CNN-Based Auto Fully-Digital Compensation Method for User Equipment with IQ Imbalance

In surface shape measurement with phase-shifting interferometry, the extraction accuracy of initial phase is significant and it will influence the correct of measurement result. A least-squares algorithm is proposed to solve the parameters of interferograms with random and known phase shifts. It can rapidly extract the initial phase, modulation amplitude and background intensity without any iteration. Numerical simulations and optical experiments are implemented to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method. The simulation and experiment results show that the presented method is effective, rapid and accurate.

This paper proposes a new method that reconstructs the information of specimen by using random phase shift step in digital holographic microscopy (DHM). The principles of the method are described and discussed in detail. In practical experiment, because the phase shifter is neither perfectly linear nor calibrated, digital holograms with inaccurate phase shift step are recorded by the charge-coupled device (CCD). The phase could be accurately reconstructed from the recorded digital holograms by using the random phase-shifting algorithm, which makes up for reconstructed phase error caused by ordinary phase-shifting algorithm. The phase aberration compensation is also discussed. In order to verify the flexibility of the proposed method, numerical simulation of random phase-shifting DHM was carried out. The simulation results illustrated that the presented method is effective when the phase shift step is unknown or random in DHM.

The standard stochastic two-step phase shift phase demodulation method analyzes the tangent function of the phase to be measured to extract the phase to be evaluated. It is necessary to eliminate the background light intensity of interference fringes, which has a significant impact on phase reconstruction accuracy. A random three-step phase shift algorithm (RTP) is suggested in this study. The phase shift between two adjacent interference fringes is extracted using the least squares approach in conjunction with a K-order twodimensional polynomial. Additionally, it employs the interference fringe graph’s difference operation to reduce the background light intensity and actualize the restoration of the measurement phase. The experimental and simulations results reveal that phase shift, luminous non-uniformity, and random noise have little effect on the random three-step phase shift method and have strong environmental adaptability.

This paper analyzes the effect of random phase shifts in the underlying clock signals on the operation of several basic quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) building blocks. Such phase shifts can result from manufacturing variations or from uneven path lengths in the clocking network. While previous literature has proposed various clock distribution architectures and also provided analysis of manufacturing variations on QCA layouts, so far no literature is available on the characterization of effects resulting from the lack of phase synchronization in the QCA clocks. We perform numerical simulations of these basic building blocks using two different simulation engines available in the QCADesigner tool. We assume that the phase shifts are characterized by a Gaussian distribution with a mean value of ipi/2, where i is the clock number. Our results indicate that the sensitivity of building blocks to phase shifts depends primarily on the layout of the building block, and that most building blocks were able to operate properly under random phase shifts characterized by sigma= 5% pi/2.

We consider a thin superconducting film with randomly magnetized dots on top of it. The dots produce a disordered pinning potential for vortices in the film. We show that for dots with permanent and random magnetization normal or parallel to the film surface, our system is an experimental realization of the two-dimensional XY model with random phase shifts. The low-temperature superconducting phase, that exists without magnetic dots, survives in the presence of magnetic dots for sufficiently small disorder.

The stability of the ordered phase of the three-dimensional XY-model with random phase shifts is studied by considering the roughening of a single stretched vortex line due to the disorder. It is shown that the vortex line may be described by a directed polymer Hamiltonian with an effective random potential that is long range correlated. A Flory argument estimates the roughness exponent to $\zeta=3/4$ and the energy fluctuation exponent to $\omega=1/2$, thus fulfilling the scaling relation $\omega=2\zeta-1$. The Schwartz-Edwards method as well as a numerical integration of the corresponding Burger's equation confirm this result. Since $\zeta<1$ the ordered phase of the original XY-model is stable.

A method combining the principal component analysis (PCA) and the least squares method (LSM) is proposed to extract the phase from interferograms with random phase shifts. The method estimates the initial phase by PCA, and then determines the correct global phase sign and reduces the residual phase error by LSM. Some factors that may influence the performance of the proposed method are analyzed and discussed, such as the number of frames used, the number of fringes in interferogram and the amplitude of random phase shifts. Numerical simulations and optical experiments are implemented to verify the effectiveness of this method. The proposed method is suitable for randomly phase-shifted interferograms.

In order to improve the psychological teaching quality of college students, this paper combines image denoising algorithm and data mining algorithm to construct a psychological teaching quality evaluation system. The denoising algorithm is mainly used to identify the behavior and expressions of the students so as to explore the psychological state of the students. Moreover, this paper combines the data mining algorithm to carry out the quantitative analysis of students’ psychological state and analyzes and introduces the calibration principle of Dirckx method in detail to improve it and then forms a new calibration method. In addition, based on the arctangent function, this paper proposes a new two-frame random phase-shift fringe image phase shift extraction algorithm. The research results show that the image denoising algorithm and data mining proposed in this paper have a good effect in the evaluation method of psychological teaching quality and can play a good role in the improvement of students’ mental health.

Diffraction selectivity of holograms with random phase encoding

With the development of the next generation of mobile networks, new research challenges have emerged, and new technologies have been proposed to address them. On the other hand, reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) technology is being investigated for partially controlling wireless channels. RIS is a promising technology for improving signal quality by controlling the scattering of electromagnetic waves in a nearly passive manner. Heterogeneous networks (HetNets) are another promising technology that is designed to meet the capacity requirements of the network. RIS technology can be used to improve system performance in the context of HetNets. This study investigates the applications of reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) in heterogeneous downlink networks (HetNets). Due to the network densification, the small cell base station (SBS) interferes with the macrocell users (MUEs). In this paper, we utilise RIS to mitigate cross-tier interference in a HetNet via directional beamforming by adjusting the phase shift of the RIS. We consider RIS-assisted heterogeneous networks consisting of multiple SBS nodes and MUEs that utilise both direct paths and reflected paths. Therefore, the aim of this study is to maximise the sum rate of all MUEs by jointly optimising the transmit beamforming of the macrocell base station (MBS) and the phase shift of the RIS. An efficient RIS reflecting coefficient-based optimisation (RCO) is proposed based on a successive convex approximation approach. Simulation results are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in terms of its sum rate in comparison with the scheme HetNet without RIS and the scheme HetNet with RIS but with random phase shifts.

This paper optimizes the energy consumption of the downlink of a multiple-antenna base station (BS) transmitting to several single-antenna users. The BS utilizes simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) while receivers apply power-splitting (PS) with a nonlinear energy harvesting model leading to PS-SWIPT. We use an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) and propose a joint design to optimize the active data and the BS's energy beamformers, IRS's passive beamformers, and the receivers' PS ratios under perfect and imperfect CSI availability. In particular, the total BS transmit power is minimized while guaranteeing a minimum rate and harvested energy for each receiver. We apply the block coordinate descent (BCD) method to optimize active and passive beamformers iteratively. We enforce the rank-one constraint and solve the corresponding optimization problem via successive convex approximation (SCA) for accurate semidefinite relaxations. Furthermore, we propose a worst-case robust design for the imperfect CSI case and reformulate this problem with infinitely many constraints. With the BCD method, the problem is iteratively solved via semidefinite programming (SDP) and a second sub-problem with a linear objective and quadratic matrix inequalities, which is also solved via SCA. Numerical results show significant improvements (e.g., 30% decrease in transmit power) than those of no-IRS and IRS with random phase shifts.

Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) has recently received much attention from the research community due to its potential to achieve high spectral and power efficiency cost-effectively. In addition to traditional cellular networks, the use of IRS in vehicular networks is also considered. Prior works on IRS-aided vehicle-to-everything communications focus on deploying reflection surfaces on the facades of buildings along the road for sidelink performance enhancement. This paper goes beyond the state of the art by presenting a novel paradigm coined Intelligent Reflecting Vehicle Surface (IRVS). It embeds a massive number of reflection elements on vehicles' surfaces to aid moving vehicular networks in military and emergency communications. We propose an alternative optimization method to optimize jointly active beamforming at the base station and passive reflection across multiple randomly-distributed vehicle surfaces. Performance evaluation in terms of sum spectral efficiency under continuous, discrete, and random phase shifts is conducted. Numerical results reveal that IRVS can substantially improve the capacity of a moving vehicular network.

The aerodynamic efficiency of turbomachinery blades is profoundly affected by the occurrence of laminar-turbulent transition in the boundary layer since skin friction and losses rise for the turbulent state. Depending on the free-stream turbulence level, we can identify different paths toward a turbulent state. The present study uses direct numerical simulation as the primary tool to investigate the flow behavior of the low-pressure turbine blade. In the simulations, the flow past only one blade is computed, with periodic boundary conditions in the cross-flow directions to account for the cascade. Isotropic homogeneous free-stream turbulence is prescribed at the inlet. The free-stream turbulence is prescribed as a superposition of Fourier modes with a random phase shift. Two levels of the free-stream turbulence intensity were simulated (Tu=0.19% and 5.2%), with the integral length scale being 0.167c, at the leading edge. We observed that in the case of low free-stream turbulence on the suction side, the Kelvin–Helmholz instability dominated the transition process and full-span vortices were shed from the separation bubble. Transition on the suction side proceeded more rapidly in the high-turbulence case, where streaks broke down into turbulent spots and caused bypass transition. On the pressure side, we have identified the appearance of longitudinal vortical structures, where increasing the turbulence level gives rise to more longitudinal structures. We note that these vortical structures are not produced by Görtler instability.
