Compared with traditional laser Doppler velocimetry, it has the advantages of self-collimation and eliminating the need for a separate photodetector and mixer, which makes the system more compact; moreover, the exploitation of terahertz source is expected to improve the upper limit of velocity measurement. In this paper, the nonlinear dynamic response to the motion of two independent targets is investigated, which manifests itself in the SM interferometric signal. Through the spectrum analysis of the SM signal, velocities and directions of the two targets are obtained. The research results demonstrate the feasibility of using THz-QCL SM interferometric system to sense the motion of targets, and provide a novel technique for laser Doppler velocity measurement of multiple targets with high speed..

Traditional rAbstract：The detection of marine targets is an important part of radar signal processing, and has important application value in military and civilian fields. For the radar signal processing of marine targets, the presence of sea clutter has a great influence on the performance of the detection algorithm. Traditional radar signal processing methods are mostly based on statistical theory, and the detection performance under complex environmental conditions and diverse target characteristics may decrease significantly. In recent years, deep learning technology has developed rapidly, providing technical support for reliable target detection methods. This paper summarizes the development of target detection algorithms and deep learning methods in recent years. Starting from the data structure and dimensions of radar signals, using deep learning theory, the paper proposes a multi ?channel fusion flowchart based on two ?dimensional images, three ?dimensional frames processing, and multi ?dimension information fusion intelligent processing framework. Taking the detection of marine targets in navigation radar images as an example, a Precise ROI ?Faster R?CNN radar image detection algorithm is proposed. It is compared with the classic method of target detection through the training and testing of the constructed navigation radar dataset. It is indicated that the proposed method is an effective technical approach with higher detection accuracy and better generalization ability compared with Classical False Alarm Rate(CFAR) and Faster R? CNN methods. It can be an effective solution for intelligent navigation and target detection of marine radars..

In order to accurately determine the position of dangerous chemical gas leak, satellite positioning method is adopted according to the four-receive one-transmit inversion relation between the sensor and the sound source, without regarding the speed of the satellite and the difference between sending and receiving clockIn order to accurately determine the position of dangerous chemical gas leak, satellite positioning method is adopted according to the four-receive one-transmit inversion relation between the sensor and the sound source, without regarding the speed of the satellite and the difference between sending and receiving clock. The nonlinear overdetermined equations of sound source location are obtained, and an optimization algorithm combining Quantum Genetic Algorithm(QGA) and Fmincon constraints is proposed to solve the equations, which effectively solves the problem that other methods are easy to fall into local convergence. Experimental results show that compared with Least Squares(LS), Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) and QGA, the improved method has high convergence performance, high positioning efficiency and high positioning accuracy. Under the same condition, the method improves significantly in terms of important performance evaluation indexes such as Average Root Mean Square Error(ARMSE), Relative Position Error(RPE) and Bessel's Mean Square Error(BMSE)..

For Visual-Inertial Odometry(VIO), complex scenes, such as visual occlusion and moving objects may bring about abnormal visual measurements, which leads to dramatically drop of the positioning accuracy. To this end, a new method is proposed for detecting and processing abnormal visual measurements in VIO. Firstly, by sFor Visual-Inertial Odometry(VIO), complex scenes, such as visual occlusion and moving objects may bring about abnormal visual measurements, which leads to dramatically drop of the positioning accuracy. To this end, a new method is proposed for detecting and processing abnormal visual measurements in VIO. Firstly, by selecting the detection index, setting the prior threshold and designing the detection classifier, the classification and detection of abnormal visual measurement are realized. After that, a multi-sensor fusion strategy and an adaptive error weighting algorithm are proposed, and these algorithms timely eliminate the influence of abnormal visual measurement which is inconsistent with the actual motion. Finally, the detection and processing algorithm of abnormal visual measurement are integrated into Open Keyframe-based Visual-Inertial SLAM(OKVIS), and the Error Detection and Solution of Visual-Inertial Odometry(EDS-VIO) framework is proposed. Evaluation results on the complex scene simulated dataset show that, compared with OKVIS, EDS-VIO has achieved better performance on the dataset, the average location error has been reduced from 1.045 m to 0.437 m. EDS-VIO improves the positioning accuracy and robustness of the VIO in complex scenes..

Without loss of generality, a reflectarray antenna that works in the X-band is designed with a square patch structure. The effects of longitudinal defocusing at 15°, 30°, and 45°scanning angles and lateral defocusing at 10°, 20°, and 30°scanning angles on the performance of beam scanning reflectarray antennas are studied. The measured results show that when the scanning angle is small, the lateral defocus causes the beam direction to change, and the beamwidth does not change much. When reducing the size of the longitudinal defocus of the feed, the sidelobe level is reduced, and the gain at the center frequency is improved. The larger the scanning angle is, the more obvious the effect becomes. This is beneficial to improve the large-angle scanning capability of the beam scanning reflective array antenna..

To solve the above-mentioned problem, this paper proposes a high level and low level information-rich multi-scale biomedical image segmentation algorithm based on U-Net Encoder-Decoder structure and atrous separable convolution. The proposed algorithm consists of feature extraction network and multi-scale semantic segmentation prediction network. The feature extraction network uses atrous separable convolution and similar residual blocks to replace the up-sampling, down-sampling and convolution blocks in the original U-Net respectively, which maximizes the retention of information while increasing the perception field of vision. Channel attention mechanism is proposed to highlight the expression of core features and suppress the expression of unrelated region of background. The convolutional features with image-level features encoding global context are data mined at multiple scales to boost the performance further. Simulation experiments are conducted on collected embryos and DRIVE datasets, the experience results show that the proposed method has higher accuracy and robustness compared with U-Net and its derivative model..

LIU Hongli, and HAN Honglei

Distributing the Monte Carlo errors as blue-noise in the screen space significantly improves the visual fidelity. However, it is difficult to achieve such a goal efficiently for complex scenes with arbitrary sample counts and integration dimensionalities. A simple yet effective approach is proposed to deal with this problem. Firstly, bluenoise masks are adopted to scramble the quasi-random sequences, such that the rendering errors have a blue-noise spectrum at low sampling counts. Then, a filtering method is introduced, and the consequent rendering errors maintain the blue-noise spectrum at higher sample counts. Compared with several related works, the proposed method can efficiently obtain more stable blue noise results in different virtual scenes. The proposed method not only produces stable blue-noise errors but also has high computational efficiency, which is suitable for modern Monte Carlo-based renderers..

The reported researches are mostly concentrated on radiation hardness of MEMS devices' detecting circuits, while the radiation degradation mechanism of MEMS sensing part is still not well understood. Since MEMS device's micro-sensing part and detecting circuit must operate together, it is challenging to accurately distinguish the attributed degradation ratio of micro-sensing part when operating in the whole device, and acquire its radiation degradation mechanism by using micro and nano measuring techniques. To settle this issue, a radiation degradation measuring technique regarding to MEMS discrete parts is developed, and the radiation degradation attributed to MEMS sensing part is successfully extracted. Then, specifically fabricated MEMS contrast chips and electrical measuring techniques are utilized to study its radiation degradation mechanism. It is found that the radiation degradation attributed to MEMS sensing part is resulting from charging effect of the interface thin oxide layer, rather than charging effect of the parasite capacitor or changes of different resistor parameters. These trapped charges in the interface layer will produce an external electrostatic force on the movable proof mass, and then induce the output drift of MEMS accelerometer. In conclusion, this research experimentally infers a clear understanding of the degradation mechanism of MEMS sensing part under ionizing radiation environment, and it shows useful guidance on the future radiation hardness design of MEMS devices..
