Error analysis of non-spherical raindrops on precipitation measurement

Radar cross section (RCS) of non-spherical raindrops is calculated by using the software CST based on finite integral method and compared with RCS of spherical raindrops. The revised factor of non-spherical raindrops is obtained. The radar reflectivity with precipitation change of four distribution models of M-P, Gamma, JD and JT combining the revised factor is gotten using trapezoidal integration. When the influence of non-spherical raindrops is considered, the accuracy of precipitation measurement of four distribution models can be separately improved 8.77%, 8.47%, 10.53% and 8.04% in the case of rain intensity is 100 mm/h.     

Dependence of electrical and optical properties of IGZO films on oxygen flow

Amorphous InGaZnO (a-IGZO) films were deposited on the corning eagle XG (EXG) glass substrates using magnetron sputtering method. The structure, surface morphology, electrical and optical properties of these films were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), semiconductor parameter analyzer and spectrophotometry, respectively. The influence of oxygen flow on the electrical properties of IGZO thin films was studied, showing that increasing oxygen flow changes the resistivity with six orders of magnitude. The contact resistance of ITO/IGZO is 7.35×10⁻² Ω·cm², which suggests that a good ohmic contact exists between In₂O₃: Sn (ITO) and IGZO film.     

Effects of La^3＋on microwave dielectric properties of（Pb0.5Ca0.5）（Fe0.5Ta0.5）O3ceramics

This work investigated the microwave dielectric properties of A-site substitution by rare earth La3+in(Pb0.5Ca0.5)(Fe0.5Ta0.5)O3(PCFT) system.A single perovskite phase was obtained only when the doping content was 2%.Suitable La3+ doping improved microwave dielectric performances.Excessive La3+doping caused the formation of secondary phase,which resulted in the decreasing of permittivity εrand quality factor Qfvalues.Especially,when the doping content is 2%-5%,permittivity εrwas above 75 and Qfvalues were 6...     

Flat-top and low-dispersion optical interleavers based on nested prism pair structure

A novel flat-top and low-dispersion optical interleaver using ring cavities (RCs) in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) is proposed. It is composed of eight mirrors and two nested prism pairs. Each prism and the two mirrors behave as a RC. Phase shift of RC is a periodic function of the frequency of the input light which acts as a phase dispersive mirror. The two phase shifts needed to achieve a flat-top spectral passband are provided by Fresnel reffectivities at the prism-air interface of the two RCs. The...     

3DV quality model based depth maps for view synthesis in FTV system

Depth maps are used for synthesis virtual view in free-viewpoint television (FTV) systems.When depth maps are derived using existing depth estimation methods,the depth distortions will cause undesirable artifacts in the synthesized views.To solve this problem,a 3D video quality model base depth maps (D-3DV) for virtual view synthesis and depth map coding in the FTV applications is proposed.First,the relationships between distortions in coded depth map and rendered view are derived.Then,a precisely 3DV quali...

Nearest neighbor search algorithm based on multiple background grids for fluid simulation

The core of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is the nearest neighbor search subroutine. In this paper, a nearest neighbor search algorithm which is based on multiple background grids and support variable smooth length is introduced. Through tested on lid driven cavity flow, it is clear that this method can provide high accuracy. Analysis and experiments have been made on its parallelism, and the results show that this method has better parallelism and with adding processors its accuracy become higher, thus it achieves that efficiency grows in pace with accuracy.     

Extraction of novel features for emotion recognition

Hilbert-Huang transform method has been widely utilized from its inception because of the superiority in varieties of areas. The Hilbert spectrum thus obtained is able to reflect the distribution of the signal energy in a number of scales accurately. In this paper, a novel feature called ECC is proposed via feature extraction of the Hilbert energy spectrum which describes the distribution of the instantaneous energy. The experimental results conspicuously demonstrate that ECC outperforms the traditional short-term average energy. Combination of the ECC with mel frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) delineates the distribution of energy in the time domain and frequency domain, and the features of this group achieve a better recognition effect compared with the feature combination of the short-term average energy, pitch and MFCC. Afterwards, further improvements of ECC are developed. TECC is gained by combining ECC with the teager energy operator, and EFCC is obtained by introducing the instantaneous frequency to the energy. In the experiments, seven status of emotion are selected to be recognized and the highest recognition rate 83.57% is achieved within the classification accuracy of boredom reaching 100%. The numerical results indicate that the proposed features ECC, TECC and EFCC can improve the performance of speech emotion recognition substantially.

Implementation of advanced peripheral bus interface for MV1O MCU

MV10 is an MCU which consists of PWM,ADC,CAN and some other function blocks.It is designed for car body's control.Advanced peripheral bus (APB) is a low speed AMBA bus connecting low-power peripherals.This paper presents an implementation of APB interface for MV10 MCU.After that,MV10 can be integrated into any AMBA system on chips (SoCs) easily.We have built a multi-core system with ABMA to verify this design.In this system ARM9 is a main processor mounted on AHB and MV10 acts as a low-power and low-speed slaver on APB.Before building this system,some operations are encapsulated into a task with dedicated ID.MV10 works as a co-processor with ARM by acquiring task ID from ARM.The result of simulation indicates that MCU can work well as expected.Based on our design,MV10 can be mounted on any AMBA system from now on.
