Abstract:Considering the defection of general compression algorithms which neglect the characteristics of Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR) images, an adaptive compression algorithm based on the distribution of ocean-SAR images was proposed. According to the distribution, a quantization strategy was employed, through which target and background were retained respectively. Using the sparsity of the scene, pixels above the threshold were mapped to a triple before entropy encoding for both grayscales and locations. Then Bit Plane Encoder(BPE) was employed considering the relatively small deviation of the remaining background. Experimental results showed that the Peak Signal Noise Ratio(PSNR) of proposed algorithm was 5 dB-10 dB higher than JPEG2000 at the same bit rates. The proposed algorithm, with better contrast and lower computational complexity, is well suited to various requirements of ocean-SAR image compression.

Abstract:An Extended Kalman Filtering algorithm of autonomous orbit determination is presented in this paper. This algorithm can determine the satellite position and velocity vectors using cross-link range information. The STK satellite software developed by the AGI Company is used to create the GPS constellation scene,and cross-link range is derived based on quasi-distance among GPS satellites.Peak value of error is decreased by using the value of Geometric Dilution Of Precision(GDOP) to replace reference satellite. The simulation results demonstrate that the precision of orbit determination is greatly improved.

Abstract:In radar system, one of the most important direction of research is how to improve the accuracy of target tracking. In this study, a new algorithm, Sequential Block Kalman Filter(SBKF), was proposed based on the traditional radar tracking model, from the perspective of batch process. This algorithm jointed different state vectors together and modified the measurement equation to improve the track accuracy. It is proved by simulation that SBKF is superior in filtering precision and convergence to traditional Extended Kalman Filter(EKF). This new algorithm can obtain more stable results, and can also suppress the effect of nonlinear measurement equation and the wild value.

Abstract:A method for navigation signals down sampling was presented in this study by combining RF direct sampling and digital down conversion. An analysis of navigation signals at frequencies that close to 1.2 GHz and 1.5 GHz was performed. Firstly, bandpass sampling principle was used to select appropriate sampling frequency for the completion of RF direct sampling to navigation signals. Then cascaded integrator comb filter and Half-Band(HB) filter were adopted to carry out decimation filter to the sampled signals, thus realizing the purpose of reducing sampling frequency. Finally, the navigation signals of 5 frequencies were simulated in Matlab, RF direct sampling of the navigation signals was accomplished and the sampling frequency was reduced. The original navigation signal was recovered and separated. It proves the methods of RF direct sampling and digital down conversion are feasible.

Abstract:This paper presents a fast and efficient way to extract the target text areas. First, the edge detection and mathematical morphology are used to realize coarse location of text and graphic areas. Then several window features are extracted to distinguish the text areas from graphic areas and thereafter certain rules are set to extract the target text areas. The algorithm has high location accuracy and low time complexity due to weakening the interference of background areas. At the same time, OSTU algorithm is applied to enhance the adaptability of images with complex background during binarization. Test results on several types of samples indicate that the algorithm has strong popularity. The high accuracy of the method has also proved the validity of the algorithm.

Abstract:Practical signals such as radio transient signals turn out to be non-stationary and nonlinear time series, and estimating instantaneous parameters of such signals in time domain will benefit detecting and identifying specific emitters, such as radio stations and aerospace targets. However, conventional methods such as wavelet and Wigner-Ville distribution(WVD) methods are difficult to deal with these transient signals when the signal is not stationary. To provide more efficient approach for estimating instantaneous parameters of non-stationary and Specific Emitter Identification(SEI) with high accuracy, a method based on Intrinsic Time-scale Decomposition(ITD) for analytic signal is proposed in this paper. The simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of this novel method.

Abstract:Present track association algorithms in distributed multi-target passive tracking system always adopt theory in multi-sensor information fusion, in other words, only state informations of targets are concerned. A new track association algorithm is proposed based on information fusion of multi-feature such as frequency pulse-width and Pulse Repetition Interval(PRI) in distributed multi-target passive tracking system by applying Dempster-Shafer(D-S) evidence theory. The algorithm is of such advantages like faster association speed, higher correctness probability and it can be adapted to circumstance of dense targets due to the use of multi-feature information. The simulation proves that the proposed algorithm is superior to weighted track association.

Abstract:The channel noise variance information is required by the soft decision for a channel decoder. However, such information is usually unknown and/or time varying. In this paper, the effects of channel noise variance on soft decision metric are analyzed. Then, a new channel noise variance estimation method applied to the multipath fading channel is presented to generate exact soft-decision metric for a channel decoder. Applying the proposed method to the outer receiver of Digital Terrestrial Multimedia Broadcasting(DTMB) system, simulation results indicate that the proposed method converges rapidly and the generated soft decision metric is very close to the optimal one.

Abstract:Based on Affine Projection Algorithm with Selective Regressors(SR-APA),a new algorithm is proposed with a view to data reusing factor. The proposed algorithm introduces a weighting method to change the selective principles. Unweighted original data is reused in the iteration to avoid increasing the condition number of the input data, and finally the steady state Mean Square Error(MSE) is reduced. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm not only reaches lower steady state MSE than SR-APA, but also accelerates the convergence speed of SR-APA. And with the same performance,the proposed algorithm has only 50% computations of SR-APA.

Abstract:Multi-carrier transmission has been employed widely for communications and jamming system. But high Peak to Average Power Ratio(PAPR) of the transmitted signal is a major drawback of multi-carrier transmission system. This paper introduces the definition of PAPR and some main methods of PAPR reduction. In order to reduce the large computation complexity of traditional methods and keep the invariability of spectrum,a real-time PAPR reduction algorithm based on Field Programmable Gate Array(FPGA) has been proposed. This method improves the traditional phasing algorithm and has been implemented in Virtex-5 chip of XILINX. The experiment results show that the proposed method can reduce the PAPR with low complexity,and thus is of good practicability.
