      Abstract:In view of the slow detection speed of the current algorithm of the target detection system for Chinese college students’ driverless formula racing cars, the low detection accuracy and serious missing and false detection in different scenarios are easy to occur. In the recognition module, first of all, in order to improve the detection speed and recognition accuracy of the original YOLOv5 basic model, the paper uses CIoU as the boundary box regression loss function. To solve the problems of slow convergence speed and low recognition accuracy of the algorithm during training, the original weighted nonmax suppression method is changed to DIoU_NMS in this paper, the test accuracy is 0. 963, which is 2. 1% higher than the original algorithm. The results show that the improved algorithm is more suitable for cone color recognition in the competition scene. Secondly, in the tracking module, the depth apparent feature cone color recognition model is trained, and the single target tracking algorithm is changed to be able to track multiple types of targets. Compared with a single target detection algorithm, the phenomenon of missing detection is effectively reduced. Finally, the ranging module is added to use the height information of the detection frame to distance the vehicle camera to the cone barrel. The average error within 90 meters is less than 9%. The frame rate of the whole system reaches 20 frames/ second, realizing cone color recognition and effective distance measurement, and providing more data support for the game.

    • Research on fringing effect of MEMS capacitive devices

      2023, 37(2):76-82.

      Abstract (723) HTML (0) PDF 6.06 M (831) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:In the working process of MEMS capacitive devices, the capacitor plates are usually not in the very opposite position but in an inclined position, which will induce the fringing field effect and cannot be ignored. Based on conformal mapping transformation and complex function correlation theory, the fringing effect model is proposed by inheriting the traditional models and modifying them. Compared with the traditional Heerens’ and Huang’s model, the proposed model is better because the error between the proposed model and the finite element simulation, which is from 10% to 20% when the capacitor plate is moved from perfectly aligned to completely misaligned, is less than that between the traditional Heerens’ s and Huang’ s model. Furthermore, according to the proposed model, when the plate coincidence degree is lower than 40%, the fringing effect increases rapidly. As a result, the proposed model should be applied to correct the capacitance. All above are verified by a digital experiment concerned with MEMS differential capacitor array. The research is helpful for the design and performance analysis of capacitive MEMS devices.

      Abstract (473) HTML (0) PDF 4.01 M (625) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Focusing on the problem that traditional LVDT measurement circuit requires many high-cost modules and that the performance is relatively low, a LVDT measurement system based on oscillation circuit is proposed and designed. LVDT coil is connected to a highperformance LC oscillator as a resonant inductance. Displacement is obtained by using the frequency shift of the resonance signal. System linearity is improved with the help of the resonator mathematical model and theoretical analysis. The experimental results of the prototype show that under the full displacement state, the frequency range span can reach 73 ~ 122 kHz. The sampling rate and resolution can be adjusted according to the actual needs. A submicronic measuring resolution of 16. 7 bits is achieved when the sampling rate is 200 Sps and the nonlinearity error is 0. 14% FS. The measurement system outperforms the traditional bridge circuit in most aspects, and does not need low distortion excitation and high-precision demodulation module. Besides, it has significant advantages in circuit cost and size.

      Abstract:To address the problem that the time-series characteristics of vibration data are lost in the process of feature extraction in the prototype network, and the distribution of samples in the metric space is not corrected which results in low model accuracy under few-shot task, this paper proposes a new boundary-enhanced prototype network with time-series attention for gearbox fault diagnosis. First, the time-series fusion features of the channels are obtained by building a time-series attention module to establish the time-series feature dependencies between channels. Then, after calculating the class prototypes, the near-neighbor boundary loss is added to correct the intra- and inter-class distributions of the fault features in the metric space to clarify the representation boundaries of the class prototypes. Finally, the fault diagnosis results are output by calculating the Euclidean distance between the test sample and the class prototype. The experiments show that the proposed method in this paper has higher fault diagnosis accuracy compared with other methods under small sample conditions.

      Abstract (234) HTML (0) PDF 1.67 M (520) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:In using generative adversarial networks to generate oil well production parameter data, this method causes the inconsistency between partially generated data characteristics and characteristics of oil well production process, which leads to the low quality of soft sensor modeling of dynamic liquid level. This paper presents an expansion method of soft sensor modeling data of oil well dynamic liquid level based on expert diagnosis-wasserstein generative adversarial networks. After the discriminator obtains the original loss value based on the real data and generated data, the rationality of the generated data is diagnosed by the expert diagnosis module in combination with the mechanism process of oil well production, and the discriminator judgment results are detected. The error results are compensated and added to the loss functions of the generator and discriminator for subsequent confrontation training, thus the better soft sensor modeling sample data of dynamic liquid level which consistent with the characteristics of oil well production process is generated. Through simulation experiments, the prediction accuracy of the dynamic liquid level improved by adding the generated data to the training data of soft sensor modeling, and the root mean square error is reduced by 5. 99%. It shows that the data generated by the generator after adding the expert diagnosis module has higher quality and can better meet the production needs of the oilfield.

      2023, 37(2):110-120.

      Abstract (229) HTML (0) PDF 35.54 M (611) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Underwater images usually have problems such as low contrast and color imbalance, which lead to unclear image texture information. Aiming at finding a solution, an underwater optical image sharpening method based on fusion of channel quantization and red prior is proposed. First, two input image versions are designed. Image 1 adjusts the image contrast by quantifying the color channel histogram and redistributes the pixel value. In image 2, in order to achieve color equalization, the red channel prior is substituted into the underwater imaging model to estimate the background light, direct component transmittance and backscattered transmittance. Then, three weight maps are designed for each input image, including brightness map, saturation map and saliency map. Finally, the multiscale fusion strategy is used to fuse the image after local contrast enhancement and color correction with its normalized weight map. The experimental evaluation carried out on multiple databases by subjective and objective indicators shows that the proposed algorithm can recover more color and detail information while presenting high contrast, effectively improve the quality of underwater images, and has advantages over other classical and novel algorithms.

      Abstract (604) HTML (0) PDF 3.57 M (552) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:In response to the problems of information loss and slow computation in previous studies of single-channel EEG signal EOG artifact removal algorithms, a method for removing EOG artifacts based on empirical wavelet transform (EWT), wavelet transform (WT) and approximate entropy is proposed. Firstly, the empirical wavelet transform (EWT) is used to adaptively segment the EEG signal, and the appropriate wavelet filter banks are constructed in the segmentation interval to extract the tightly supported modal components. Then, the WT decomposition is performed for each modal component, and the approximate entropy of the decomposition is calculated, while the approximate entropy threshold is set for automatic identification and removal of EOG artifacts. Finally, the signal is reconstructed using the inverse transform of wavelet transform (WT) and empirical wavelet transform (EWT). The algorithm was tested using the publicly available Klados dataset and Mohit Agarwal’ s EEG-VR dataset, and the experimental results showed that the mean value of the computation time of the method was 0. 199 5 s, and the mean value and variance of the power distortion of the Alpha wave were 0. 128 4 and 0. 151 1, the mean value and variance of the power distortion of the Beta wave were 0. 097 7 and 0. 158 0. Compared with EMDICA, CEEMDAN-ICA and WT algorithms, the proposed algorithm has faster computation speed, better artifact removal ability, and can retain more useful information of EEG signals.

      2023, 37(2):130-141.

      Abstract (605) HTML (0) PDF 9.76 M (603) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Flow measurement in shallow water is of great significance for hydrological observation in intracontinental aera, which can promote the development of flood control irrigation and other water conservancy projects. The broadband acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) can accurately monitor the information of the flow velocity in the water area. The broadband ADCP used for shallow water flow measurement is not easy to achieve better velocity accuracy in the narrow flow layer and is vulnerable to local turbulence interference in the narrow flow layer. To solve the above problems, this paper proposes a retrieval method of the optimal value of the solution results based on η criterion, optimizes the local correlation evaluation method, and completes the development of the ADCP system based on system on chip (SoC). The effect of the algorithm is further verified by the radial velocity generated by the beam-velocity angle. The outdoor sailing experiment is carried out. When the radial layer thickness is 6. 3 cm with turbulence interference, the velocity precision and degree of accuracy can be improved by 37% and 77% respectively after the algorithm is applied, 66% and 72% respectively in the case of low SNR. The error between the angle calculated according to the speed measurement value and the set value is 3. 06°, which is reduced to 2. 60°after algorithm processing. The angle error obtained by the error relation of measured speed can reach 0. 6°. In the boat experiment in a calm lake, the standard deviation of the system can reach 1 mm/ s, and the error of interlayer velocity can reach 1 mm/ s, which is close to the theoretical velocity distribution.

Finally, the coupler was installed on water-lubricated bearing test-rig, and the dynamic test was conducted. The research results show that the simulation and test have favorable consistency, the coupler has well coupled and offset resistance performances when the gap length is 5 mm, meanwhile, it is not affected by rotation condition. After compensation, the average output power of coupler is 12. 496 W with a transmission efficiency of 71. 96%, which can meet the needs of wireless monitoring node.

      Abstract:In order to enhance the safety as well as comfort of multiple high-speed trains in cooperative operation, a cooperative cruise control strategy of multiple high-speed trains based on improved distributed consensus algorithm is proposed. Firstly, the safety distance interval is designed that can change with the train speed in real time.

Meanwhile, the error model of the closed-loop train dynamics is transformed into a typical second-order multi-agent system model by coordinate transformation, and the asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system under the error state is proved by using Lyapunov’ s stability theorem. Finally, the proposed method is verified by simulation, the proposed method can dynamically adjust the safety distance between trains and always keep it within [-0. 7,0. 7]m/ s 2 . The results show that the safety and comfort of multiple trains tracking operation can be guaranteed.

      2023, 37(2):179-185.

      Abstract (487) HTML (0) PDF 5.38 M (622) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Laser interference can cause interference such as saturation and glare to thermal imager, it seriously affects the image quality. Vanadium dioxide is a phase change material, which has high transmission of infrared radiation at low temperature semiconductor state. In the high temperature metallic state, vanadium dioxide has highly reflectance of infrared radiation. This characteristic can be used to protect infrared thermal imager from laser interference. Self-motivated phase transition vanadium dioxide thin films were prepared by molecular beam epitaxial method, and the transmittance of thin films to mid-infrared laser was measured by an experimental device. The transmittance of the film in semiconductor state is 0. 693 and 0. 069 in metallic state at 3. 525 μm wavelength. An experiment using the vanadium dioxide thin film to protect the thermal image from the middle infrared laser interfering was done. The experimental results show that when the vanadium dioxide film is semiconductor state, most of the incident laser energy can transmit the vanadium dioxide film, which will cause serious interference to the thermal imager. When vanadium dioxide film is in metallic state, most of the incident laser energy is attenuated, and the interference degree of laser to the thermal imager is greatly reduced. Vanadium dioxide thin film can be used to protect thermal imager from laser interference.

      Abstract (370) HTML (0) PDF 7.37 M (708) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:The internal hardware and software of coherent optical transceivers are relatively complicated, and it is hard to carry out a large-scale test with the conventional manual method. The testing efficiency and productivity of coherent optical modules are also seriously restricted. To this end, an automated test system for 400 and 800 Gb / s coherent optical modules is designed and implemented. This system utilizes the programmable manipulation components to efficiently obtain the firmware, state sequence and optical parameters of coherent transceivers. Moreover, an experimental test setup is built to verify the systemic effectiveness, in which multiple 400ZR and 400ZR+ modules from different vendors are evaluated. The test results show that compared to the manual method, the measuring time can be lowered by nearly an order of magnitude with the proposed method, which significantly improves the testing efficiency.

      Abstract:In the research of DOA estimation of coherent signals from logarithmic spiral arrays, this paper proposes a VA-MMUSIC algorithm that virtualizes the logarithmic spiral array into a uniform line array, derives the covariance matrix of the virtualized array, then applies the covariance matrix to the MMUSIC algorithm to perform DOA estimation of coherent signals. Simulation results show that the VA-MMUSIC algorithm, is able to achieve DOA estimation of coherent signals, and at a signal-to-noise ratio of 10 dB and signal intervals within 5°, the VA-MMUSIC algorithm is still able to accurately estimate the azimuth of the coherent signal source, with errors always remaining within 0. 5°, verifying the effectiveness of this method. The effectiveness of the VA-MMUSIC algorithm in a practical environment is also verified by using a logarithmic spiral array to receive coherent signal source data under real experimental conditions.

      Abstract:In order to improve the state of charge (SOC) estimation accuracy of lead-acid battery under random conditions, reduce the influence of error variation on estimation accuracy. Aiming at the limitation of fixed length selection of error innovation sequence in adaptive extended Kalman filter, an improved adaptive extended Kalman filter algorithm is proposed to estimate SOC. The likelihood estimation is used to monitor the distribution change time of the error innovation sequence in the covariance matching algorithm, and the length of the innovation sequence is adaptively adjusted according to the distribution change of the error innovation, thereby reducing the error when estimating SOC. Firstly, the equivalent model parameters are identified by the recursive least squares method with forgetting factor ( FFRLS ), the average error voltage of the model is 13. 63 mV. Then, in the random condition experiment, it is found that the improved algorithm improves the accuracy of RMSE and MAE performance by 14. 44% and 17. 26% respectively when estimating SOC. The results show that the improved algorithm has better stability and accuracy.

      Abstract:Aiming at the problems of poor robustness and are difficult to monitor the settlement value of tunnel timely and effectively. An adaptive recognition and measurement algorithm of tunnel settlement is proposed by combining coordinate attention with object detection algorithm. Using industrial camera to get object images in different environment to build datasets, then training object detection model with coordinate attention, prediction accuracy of the model is 97. 9% in the test sets. Using the target figures and LED lights of the pixel coordinates in images to do the camera calibration and calculate settlement value. The results show that the measurement error of tunnel surrounding rocks is less than 1 centimeter within 25 meters, less than 5 millimeters within 10 meters.

      Abstract:A voltage-force-strain conversion novel high voltage sensor is designed by combining the piezoelectric ceramic actuator with a cantilever beam strain transducer through a longitudinal-bending conversion mechanical structure. The piezoelectric ceramic actuator is T-connected with the elastic cantilever beam structure to form the longitudinal-bending conversion structure, which converts the longitudinal stress/ strain generated by the piezoelectric actuator under the action of voltage into the bending stress/ strain of the cantilever beam, and the longitudinal-bending conversion of stress/ strain is realized. Four resistive strain gauges are placed on the upper and lower sides of the cantilever beam to form a Wheatstone bridge circuit and the bending stress/ strain of cantilever beam is measured. The mechanical conversion design between the strong electricity side of the high voltage and the weak electricity side of the force sensitive ensures a high degree of electrical isolation. The physical model of voltage-force-strain conversion of the sensor is established and verified by finite element simulation. The prototype device is fabricated, and the test results show that the measurement range of the sensor is 0~ 5 000 V, the sensitivity is 0. 01 μV/ V, the nonlinearity error is 1. 83%, and the resolution is 30 V.
