The method and process of identifying the superposition states of two vortex This paper presents a method for high-dimensional information modulation and demodulation using a vortex beam for underwater wireless optical communication by identifying the superposition state of orbital angular momentum in the vortex beam. The method and process of identifying the superposition states of two vortex beams are described. The topological charge numbers in the superposition states are obtained based on the light intensity distribution diagram of the superposition states after water channel transmission. Based on the results, it is experimentally demonstrated that the superposition state of orbital angular momentum can achieve the modulation and demodulation of 16-dimensional information under low-topological-charge conditions. Thus, this study provides a feasible scheme for applying vortex beams in underwater wireless optical communication..

Junjie Yang, Miaofen Huang, Xufeng Xing, and Zhonglin Wang
The diffuse attenuation coefficient of downwelling irradiance (kd) is one of the most critical optical parameters in oceanic optics. The optical parameters of waters around the Dalian port polluted by dispersed oil (oil in water) were measured, and the underwater light field was simulated using the radiative transfer mThe diffuse attenuation coefficient of downwelling irradiance (kd) is one of the most critical optical parameters in oceanic optics. The optical parameters of waters around the Dalian port polluted by dispersed oil (oil in water) were measured, and the underwater light field was simulated using the radiative transfer model (Hydrolight) to analyze the influence of oil in water on kd and to establish a semi-analytical model for kd. The simulation results show that the kd spectra of various water depths increase with increasing oil concentrations. Moreover, kd increases with increasing depth, particularly for the waters containing high concentrations of dispersed oil, and the faster it approaches its steady asymptotic value. In addition, this study also shows that the contributions of the absorption coefficient (a) and backscattering coefficient (bb) to kd of water polluted by dispersed oil differ from those of a and bb to kd of natural water body, so that the parameter values of the kd semi-analytical models of water polluted by dispersed oil and natural water body are significantly different. Therefore, the existing kd semi-analytical model for natural water body is unsuitable for accurate calculations of kd of water polluted by dispersed oil. Hence, a semi-analytical model of kd was developed based on the simulation results of Hydrolight. The accurate downwelling irradiance can be further calculated using kd obtained with this developed semi-analytical model to provide a rapid and reliable solution for the underwater light field simulation of waters polluted by dispersed oil..

Chaoyue Li, Qing Cao, Changjie Cheng, and Jirui Zhu
Hollow Gaussian beam is a hollow beam class that does not carry orbital angular momentum, its dark spot size is small and has a simple function formula. Hollow Gaussian beam has potential application in the fields of atomic guiding, particle manipulation, and optical communication. Meanwhile, zone plates, also known asHollow Gaussian beam is a hollow beam class that does not carry orbital angular momentum, its dark spot size is small and has a simple function formula. Hollow Gaussian beam has potential application in the fields of atomic guiding, particle manipulation, and optical communication. Meanwhile, zone plates, also known as Fresnel zone plates, focus light waves through diffraction onto a receiving object. Therefore, this relationship can be applied to design zone plates which generate hollow Gaussian beams. This study demonstrates that the zone plate focal plane complex amplitude distribution function is proportional to the Fourier-Bessel transform of the equivalent pupil function which describes the effects of transmission on waves. The zone plate equivalent pupil functions were calculated to produce the 1st, 3rd, and 6th order hollow Gaussian beams. Subsequently, the structural parameters of these three zone plates were designed. The wavelength and focal length of the zone plates were also changed to determine their influence on the structure parameters and dark spot size. Next, the focal plane light fields of these three modified zone plates were simulated using the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld diffraction integral. The simulation results are consistent with expectations which verifies the reliability and accuracy of the equivalent pupil function method to design Fresnel zone plates..

Transmission Performance Analysis of Terahertz Signal Based on Hybrid Shaping Circular Quadrature Amplitude Modulation
Xiao Wang, Feng Zhao, Bingyao Tian, Zhao Meng, Xiongwei Yang, and Linxian Zhao
A circular quadrature amplitude modulation based on probability-geometric hybrid shaping (PS-GS-Cir-MQAM) vector terahertz (THz) signal transmission scheme is proposed to improve the transmission performance of a radio-over-fiber (ROF) transmission system. The transmission performance of the 130 GHz band PS-GS-Cir-MQAMA circular quadrature amplitude modulation based on probability-geometric hybrid shaping (PS-GS-Cir-MQAM) vector terahertz (THz) signal transmission scheme is proposed to improve the transmission performance of a radio-over-fiber (ROF) transmission system. The transmission performance of the 130 GHz band PS-GS-Cir-MQAM signal in an RoF system with an intensity modulator (IM) and in-phase/quadrature (I/Q) modulator cascaded is analyzed via co-simulation in Matlab and VPI, and the signal transmission performance is compared and analyzed. The improvement effect of different shaping methods on the error code performance is evaluated. The results show that the error performance of the proposed PS-GS-Cir-MQAM THz signal is better than those of the other three shaping formats. Among them, the PS-GS-Cir-32QAM THz signal shows the most significant improvement in error performance. Compared with the other three shaping formats, the signal power gain increases by 0.88, 1.4, and 2.48 dB,respectively. The proposed hybrid shaping-based vector THz signal is advantageous in terms of transmission; specifically, it overcomes the nonlinear effects of optical devices and optical fibers..

The method for randomly genThe relationship between wavelength demand and network physical connectivity is studied to solve the wavelength resource shortage problems in dynamic optical satellite network, and a method based on a time-space conflict map is proposed to analyze the characteristics of wavelength resources. The method for randomly generating network topology connections is utilized to discretize the dynamic topology of an optical satellite network into a space conflict map and a time conflict map, which express the physical connectivity and effective service window of the optical satellite network, respectively. Based on the time-space conflict map theory, the path selection probability of space conflict avoidance and the effective window service probability of time storage are established and multiplied to obtain the conflict probability in time-space and calculate the number of wavelengths required in the network. The results show that wavelength requirements are closely related to the network physical connectivity, maximum number of link hops, and number of transponders. More wavelength resources should be allocated to an optical satellite network with a larger business overlap factor..

First, this studyIn the servomechanism control of laser communication optical transceivers, the equivalent compound control technology based on speed and acceleration lag compensation greatly improves the tracking as well as aiming accuracy of the optical transceiver while having little impact on the system stability. First, this study establishes the two-way tracking and aiming model for the satellite laser communication terminal, and thereafter analyzes the source of working disturbance on the optical terminal leading to solve the equivalent sinusoidal signal of motion and disturbance. Based on the double-loop closed-loop control of speed and position, the study of equivalent compound control technology is carried out. Through the variance-based sensitivity analysis of control parameters, the optimal design of speed and acceleration lag compensation parameters is completed. Finally, a motion simulation experiment is performed indoors for simulation analysis and experimental verification. The results show that after adopting the equivalent compound control, the tracking accuracy is 56.8 μrad in the state of double-end motion and the accuracy error is reduced by 80.06%. This suggests that the equivalent compound control technology can greatly improve the dynamic tracking accuracy of rough tracking of the optical transceiver..

Lower resolutions can support more available addresses. In this study, the primary factors influencing visible light imaging, such as the object distance and exposure time of the image sensor, were investigated to expand the system capacity. Next, a quantitative analysis of the minimum frequency resolution was conducted based on the above factors. Finally, the minimum frequency resolutions required to accurately achieve light-emitting diode identity (LED-ID) at different object distances were determined using the mainstream LED-ID recognition algorithm based on the visible light-positioning system, characterized by the imaging region size and the number of bright stripes. The experimental results reveal that when the object distances are 50, 100, and 200 cm, the minimum frequency resolutions are 60, 100, and 200 Hz, respectively. With an increase in the object distance, the image detection ability decreases, and the minimum frequency resolution increases. When the LED-ID recognition rate reaches at least 95%, an appropriate frequency interval can be selected to efficiently allocate available addresses. When the object distance is 250 cm, the system capacity increases by 120%. This study provides a valuable reference for selecting frequency intervals in practical application scenarios..

Few-mode erbium-doped fiber amplifier is essential to compensate for the transmission loss in long distance mode division multiplexing transmission systems. Therefore, obtaining equalization gain in all modes supported by few-mode erbium-doped fiber is vitally important, and the high differential modal gain will reduce the transmission performance of the system. In this study, 18 μm/124 μm few-mode erbium-doped fiber was fabricated by modified chemical vapor deposition technique, and a two-mode erbium-doped fiber amplifier based on the fiber was demonstrated experimentally. The gain is above 19.4 dB for LP01 and LP11a modes and its differential modal gain is lower than 0.66 dB between 1535 nm and 1560 nm when the LP11b mode is pumped..

Two Bragg resonance notches are observed in the transmission spectrum, corresponding to HE11-like and HE12-like supermodes of the SCF. Because the SCF is spliced between two standard single-mode fibers with central alignments at both ends, the transmission spectrum of the device also comprises an interferometric profile owing to the Mach-Zehnder interference of the supermodes. The responses of the device to temperature and strain are experimentally characterized. The obtained temperature and strain sensitivities of the supermode Bragg grating notches are 9.56 pm/℃, 9.55 pm/℃ and 0.64 pm/με, 0.584 pm/με, respectively. The obtained temperature and strain sensitivities of interferometric dips are 11.8 pm/℃ and -0.925 pm/με, respectively. This device can be potentially used to measure the temperature and strain simultaneously..

Under ideal conditions, the plane wave-single-mode fiber coupling efficiency and Gaussian light-single-mode fiber coupling efficiency models with no alignment errors or other influencing factors were first analyzed and compared. The effects of the coupling efficiency of a single-mode fiber with two alignment errors, lateral and longitudinal fiber offsets were studied. A method was proposed to improve the coupling efficiency of single-mode fibers based on MPLC technology. The change in the coupling efficiency before and after converting the plane wave into Gaussian light and correcting the alignment error using multi-plane light conversion (MPLC) was simulated numerically. The simulation results showed that the plane wave was converted to a beam that is similar to Gaussian light by MPLC, and the coupling efficiency was 18.54% higher than the plane wave coupled directly to a single-mode fiber. The coupling efficiency was improved to more than 99% after correcting the transverse and longitudinal offsets by MPLC. This method breaks through the limitation of mismatch between spatial light and single-mode optical mode and can effectively correct the alignment deviation error. The method also has theoretical significance for improving the coupling efficiency of spatial light to single-mode optical fibers..

Guojin Qin, and Nan Chi

To adapt to higher-speed communication and more diverse channels, different modulation formats have been proposed and applied in different environments. With the information field continuously evolving, B5G and 6G have been introduced, and the development of digital communication has entered a stage of faster updates. To adapt to higher-speed communication and more diverse channels, different modulation formats have been proposed and applied in different environments. The purpose of changing modulation format in different time and channels is to maximize the channel utilization. However, the modulation format changed at the transmitter is unknown to the receiver, which does not facilitate the connection between different communication subsystems, thus affecting the construction of a large-scale air-space-ground-sea integrated communication network. Therefore, modulation format recognition may be key to solving this problem. Because artificial intelligence (AI) has great advantages in signal processing and classification based on feature extraction, modulation format recognition based on feature extraction combined with AI classification algorithm has great research and practical value. This study introduces several methods based on feature extraction and AI and analyzes, discusses, and summarizes their application in the communication field..

Xingwei Ye, Guanghao Shao, Jiquan Zhai, and Guoqiang Zhang
Owing to the capacity of processing linearly frequency-modulated signals with GHz-bandwidths in the optical domain, microwave photonic receivers with de-chirp processing are key to realizing radars with high resolution. In this paper, general theoretical models for microwave photonic receivers with de-chirp processing Owing to the capacity of processing linearly frequency-modulated signals with GHz-bandwidths in the optical domain, microwave photonic receivers with de-chirp processing are key to realizing radars with high resolution. In this paper, general theoretical models for microwave photonic receivers with de-chirp processing are proposed, based on which the gains for eletrical signal in the de-chirp processing are derived. Moreover, the noise and dynamic range of the receiver are analyzed using the proposed models. The results reveal that the gain for noise in the microwave photonics-based de-chirping receiver with one output channel is twice that for the signal. Additionally, the impact of key parameters on the performances of a typical receiver is investigated via numerical simulations. We employs an electrical pre-amplifier with a gain of 20 dB in a photonics-based de-chirping receiver. This helps us obtain an improvement of 10.8 dB on the sensitivity with a dynamic range degradation of less than 2 dB when the half wave voltage of the electro-optical modulator decreases from 6 V to 1.5 V. However, if the half wave voltage is less than 3 V, an electrical pre-amplifier with a gain lower than 30 dB is recommended to avoid major deterioration of the dynamic range..

ImproThe cloud camera adopts the threshold method to detect cloud distribution information in the observation target area. In the cloud judgment algorithm, the accuracy of the radiance will affect the final inversion result. An information model between the response value of the pixel and the radiance was established. Improvement measures are proposed for the situation where the output response values of each pixel of the cloud camera are unequal when the incident light is uniform. First, according to the information model, the reasons for the different response values of the detector were analyzed, and the relative radiometric calibration model was established. It is difficult for the light emitted by the large-diameter integrating sphere radiation source to cover all the fields of view simultaneously due to the large field of the cloud detection camera. Therefore, a subfield of view measurement method was designed. The relative radiometric calibration of the cloud camera was performed using the calibration model and the subfield of view measurement method. The experimental results indicate that the nonuniformity of the imaging results of the integrating sphere is approximately 6% before correction. After the relative radiometric calibration correction, the nonuniformity is less than 1.5% under a typical signal-noise-ratio (SNR) and approximately 3.25% under a low SNR. The results of the calibration meet the requirements of the design of the cloud camera..

The error requires point-to-point correction to improve the final measurement accuracy. In Liquid crystal displays (LCDs) are used for projection in phase measuring deflection (PMD) surface shape detection. The multilayer transparent structure of the LCD refracts the light path, generating positional deviation errors. The error requires point-to-point correction to improve the final measurement accuracy. In this study, an equivalent transparent layer was modeled based on the LCD multilayer transparent structure, and a corresponding PMD model was established for analysis and compensation for the transparent layer. The standard spherical mirror and flat mirror were detected using a compensation algorithm to PMD. The root-mean-square (RMS) error of the surface shape decreases by 20%-40% compared with that before compensation. The error caused by the refraction effect of the LCD transparent layer in a single-screen PMD can be compensated using the proposed method. The RMS error is decreased, and the detection result is closer to the actual surface error after compensation than before compensation..

Verification expeThe spectral reconstruction theory of the reconstructive spectrometer is applied to the Fourier transform spectrometer. The method takes advantage of the high spectral resolution of the reconstructive spectrometer and the inherent high incident optical throughput of the Fourier transform spectrometer. Verification experiments were performed in the wavelength range of 520-530 nm with a simple structured experimental setup of a spatial heterodyne Fourier transform spectrometer. We used the collected pattern images of input beams with different single wavelengths for spectral calibration experiments. The spectrometer can realize unique one-to-one mapping between the patterns and wavelengths required by the spectral reconstruction theory. Spectral reconstruction using the spectral calibration patterns realizes a spectral resolution of 0.10 nm, a considerable improvement from ~5.65 nm obtained using the Fourier transform spectrometer principle. Finally, an additional pattern image of the beam with a 525 nm wavelength was used in the spectral reconstruction experiment. The reconstructed spectrum contains reconstruction errors, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the spectral signal peak is ~0.30 nm. The correlation analysis of the pattern images shows that spectral reconstruction is affected by noise during pattern image collection and the high similarity of the pattern images of the incident beams of adjacent wavelengths. Nevertheless, the reconstructed spectrum reveals the spectral information of the incident light. Moreover, the smaller FWHM spectral signal peak than that obtained by the Fourier transform spectrometer verifies the feasibility and the advantage of high spectral resolution of applying the spectral reconstruction theory to the Fourier transform spectrometer..

The experimental results show that the DAS can detect the fault vibration characteristics of the belt conveyor idler and has application prospect in the fault monitoring of industrial belt conveyor idler..

By tuning the relative wavelengths of FBG reflectance spectrum, MRR notch, and optical carrier, the filter response of MPF can be switched between bandpass, flat-top bandpass, and high-pass. The bandpass, flat-top bandpass, and high-pass responses have bandwidth tuning ranges of 5.56-7.68 GHz, 6.23-11.92 GHz, and 5.83-10.86 GHz, respectively. Insertion loss of MRR under three responses is less than 10 dB. The switchable responses enable the proposed MPF to maintain higher flexibility, with a broad application such as frequency measurement and spurious suppression scenarios..

The scanning strategy is one of the key parameters that affects the forming performance. In this study, two of the most popular scanning pathways were selected as the research objects to show their effect on thermodynamic laws. First, a thermodynamic coupling simulation model conforming to the characteristics of the SLM process was established, and a secondary development was performed based on finite element software to realize the simulation development of different paths. Then, a set of process parameters was used as a simulation example. The results show that the weld pool geometry and thermal stress of the striped scanning path are bigger than those of the chessboard pattern. Finally, several experimental datasets, including molten pool morphology and residual stress tests, confirmed that the simulation results were accurate. This study shows how the scanning trajectory affected the thermodynamics of SLM forming and provided an effective process simulation technique for engineering practice, which is convenient for SLM forming quality prediction analysis..

The geometric morphology, microstructure, phase, friction and wear properties, and microhardness of the cladding layer under the better process parameters obtained by signal-to-noise ratio analysis were analyzed by using a digital microscope, optical microscope, X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive spectroscopy, micro-hardness tester, and friction and wear tester. The results show that positive relationship between melt width, melt height, melt depth, and laser specific energy of the melt channel, the metallurgical combination between the 15-5PH cladding layer and 20Cr13 stainless steel is good without defects like cracks and pores. The structure of the coating is composed of equiaxed and columnar crystals, and hard phases such as granular NbC, NiCx, and ε-Cu are precipitated in the coating. The microhardness and friction and wear performance results show that the microhardness of the coating is about 2.4 times of that of the substrate. At the same time, the wear resistance of the coating is significantly improved compared with that of the substrate, and its wear forms are adhesive wear and abrasive wear..

The effects of energy density and powder feeding rate modifications on the density, microstructural evolution, and mechanical properties of the deposited samples were investigated using metallographic, scanning electron microscopes, microhardness, and tensile properties at room temperature. Results showed that under a constant powder feeding rate, the deposited samples' densification behavior and density gradually increased with an increase in energy density. This trend became more significant with an increase in the powder feeding rate. Hence, when the powder feeding rate was set to 5.5 g/min, the density of 50-150 J/mm2 samples specifically increased from 97.88% to 99.47%. Nevertheless, the sample with the best comprehensive mechanical properties was deposited under optimized technological conditions, namely an energy density of 100 J/mm2 and a powder feeding rate of 2.5 g/min. Its density, yield strength, tensile strength, elongation, and microhardness were 99.51%, 268 MPa, 450 MPa, 18.4%, and 120.18 HV0.2, respectively..

The simulation analyzed the changes of electron lattice temperature when changing the laser energy density on the ablated material, the changes of maximum temperature of electron, lattice and material surface under multi-pulse loading, and the changes of loading energy when changing the scanning speed and scanning interval, and concluded that with the increase of energy density, the maximum temperature of electron increased from 37000 K to 44000 K, and the final equilibrium temperature increased from 17000 K to 22000 K. Under multi-pulse loading, with the increase of energy density, the maximum temperature of electrons also increases to a certain extent, and the equilibrium temperature of the highest temperature of the material surface also increases, from 2600 K to 3250 K. With the increase of scanning speed and scanning interval, the accumulated energy of multi-pulse has a certain decrease, and the energy distribution scale is increasing. The experiments analyzed the effects of different energy densities, scanning speeds, and scanning intervals on the femtosecond laser ablated surface gear material, and the roughness analysis of the ablated morphology was carried out, and it was concluded that the quality of the ablated morphology was better when the energy density was 4.34 J/cm2, the scanning speed was 300 mm/s, and the scanning interval was 18 μm. These provide a research basis for improving the surface morphology quality of the surface gear materials processed by femtosecond laser scanning..

Through CST simulations and experiments, the influence of combining and distributing the absorbing agents (horizontal and stereo gradient distributions) on the absorption performance of the pyramid was investigated, and the absorbing mechanism was revealed. The results show that, for the homogeneous absorber, the absorption performance of the two-component absorber is better and improves with increasing graphene content. For the gradient distribution absorber (the pyramid height is 16 mm and the bottom dimension is 10 mm × 10 mm), when the stereo gradient distribution is adopted (the three-layer wave absorber graphene is added in amounts of 3%, 5%, and 7% in mass fraction), the strongest wave absorption effect can be achieved. Reflection losses of 6.1-18 GHz are lower than -10 dB, and the effective wave absorption bandwidth can exceed 11.9 GHz. The maximum absorption intensity is -45.8 dB at 17.2 GHz. Compared with the combination of absorbing agents, the distribution mode has a more significant impact on the absorbing ability of the pyramid. The wave absorber with stereo gradient distribution, on the one hand, improves impedance matching characteristics to ensure effective absorption bandwidth; on the other hand, increases multiple scattering, reflection, and spherical diffraction losses to improve absorption intensity..

Using an off-axis dual-reflection system with a free-form surface, a virtual image display optical path with a virtual image distance of 10 m and a field of view angle of 10°×5° is designed. Furthermore, the Eyebox (aperture diaphragm offset range) is divided into the moving range of a driver's field of view. The system has nine structures, and multiple structures can be used for the optimization simulation. The light spot from each field of view falls within the Airy disk. The modulation transfer function of the image is close to the diffraction limit, and both the distortion and dynamic aberration values are less than the industry standard values. Once the imaging requirements are satisfied, the dust-proof film of the head-up display (HUD) system is drawn, and the light damage simulation is performed; based on the results, sunlight can be prevented from entering the eyes. Finally, the AR-HUD shell is drawn, and the measured volume is 10 L. The display effect is simulated through a user interface (UI) image to verify the correctness and feasibility of the design..

For a dispersive photonic crystal whose permittivity is dependent on the frequency, the band structure problem is formulated as a nonlinear eigenvalue problem. In this study, first, a discrete variational formulation is derived from Maxwell's equations based on the FEM. Thereafter, by selecting approximate solutions as the initial values for the iteration, this nonlinear problem is solved for different values of the wave vector k based on Newton's iterative method. Consequently, the band structure of dispersive dielectric photonic crystals is obtained numerically. Several dispersive photonic crystals in the transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) modes are investigated. The numerical results reveal that the proposed method is effective for dispersive photonic crystals..

However, traditional measurement methods are prone to damage fruit surface morphologyIt is worth noting that determining the shape parameters of a fruit growth period, monitoring fruit development, and solving the problem of fruit characteristic size extraction for quality grading are essential in agricultural fields. However, traditional measurement methods are prone to damage fruit surface morphology, and the noncontact measurement method based on two-dimensional image feature processing has limitations in measuring various morphological parameters (e.g., size and volume). To solve this problem, this paper proposes an adaptive co-opposite-direction slicing noncontact measurement method for the orange shape parameters. First, we use an active structured light three-dimensional camera to obtain the orange point cloud. Consequently, we calculate the height and diameter of the orange point cloud using the search bounding box method. Furthermore, to improve the slice utilization rate, we introduce adaptive conditions to examine the relationship between the change rate of adjacent slices' vertical area and the threshold value to automatically update the slices. After that, the polygon area is updated again to calculate the slice volume. Finally, the complete volume of the orange is calculated using the summation method, and the final calculated value is determined by the mean of the volume obtained through co-opposite-direction calculation. Based on the verification of the orange simulation model and two groups of real orange data sets, the results of regression analysis between the calculated and real values show that the coefficient of determination of each index is greater than 0.95, and the average time is no more than 8.354 s. Compared with other methods, the measurement errors of height, diameter, and volume of the orange simulation model are reduced by 3.5%, 0.9%, 0.7%, and 3.6%..

The differential pulse pair (DPP) technique can avoid this limitation and obtain higher spatial resolution. However, the traditional DPP technique has problems, such as long measurement time, high difficulty in synchronization, and low signal-to-noise ratio. In this paper, we propose a coded DPP-BOTDA system based on the Brillouin gain-loss effect. the pump pulse light at Stokes frequency and anti-Stokes frequency is synchronously injected into the optical fiber, and the Brillouin gain loss effect of the scattered light is used to differentiate on the optical path to solve the synchronization problem between signals, and the measurement time is half of the traditional DPP method. The influence of the gain characteristics of an erbium-doped fiber amplifier in the sensing system on the decoding results of pulse sequences is analyzed, and the coding gain under the condition of uneven gain is calculated theoretically. The experimental results show that the system can obtain a spatial resolution of 50 cm with a signal-to-noise ratio improvement of 3 dB compared with the traditional single-pulse DPP-BOTDA system..

This study develops a method for simulating the wireless ultraviolet non-line-of-sight communication scattering channel and validates the model's accuracy by comparing it to a common interference model. And this model is used to simulate the co-planar interference, non-co-planar interference, and the link interference model under non-co-planar and height difference interference in wireless ultraviolet communication. The results show that the main factors affecting the bit error rate of the channel are the location of the interference terminal and the size of the effective scatterer, in the case of non-co-planar and height difference interference, the inter-link interference can be reduced by adjusting the transmitter elevation angle, and the performance of the communication system can be improved..

Guoxi Chen, Yisen Liu, Songbin Zhou, and Lulu Zhao

In this paper, we The convolutional neural network (CNN) has been widely used in various chemometric tasks in the past few years. However, learning long-range correlations from spectra using the CNN remains challenging, because most CNN architectures utilized in previous studies are quite shallow to avoid overfitting. In this paper, we present an atrous convolutional network (ACPnet) for learning long-range spectral correlation in quantitative spectrometric analysis. Paralleled convolution branches with different atrous rates are assembled to determine the best trade-off between short-range and long-range information. Three data sets, viz. tablets (Raman), soil (NIR), and wines (NMR), are evaluated to demonstrate the versatility of the proposed network. The overall results indicate that the ACPnet achieves better regression accuracies for all three data sets than those of partial least squares regression (PLS), least square support vector machine (LS-SVM), a regular CNN, and an atrous CNN in a cascaded pattern (ACCnet). Furthermore, the features extracted by the ACPnet are fed into different regressors to evaluate the proposed network as a supervised feature extractor. The results of the extraction–regression model show that ACPnet gives better feature-extraction performance than that of a conventional CNN on the three data sets..

The exploration of element composition and mineral distribution characteristics on the sLaser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) can potentially be employed for remote-sensing in situ detection, which is a crucial technique for deep-space exploration for identifying the composition and content of material elements. The exploration of element composition and mineral distribution characteristics on the surface of Mars is the premise of studying the geological evolution and genesis of Mars. Before launching the Tianwen-1 mission, Mars-simulated exploration experiments were conducted on 15 categories of mineral samples using the Mars surface composition detector (MarSCoDe), and 1920 spectral datasets were collected. This study adopted an efficient classification model to verify the detection performance of the instrument using the artificial fish swarm algorithm (AFSA)-optimized support vector machine (SVM) (AFSA-SVM), which classifies 32 minerals, including igneous and sedimentary rocks and metal minerals. First, the principal component analysis (PCA) was adopted to reduce the dimension of the original spectral data, and the data was trained in AFSA-SVM. Second, AFSA optimized the parameters of SVM and achieved 99.56% mineral recognition accuracy. Finally, AFSA-SVM was compared with other algorithms, including the random forest (RF) algorithm, backpropagation artificial neural network (BPANN), and K proximity (KNN) algorithm. Their accuracy values are 95.60%, 95.80%, and 90.17%, respectively. The results show that the AFSA-SVM algorithm has advantages in assisting LIBS in identifying mineral targets..

Qing Li, and Mingxia He

In this study, the effective permittivity is used as a bridge for establishing four equivalent models between the equivalent refractive index and porosity of materials. By practically testing the terahertz time-domain spectrum of the battery separator and microporous filter membrane, the refractive index, permittivity, porosity, and other material properties are quantitatively obtained. The results show that for a biphasic medium comprising the polyolefin material and air, the porosity and permittivity are highly correlated. The average relative error is approximately 2.53% between the porosities measured using the improved effective medium model and conventional gas displacement method; therefore, terahertz-spectroscopy-based porosity measurements are feasible for polyolefin films and should become a supplementary film-detection method..

However, it is highly toxic and produces residues that pose a severe risk to human health. Therefore, this paper proposes an approach based on metamaterial terahertz technology for detecting isocarbophos at low mass concentrations in vegetables. According to the split-ring resonator principle, a high-performance metamaterial is designed with a quality factor (Q) of 65. By testing the terahertz spectra of different mass concentrations of isocarbophos in cabbage leaves containing metamaterials, an exponential fitting model between the frequency shift of the resonance peak and the mass concentration is established. The determination coefficient R2 is 0.99765, and the lowest mass concentration detected in the experiment is 0.00087 mg/L. Compared with traditional methods, metamaterial-based terahertz technology has a lower detection limit and simplifies the pretreatment process. The proposed method determines low mass concentrations of isocarbophos in vegetables rapidly and effectively..

To further investigate the formation mechanism of terahertz spectral features, the molecular structures of imidazole and pyrazole are modeled and optimized in this study based on the density functional theory. The vibration characteristics corresponding to different characteristic absorption peaks are determined considering the potential energy distribution. Moreover,the weak intermolecular interactions are qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed via graphical analysis of interaction region indicator, energy decomposition analysis based on force field and topology analysis of electron density. The results show that imidazole and pyrazole have different molecular vibration characteristics owing to differences in the dispersion interactions and quantity and strength of the hydrogen bonds, resulting in significant differences in the frequencies of their characteristic absorption peaks in the range of 0.4-2.4 THz. Additionally, the formation mechanism of the characteristic absorption peaks is related to the differences in the vibration modes and weak intermolecular interactions. Therefore, this study provides an important reference for identifying nitrogen-containing heterocyclic pesticide raw materials and acquiring microstructural information..

This paper proposes a wavelet Compared with other denoising algorithms, wavelet denoising is preferable. The wavelet function and decomposition level greatly influence the quality of denoising; however, determining the wavelet function and decomposition level is challenging in actual X-fluorescence spectral denoising. This paper proposes a wavelet algorithm based on Russian roulette optimization for X-ray spectral denoising to address this problem. The summation of the coefficients of determination of the quantitative models (Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, and Pb for soil samples) R2 is considered as the optimization objective. The Russian roulette optimization strategy updates the wavelet function and decomposition level. Subsequently, after the number of iterations is selected, the optimal wavelet function and decomposition level of each soil sample spectrum are selected. The approach is validated on the X-ray fluorescence spectra of 55 certified reference soil samples. The R2 value of all eight heavy metals is higher after optimization, and the sum of the R2 values of the quantitative models of the eight elements increases from 7.8383 to 7.8704. This technique can be used as an alternative for wavelet denoising applied in rapid elemental measurements..

The representativeConsidering the significant influence of thermal stress on the coating quality during the in situ fabrication of new iron particle-reinforced alumina coating by laser melting, we investigated the thermal stress of a single-pass composite alumina coating on the surface of titanium alloy in this study. The representative volume element method was used to simulate and calculate the thermodynamic parameters of the new coating. The heat source model of the laser-induced thermal reaction heat was established using a combination of the raw-dead cell method and internal raw-dead heat source. The thermal stress distribution pattern of the coating components at the end of the cladding under different combinations of process parameters was calculated and analyzed. The results indicate that the thermal stresses are primarily concentrated in the coating and its bonding surface with the substrate and the tensile stresses on the coating along the melting direction are the main causes of transverse cracks in the coating. Owing to the laser-induced thermal reaction, the coating cracks increase with laser power and laser scanning speed. At 600 W laser power, the coating has the lowest number of cracks when the scanning speed is 2 mm/s. Moreover, at a scanning speed of 5 mm/s, the coating has the lowest residual stresses when the laser power is 300 W..
