CRAMER-RAO BOUNDS OF THE FREQUENCY ESTIMATION IN THE TIME SELECTIVE RADIO CHANNELS WITH DOPPLER SPREAD

The mobile channel is slow fading and time selective, thus the multiplicative and additive noise of the channel will smear the spectral line, or arouse Doppler spread. This spread will make the parameters estimation accuracy degrade. The goal of this paper is to analytically assess this degradation when Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO) and Doppler shift exist jointly. Then the finite-sample Cramer-Rao Lower Bound (CRLB) is derived and close-form asymptotical expression is given for large-sample CRLB. These expressions give insights into the performance room for frequency estimation. Also the variance of Doppler shift estimator is simulated to illustrate the theoretical results.

NEW BOUNDS ON TIME AND NUMBER OF PROCESSORS FOR MULTIPROCESSOR OPTIMAL SCHEDULES

Two problems for task schedules in a multiprocessor parallel system are discussed in Ans paper (1) given a partially ordered set of tasks represented by the venices of an acyclic directed graph with their corresponding processing bines, derive the lower bound on the Annimum time(LBMT) needed to process the task graph for a given number of processors. (2) Determine the lower bound on minimum number of processors(LBMP) needed to complete those tasks in minimum bine. It is shown that the proposed LBMT is sharper than previously Known values and the comPUtational aspeCts of these bounds are also discussed.

Robust controller design for compound control missile with fixed bounded convergence time

A robust controller for bank to turn(BTT) missiles with aerodynamic fins and reaction jet control system(RCS) is developed based on nonlinear control dynamic models comprising couplings and aerodynamic uncertainties. The fixed time convergence theory is incorporated with the sliding mode control technique to ensure that the system tracks the desired command within uniform bounded time under different initial conditions. Unlike previous terminal sliding mode approaches, the bound of settling time is independent of the initial state, which means performance metrics like convergence rate can be predicted beforehand. To reduce the burden of control design in terms of robustness, extended state observer(ESO) is introduced for uncertainty estimation with the output substituted into the controller as feedforward compensation. Cascade control structure is employed with the proposed control law and therein the compound control signal is obtained.Afterwards, control inputs for two kinds of actuators are allocated on the basis of their inherent characteristics. Finally, a number of simulations are carried out and demonstrate the effectiveness of the designed controller.

Upper bound for the time derivative of entropy for a stochastic dynamical system with double singularities driven by non-Gaussian noise

A stochastic dynamical system with double singularities driven by non-Gaussian noise is investigated. The Fokker Plank equation of the system is obtained through the path-integral approach and the method of transformation. Based on the definition of Shannon＇s information entropy and the Schwartz inequality principle, the upper bound for the time derivative of entropy is calculated both in the absence and in the presence of non-equilibrium constraint. The present calculations can be used to interpret the effects of the system dissipative parameter, the system singularity strength parameter, the noise correlation time and the noise deviation parameter on the upper bound.

Control of Interior Sources on Time-Bound Characteristics of Mineralization in Southwest Yangtze Massif

Strata bound ore deposits of Au, Ag, Hg, Sb, As, Sn, Pb and Zn in southwest Yangtze massif are concentrated in Cambrian, Devonian, Upper Permian to Lower Triassic and rarely in other horizons, showing a strong time bound feature. The metallogenic elements are highly enriched in these host strata and limited in other horizons. Isotope researches indicate that the metallogenic elements in the ore deposits mainly come from the host strata. The studies of trace elements in the host mudstone show lower w (Th)/ w (Sc), w (Th)/ w (U) ratios, higher mafic elements (such as Cr, Ni, Co) mass fractions than the average values of the same kind of rocks in the upper crust and the research area. The chondrite normalized REE patterns of mudstone in the host strata are quite different from the common mudstones and shales with relatively steep HREE slopes (relatively high w (Tb) n/ w (Yb) n ratios, between 1.48 and 2.00) and no or slightly negative Eu anomalies (high δ (Eu) ratios, between 0.79 and 0.89). The NASC normalized REE patterns of siliceous rocks in the host strata show the HREE enrichment (the w (La) n/ w (Yb) n ratios are less than 1), a little Eu positive anomalies and Ce depletion with high abundances of As, Se, Sb and Ba elements, which shows the hydrothermal deposit features. The NASC normalized REE patterns of the mudstone in the host strata are very similar to those of the hydrothermal siliceous rocks and to those of the tuffs and basalts except the higher total REE mass fractions. All of these geochemical characteristics suggest the existence of interior sources pouring into basin when the host strata were deposited. The research of basin evolution also indicates that the host strata were deposited in the pulling apart periods. It can be realized from these facts that the degree of enrichment and deficiency of the elements in the normal depositional strata is very limited, and it is only the particular horizons corresponding to the particular periods of the earth ’s evolution that can be the significant source beds because only in these unusual horizons can be highly enriched metallogenic elements. The interior sources corresponding to the pulling apart of basin evolution may be the main cause to make the mineralization of the strata bound ore deposits in southwest Yangtze massif take on time bound characteristics.

BLOW-UP AND LIFE SPAN ESTIMATES FOR A CLASS OF NONLINEAR DEGENERATE PARABOLIC SYSTEM WITH TIME-DEPENDENT COEFFICIENTS

This paper deals with the singularity and global regularity tor a class oI nonlinear porous medium system with time-dependent coefficients under homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. First, by comparison principle, some global regularity results are established. Secondly, using some differential inequality technique, we investigate the blow-up solution to the initial-boundary value problem. Furthermore, upper and lower bounds for the maximum blow-up time under some appropriate hypotheses are derived as long as blow-up Occurs.

Finite-time control of linear parameter-varying systems with norm-bounded exogenous disturbance

In this paper, a new approach is presented for finite-time control problems for linear systems subject to time-varying parametric uncertainties and exogenous disturbance. The disturbance is assumed to be time varying and bounded. Sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence of a linear parameter-dependent state feedback gain, which can ensure that the closed-loop system is finite-time bounded （FTB）. The conditions can be reduced to feasibility problems involving LMIs. Numerical examples show the validity of the proposed methodology.

Effect of time delay on the upper bound of the time derivative of information entropy in a stochastic dynamical system

The effects of the time delay on the upper bound of the time derivative of information entropy are investigated in a time-delayed dynamical system driven by correlated noise. Using the Markov approximation of the stochastic delay differential equations and the Schwartz inequality principle, we obtain an analytical expression for the upper bound UB（t） of the time derivative of the information entropy. The results show that there is a critical value of T （delay time）, and UB（t） presents opposite behaviours on difference sides of the critical value. For the case of the weak additive noise, T can induce a reentrance transition. Delay time T also causes a reversal behaviour in UB（t）-λplot, where λ denotes the degree of the correlation between the two noises.

Area-time associated test cost model for SoC and lower bound of test time

A novel test access mechanism （TAM） architecture with multi test-channel （TC） based on IEEE Standard 1500 is proposed instead of the traditional sub-TAM structure. The cost model of an area-time associated test and the corresponding lower bound of system-on-chip （SoC） test time are established based on this TAM architecture. The model provides a more reliable method to control the SoC scheduling and reduces the complexity in related algorithm research. The result based on the area time associated test cost model has been validated using the ITC02 test benchmark.

Parameter estimation of LFM signals based on time reversal

In this paper,parameter estimation of linear frequency modulation(LFM)signals containing additive white Gaussian noise is studied.Because the center frequency estimation of an LFM signal is affected by the error propagation effect,resulting in a higher signal to noise ratio(SNR)threshold,a parameter estimation method for LFM signals based on time reversal is proposed.The proposed method avoids SNR loss in the process of estimating the frequency,thus reducing the SNR threshold.The simulation results show that the threshold is reduced by 5 dB compared with the discrete polynomial transform(DPT)method,and the root-mean-square error(RMSE)of the proposed estimator is close to the Cramer-Rao lower bound(CRLB).

Performance Evaluation of Three-Dimensional UWB Real-Time Locating Auto-Positioning System for Fire Rescue

Fire rescue challenges and solutions have evolved from straightfor-ward plane rescue to encompass 3D space due to the rise of high-rise city buildings.Hence,this study facilitates a system with quick and simplified on-site launching and generates real-time location data,enabling fire rescuers to arrive at the intended spot faster and correctly for effective and precise rescue.Auto-positioning with step-by-step instructions is proposed when launching the locating system,while no extra measuring instrument like Total Station(TS)is needed.Real-time location tracking is provided via a 3D space real-time locating system(RTLS)constructed using Ultra-wide Bandwidth technology(UWB),which requires electromagnetic waves to pass through concrete walls.A hybrid weighted least squares with a time difference of arrival(WLS/TDOA)positioning method is proposed to address real path-tracking issues in 3D space and to meet RTLS requirements for quick computing in real-world applications.The 3D WLS/TDOA algorithm is theoretically constructed with the Cramer-Rao lower bound(CRLB).The computing complexity is reduced to the lower bound for embedded hardware to directly compute the time differential of the arriving signals using the time-to-digital converter(TDC).The results of the experiments show that the errors are controlled when the positioning algorithm is applied in various complicated situations to fulfill the requirements of engineering applications.The statistical analysis of the data reveals that the proposed UWB RTLS auto-positioning system can track target tags with an accuracy of 0.20 m.

基于二次分数低阶协方差的时延估计方法

针对强脉冲噪声背景下基于分数低阶统计量时延估计方法性能退化且需要噪声先验知识的问题,提出了一种基于二次分数低阶协方差的时延估计新方法。所提方法首先利用有界非线性Sigmoid函数对含有脉冲噪声的信号进行预处理,使其在不影响有用信号时延信息的基础上对附加脉冲噪声进行充分压缩;然后对处理后的收发信号进行二次分数低阶协方差运算,即求得发射信号的自分数低阶协方差和收发信号的互分数低阶协方差之后,再次计算二者的互分数低阶协方差,以期更大程度上抑制脉冲噪声的影响。通过模拟仿真实验对所提方法进行了有效性验证,结果表明所提方法突破了分数低阶矩阶次需小于Alpha稳定分布噪声特征指数的限制,并且比分数低阶协方差方法具有更高的估计精度。仿真实验结果表明在广义信噪比-10 dB情况下,时延估计用时为0.0560 s,准确率达到97.76%。
