基于L形嵌套的混合MIMO相控阵雷达阵列设计

混合MIMO相控阵雷达发射端的子阵分割会导致自由度损失,为了解决这一问题,提出了一种基于嵌套阵结构的L形收发阵列设计方法。首先将发射端的混合MIMO相控阵雷达线阵纵向放置,然后接收阵列设计为横向布置的嵌套阵结构,最后通过在虚拟阵列中构造差异阵列,以L形的线阵结构实现了二维混合MIMO相控阵雷达的功能。通过形成虚拟阵元数目扩展,在保留混合MIMO相控阵雷达优势的同时增大了阵列自由度。且本文给出了这种结构下阵列流形的闭合表达式。仿真结果表明,与传统的混合MIMO相控阵雷达相比,这种方法能够提高自由度和波达方向估计精度。      

二维稀疏相控阵声场优化及阵元故障影响分析

针对二维稀疏超声相控阵声场分布中的栅瓣和旁瓣问题,推导了二维稀疏超声相控阵的指向性公式,并利用发射阵列和接收阵列交错分布的方式消除栅瓣及抑制旁瓣,从而优化声场特性,优化后横向和侧向扫描范围由30°扩大到60°。建立了优化后阵列声场指向性与损坏阵元位置的函数关系式。声场指向性仿真结果表明,距阵列中心越近的阵元损坏时旁瓣升高越多,单个阵元损坏导致一级旁瓣最多升高20dB,主瓣下降约6dB,且与损坏阵元位置无关;相同位置的发射阵列和接收阵列阵元同时损坏时,对声场特性影响达到最大。

基于波束域预处理的阵列盲信号分离方法

相控阵雷达采用多个阵元进行信号的接收处理,其多通道信号处理可以采用盲信号处理的方法进行目标源信号分离.由于阵元间距导致信号在阵元间产生相位延迟,在进行盲分离的时候一般只能采用卷积混合模型,盲分离过程是较为复杂的多通道反卷积问题.文中对阵列接收信号进行波束域预处理,通过确定的空间波束相位补偿,将阵元域的多时延混合信号变换为瞬时混合信号,从而采用简单的实数分离算法即可完成信号分离,分离信号可用于后置处理.所提方法简单有效,相比常规阵列信号处理方法,可直接适用于宽带信号.仿真实验验证了其有效性.

Resolution Enhancement Technology:Integrated Process Solutions using OPC

DUV lithography, using the 248 nm wavelength, is a viable manufacturing option for devices with features at 130 nm and less. Given the low kl value of the lithography, integrated process development is a necessary method for achieving acceptable process latitude. The application of assist features for rule based OPC requires the simultaneous optimization of the mask, illumination optics and the resist.Described in this paper are the details involved in optimizing each of these aspects for line and space imaging.A reference pitch is first chosen to determine how the optics will be set. The ideal sigma setting is determined by a simple geometrically derived expression. The inner and outer machine settings are determined, in turn,with the simulation of a figure of merit. The maximum value of the response surface of this FOM occurs at the optimal sigma settings. Experimental confirmation of this is shown in the paper.Assist features are used to modify the aerial image of the more isolated images on the mask. The effect that the diffraction of the scattering bars (SBs) has on the image intensity distribution is explained. Rules for determining the size and placement of SBs are also given.Resist is optimized for use with off-axis illumination and assist features. A general explanation of the material' s effect is discussed along with the affect on the through-pitch bias. The paper culminates with the showing of the lithographic results from the fully optimized system.     

Cost-effective test solutions for smart card and other integrated flash applications

From its emergence in the late 1980s as a lower cost alternative to early EEPROM technologies, flash memory has evolved to higher densities and speedsand rapidly growing acceptance in mobile applications.In the process, flash memory devices have placed increased test requirements on manufacturers. Today, as flash device test grows in importance in China, manufacturers face growing pressure for reduced cost-oftest, increased throughput and greater return on investment for test equipment. At the same time, the move to integrated flash packages for contactless smart card applications adds a significant further challenge to manufacturers seeking rapid, low-cost test.     

Theoretical analysis of the relationship between the Brillouin gain coefficient and the strain in the optical-fiber sensors

The relation between the power of the Brillouin signal and the strain is one of the bases of the distributed fiber sensors of temperature and strain. The coefficient of the Bfillouin gain can be changed by the temperature and the strain that will affect the power of the Brillouin scattering. The relation between the change of the Brillouin gain coefficient and the strain is thought to be linear by many researchers. However, it is not always linear based on the theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. Therefore, errors will be caused if the relation between the change of the Brillouin gain coefficient and the strain is regarded as to be linear approximately for measuring the temperature and the strain. For this reason, the influence of the parameters on the Brillouin gain coefficient is proposed through theoretical analysis and numerical simulation.     

An improved parallel thinning algorithm with two subiterations

The parallel thinning algorithm with two subiterations is improved in this paper. By analyzing the notions of connected components and passes, a conclusion is drawn that the number of passes and the number of eight-connected components are equal. Then the expression of the number of eight-connected components is obtained which replaces the old one in the algorithm. And a reserving condition is proposed by experiments, which alleviates the excess deletion where a diagonal line and a beeline intersect. The experimental results demonstrate that the thinned curve is almost located in the middle of the original curve connectivelv with single pixel width and the processing speed is high.     

Novel fiber-optical interferometer with miniaturized probe for in-hole measurements

Today, micro-system technology and the development of new MEMS （Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems） are emerging rapidly. In order for this development to become a success in the long run, measurement systems have to ensure product quality. Most often, MEMS have to be tested by means of functionality or destructive tests. One reason for this is that there are no suitable systems or sensing probes available which can be used for the measurement of quasi inaccessible features like small holes or cavities. We present a measurement system that could be used for these kinds of measurements. The system combines a fiber optical, miniaturized sensing probe with low-coherence interferometry, so that absolute distance measurements with nanometer accuracy are possible.     

Study of waveguide coupling efficiency in hybrid silicon lasers

This paper presents a new method to increase the waveguide coupling efficiency in hybrid silicon lasers. We find that the propagation constant of the InGaAsP emitting layer can be equal to that of the Si resonant layer through improving the design size of the InP waveguide. The coupling power achieves 42% of the total power in the hybrid lasers when the thickness of the bonding layer is 100 nm. Our result is very close to 50% of the total power reported by Intel when the thickness of the thin bonding layer is less than 5 nm. Therefore, our invariable coupling power technique is simpler than Intel＇s.     

Teleportation of an arbitrary unknown N-qubit entangled state under the controlling of M controllers

A new quantum protocol to teleport an arbitrary unknown N-qubit entangled state from a sender to a fixed receiver under M controllers(M < N) is proposed. The quantum resources required are M non-maximally entangled Greenberger-Home-Zeilinger (GHZ) state and N-M non-maximally entangled Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) pairs. The sender performs N generalized Bell-state measurements on the 2N particles. Controllers take M single-particle measurement along x-axis, and the receiver needs to introduce one auxiliary two-level particle to extract quantum information probabilistically with the fidelity unit if controllers cooperate with it.
