Liu Dong, Dai Congming, and Wei Heli
The profiles of spectral pass bands′ limb radiance by SABER(Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry) were simulated in the bands of 15 μm and 4.3 μm emission for CO2 by using the updated software of SHARC, and the simulated results were compared with corresponding SABER measurements to analyze thThe profiles of spectral pass bands′ limb radiance by SABER(Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry) were simulated in the bands of 15 μm and 4.3 μm emission for CO2 by using the updated software of SHARC, and the simulated results were compared with corresponding SABER measurements to analyze the CO2 non-LTE radiative transfer properties and to validate the model. The comparisons show that SHARC can simulate the middle latitude atmosphere condition′s CO2 limb radiation with a reasonable accuracy for applications. However, for some special atmosphere conditions, such as Arctic summer′s atmosphere, the model has some deviations because of its algorithm′s shortcoming. It is expected to improve the algorithm to contain more sophisticated chemical-kinetic processes and achieve better middle and upper atmospheric parameters, which make more accurate simulation of non-LTE radiative transfer properties..

Xu Mengchun, and Xu Qingshan
Under the given condition, reflected intensity of the top of atmosphere and transmitted intensity arriving at the ground were simulated when aerosol particles average effective radius and complex refractive imaginary part index was different, as well as the effect of aerosol vertical distribution on reflection and tranUnder the given condition, reflected intensity of the top of atmosphere and transmitted intensity arriving at the ground were simulated when aerosol particles average effective radius and complex refractive imaginary part index was different, as well as the effect of aerosol vertical distribution on reflection and transmission intensity and flux of different height. The result shows that when the aerosol optical thickness is fixed, the effect of aerosol vertical distribution on reflection and transmission is great under 15 km, and the smaller aerosol particles average effective radius and complex refractive index imaginary part of aerosol particles, then the larger reflected intensity of the top of atmosphere and transmitted intensity arriving at the ground. Therefore, in order to accurately calculate atmospheric radiation, not only the aerosol optical thickness but also aerosol particles average effective radius, complex refractive index and aerosol vertical distribution should be taken into consideration, and just using the empirical value of the aerosol model will bring bigger error..

First, the "arm probability" was introduced to the linear SNR model based on fixed frequency multi-pulse accumulation detection system. Monte Carlo simulation and theory simulation all proved that with the increased laser power, the SNR got larger and became stable. Then the range deviation model was settled, with the increased laser power, range precision enhanced and became stable by Monte Carlo simulation. Experimental results indicate that based on high background noise, the maximum of SNR can be obtained with emitting laser power at about 400 μW at 50 ms integrated time. Range precision reaches the optimal level at 6 mm. Finally, theory and experiment all prove that the optimal performance receiving of SNR and precision is achieved on single photon counting ranging system..

Generally, it depends on the leading information from radars to find targets. Once the information′s error exceeds the field of the device, it′s hard for the optoelectronic tracking device to find the target. A quick helical search method in small sky scope was proposed based on the leading information. According to system model simulation and experiments, the method helped the large optoelectronic tracking device to capture target quickly when the target′s leading information error outranged the field. The acquisition probability of targets was increased from 20% to 70% when the leading information error was less than twice of the device field. The turntable runned smoothly when applying this search method, and the searching parameters can be changed flexibly according to properties of different optoelectronic devices, features of targets and targets guiding error. It greatly improves acquisition probability of targets, and it is a kindpractical and effective method for large optoelectronic device to find targets quickly in small sky scope. This method has high versatility..

On the basis of introducing working principleThe accuracy of traditional optical power acquisition instruments is not high, so they are unable to show the change of the optical power clearly in short term during the experiment, while data collection system for collecting voltage can be a good solution to this problem. On the basis of introducing working principle of 1 310 nm SLD light source, a driving circuit was designed, which can make SLD operate steadily by controlling current under the condition with a constant temperature. With the theoretical analysis and experimental verification, a new method of monitoring SLD output optical power by its voltage drop was provided, then true and reliable experimental data were obtained. From the driving experiment for SLD, it has proved that the output power has a certain relationship with driving current and voltage, and results show that the output power has a good linear relationship with the current, a good positive correlation index with the voltage. Taking advantage of collected voltage to monitor SLDoutput light power can greatly improve the test precision and data resolution, at the same time provides new electrical parameters for the SLD degenerate life test..

The more the error parameters, the difficult calibration process, and the rocket can not do line movement during calibration stage before launch, which let the most of the error parameters unobservable. If the main parameters affecting navigation accuracy can be determined, the calibration algorithm and the calibration process can be simplified, the efficiency of calibration is improved. Based on this idea, the rotation projectile was compared to the rotation INS, starting from the error equation, the errors on the flight onboard INS was analyzed by extracting the DC component, the main parameters affecting navigation accuracy were drawn. Then a way was designed by using the speed error change around motorization maneuver. The differential equations needn′t be solved, the amount of computation was reduced greatly. Simulation results show that simple calibration scheme solves the problem of lack of incentives during launch preparation stage, and the problem can not be effectively calibrated..

However, few studies have been reported on the removal rate characteristics of silicon carbides(SiC) in high finish quality polishing processes. SiC was an important ceramic material for many critical industrial and aerospace applications. A theoretical investigation and a series of polishing experiments in computer controlled precision polishing process were presented. And a better understanding of removal mechanisms of SiC surfaces was also proposed for optimizing surface quality. Head speed, tool pressure, tool offset and polishing angle were selected to analyze the surface removal tendency. The Taguchi method was used as an efficient method to optimize the polishing conditions and reduce excessive experimental requiring. Moreover, the results imply the polishing parameters combinations required to achieve the desired surface finish and better application of removal characteristic..

The grating has different transmission characteristics with different oblique angle. So, the different transmission peak could be obtained with different phase shift inserted into different positions. Then it was used in SSB modulation scheme as a filter. In the scheme, the lower sideband experiences higher attenuation due to the negative slope in reflectivity spectrum. Thus the conversion from dual-sideband(DSB) to single sideband with carrier(SSB+C) can be easily achieved by using only one phase-shifted superstructure fiber Bragg grating. Also, the optical carrier-to-sideband ratio(OCSR) can be optimized by using grating with different oblique angle. In this paper, the OCSR could be optimized from 33.02 dB to 1.31 dB and a 60 GHz millimeter-wave was detected after photodiode. What′s more, a min BER of 1.966e-44 with 30-km fiber length was implemented which means that only using one phase-shifted superstructure FBG can improve the link performance greatly..

The effect of characteristic parameters of the detector under different work status and the local oscillator power on the SNR was discussed. The effects on SNR was verified through the experiment. Results show that the characteristic parameters of the detector limit the value of the local oscillator power. Actually, the maximum SNR is less than the theoretical value in coherent optical communication, the optimum value of local oscillator power is greater than the theoretical value, and the closer the two polarization direction of the light beam, the greater the output SNR, the smaller the optimum value of local oscillator power..

The results show that(1) the more backward pumps generates the smaller mean PDG values under constant number of pumps,(2) when the total number of pumps and the number of backward pumps are both constant, the backward pump wavelength has little effect on the PDG, and (3) the PDG of a bidirectionally pumped FRA is mainly determined by pump-signal Raman interaction. These results are useful and important for reducing the PDG of an FRA..

By analyzing thermal radiation propagating in IR windows, a participating medium, an evaluation method for aero-thermo-radiation effect of the non-isothermal IR windows was proposed, based on the experimental results of the isothermal state, include self-radiation and transmittance. Aim to an MWIR detection system of a hypersonic vehicle, aero-thermo-radiation effect of a sapphire IR window was evaluated in 3.7-4.8 μm. The results indicate that, as the sapphire IR window is exposed in high-temperature and high-speed airflow, the aero-thermo-radiation effect of the window intensifies as temperature rises rapidly, the transmittance drops about 10%, still bigger than 0.9, otherwise the self-radiation enhances 458 times approximately, equal to that of blackbody about 125 ℃. For sapphire windows in 100-350 ℃, which thickness are smaller than 20 mm, as thickness increases, the transmittance decreases, self-radiation increases, and total radiation behind sapphire windows is increased, of which the ratio of self-radiation increases. So, self-radiation would drive detector into saturation easily, of which the influence on the MWIR detection system is bigger than that of transmittance..

The dim-small target detecting technology under complex background is a difficult subject in infrared focal plane array rotation search system. In order to effectively suppress background noise and reduce false alarm caused by complex background, constant false alarm rate algorithm based on weighted feature of linear target was presented aiming at the research of imaging properties of infrared focal plane array rotation system. Firstly, the discrete potential target image was obtained initially by background suppression and threshold segmentation. Next, three characteristics of linear target were analyzed and the total weighted value was calculated by quantifying and weighting. Finally, the weighted value was mapped to the discrete target image and the image sequence about the weighted value was achieved, then a new segmentation threshold obtained by CFAR algorithm was applied to suppress the background interference and reduce false alarm and false positives. The experiment results show that the proposed method can significantly reduce the false alarm caused by the complex background in infrared focal plane array rotation search system and can ensure to detect the dim-small target..

Experimental statistics and simulated results show that the increase of the excitation intensity and the excitation duration will enhance crack heating. However, the increase of the engagement force will enhance firstly and then weaken crack heating. Moreover, the effects of the test conditions on crack heating are interactive, and inappropriate test conditions will induce a test-stopping alarm. Based on the effect analysis of testing conditions on crack thermal signals and alarm incidents, a multivariate nonlinear regression model and a logistics regression model were adopted to estimate probability of detection and alarm during test, which will finally determine the value range of test conditions. The optimization methods proposed in this paper will provide theoretical direction for test scheme in sonic infrared imaging technology..

In view of the reflection method with big defect depth quantitative detection error, transmission infrared thermal wave method was systematically analyzed in order to improve the detection precision. The principle of infrared measurement of defect depth was discussed by analyzing the material in pulsed thermal excitations of one-dimensional heat transfer model. The relationship between the characteristics of time and defect depth was established by the peak time method of the first order differential of surface temperature, so the quantitative detection on the depth of defect was realized. The sample of PVC flat with artificial slot wedge defects was used. The depth of defects were detected by comparative experiments between transmission and reflection methods, and the measurement errors were analyzed. The results show that reflection method in quantitative calculation for defects requires selecting reference region, while transmission method does not rely on the reference avoiding the error resulted from it. Moreover, transmission method directly heats surface defects, so short response time can be obtained and the defect depth precision are improved greatly by solving the characteristic time of the defect..

Yu Zhaoan, Yao Zhihong, Liang Shengfa, Zhang Jinchuan, and Lv Tieliang
The line width of pulsed quantum cascade lasers(QCL) increases with the device heating up during the driving pulse, so QCL drivers need to generate ultra-short current pulse. Generally, pulses of 5 ns to 15 ns durations can reach the Fourier transform limit. However, due to the existence of parasitic parameters, narrowThe line width of pulsed quantum cascade lasers(QCL) increases with the device heating up during the driving pulse, so QCL drivers need to generate ultra-short current pulse. Generally, pulses of 5 ns to 15 ns durations can reach the Fourier transform limit. However, due to the existence of parasitic parameters, narrow pulses will lead to overshoot or oscillation. Therefore, the current commercial QCL drivers can not meet this requirement. To obtain narrower line width of QCLs, a frequency compensation method based on conventional pulse constant current circuit was proposed in this work to eliminate overshoot and oscillation. And a stable pulse laser driving circuit was also designed which can output 0-2 A pulse current, with 8.4-200 ns pulse width, <4 ns rising time, and <1%overshoot. Function test was carried out with a QCL with 4.6 μm center wavelength made from Institute of Semiconductor of ChineseAcademy of Sciences, and a Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The laser line width decreased almost linearly from 0.35 cm-1 to 0.12 cm-1, when the driving pulse width decreased from 100 ns to 10 ns. Experimental results show that the driver is able to output stable narrow pulses, which is suitable for narrow line width driving of QCLs and their applications..

According to the design requirements, low altitude radar work situation was simulated by the wave tank facility to solve the difficulty of actual sea environment testing, and the quantitative control of influence factors of sea surface laser scattering was realized. By using the laser scattering measurement system, the near field laser scattering data of various states and different beam irradiation angles were obtained, and the laser scattering characteristics of sea surface with regular sinusoidal wave and irregular PM spectrum were given by statistical analysis. The result shows that there are large differences between sea surface and Lambertian surface and mirror reflection should be main ingredients in the sea surface scattering distribution. Laser scattering echo fluctuation changes with the spatial wavelength of the sea surface waveand the cattering size increases with the increase of grazing angle. Furthermore, the higher the sea condition is, the stronger the corresponding scattering echo is at a fixed grazing angle, but scattering echo size will not change with the sea conditions when the grazing angle is large enough..

Power distribution of moving heat source was implemented into DFLUX subroutine, written in FORTRAN programming language to simulate the temperature distribution during the laser transmission welding process. The effect of process parameters on the weld strength and weld width was analyzed. Data gained by numerical simulation was compared to data obtained by laser transmission welding experiments, and good agreement was found between the two trends. It was observed that for a particular value of the laser power, good bonding between two thermoplastic materials is a function of laser scanning speed. Too high speed will not produce any significant increase in temperature at the two material interfaces to have a good chemical bonding. On the other hand, too slow speed will cause excessive increase in temperature resulting in burnout condition for polycarbonate. For the ranges of parameters investigated in the current study, it was observed that for alaser heat flux of 40 W, good bonding occurs for a laser scanning of 40 mm/s. This shows that the finite element analysis can be used for optimization of process parameters..

It transmits a large fraction of its energy to the hole walls by radiative and convective heat transport, thereby contributing to the radial expansion of the hole. The hole depth growth rate have linear increase with pulse number when the pulse number is under 6, after that it becomes slower and slower until remain stable, which is mainly due to plasma shielding effect..

Groove surface Groove surface texture was widely used in the frictional mechanical part, such as mechanical seal, cylinder liner and piston ring, whose performance depends on its geometric parameter of the texture. Therefore, it is important to process the surface texture efficiently with accurate geometric parameter. Groove surface textures were fabricated on high-speed steel by lasers with different output powers, repetition frequencies and scanning speeds. Comprehensive experiments with three levels and three factors were designed to study the relationships between texture topographies and the three processing parameters. The experimental results showed that the depth and width of the groove surface texture slightly increased firstly and then decreased with the rise of laser repetition frequency. Moreover, with the incensement of laser scanning speed, the depth of the groove surface texture increased firstly and then decreased, but the width of the groove surface texture continued to rise. Variance analysis showed that laser scanning speed and repetition frequency had more obvious influence on the width and depth of groove surface texture thanthe output power. High-quality groove surface texture would be processed on the high-speed steel by laser with the output power of 10W to 14W, the repetition frequency of 20kHz to 30kHz and the scanning speed of about 1000mm/s. Meanwhile, indentation testing indicated that the hardness on marginal area of surface texture markedly increased..

Unlike existing deblurring methods to remove 2D blur for single observed image without considering relationship of blur kernels in multiple observed images, the relationship of different PSF paths of multiple observed images was explored. The movement in three-dimension space was projected into each observed image planes, hence, the inherent relationship between the two PSF paths of two observed images can be set up. At first, motion blur kernels of two view images were estimated using single observed image debluring method and the blur kernels with one pixel width was refined. When having estimated two PSF paths, the other PSF paths could be calculated and optimized by using the relationship of PSF paths in multiple observed images. Then 3D blur of the observed images could be removed by using the proposed method. The experiment results for multiple observed images demonstrate that the proposed approach is efficient and effective in removing 3D blur and reconstruction..

Sum of weighted absolute differences(SWAD) matching algorithm and sub-pixel fitting algorithm were used to extract precise position of the target. The template was updated during tracking. The conventional infinite impulse response filter approach used for template updating was improved. A variable coefficient template updating method was proposed. This method had small amount of computations, and creditability evaluation was not needed. The template updating coefficient was determined by gray values of current template and current best matching area. Images with different target brightness, and images after scale transformation for simulating target attitude change, were used to compare matching error of proposed method and conventional method. Results show that method proposed in this paper has better adaptability to changes of target attitude. Finally, collimator and simulation target were used to simulate far-field non-cooperative target. Indoor demonstration experiment was set up and the experiment shows that high-precision target tracking with image matching is feasible..

An efficient lossy compression algorithm based on spectral classification was presented in this paper.

Then, orbitdetermination cases using data from single station and two stations were formed. For all orbit determination cases, data from either full pass or shorter pass were used in orbit computations. Result shows that the Orbit Prediction(OP) results using angular data are more stable than those using ranging data. Specifically, about 75% of 1-2 day OPs using angular data of two 90 second passes have accuracy better than 20″.

But The structure of laser retro-reflector array dominates the distribution of the effective reflection area and influences the intensity of echo signals. However, for the special purpose of compact experimental satellites the observational activities are only performed in the certain sky region by the ground station. But the laser retro-reflector needs tens of square centimeters of the effective reflection area, and the weight and size are limited. For that the reasonable design of the normal pointing of the cube corners within the retro-reflectors array should be implemented in order to achieve the requirements of large reflection area.

Generally, the former is faster but more sensitive to the noises, while the latter is more robust but suffers from the problems of slow iterative speed and high time consuming. To solve this problem, a new path independent phase unwrapping method was proposed, which was based on the zonal reconstruction technique. Using this method the wrapped phase in the rectangle pupil can be unwrapped directly without any iteration, and the sample-recombining acceleration strategy was designed to reduce the calculation time greatly which made the algorithm faster than other path independent methods. In addition, to unwrap the phase in the irregular pupil the Gerchberg type iteration was used which can converge in a few steps. The precision of the direct unwrapping for the regular pupil was validated by the simulations, as well as the effect of the acceleration strategy. Besides, the ability to process irregular pupil problem was demonstrated by unwrapping the phase obtained in the experiment..
