Development and performance evaluation of tropospheric scintillation model on Ku-band satellite link over Akure,Nigeria

Existing amplitude scintillation prediction models often perform less satisfactorily when deployed outside the regions where they were formulated. This necessitates the need to evaluate the performance of scintillation models developed in one region using data data from other regions while documenting their relative errors. Due to its variation with elevation angle, frequency, other link parameters and meteorological factors, we employed three years (January 2016 to December 2018) of concurrently measured satellite radio beacons and tropospheric weather parameters to develop a location-based amplitude scintillation prediction model over the Earth-space path of Akure (7.17^oN, 5.18^oE), South-western Nigeria. The satellite beacon measurement used Tektronix Y400 NetTek Analyzer at 1 s integration time while meteorological parameters, namely; temperature, pressure and relative humidity were measured using Davis Vantage Vue weather station at 1 min integration time. Comparative study of the model’s performance with nine (9) existing scintillation prediction models indicates that the best and worst performing models, in terms of root mean square error (RMSE), are the Statistical Temperature and Refractivity (STN) and direct physical and statistical prediction (DPSP) models with values 11.48 and 51.03 respectively. Also, worst month analysis indicates that April, with respective enhancement and fade values of 0.88 and 0.90 dB for 0.01% exceedance, is the overall worst calendar month for amplitude scintillation.     

基于随机维纳过程的航空发动机性能衰退研究

针对发动机下发间隔预测的问题，研究了发动机性能衰退规律。基于发动机排气温度裕度（EGTM）数据，建立了随机维纳模型，并使用严酷度因子修正模型，表征不同的工作条件对发动机的影响。利用期望最大化（EM）算法结合贝叶斯定理，对模型参数求解，最终得到了基于性能衰退的发动机平均下发间隔。研究结果表明，在严酷度因子为1.2696的使用条件下，某型号航空发动机性能衰退平均下发间隔为8219循环；基于该模型预测的发动机平均下发间隔与厂商建议的下发时间之间的误差仅为1.7%。     

最小二乘直线函数的特性分析

证明了最小二乘直线函数是一种严格的凸函数。F(a,b)=∑(y-ax_i-b)~2是一个椭圆抛物面。a=[n∑x_iy_i-∑x_i∑y_i]/[n∑x_i^2-(∑x_i)~2]和b=[∑x_i^2∑y_i-∑x_i∑x_i∑y_i]/[n∑x_i^2-(∑x_i)~2]仅表示极值点。a=∑x_iy_i/∑x_i和 b=[∑x_i^2∑y_i-∑x_i∑x_iy_i]/[n∑x_i^2]在某些情况下可以是极值点,但不是在每种情况下都是极值点。     

A Novel Onboard-gateway-based Mechanism to Improve TCP Performance in Aeronautical Satellite Networks

The IP-based networks on aircraft serve to support Internet services via satellites. However, in aeronautical satellite hybrid net- works,the TCP protocol performance often deteriorates due to improper decreases and slow recovery of the congestion window. This paper proposes a window size determination and notification mechanism, onboard-gateway-based mechanism (OGBM), which is based on the onboard gateway in the networks on aircraft. A cross-layer approach is adopted by the onboard gateway to obtain the satellite link bandwidth information. And then, by the gateway, through changing the receiver’s advertised window field in ACK packets, TCP sources are notified of the window size of each TCP source calculated on the ground of bandwidth delay product and flow numbers. The mechanism is able to avoid improper changes of TCP window and serve multiple users. Simulation results show that the mechanism with the fairness index close to 1 improves TCP performance in aeronautical satellite networks.

利用L am b波频散方程及其数值求解得到的频散曲线,对L am b波模式及激励信号中心频率范围进行预测。建立了试验测试系统,利用集成在复合材料层合板上的PZT压电陶瓷片作为驱动器和传感器,激励并接收结构中激发的L am b波信号。对具有不同函数形式、中心频率和波峰数的信号激励,结构中传播的L am b波模式进行试验研究,为激励信号的选择与优化提供依据。利用H ilbert-Huang变换及H ilbert谱提取传感器信号特征,提出了L am b波信号在结构中传播时的能量衰减率和损伤敏感度两个考察指标,并据此对激励信号进行优化。实验结果表明,优化后的激励信号在结构中能激发出单一模式的L am b波(S0模式),有效地抑制了多模式现象的出现。同时,激发出的L am b波具有最低的能量衰减和最高的损伤灵敏度,响应信号特征明显,便于损伤识别。
