Adaptive Bistable Stochastic Resonance Based Weak Signal Reception in Additive Laplacian Noise

Weak signal reception is a very important and challenging problem for communication systems especially in the presence of non-Gaussian noise,and in which case the performance of optimal linear correlated receiver degrades dramatically.Aiming at this,a novel uncorrelated reception scheme based on adaptive bistable stochastic resonance(ABSR)for a weak signal in additive Laplacian noise is investigated.By analyzing the key issue that the quantitative cooperative resonance matching relationship between the characteristics of the noisy signal and the nonlinear bistable system,an analytical expression of the bistable system parameters is derived.On this basis,by means of bistable system parameters self-adaptive adjustment,the counterintuitive stochastic resonance(SR)phenomenon can be easily generated at which the random noise is changed into a benefit to assist signal transmission.Finally,it is demonstrated that approximately 8dB bit error ratio(BER)performance improvement for the ABSR-based uncorrelated receiver when compared with the traditional uncorrelated receiver at low signal to noise ratio(SNR)conditions varying from-30dB to-5dB.

Weak signal detection method based on novel composite multistable stochastic resonance

The weak signal detection method based on stochastic resonance is usually used to extract and identify the weak characteristic signal submerged in strong noise by using the noise energy transfer mechanism.We propose a novel composite multistable stochastic-resonance(NCMSR)model combining the Gaussian potential model and an improved bistable model.Compared with the traditional multistable stochastic resonance method,all the parameters in the novel model have no symmetry,the output signal-to-noise ratio can be optimized and the output amplitude can be improved by adjusting the system parameters.The model retains the advantages of continuity and constraint of the Gaussian potential model and the advantages of the improved bistable model without output saturation,the NCMSR model has a higher utilization of noise.Taking the output signal-to-noise ratio as the index,weak periodic signal is detected based on the NCMSR model in Gaussian noise andαnoise environment respectively,and the detection effect is good.The application of NCMSR to the actual detection of bearing fault signals can realize the fault detection of bearing inner race and outer race.The outstanding advantages of this method in weak signal detection are verified,which provides a theoretical basis for industrial practical applications.

Modification of rock mass rating system:Interbedding of strong and weak rock layers

Rock mass classification systems are the very important part for underground projects and rock mass rating(RMR) is one of the most commonly applied classification systems in numerous civil and mining projects. The type of rock mass consisting of an interbedding of strong and weak layers poses difficulties and uncertainties for determining the RMR. For this, the present paper uses the concept of rock bolt supporting factor(RSF) for modification of RMR system to be used in such rock mass types. The proposed method also demonstrates the importance of rock bolting practice in such rock masses. The geological parameters of the Shemshak Formation of the Alborz Tunnel in Iran are used as case examples for development of the theoretical approach.

Weak thruster fault detection for AUV based on stochastic resonance and wavelet reconstruction

When the bi-stable stochastic resonance method was applied to enhance weak thruster fault for autonomous underwater vehicle(AUV), the enhancement performance could not satisfy the detection requirement of weak thruster fault. As for this problem, a fault feature enhancement method based on mono-stable stochastic resonance was proposed. In the method, in order to improve the enhancement performance of weak thruster fault feature, the conventional bi-stable potential function was changed to mono-stable potential function which was more suitable for aperiodic signals. Furthermore, when particle swarm optimization was adopted to adjust the parameters of mono-stable stochastic resonance system, the global convergent time would be long. An improved particle swarm optimization method was developed by changing the linear inertial weighted function as nonlinear function with cosine function, so as to reduce the global convergent time. In addition, when the conventional wavelet reconstruction method was adopted to detect the weak thruster fault, undetected fault or false alarm may occur. In order to successfully detect the weak thruster fault, a weak thruster detection method was proposed based on the integration of stochastic resonance and wavelet reconstruction. In the method, the optimal reconstruction scale was determined by comparing wavelet entropies corresponding to each decomposition scale. Finally, pool-experiments were performed on AUV with thruster fault. The effectiveness of the proposed mono-stable stochastic resonance method in enhancing fault feature and reducing the global convergent time was demonstrated in comparison with particle swarm optimization based bi-stochastic resonance method. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the proposed fault detection method was illustrated in comparison with the conventional wavelet reconstruction.

Implication of two-coupled tri-stable stochastic resonance in weak signal detection

Stochastic resonance （SR） has been proved to be an effective approach to extract weak signals overwhelmed in noise. However, the detection effect of current SR models is still unsatisfactory. Here, a coupled tri-stable stochastic resonance （CTSSR） model is proposed to further increase the output signal-to-noise ratio （SNR） and improve the detection effect of SR. The effects of parameters a, b, c, and r in the proposed resonance system on the SNR are studied, by which we determine a set of parameters that is relatively optimal to implement a comparison with other classical SR models. Numerical experiment results indicate that this proposed model performs better in weak signal detection applications than the classical ones with merits of higher output SNR and better anti-noise capability.

A homotopy analysis method（HAM）is presented for the primary resonance of multiple degree-of-freedom systems with strong non-linearity excited by harmonic forces.The validity of the HAM is independent of the existence of small parameters in the considered equation.The HAM provides a simple way to adjust and control the convergence region of the series solution by means of an auxiliary parameter.Two examples are presented to show that the HAM solutions agree well with the results of the modified Linstedt-Poincar＇e method and the incremental harmonic balance method.

Re-scaling and adaptive stochastic resonance as a tool for weak GNSS signal acquisition

Weak global navigation satellite system（GNSS） signal acquisition has been a limitation for high sensitivity GPS receivers. This paper modifies the traditional acquisition algorithms and proposes a new weak GNSS signal acquisition method using re-scaling and adaptive stochastic resonance（SR）. The adoption of classical SR is limited to low-frequency and periodic signals. Given that GNSS signal frequency is high and that the periodic feature of the GNSS signal is affected by the Doppler frequency shift, classical SR methods cannot be directly used to acquire GNSS signals. Therefore, the re-scaling technique is used in our study to expand its usage to high-frequency signals and adaptive control technique is used to gradually determine the Doppler shift effect in GNSS signal buried in strong noises. The effectiveness of our proposed method was verified by the simulations on GPS L1 signals. The simulation results indicate that the new algorithm based on SR can reach-181 d BW sensitivity with a very short data length of 1 ms.

Novel Woods-Saxon stochastic resonance system for weak signal detection

We propose a joint exponential function and Woods–Saxon stochastic resonance(EWSSR)model.Because change of a single parameter in the classical stochastic resonance model may cause a great change in the shape of the potential function,it is difficult to obtain the optimal output signal-to-noise ratio by adjusting one parameter.In the novel system,the influence of different parameters on the shape of the potential function has its own emphasis,making it easier for us to adjust the shape of the potential function.The system can obtain different widths of the potential well or barrier height by adjusting one of these parameters,so that the system can match different types of input signals adaptively.By adjusting the system parameters,the potential function model can be transformed between the bistable model and the monostable model.The potential function of EWSSR has richer shapes and geometric characteristics.The effects of parameters,such as the height of the barrier and the width of the potential well,on SNR are studied,and a set of relatively optimal parameters are determined.Moreover,the EWSSR model is compared with other classical stochastic resonance models.Numerical experiments show that the proposed EWSSR model has higher SNR and better noise immunity than other classical stochastic resonance models.Simultaneously,the EWSSR model is applied to the detection of actual bearing fault signals,and the detection effect is also superior to other models.

In this paper, by using harmonic-oscillator wave functions of different interaction models, i.e. OPE (onepion-exchange model), OPsE (only pseudoscalar meson exchange model), the extended GBE (Goldstone-boson-exchange model including vector and scalar mesons), and OGE (one-gluon-exchange model), we calculate and compare the strong decays of negative parity N* resonances under 2 GeV. We find that the conventional mixing angles are correct, and GBE and OGE are obviously superior to OPE and OPsE.
