Abstract:To achieve enough fade budgets for reliable link in satellite-to-ground optical communications, the expressions for the total probability density functions of signal intensity fluctuation are derived at large zenith angles and small zenith angles considering atmospheric scintillation, static pointing error and pointing jitter and relation of the lost-tracking probability variable with fade budgets is given. Finally, the total probability density function and lost-tracking probability are simulated. Experimental results show that the ratio of the optimal beam divergent angle to the square root of the variance of the pointing jitter for uplink and downlink is 4 and 6; the required fade budget at a lost-tracking probability of 10-3 is 10 dB and 3 dB for uplink and downlink.

Abstract:The light modulator based on Micro-opto-electro-mechanical System(MEMS) has already become a research focus in projection display field. The structure of Grating Moving Light Modulator (GMLM) supported by four crab-cantilevers is composed of reflection plate, address electrode,four crab-cantilevers and grating plate. In this paper, the influence of crab-cantilevers on GMLM performance was analyzed.The diffraction intensity of GMLM was discussed with Fourier optics, while the grating period number was odd and even integer. Especially, the influence of frame and four crab-cantilevers on GMLM performance was analyzed in detail. The result indicates that frame and crab-cantilever size should be reduced in design for obtaining a higher constrast ratio. Moreover, the relationship between contrast ratio and important structure parameter is shown in figures.
Abstract:As an important laser active medium, Nd:YVO4 is widely used in LD end-pumped solid-state lasers due to its large stimulated emission cross section, very strong broad absorption band at 809 nm and polarized emission,etc, and it has three useful stimulated emission spectra of 1 064 nm,1 342 nm and 914 nm but the quasi three level of 914 nm spectum and the low thermal conductivity of YVO4 crystal limit the development of its high power laser output. An efficient high power LD-end-pumped continuous-wave (CW) Nd:YVO4 laser has been developed by restraining the high gains at wavelengths of 1 064 nm and 1 342 nm with a simple folded cavity and suitable medium film applied on its three mirrors. An output power of 6.5 W, slope efficiency of 37.9% and optical-to-optical conversion efficiency of 22.4% can be achieved when the pump power is 29 W.
Abstract:Two package methods of Fiber Bragg Grating(FBG) temperature sensors were introduced. The temperature sensitive factors of the sensors were derived analytically and verified by experiments. The experiment results of two kinds of FBG temperature sensors in identical conditions were compared by analyzing the variety properties of center wavelength from -70℃ to 0℃. From the experimental results,it is shown that the center wavelength of FBG temperature sensor with thin stainless steel tube package falls sharply at -60℃; while there is a very good linearity and preferable repeatability between the center wavelength of FBG with gold package in the temperature change from -70℃ to 0℃, and almost no hysteresis effect. The sensitivities KT of two temperature sensors are 28.2 pm/ ℃ and 21.3 pm/ ℃ respectively during linear change, and they are 2.89 and 2.28 times as large as that of a bare FBG. Their pertinence coefficients are more than 0.999.

Abstract:Three factors of restraining speckle noise in detection system,coherence, phase difference and polarization of the incident ray,were analyzed in detail, and the relations between these factors and speckle contrast were also presented. Calculation results show that when coherence length is less than 1 mm, speckle contrast is reduced to 0.5, which is advantageous to obtaining excellent measuring accuracy and keeping good details for a image. On the basis of theoretical analysis, the solution and optimization to reduce speckle was proposed to restrain speckle noise, improve illumination quality and enhance accuracy of measurement.
Abstract:Based on the acutely isolated rat hippocampal CA3 pyramidal neurons irradiated by a semiconductor laser with wavelengh 670 nm and power 5 mW, the current characteristics of transient outward potassium channel were investigated using the whole-cell patch clamp technique. The experiments reveal that low power laser decreases the amplitudes of transient outward potassium current (IA) in a voltage-dependent and reversible manner. The percentage of current inhibition is up to (40.13±5.19)% (n=10) depolarizing to +50 mV in laser irradiating 5 min. The maximal activation current densities of control group, irradiation group and recovery group are (398.55±36.49)pA/pF, (238.62±30.78)pA/pF (n=10, P<0.01) and (354.08±35.16)pA/pF (n=10, P>0.05), respectively. Laser irradiation markedly affect the activation and inactivation process of IA. The half-activation voltage and the slope factor of the steady activation curve change under the laser's exposure. The former alters from (-27.05±4.53) mV to (-2.10±3.14) mV (n=10, P<0.01) and the latter from (-26.71±6.15) mV to (-20.70±4.38) mV (n=10, P<0.05). The half-inactivation voltage also changes from (-70.49±7.21) mV to (-81.27±6.26) mV (n=10, P<0.01) and the slope factor of the inactivation curves from 9.47±3.54 mV to 9.58±3.02 mV (n=10, P>0.05). The results indicate that the effect of low power laser on hippocampal neurons could change the current characteristics of transient outward potassium channel of membrane of neurons, and then affect the formation and firing of action potentials. Moreover, physiological function of neurons is adjusted as a result of low power laser irradiation, which might contribute to the restoration and regeneration of injured neurons.

Abstract:In order to assure form accuracy and surface roughness of optic free-form surface of injection mould core, form grinding of free-form surface was conducted in CNC precision grinder by use of precisely dressed and trued arc-shaped coarse diamond grinding wheel to realize effective mirror grinding. The form truing principle of arc-shaped diamond grinding wheel was investigated to establish number control mode of arc-truing, and wheel path algorithm for equal- envelope-height grinding was established to realize CNC grinding of free-form surface. Then, formation of super-smooth ground surface was theoretically analyzed in connection with grinding parameters and wheel topography. The theoretical analysis shows that super-smooth ground surface of nanometer order can been produced by increasing wheel rotating speed, decreasing wheel moving speed and improving wheel topography. Experimental results show that surface roughness of Ra<10 nm may be obtained by use of dressed and trued wheel with wheel moving speed in less than 15 mm/min, and no brittle cracks on microscopic ground surface. The form accuracy of PV < 10 μm and the surface roughness of Ra<20 nm can be obtained when machining the free-form surface of high-speed steel.
Abstract:To make a low cost aerial CCD camera locate a ground target accurately, a new estimating technique using four known ground control points with equal elevation for estimating camera parameter is presented,in which the focal length and external parameters of an aerial camera carried by a parachute, including position and pose angles relative to the world reference frame, can be estimated according to a single aerial image.In this paper,we use direct linear transformation algorithm to compute the homographic matrix between the known ground control points with equal elevation and the corresponding points on the image plane, then establish the relationships between the homographic matrix and the collinearity equations, and finally give the mathematic models for computing the intrinsic and extrinsic parameters of the aerial camera. Two experiments are carried out to examine the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm with indoor simulation control points and outdoor real control points, respectively. The experiment results show that the presented technique can get the camera parameters with relative error of 2% by given the 3-dimension coordinates of four known ground control points and the 2-dimension coordinates of the corresponding image points. The estimated parameters can meet the need of geo-location.

Abstract:The principle of dynamically bending of the crystal in a sagittal focusing monochramator by flexural hinge-based bender was presented and the geometric parameters of bender and crystal were optimized. Then the mechanical properties of bender and crystal were analyzed with Finite Element Method. Finally, the effect of slop error on the incident angle was calculated. The analyzed results indicate that the acceptance angle of the monochromator increases from 1 mrad to 3 mrad, and the horizontal width (FWHM) of the spot on the sample reduces from 12.5 mm to 2.5 mm after replacement.The anticlastic curvature caused by bending is 1 700 times as long as the sagittal curvature, and the incident angle error is only 2.2 μrad. The Von Mize stress on the bender is about 800 MPa. When Beryllium-Cu is selected as the material of the bender, the linear relationship between the curvature of crystal in 0.57~1.72 m and the driving forces in 8~2.67 N is obtained. The analyzed results also indicate that the designing parameters are achievement in that the flux and photo intensity are increased and the requirement of fast and tunable scanning on the XAFS measurement is satisfied at the same time.

Finally, the relationship between the motor voltage, pitch angle and the distorting angle of the connecting rod in the eight groups of curves are achieved by corresponcling to the angles and voltage. The precision of the angles is analyzed,which is proved that this way is effective.

Abstract:Image detection method for carbide tool wear based on laser grating projection is presented. Phase information in undesformed areas that belongs to object shadow and data regression with the least-squares iteration are used to obtain phase distribution parameters on the ideal reference plane. For unnecessary to collect deformed grating images of object reference plane, it reduces operation steps and takes no solution for the phase of object reference plane. Experiments show that the method realizes the on-line measurement by detecting the parameters during the time slots caused by replacing tools of numerical control machine. Also, the measurement data of maximum width, maximum area, circumference and maximum depth in z direction of wear region come to the results that measurement standard deviation and relative accuracy are no more than 0.01. Therefore, this method is a precise 3D profilometry of wear area.

Abstract:An image fusion binarization method based on Self-organization Feature Map(SOFM) neural network is presented. The characteristic and the learning algorithm of SOFM neural network are introduced. The first threshold of the image is derived from the clustering characteristic of SOFM, and it is treated as a initialization of the circulated iteration method to obtain the second threshold of the image. The binarization for the original image is carried on using the second threshold to obtain the first fusing image. Then, the binarization for the original image is performed more again using the improved Bernsen method to obtain the second fusing image. Finally, two fusing images are merged based on the minimum principle of image gray values to get the final binarization image. This method can effectively eliminate the ghost and can also separate the characters very well. Experimental results show that the method is effective, and its binarization effect surpasses Bernsen method and Ostu method obviously, moreover it has good compatibility.

Abstract:By analysing the gray projection algorithm and correlation function curves for detecting motion vector in image sequence in electronic image stabilization technique, a fast searching algorithm on the basis of single peak characteristic is proposed, and compared with the full-search method which can cause time delay. By selecting two points, a and b within the search coverage , calculating and comparing their correlation measure, also judging the search direction, a new search coverage is confirmed, which is one half of the old one in size of coverage. Repeating this steps, the motion vector of image sequence frames can be obtained quickly. Experimental results show that when the size of the original searching coverage is 2n+1, its operation load is n+2 instead of 2n+1 of the full-search method, which reduces the computational load greatly. This method has been applied to ship-borne electronic image stabilizer and confirmed in high calculation speed and high accuracy on the test result.

Abstract:A distortion model based on cubic polynomial is established concerning various linear and nonlinear distortions in the alignment system based on video image for multi-level imprint lithography and a calibration technique based on controlled points is adopted to solve the model. By minimizing the error object function, the indeterminate coefficients of the distortion model are obtained. The calibration results are evaluated by the standard deviation of calibration error, and the results show that the fitting error is 0.22 μm. By introducing distortion correction based on this model, the alignment error due to image geometric distortion in the alignment system is reduced from 2.5 μm to 0.25 μm, which meets the requirement of precise positioning of alignment marks.
Abstract:For tracking in complicated environment,a nonlinear target tracking method based on optimized wavelet features is proposed. Gabor wavelet network (GWN) is used to describe the features of the object. GWN includes a set of wavelets, and each of their parameters is computed by optimization procedure. The tracking framework is based on optimized particle filter and each particle figures a set of possible motion parameters. L-M optimization is then employed to drive the particles to the local peak values,and tracking with optimized particle filters is robust and efficient as a result of multimodality. The tracking result shows that the algorithm is robust to illumination variation and noise, and it also has the strong ability of tracking under local occlusion. Compared with standard particle filter method, the average tracking error of the proposed algorithm is within 1 pixel, which has been reduced by 50%.
Abstract:In order to identify the correct failure code in a vehicular CAN-bus disturbed by the unforeseen damage of the controllers, application of threshol denosing based on wavelet packet decomposition was proposed here. The disturbed signal was decomposed into the multiscale wavelet domain by minimal Shannon entropy criteria. Then, the threshold based on Stein's unbiased risk estimation was used to eliminate the noise in the high frequency coefficients and the double criteria,and holding frequency singleness and little energy losses were used to set the threshold of the low frequency coefficients. Finally, the denoised signal was achieved by the invert WPD. Experimental results show that the S/N radio of the denoising technique in proposed method has been increased 1/3 over that of tranditional method,which can effectively get the correct facult-code while the some controller is damaged in CAN bus.
