The complex data samples are directly extrapolated to obtain the extrapolated echo data in the frequency domain. The small rotating angle data extrapolation and the large rotating angular data extrapolation are considered separately in azimuth domain. The method of data extrapolation for the small rotating angle is the same as that in frequency domain, while the amplitude samples of large rotating angle echo data are extrapolated to obtain extrapolated echo amplitude, and the complex data of large rotating angle echo samples are extrapolated to get the extrapolated echo phase respectively. The calculation results show that the extrapolated echo data obtained by the above mentioned methods are accurate.展开更多

Because the TREC vector (tracking radar echo by correlation) represents only the instantaneous trend of precipitation echo motion, the approach using derived echo motion vectors to extrapolate radar reflectivity as a rainfall forecast is not satisfactory if the lead time is beyond 30 minutes. For longer lead times, the effect of ambient winds on echo movement should be considered. In this paper, an extrapolation algorithm that extends forecast lead times up to 3 hours was developed to blend TREC vectors with model-predicted winds. The TREC vectors were derived from radar reflectivity patterns in 3 km height CAPPI (constant altitude plan position indicator) mosaics through a cross-correlation technique. The background steering winds were provided by predictions of the rapid update assimilation model CHAF (cycle of hourly assimilation and forecast). A similarity index was designed to determine the vertical level at which model winds were applied in the extrapolation process, which occurs via a comparison between model winds and radar vectors. Based on a summer rainfall case study, it is found that the new algorithm provides a better forecast.展开更多

The cost function is constructed using 12-norm Gaussian entropy combined with an additional constraint, 12-norm constraint or linear constraint. By minimizing the cost functions in the temporal and the spatial dimensions using corresponding iteration algorithms respectively, the sparse discrete Fourier transforms (DFTs) of temporal and spatial samples are obtained to represent the extrapolated sequences with much larger sizes than the original samples. Then frequency and angle estimates are obtained by performing the traditional simple methods on the extrapolated sequences. It is shown that the proposed algorithm offers increased resolution and significantly reduced sidelobes compared with the periodogram and beamforming based methods. And it achieves high precision compared with the high-resolution method with lower computational burden. Some numerical simulations and real data processing results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the method.展开更多

Afterwards,the two plans for lightning nowcasting were tested by a case respectively. It is concluded that during the process of lightning nowcasting singly based on MOD-COTREC,the appearance and disappearance of lightning are not considered,and only lightning position is predicted when lightning density is constant,so the prediction error is big. The plan for lightning nowcasting based on both isothermal radar reflectivity and MOD-COTREC is still at an experimental stage,and the nowcasting products of cloud-to-ground lightning based on the plan are very different from the actual density and position of cloud-to-ground lightning,so it needs to be improved further.展开更多

Delay compensation by Carath ′eodory representation could achieve high interpolation accuracy while using the single channel sampling technique. Array extrapolation by Carath ′eodory representation reformulates and extends each snapshot, consequently extends the aperture of the original uniform linear array(ULA) by several times and provides a better realtime performance than the existing aperture extrapolation utilizing vector extrapolation based on the two dimensional autoregressive(2-D AR) model. The UWB linear frequency modulated(LFM) signal is used for simulation analysis.

The Mn3+, Zr4+, Ti4+and Pb4+cations are incorporated into the lattice of tetragonal rutile SnO2 to form a solid solution structure. As a consequence, the surface area and thermal stability of the catalysts are improved. Moreover, the oxygen species of the modified catalysts become easier to be reduced. Therefore, the oxidation activity over the catalysts was improved, except for the one modified by Pb oxide. Manganese oxide demonstrates the best promotional effects for SnO2. Using an X‐ray diffraction extrapolation method, the lattice capacity of SnO2 for Mn2O3 was 0.135 g Mn2O3/g SnO2, which indicates that to form stable solid solution, only 21%Sn4+cations in the lattice can be maximally replaced by Mn3+. If the amount of Mn3+cations is over the capacity, Mn2O3 will be formed, which is not favorable for the activity of the catalysts. The Sn rich samples with only Sn‐Mn solid solution phase show higher activity than the ones with excess Mn2O3 species.展开更多

In addition, higher order Aitken extrapolation is introduced that enables successive decomposition of high Eigen values of the iteration matrix to enable convergence. While extrapolation of a convergent fixed point iteration using a geometric series sum is a known form of Aitken acceleration, it is shown that in this paper, the same formula can be used to estimate the solution of sets of linear equations from diverging Gauss-Seidel iterations. In both convergent and divergent iterations, the ratios of differences among the consecutive values of iteration eventually form a convergent (divergent) series with a factor equal to the largest Eigen value of the iteration matrix. Higher order Aitken extrapolation is shown to eliminate the influence of dominant Eigen values of the iteration matrix in successive order until the iteration is determined by the lowest possible Eigen values. For the convergent part of the Gauss-Seidel iteration, further acceleration is made possible by coupling of the extrapolation technique with the successive over relaxation (SOR) method. Application examples from both convergent and divergent iterations have been provided. Coupling of the extrapolation with the SOR technique is also illustrated for a steady state two dimensional heat flow problem which was solved using MATLAB programming.展开更多

Such sequences arise, for example, in the solution of systems of linear or nonlinear equations by fixed-point iterative methods, and are simply the required solutions. In most cases of interest, however, these sequences converge to their limits extremely slowly. One practical way to make the sequences converge more quickly is to apply to them vector extrapolation methods. Two types of methods exist in the literature: polynomial type methods and epsilon algorithms. In most applications, the polynomial type methods have proved to be superior convergence accelerators. Three polynomial type methods are known, and these are the minimal polynomial extrapolation (MPE), the reduced rank extrapolation (RRE), and the modified minimal polynomial extrapolation (MMPE). In this work, we develop yet another polynomial type method, which is based on the singular value decomposition, as well as the ideas that lead to MPE. We denote this new method by SVD-MPE. We also design a numerically stable algorithm for its implementation, whose computational cost and storage requirements are minimal. Finally, we illustrate the use of SVD-MPE with numerical examples.展开更多

文摘Based on an asymptotic expansion of finite element, an extrapolation cascadic multigrid method (EXCMG) is proposed, in which the new extrapolation and quadratic interpolation are used to provide a better initial value on refined grid. In the case of multiple grids, both superconvergence error in H^1-norm and the optimal error in l2-norm are analyzed. The numerical experiment shows the advantage of EXCMG in comparison with CMG.
文摘An important problem that arises in different areas of science and engineering is that of computing the limits of sequences of vectors , where , N being very large. Such sequences arise, for example, in the solution of systems of linear or nonlinear equations by fixed-point iterative methods, and are simply the required solutions. In most cases of interest, however, these sequences converge to their limits extremely slowly. One practical way to make the sequences converge more quickly is to apply to them vector extrapolation methods. Two types of methods exist in the literature: polynomial type methods and epsilon algorithms. In most applications, the polynomial type methods have proved to be superior convergence accelerators. Three polynomial type methods are known, and these are the minimal polynomial extrapolation (MPE), the reduced rank extrapolation (RRE), and the modified minimal polynomial extrapolation (MMPE). In this work, we develop yet another polynomial type method, which is based on the singular value decomposition, as well as the ideas that lead to MPE. We denote this new method by SVD-MPE. We also design a numerically stable algorithm for its implementation, whose computational cost and storage requirements are minimal. Finally, we illustrate the use of SVD-MPE with numerical examples.
