Aiming at the problem of variable sampling rate sensor multi-target tracking in clutter,considering the ability that Secondary Surveillance Radar(SSR) can identify enemy or friend target and enhance the accuracy of tracking enemy target,a SSR modified unscented Joint Probabilistic Data Association(JPDA) tracking algorithm is proposed for multi-sensor asynchronous system. Firstly,by using asynchronous data dealing way of mapping measurements,point track of the multi-sensor measurements is composed. Secondly,SSR is used to modify the height information of the enemy target adaptively. Finally,by using the unscented JPDA algorithm,the sequential filtering fusion of asynchronous sampling measurements can be realized. The validity of this algorithm on the improvement of target tracking accuracy and correct associate probability is illustrated through Monte-Carlo simulations.

    It’s an important work to detect and locate targets in image. A new method,named Data Regrouping (DRG) algorithm,is proposed. This approach scans the image only once to record data related to targets,and transforms image process problem to data structure problem,thus complexity is reduced. The DRG method doesn’t need overlaborate labeling and has nothing with repetitiveness. Using the infrared images of ground gathered by the sensor of our airborne testing system for heavy-weapon range test,we apply DRG algorithm to extract infrared small targets and achieve the goal of detecting and locating ground control points in real time. The experiment result shows that our method is accurate,reliable,and has great ability of anti-jamming and anti-noise.

The centroid accuracy of the star spot affected by sub-pixels arithmetic and CCD noise were analyzed at different exposure time with CCD47-20 chip,and the optimum exposure time was calculated. The results show that the accuracy of arithmetic was degraded and the accuracy of star spot affected by CCD noise was decreased when the exposure time increased. The optimum exposure time is 200 ms when the motion rate is 4.67 pixels per second for a single star of 6.5 magnitude,and the star spot location accuracy is better than 1/50 pixel with 5×5 window.

The space heat flux which the spatial balloon gets is calculated in the appropriate coordinate system. The surface temperature distribution of the balloon is gotten by solving the transient heat balance equations with the use of the finite element software,ANSYS 10.0. On the basis of the solved surface temperature distribution,taking the balloon as a point object,the spatial distribution of infrared radiation intensity in two IR bands is calculated. Finally,the differences of the surface temperature distribution and the infrared radiation intensity spatial distribution between the spatial balloon gotten in this paper and a spatial ballistic target gotten in our previous work are compared and analyzed in detail.

    The analysis of heavy metals in soil usually requires a complex procedure and digestion time if carried out by using traditional analytical techniques. In this paper,a moveable Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) instrument is established which is mainly equipped with a pulsed 1 064 nm Nd:YAG laser and a portable spectrometer,and has been applied for the quantitative measurement of Ba and Mn in soil. The intensity and relative standard deviations of the signal of Ba and Mn are carefully investigated by varying the way of data acquisition. Along with the experimental parameters optimization,a new data acquisition and processing method is used to improve the measurement precision and sensitivity. The calibration curves for quantitative measurement of Ba and Ma are derived. The measurement precisions,in terms of Relative Standard Deviations (RSD),are 9.0 % and 10.24% for Ba and Mn respectively. The Limits of Detection (LOD) for Ba and Mn in soil are improved to be 19.4 mg/kg and 115.4 mg/kg respectively,and are better than the results reported in literature.

    Because of the limitation of the F-P interferometer for the analysis of a CW laser modulation spectrum,an optical beat frequency method is proposed,which can be used to measure the spectrum with a modulation frequency ~kHz. This method is based on the photoelectric conversion technique. We can get the beat frequency signal of the reference laser and a CW modulation spectrum with the spectrum analyzer,and then have the relative electric field strength of the various optical frequency of a CW laser modulation spectrum through the corresponding mathematical calculation so as to realize the CW modulation spectrum analysis. After theoretically modeling,experiments were carried out to measure a CW laser modulation spectrum generated by a diode laser and an EOM device with the proposed method. Compared with the measuring results with F-P interferometer,experimental results show the feasibility of an optical beat frequency method.

    The simulation and analysis of the laser pulse echo signal are very useful to study different kinds of echo signal processing approaches and produce 3-D laser simulated images for target. In this study,the uniform time propagation and spatial distribution models of the emitted laser pulse were built. The reflected signal from the laser pulse sent at the laser imaging simulation template arising from 3-D target model could be calculated as a convolution sum between the impulse responses and the emitted pulses for the subareas in the laser footprint. The simulation analyses show that the ranging error caused by the simulation approximations is minor,and the better simulation precision of the echo signal is achieved in coordination with high simulation efficiency by adjusting the number of the subarea in the laser footprint.

    According to spectral characteristics that benzoylurea pesticides can emit fluorescence as they are irradiated by UV rays,an optical fiber fluorescence measurement system based on Charge-coupled Device (CCD) was designed for pesticides residue. The system adopted a pulsed xenon lamp as excitation light-source,employed optical fibers to transmit and detect fluorescence,and used linear-array CCD instead of traditional photomultiplier tube as photoelectric detection device of the fluorescence signal. Moreover,it was equipped with high-speed A/D data acquisition card,implemented photoelectric conversion of the fluorescence and data acquisition under the control of a singlechip,and further achieved the concentration measurement of flufenoxuron and hexaflumuron. The result indicates that,when the excitation wavelength is 290 nm for flufenoxuron and 345 nm for hexaflumuron respectively,the fluorescence intensity of the former appears maximum as the wavelength is 360 nm and that of the latter appears maximum as the wavelength is 418 nm. The minimum detecting limits are 12 μg/L and 20 μg/L respectively. The fluorescence intensity is directly proportional to solution concentration in the range of 25~1 000 μg/L. This measurement system has several characteristics such as high sensitivity and wide linear range,which can meet the demand of fluorescence detection.

    Three circle centers are taken as chief mark of the target-plane. These circles are taken as auxiliary mark. The circle center is marked by the intersection of two lines. The diameter parallel to the image-plane is taken as characteristic diameter,by which the depth information for the target plane can be got from elliptic figures on the image-plane easily,so the solution of the inverse-perspective-transformation can be made simple and accurate. By designing a sub-pixel processing,circler-centre-image position and characteristic diameter image length can be got exactly. An algorithm was designed to calculate circle centre position. Then plane formula of the target plane can be got. The rudder’s angular displacement can be expressed by the target’s angular displacement. The computer simulating test indicates that measurement error for circle center image position within 0.02 pixels and measurement error for angular displacement within 0.005°. The measurement error caused by the target plane deviation from the direction parallel with the rudder-axis can be corrected in time. By this method,the angular displacement of aileron,flop,elevator and rudder of the airplane may be calibrated.

    To avoid the limitation of Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) to the long-distance and high-rate optical fiber communication system,a dynamic adaptive PMD compensation system based on Degree of Polarization (DOP) was designed. According to the relationship between DOP and Differential Group Delay (DGD),the optimum value was searched and tracked by the control algorithm,and the value of PMD and its compensation effect could be reflected by DOP. Through adjusting the angle of waveplates in the polarization controller and the length of the variable delay line,the two principal states of polarization were adjusted to optimize DOP,and a close-loop compensation system was established. It was demonstrated from the experimental results that the worsening signal waveform was resumed effectively,and the opening of the eye diagram was improved obviously. The response time of the compensation system was about 110ms,and the Bit Error Rate (BER) was 3.59e-16,which satisfied the requirement for BER in the transmission system.

    The digital watermark technique is proposed based on Fresnel hologram and Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). The Fresnel hologram of the original watermark is gotten by use of digital holography technique. Then the hologram is embedded in the median-frequency coefficients in the DCT domain. The position of watermark and geometric parameters of optical system are adopted to retrieve the watermark without the original host image. The algorithm has high security and practical value. Numerical experiments show that the embedded watermark is robust to usual image manipulations,such as superposing noise,cropping,filtering and lossy compression.

    In order to improve the performance of eyelash interference suppressing algorithm in iris recognition method,a new algorithm based on Morphological operators was developed. Considering the eyelash as the fine nondirectional silt in the background of eye image,the suppression of eyelash interference can be taken as a process to fill up these fine slits by using dilation operator. Compared with Gaussian filter algorithm,the proposed algorithm can suppress more eyelash interference,and has better performance. The experiment results from the CASIA iris database show that the proposed method can reduce more 40% eyelash pixels than that of the Gaussian filter algorithm. Using the proposed method,the accuracy of the Daugman’s algorithm and Wildes’ algorithm,which are traditional iris location algorithm,are improved 1.7% and 2% respectively,and the location time are decreased by 27.9% and 24.2% respectively.

    In the multi-ellipse detection especially when they are overlapped,the existing methods such as the Randomized Hough Transform,show drawbacks of poor stability and low accuracy. In this paper,a new methodology was proposed based on the connected convex curve searching and ellipse fitting. Firstly,the edge curve is clustered into different groups by the convexity—leading to each group belonging to a certain ellipse. Secondly,the ellipse fitting is performed on grouped curves. Finally,curves on the same ellipse are merged. Since our method can make full use of properties of ellipse curves,it works well in experiments of both synthetic images and real-word images with a higher accuracy and a certain anti-noise performance.

    An optimum grid pattern of the concentrator solar cell top contact metallization was designed. Several power-loss mechanisms of the smallest element were analyzed detailedly. The optimum grid spacing recursion formula was deduced. The optimum grid spacing and the power-loss for the grids of different width were calculated. The shadowing loss was the biggest loss when the grid spacing was narrower than the optimum one if ohmic contact was very well. Otherwise,the current transporting power losses of the grid and solar cell material became the main reason. For the high concentrator solar cell,the thickness of the grid was proposed to be designed more thickly. The results of calculation and analysis can be used in the designing concentrator solar cells.
