 20 degree.

A NOVEL SEMI-BLIND TIME-FREQUENCY DOMAIN TRACKING ALGORITHM SUITABLE FOR MPSK-OFDM

This paper presents a semi-blind tracking algorithm used for Multiple Phase Shift Keying based Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(MPSK-OFDM) system. By using special pream-bles to assist the decision of a feedback loop and to solve the problem of phase ambiguity,the tracking performance of the algorithm has been improved greatly. Only a few preambles are needed in the al-gorithm since the preambles are not used to estimate the frequency offset but used to provide the variation information of the phase due to the presence of frequency offset. Simulations verify that the algorithm has low SNR bound for tracking as well as high tracking accuracy and the tracking range is expanded to 30% of one subcarrier spacing.

A wavelength division multiplexer based on plastic surface-relief grating applied to local area communication network

A plastic surface-relief grating as a wavelength division multiplexer is designed and fabricated with the conventional mould pressing technique using the transmission-type fused quartz phase grating as mask pattern and polycarbonate as basal material.The experiment results show that in an optimizing process,the plastic surface-relief grating has the highest firstorder diffraction efficiency under adequate groove depth and incident angle,and can be used as the best optical path for wavelength division multiplexing(WDM).We also establish the experiment setup for testing the WDM performance of the plastic surface-relief grating based wavelength division multiplexer.The results show that the proposed wavelength division multiplexer has the high-stability temperature characteristics,the low insertion loss of less than 5 dB,the large isolation of greater than 20 dB,the low polarization-dependent loss(PDL) of less than 0.4 dB and the relatively steep pass-band characteristics.It is a WDM device with good performance,which can be applied in short distance communication.

Di- and tetranuclear heterometallic CuⅡ-LnⅢ complexes (Ln = Gd and Dy): Synthesis, structure and magnetic properties

Four 3d-4f heterometallic complexes, [CuⅡ-LnⅢ(bpt)2(NO3)3(MeOH)] (Ln = Gd, 1; Dy, 2; bptH = 3,5-bis(pyrid-2-yl)-l,2,4- triazole), [CuⅡ-LnⅢ(μ-OH)2(bpt)4C14 (H2O)2]·6H2O (Ln = Gd, 3; Dy, 4), have been synthesized under solvothermal condi- tions. X-ray structural analyses reveal that 1 and 2 are isostructural while 3 and 4 are isostructural. In each complex, the copper and gadolinium or dysprosium ions are linked by two triazolate bridges and form a CuⅡ-LnⅢ dinuclear unit. The intramolecu- lar Cu-Ln distances are 4.542, 4.525, 4.545 and 4.538 ] for 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively. Two dinuclear CuLn units are bridged by two OH- groups into the zig-zag tetranuclear {cunzLnm2} structures with the Ln(Ⅲ)...Ln(Ⅲ) distances of 3.742 and 3.684 for 3 and 4, respectively. Magnetic studies show that the antiferromagnetic CulI-Lnm interactions occur in 1 (Jcu = -0,21 cm-1) and 2. The antiferromagnetic interaction occurs in complex 3 with JcuGa = -0.82 cm-1 and JcdGd = --0.065 cm-1, while domi- nant ferromagnetic interaction occurs in complex 4.

Soil Aeration Variability as Affected by Reoxidation

The interplay between soil physical parameters during the recovery from anoxic stresses （reoxidation） is largely unrecognized. This study was conducted to chaxacterise the soil aeration status and derive correlations between variable aeration factors during reoxidation. Surface layers （0-30 cm） of three soil types, Haplic Phaeozem, Mollic Gleysol, and Eutric Cambisol （FAO soil group）, were selected for analysis. The moisture content was determined for a range of pF values （0, 1.5, 2.2, 2.7, and 3.2）, corresponding to the available water for microorganisms and plant roots. The variability of a number of soil aeration parameters, such as water potential （pF）, air-filled porosity （Eg）, oxygen diffusion rate （ODR）, and redox potential （Eh）, were investigated. These parameters were found to be interrelated in most cases. There were significant （P 〈 0.001） negative correlations of pF, Eg, and ODR with Eh. A decrease in water content as a consequence of soil reoxidation was manifested by an increase in the values of aeration factors in the soil environment. These results contributed to understanding of soil redox processes during recovery from flooding and might be useful for development of agricultural techniques aiming at soil reoxidation and soil fertility optimisation.

Standard-independent I/Q imbalance estimation and compensation scheme in OFDM direct-conversion transceivers

Direct-conversion transceivers are gaining increasing attention due to their low power consumption. However, they suffer from a serious in- and quadrature-phase （I/Q） imbalance problem. The I/Q imbalance can severely limit the achievable operating signal-to-noise ratio （SNR） at the receiver and, consequently, the supported constellation sizes and data rates. In this paper, we first investigate the effects of I/Q imbalance on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing （OFDM） receivers, and then propose a new I/Q imbalance compensation scheme. In the proposed method, a new statistic, which is robust against channel distortion, is used to estimate the I/Q imbalance parameters, and then the I/Q imbalance is corrected in the frequency domain. Simulations are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method for I/Q imbalance compensation. The results show that the proposed I/Q imbalance compensation method can achieve bit error rate （BER） performance close to that in the ideal case without I/Q imbalance in additive white Gaussian noise （AWGN） or multipath environments. Furthermore, because no pilot information is required, this method can be applied in various standard communication systems.

A code-aided carrier synchronization algorithm based on improved nonbinary low-density parity-check codes

In order to further improve the carrier synchronization estimation range and accuracy at low signal-to-noise ratio(SNR), this paper proposes a code-aided carrier synchronization algorithm based on improved nonbinary low-density parity-check(NB-LDPC) codes to study the polarization-division-multiplexing coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(PDM-CO-OFDM) system performance in the cases of quadrature phase shift keying(QPSK) and 16 quadrature amplitude modulation(16-QAM) modes. The simulation results indicate that this algorithm can enlarge frequency and phase offset estimation ranges and enhance accuracy of the system greatly, and the bit error rate(BER) performance of the system is improved effectively compared with that of the system employing traditional NB-LDPC code-aided carrier synchronization algorithm.
