An Internal Model Control (IMC) method is proposed for electronic-hydraulic servo system in this paper.As an advanced control algorithm,the design idea of IMC is that the object model is connected to the actual object in parallel,and the controller approaches the dynamic inverse of the model.Considering the advantages of IMC such as being insensitive to the model error,the electronic-hydraulic servo system model is simplified by reducing orders.The controller based on the simplified model has only one adjustable parameter which is directly related to system dynamic performance and robustness.Therefore,the parameter is regulated conveniently,and the randomicity and complexity of the controller regulation are avoided.Simulation and experiment results show that the IMC method overcomes parameter perturbation and improves the tracking performance and robustness of system.Furthermore,the artillery tracking error is within ±0.36 mrad.

    To reduce the linearization errors of the Conventional Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) algorithm and the Converted Measurement Kalman Filter (CMKF) algorithm,the Second-order Converted Measurement Kalman Filter (SCMKF) algorithm is proposed in 3-dimensional space.The mean and the covariance of the converted measurements errors in Cartesian coordinates are inferred by the means of second-order Taylor series expansion.A more accurate and faster Kalman filter algorithm with debiased converted measurements is presented.Simulation results indicate that the SCMKF algorithm has higher tracking accuracy and faster convergence rate than the CMKF,the EKF,and the unscented Kalman filter,and the computation process of the SCMKF is more efficient than that of Debiased Converted Measurement Kalman Filter (DCMKF).

    A method of target detection in infrared image sequences is proposed based on the least absolute deviation background predication.Firstly,prediction model of the background signal based on the least absolute deviation criterion was built.Based on characters of the least absolute deviation estimation,the extreme value was extracted by the linear programming.Then,the estimated image was subtracted from the source image to get the residual image.Finally,the fast threshold selection algorithm based on the two-dimensional exponent entropy was used to segment the residual image.The experimental results were given and analyzed.They were compared with those of the method based on least squares estimation.The results show that this approach can precisely detect the small infrared target and the method is better than the method based on least squares estimation.

    In order to achieve robust and efficient tracking of a battleplane with strong flexibility,a novel tracking method based on a new similarity measure of gradient features and adaptive sizing of target is proposed in this paper.The similarity measure of gradient features is based on Mean Absolute Difference (MAD) by the introduction of matching power template,which is obtained by the transformation of target template.Using the characteristic of local superiority of target gradient feature,the probability distributing of gradient transformation is used to estimate target size.And then adjusting the size of target template is performed efficiently according to the estimate result while tracking.The results of experiment over real-world sequences show that the proposed tracker is robust to the rapid changes in viewpoint,pose and scale by the battleplane while moving flexibly.

    To track the moving target in the cluttering backgrounds is one of the most important research fields in computer vision.A new tracking method based on the significance weighted least square image matching was proposed.According to the variance between the target and the background,the new method set the different weights to every parts of the target and tracks the target by the Significance Weighted Least Square Image Matching Method (SWLSIM).We compared our new method with the three classical tracking methods.Experimental results show that the new method can track moving targets in the cluttering background effectively and accurately.However,the tracking results of the other three methods are unacceptable.And the new method is satisfied for real-time tracking processing.

    In order to analyze working principle and stability error of double longitudinal-mode He-Ne laser with stabilization frequency,a requirement is put forward,which is that an intracavity laser with cavity of 100~300 mm length can produce double longitudinal-mode light.According to laser working process,stabilization frequency includes mode hopping,transition stage and stabilized mode.With laser principle and thermodynamic theory,mechanism of stabilization frequency of the laser is interpreted on the basis of output voltages of the two photodiodes.Beat frequency test shows that frequency stability of He-Ne laser is 5×10-10.Based on error analysis,the frequency stability of He-Ne laser is only influenced by change of resonant cavity length.Furthermore,increasing length of the resonant cavity can lead to higher frequency stability.The laser with double longitudinal-mode stabilized frequency has a shorter locked time.

    In order to correct the barrel distortion of wide-angle lens,a new method based on spline function was proposed.Firstly,according to the physical principle of barrel distortion,the wide-angle lens was relatively calibrated by template based on concentric circles.Secondly,depending on the slickness of spline function and the continuity along radius’ direction of barrel distortion,the cubic spline function was used to approximate the rules of barrel distortion.Lastly,the distortion’s rules fitted by cubic spline function were used to restore the distortion image captured by the same visual system.In experiment,the new method could restore the image with barrel distortion rapidly and get well performance.So,for vision system with fixed focal length,the new method can correct the barrel distortion rapidly and efficiently,which needn’t take into account the parameters of vision system.
