A NEW MODULATION SCHEME FOR IR-UWB COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS

Since the poor performance of orthogonal binary Pulse Position Modulation (PPM) compared with binary Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM), this paper presents a new modulation scheme named Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for Impulse Radio Ultra-WideBand (IR-UWB) communication systems. This modulation scheme uses pulses with equal amplitude and different widths to carry different information. The receiver employs differences between similarity coefficients among these pulses to distinguish different information. Both theoretical analysis and simulation results verify that this novel scheme has a Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) gain of about 1.75 dB compared with or- thogonal binary PPM, and has an SNR loss of about 1.4 dB compared with binary PAM. Although both the theoretical analysis and simulations are based on time-hopping multiple access, this modulation scheme can also be applied to other accessing techniques of UWB communication systems.

焊接工艺对DP780钢板焊缝形貌和组织性能的影响

为降低车身重量,提高装配精度,近年来汽车用先进高强钢板大量采用拼焊工艺。采用固体脉冲Nd:YAD激光发生器对DP780钢板进行拼焊焊接,借助金相显微镜、扫描电镜、能谱分析仪等手段,研究了不同脉冲频率、脉冲宽幅、焊接电压对DP780拼焊板焊缝形貌和组织性能的影响。结果表明:脉冲频率从8 Hz增加到15 Hz时,焊缝表面更为光滑,组织中贝氏体含量逐渐增多,马氏体含量逐渐减少;脉冲宽幅从8 ms增加到15 ms时,焊缝的宽度逐渐增大,而且热影响区的范围也在逐渐增大,组织中马氏体含量逐渐增多,贝氏体含量逐渐减少;焊接电压从250 V增加到280 V时,焊缝缺陷逐渐增多,热影响区和焊缝宽度逐渐增加,组织中贝氏体含量逐渐增多、马氏体含量逐渐减少。焊接电压对焊缝形貌的影响最为显著,综合考虑各个因素,焊接电压250 V、脉冲频率15 Hz、脉冲宽幅8 ms的焊接工艺为DP780拼焊板最佳焊接工艺。

电压型PWM整流器的双闭环控制模型的研究

与目前广泛应用交一直一交变频调速系统相比,用PWM整流器取代了晶闸管可控整流部分,并对PWM整流器(VSR)的双闭环控制模型的研究。通过仿真结果表明,该系统不仅能使直流电压在一定范围内可调,而且使整流器交流侧电流正弦化,实现单位功率因数运行和电能双向传输。
