A prototype inspired by the dynamic mechanism of attitude adjustment of locusts was developed. The prototype consists of a pair of wings driven by a four-bar mechanism, and a 2 Degree of Freedom （DOF） tail to imitate the movement of the locust abdomen. The power source, microcontroller, wireless data transmission module, and attitude sensors are contained in the fuselage. Experiments imitating the flight of locust were conducted to determine the mechanism of locust Subsequent Attitude Adjustment （SAA）. The tethered prototype was driven by the movement of the tail and the flapping of the wings. Results show that the pitch and yaw of the tail, and the asymmetric action of the flapping wings significantly influence the posture of the prototype. These findings suggest that both the wiggling abdomen and flapping wings contribute to the locust SAA in the air. This research lays the groundwork and technical support for the probable design and development of practical jumping robots with attitude adjustment function.展开更多

The proposed method first relaxes the limits that the synthesis filters are the time-reversed version of the analysis filters and then adopts the time domain formula of the perfect reconstruction property as the solution to design the synthesis filters. The prototype filter in analysis filter banks is designed based on Fourier-Kaiser window approach. Simulation results show that the designed filter banks approximately satisfy the perfect reconstruction with controllable reconstruction errors.展开更多
