Xu Xingfen, Cao Yiping, Fu Guangkai, Chen Cheng, and Wang Yapin
A pixel matching method in on-line three-dimensional measurement based on normalized equiphase plane was proposed. Only one fixed sinusoidal fringe was needed to project on a measured object moving on the pipeline. While the object was coming to some positions with a certain adjacent displacement, the deformed patternsA pixel matching method in on-line three-dimensional measurement based on normalized equiphase plane was proposed. Only one fixed sinusoidal fringe was needed to project on a measured object moving on the pipeline. While the object was coming to some positions with a certain adjacent displacement, the deformed patterns modulated by the object were captured synchronously by the CCD camera. Dealing the captured deformed patterns with FTP method, the phase information of the object in those positions could be predicted and normalized, and the normalized equiphase plane was transformed into integer as the mask to assist the pixel matching, which not only realized the one-to-one corresponding of the object, but normalization reduced the error introduced by these differences of the object′s unwrapped phase in different positions caused by the object′s movement, further binarization of the phase feature improved the pixel matching′s speed as well. The simulation result of the "peaks" function object with the max height 8 mm showed the RMS was 0.021 mm. Meanwhile, as for time spent of the pixel matching, the average time spent with the proposed method was about 2 multiples faster than the method based on phase prediction. The object measurement also showed its feasibility and validity of the proposed method. The proposed method could not only guarantee the accuracy of the online 3D measurement, but improve the measurement speed apparently..

Testing results show that this glass posses high nonlinear characteristics and wide infrared transmission windows in the infrared region. The third-order nonlinear coefficient was tested to be n2=6.72×10-18 m2/W @ 4 μm by a Z-scan technique. Two kinds of chalcogenide glass infrared fiber grating optical switches were designed with this glass. The reflection spectrum and grating wavelength shift of optical switches were calculated with the distributed time-domain transfer matrix method (TD-TMM) and non-linear coupling equations. Results show that the Bragg wavelength can be flexibly tuned by modulating the input intensity and optical switch can be achieved. It was found that the power threshold is about 1.6 GW/cm2 for an optical switch with a modulation depth of 1×10-3 in a uniform chalcogenide Bragg fiber grating and the power threshold can be significantly reduced to about 210 MW/cm2 in a phase-shift chalcogenide fiber grating with a modulation depth of only 3×10-4..

In order to provide theoretical basis for experimental study on the application of silver nanocube coupled with silver film in sensing, the electric properties of the coupled system were analyzed usingThe coupled structure of metal nanoparticles and metal film has more superior physical properties than unit structure. In order to provide theoretical basis for experimental study on the application of silver nanocube coupled with silver film in sensing, the electric properties of the coupled system were analyzed using FDTD excited at the wavelength of 514.5 nm. The results show that the electric field distribution of the coupled structure of silver nanocube and silver film was affected by the size of silver nanocube and the thickness of the dielectric spacer between silver nanocube and silver film. The local electric field of the coupled structure was stronger than that of unit of silver nanocube. When there was no dielectric spacer, the local electric field was mainly localized on the upper surface of the silver nanocube for the coupled structure. When there was dielectric spacer, the local electric field would be partially localized in the dielectric spacer. Therefore, the ideal local electric field can be obtained by adjusting the size of silver nanocube or the thickness of spacer between silver nanocube and silver film for requirement..

Real-time compact MSI has desirable features including high efficiency, robust to vibration, and a small volume. A two-dimensional narrow band multichannel micro-filter array (2DNBMFA) is an essential part to apply real-time compact MSI to in-vivo optical pathological diagnostic fluorescent imaging, and ultimately result in a real-time compact multispectral fluorescent imaging technology (MSFI). Firstly, the structural pattern was designed and the important technical parameters of the 2DNBMFA were determined, which was the key element to be used in the real-time compact MSFI. Secondly, the 2DNBMFA was manufactured which had a 2-dimensional spatial resolution and a high optical density. Experimental results indicate that the developed micro-filter array has a spatial resolution of 52 μm×52 μm, full-width at half-maximum of 24 nm, optical density of 4, weak cross-talk between different optical channels. All these suggest that the real-time compact MSFI technology is technically feasible, which has the potential to capture the 2-dimensinal distribution of multiple fluorescent probes at any instant time. The real-time compact MSFI, if successfully be developed, would have great significance in medical in-vivo diagnostic imaging and in biological research area where it is hot to use multiple fluorescent probes as biological markers for a better understanding of various life processes..

In order to meet the urgent needs of online metrology of the ultra-high current in the field of industry, national defense and key scientific research, a value transfer method of the ultra-high current standard based on the range self-expansion characteristic of the fiber-optic current sensor (FOCS) was presented. The In order to meet the urgent needs of online metrology of the ultra-high current in the field of industry, national defense and key scientific research, a value transfer method of the ultra-high current standard based on the range self-expansion characteristic of the fiber-optic current sensor (FOCS) was presented. The mathematical model of the sensing coil was established by utilizing the differential Jones matrix methods. The effect mechanism of the linear birefringence on the range self-expansion characteristic of the sensor was analyzed, and the excellent range self-expansion capability of the FOCS with a spun high- birefringence sensing fiber coil was proved. By means of the magnification effect of the number of fiber loops to the Faraday effect, the sensor can be calibrated with the relatively low equivalent ampere-turn current. The flexible interferometer-type FOCS utilizing the digital closed-loop signal-detecting scheme was developed. The spun high birefringence optical fiber was packaged into a sensing element, which can be bent into a sensing coil without opening the current-carrying bus bar. It is shown by the experimental results that the sensor achieves the accuracy within ±0.1% for the DC equivalent current between 10 kA and 210 kA. For a power-frequency equivalent current of 25 kA, the scale factor error of the sensor can meet the need of 0.2S accuracy class specified in IEC 60044-8. The bandwidth of the sensor is more than 10 kHz..

In order to solve the problems of low precision and poor reliability in traditional monitoring methods, a negative pressure wave-based pipeline leak monitoring method using optical fiber pressure sensors was proposed. According to the propagation law of negative pressure wave in the pipeline, by increasing the density of sensors along the pipeline, the signal attenuation would be reduced, and a clearer negative pressure wave falling inflection information could be acquired. According to the leak difference in sensor section, a new adaptive method based on leaking distance was proposed for calculating the velocity of negative pressure wave. Finally, the optical fiber and traditional negative pressure wave leakage monitoring methods were analyzed respectively, experimental results showed that the leakage location error of fiber optic monitoring method was less than 1.6% when the leakage was 5% of the total pipeline transportation. Compared with traditional monitoring method, fiber optic monitoring method could obtain higher sensitivity and positioning accuracy, has more broad application prospects..

According to the generalized Huygens-Fresnel pThe intensity and phase of the beam propagated in the atmospheric turbulence were modulated by the effects of atmospheric turbulence, and then the speckle was formed in the far field. The partially coherent Gaussian-Schell Model (GSM) beam was taken as the research object. According to the generalized Huygens-Fresnel principle and the mode of the modified Von Karman spectrum, the expressions of the effective radius and the mean speckle radius of receiver beam were derived. The expressions were used to analyze the effects of the beam source parameters and atmospheric turbulence on the effective radius and the mean speckle radius. The numerical results show that the greater the waist radius of the beam source, the smaller the coherent length is, the smaller the wavelength is, and then the smaller the effects of atmospheric turbulence on the effective radius and the mean speckle radius of receiver beam are. The smaller refractive-index structure constant, the greater the beam spread and the smaller the mean speckle radius is. The effective radius and the mean speckle radius of receiver beam decrease with increasing inner-scale of turbulence, but have nearly no change with increasing outer-scale of turbulence. An important reference value will be provided for the design of the Acquisition, Tracking and Pointing (ATP) in atmospheric laser communication system..

These factors cause the deviation between the optical elements, which affects the internal There are some inevitable problems such as vibration, instable connection between the optical elements, hot expansion and cold contraction in the practical application of optical voltage transducer (OVT) based on Pockels effect. These factors cause the deviation between the optical elements, which affects the internal electric field distribution in the electro-optic crystal. The OVT based on convergent polarized light interference was adopted as an example. The simulation analysis and experimental research show that when the incident light has a ±0.5° deviation or the BGO crystal has a ±1° deviation, it leads to electric field integral errors of about 0.107% or 0.124%, respectively. As the OVT needs to guarantee the accuracy of 0.2%, the effect induced by the electric field integral errors cannot be ignored. Therefore, a new method of medium enwrapping was proposed and the alumina ceramic was selected as the medium to wrap out of the electro-optic crystal. So that the maximum electric field integral errors can be reduced to 0.001% or 0.003% respectively. The experimental result and its applications show that the medium enwrapping method is simple, practical and effective..

The on-line analysis of heat value of coal can provide important reference for optimizing and adjusting the boiler operation in real time. The heat values of bituminous coal samples were quantitatively analyzed by laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy(LIBS). The 1 064 nm laser radiation emitted by a Q-switched Nd: YAG laser was utilized for laser ablation and plasma generation in air. The partial least square (PLS) method and the dominant factor based PLS method were used to improve the measurement accuracy of heat value of coal. In the dominant factor based PLS model, the molecular emissions of C2 and CN were utilized to build the dominant factor model. The coefficient of determination and the root-mean-square error of prediction of the PLS model were 0.94 and 1.46 MJ/kg, respectively; and those values for the dominant factor based PLS model were 0.99 and 1.18 MJ/kg, respectively. The results show that LIBS has great potential for the on-line analysis of heat value of coal..

By choosing the method of rear support in centre by single point, the mass of both mirror and subassembly was decreased and the design of the support structure was simplified. By using multi-objective optimization design, the surface figure accuracy under the load case of gravity in Z-direction was improved. A flexible support structure dedicated to the mirror supported in centre was designed to overcome its shortcomings of low stiffness and low dynamic reliability. The integrated performance of the mirror was simulated and compared with that of the mirror mounted via rear three points. It shows that the mirror supported in centre has a lighter mass of 3.36 kg and the lightweight ratio is 87% compared with the solid mirror, and that the mass of the mirror subassembly is decreased 24% of the one supported by three points. The surface figure accuracy RMS of the mirror reaches respectively 2.2, 2.1 and 7.5 nm when gravity load is applied in the directions of X, Y and Z axes, which is better than that of the one supported by three points. Furthermore, the RMS is 2.8 nm when the mirror subassembly is under the load condition of uniform temperature rise of 4 ℃, which is far less than the requirement of RMS≤12 nm. Otherwise, the first order natural frequency of the mirror subassembly is 135 Hz, and the maximum rigid body displacement is 3.96 ?滋m. The proposed design method not only reduces the mass of the mirror with its support structure extremely, but also ensures the surface figure accuracy of the mirror and the dynamic and static rigid of the mirror subassembly requirement, provides a new approach to lightweight and optimization design for the same type space mirrors..

Considering the statistical property of underwater turbulence, here 3D covariance matrix was used to model the statistical property and continuity of underwater turbulence. Here overlapping allocation matrix was put forward and the simulation of multilayer phase screen was optimized. Furthermore, the relation between computational efficiency and the characterization of statistical property of underwater turbulence was analyzed. The results show that overlapping allocation matrix can improve the computational efficiency for a layer of phase screen. Also utilizing 3D covariance matrix could obtain the correlation of phase screens, which is in conformity with theory for statistical property in a layer. However, utilizing 3D covariance matrix led to deviation in small scale and large scale. This research expends original independent 2D phase screen into the multilayer phase screen which has spatial correlation. And that is why this model is more correspond to the reality of underwater turbulence..

With the lack of study on the frictional heating simulation and interior heating mechanism during the defect heating and diffusion, the electric-force analogy method was utilized to build the finite element model of the ultrasonic transducer and the metal plate with the fatigue crack. Simulation results show that the crack heating periodically increases with the modulated ultrasonic excitation, and the heating area of crack faces is closed to the excitation side by the influence of the engagement force. Based on the simulation results and the Green function, a theoretic model was introduced to describe the heat diffusion of the crack frictional heating and the heat distribution of the crack vicinity was demonstrated. Further, the depth of the heat source was estimated with the ratio between top and lower surface of the test plate(P-value), which shows consistency between simulation and theoretic results. This study aims to enrich the theoretic basis in ultrasonic infrared lock-in thermography..

Chen Fei, Chai Jinhua, and Liu Xin
A scheme for laser jamming using quasi parallel light interference was proposed. On the basis of the interference theoretical analysis, the multi-beam quasi parallel light interference images and interference intensity maximum value of two beams, three beams and four beams were obtained by He-Ne laser, and the interferA scheme for laser jamming using quasi parallel light interference was proposed. On the basis of the interference theoretical analysis, the multi-beam quasi parallel light interference images and interference intensity maximum value of two beams, three beams and four beams were obtained by He-Ne laser, and the interference images and the light intensity distribution were got by simulation. Both theoretical and experimental results show that the patterns of quasi parallel light interference images depend on beam direction angle. In certain direction angle, there is bright stripes or bright spots of interference in the middle of the interference field. The distance between interference stripes or spots is decided by the angle between two beams of light. When the value of the angle between two beams is no more than 0.5 mrad, the experiment data is consistent with the simulation data, and the interference intensity maximum is close to the result of theoretical maximum, that is the light intensity maximum of two, three and four beams of quasi parallel light interference are four, eight, fifteen times the size of the light intensity of single beam. The effect evaluation and the test of validity of laser jamming scheme were given..

The closed form of CRBs for lidar signals with Gaussian noise was derived strictly in this paper. The relationships between the CRBs and factors including the target position, the length of processing data and SNR were analyzed. The simulation results indicate that decreasing the azimuth angle and pitch angle or increasing the data length and SNR can minish the CRBs of estimated parameters, while, the lower bounds are insensitive to the information of the noise variance. The mean square error of two frequently used estimators for micro-Doppler parameters were simulated and compared with the CRBs. In the end, the meaning of the strict derivation of CRBs in this paper was presented by comparing with the result got from approximate process..

The target′s surface roughness and the attachment largely influence the strength of laser echo signal. Therefore, it is necessary to study the scattering properties shown by target surfaces with different roughness during laser short-range detection. Firstly, echo signal model was obtained through simulation, and then echo power experiment on surfaces with different roughness was carried out to verify the simulation results. In the experiment, target plates with different surface roughness were used, and methods such as changing the angle, changing the distance, etc., were adopted to observe the voltage curve, thereby obtaining the final result..

Rayleigh scattering lidar with 532 nm wavelength made the measurements of atmospheric density and temperature. The results obtained by Rayleigh scattering lidar were compared with the data provided by NRLMSISE-00 Atmosphere Model to prove the Rayleigh scattering lidar system performance and the reliability of the data processing method. Through comparison and analysis of the result data, it can be found that the density ratio of Rayleigh scattering lidar to NRLMSISE-00 Atmosphere Model is from 0.99 to 1.03, and the temperature biases between Rayleigh scattering lidar and NRLMSISE-00 Atmosphere Model are about 2.8 K from 25 km to 40 km. Especially under the altitude 38 km, the temperature biases is about 1.6 K. These results indicate that atmospheric density and temperature profiles obtained by Rayleigh lidar show the coincident distribution with the data of NRLMSISE-00 Atmosphere Model over the altitudes of 25 km to 40 km, and the Rayleigh scattering lidar can represent the distribution of the atmospheric density and temperature between the altitude 25 km and 40 km over Hefei..

The tuning principle of CO2 laser was analyzed, and it was found that changing the intra-cavity loss of lines is an effective way to realize the laser wavelength tuning. Then the relationship between diffraction efficiency of blazed grating and the laser wavelength were researched. The theoretical calculations show that the grating has highest diffraction efficiency when the auto-collimating angle of laser line equals to blaze angle of grating. Two blazed gratings with blaze angle of 31.97° (blaze wavelength 10.59 μm) and 28.71°(blaze wavelength 9.60 μm) were employed and the tuning performances of acousto-optic Q-switched CO2 laser were researched on experiments. Laser emission lines of 65 and 75 were obtained separately. The emission lines were richer when blaze wavelength of grating equals to the laser wavelength with lower gain, which accorded with the theoretical calculations. When the repetition frequency is 1 kHz, the maximum average power of 4.2 W, pulse width of 160 ns, peak power of 26.25 kW are achieved at the wavelength of 10.59 μm, showing good stability..

Space debris will occupy the limited and precious orbit capacities, so more and more debris generated in the space will also be a huge threat. The real-time high precision orbit determination of debris based on laser ranging technology can effectively avoid the collision between the debris and the spacecraft. In order to make high precision laser ranging to small size space debris, the 53 cm diameter binocular was developed here, which was capable of fast and steady tracking space targets of 400 km above the ground. Combined with low-power high-repetition-rate sub-nanosecond laser generator and single photon detecting technology, the space debris laser ranging technique was implemented on this binocular telescope. According to the laser ranging formulas, the detecting capability of this space debris laser ranging system was researched and analyzed. When the space debris was 1 000 km away from the ground station, the minimum size of the echo photon which can be detected is about 478.5 cm. This space debris laser ranging system has been putting into observation, and the practical observation results indicate this system has the capability to detect meter level debris in ca. 1 000 km distance..

In this paper, a method of multi-exposure control based on maximum local In the process of obtaining high dynamic range(HDR) image using the fusion of multiple shot images, the selection of exposure time in traditional method is blind, which makes the image information redundant and thus affects the fusion efficiency. In this paper, a method of multi-exposure control based on maximum local information entropy was proposed. The relationship between information entropy and exposure time of low dynamic scene was discussed. It was concluded that the image information entropy of a low dynamic range scene increased first and then decreased with the increase of exposure time. And information entropy achieved the maximum at a certain exposure time. For a high dynamic range scene, firstly, the range of exposure time was determined by using the approximate linear relationship between the gray level of the image and the exposure time. Secondly, the high dynamic range scene was divided into several low dynamic range(LDR) regions by using the histogram of the image. At last, the optimal exposure time of each region was searched. The method combined the local information entropy with the exposure time, which maked different exposure to different regions and avoided the shortcomings of the traditional exposure control effectively. Experimental results show that the image obtained with the proposed method has a good effect..

In order to improve the SCR and detect the dim targets effectively, a new method for infrared dim target detection based on the gray contrast between the central region and its neighborhood was proposed. The contrast of the target was improved by calculating the contrast map and saliency map of the input image while suppressing the background clutter. The adaptive threshold was set on this basis to separate the dim targets. Experimental results show that the proposed method can achieve higher detection rate and lower false alarm rate compared with conventional LCM(Local Contrast Measure) method.
