An explicit expression is derived for the Cramer-Rao bound (CRB) on unbiased estimates of the parameters of autoregressive (AR) processes, given a finite number of measurements. The expression converges to the well-known asymptotic form of the CRB when the number of measurements tends to infinity. The behavior of the bound is illustrated by some numerical examples 相似文献
The design of an integrated Russian-VLF/Omega receiver implemented on a TMS320C30-microprocessor-based SPECTRUM plug-in board installed in a PC-compatible portable computer is presented. The system also requires an external antenna, pre-amp, and frequency reference. The SPECTRUM board digitizes the RF signal to 16 b and then digitally mixes with the sines and cosines of the three Russian frequencies plus 10.2, 11-1/3, and 13.6 kHz. The mixer outputs are low-pass filtered, and the comb filters are implemented for the respective epochs. The computer accesses and processes the comb filter outputs, calculating and logging signal phase and amplitude. The design allows for easy future expansion to include unique and VLF communication frequencies 相似文献
The SCIAMACHY instrument on board Envisat is able to measure nearly all vibrational transitions of mesospheric hydroxyl – from the ultraviolet to the near infrared spectral region.
In this paper, we analyze SCIAMACHY limb emission data in the 1000–1750 nm spectral region by means of a new vibrational non-LTE model of OH. Several hydroxyl hotbands are identified. Vibrational non-LTE model calculations applying different collisional relaxation models are able to reproduce the measured spectra. Best agreement between model calculations and measured spectra is obtained, if a combination of multiquantum and step ladder single-quantum relaxation model is applied. Emissions from the OH(v = 9) vibrational state are used to derive chemical heating rates from the SCIAMACHY spectra. Instantaneous heating rates are in the order of 10 K/day. 相似文献
A method of constructing three-dimensional orbits with a necessary evolution in the system the Sun — (Earth + Moon) is described.
The orbit (promising from the viewpoint of solving formulated research problems) of the Millimetron spacecraft is suggested. Feasibility of such an orbit is demonstrated, as well as a possibility to observe with its help
the majority of objects on the celestial sphere and to transmit the data to the Earth. 相似文献
We consider the principles of constructing measurement schemes with optical autonomous laser diode beacons for space and ground objects. The structure, functional scheme, and cyclogram of operation of such beacons are described. Possible scenarios of application of the beacons for providing high-precision localization of space and ground devices are analyzed. 相似文献
An analytical model of the aerothermodynamics of fluid–structure interaction through an ablative wall is developed, involving: (i) the solution to the Navier–Stokes equations in the fluid; (ii) the solution to the equations of thermoelasticity in the solid wall; (iii) the matching of the two solutions across the fluid–wall interface by continuity of normal and tangential stresses and jump of the heat flux equal to the heat of ablation. These three matching conditions determine the three constants of integration, besides the boundary conditions: (i) in the free stream far above the wall, the fluid velocity and temperature are given; (ii) in the backing material below the wall the temperature is given and displacement is assumed to be zero. In order to arrive at a simple analytical solution the simplest geometry is chosen: two-dimensional, with a flat fluid–wall interface, and all quantities in the fluid and structure depending only on distance from the wall. Extensions to unsteady and three-dimensional cases would be more complex. The present theory specifies: (i) the velocity, pressure and density in the fluid; (ii) the displacement vector, and strain and stress tensors in the structure; (iii) the temperature and heat flux in the fluid and structure, including discontinuities across the fluid–wall interface. The model is applied to examples of (a) hypersonic flight and (b) atmospheric re-entry. 相似文献
It is assumed that the gravitational interaction is carried out by material agents, and it is affected by the relativistic squeezing. With only this assumption, the solution of the problem of a photon path deviation in the Sun gravity field conforms with the experiment. 相似文献
The absolute ages of cratered surfaces in the inner solar system, including Mars, are derived by extrapolation from the impact flux curve for the Moon which has been calibrated on the basis of absolute ages of lunar samples. We reevaluate the lunar flux curve using isotope ages of lunar samples and the latest views on the lunar stratigraphy and the principles of relative and absolute age dating of geologic surface units of the Moon. The geological setting of the Apollo and Luna landing areas are described as far as they are relevant for this reevaluation. We derive the following best estimates for the ages of the multi-ring basins and their related ejecta blankets and present alternative ages for the basin events (in parentheses): 3.92 ± 0.03 Gyr (or 3.85 ± 0.05 Gyr) for Nectaris, 3.89 ± 0.02 Gyr (or 3.84 ± 0.04 Gyr) for Crisium, 3.89 ± 0.01 Gyr (or 3.87 ± 0.03 Gyr) for Serenitatis, and 3.85 ± 0.02 Gyr (or 3.77 ± 0.02 Gyr) for Imbrium. Our best estimates for the ages of the mare landing areas are: 3.80 ± 0.02 Gyr for Apollo 11 (old surface), 3.75 ± 0.01 Gyr for Apollo 17, 3.58 ± 0.01 Gyr for Apollo 11 (young surface), 3.41 ± 0.04 Gyr for Luna 16, 3.30 ± 0.02 Gyr for Apollo 15, 3.22 ± 0.02 Gyr for Luna 24, and 3.15 ± 0.04 Gyr for Apollo 12. The ages of Eratosthenian and Copernican craters remain: ~ 2.1 (?) Gyr (Autolycus), 800 ± 15 Myr (Copernicus), 109 ± 4 Myr (Tycho), 50.3 ± 0.8 (North Ray crater, Apollo 16), and 25.1 ± 1.2 (Cone crater, Apollo 14). When plotted against the crater densities of the relevant lunar surface units, these data result in a revised lunar impact flux curve which differs from the previously used flux curve in the following respects: (1) The ages of the stratigraphically most critical impact basins are notably younger, (2) the uncertainty of the calibration curve is decreased, especially in the age range from about 4.0 to 3.0 Gyr, (3) any curve for ages older than 3.95 Gyr (upper age limit of the Nectaris ejecta blanket) is abandoned because crater frequencies measured on such surface formations cannot be correlated with absolute ages obtained on lunar samples. Therefore, the impact flux curve for this pre-Nectarian time remains unknown. The new calibration curve for lunar crater retention ages less than about 3.9 Gyr provides an updated standard reference for the inner solar system bodies including Mars. 相似文献
We propose a radar-assisted collision avoidance/guidance strategy (RACAGS) for flight vehicles on low altitude missions. The task of obstacle avoidance and guidance are integrated in a single collision avoidance/guidance strategy. The avionic aids and computational requirements are modest as the strategy mainly depends on range-map and inertial system information. The strategy is first implemented in a planar scenario and then extended to three-dimensional and nominal trajectory following flight scenarios. Several simulation studies are presented for illustration 相似文献
There are several terrestrial applications for energy conversion systems with electrical outputs of a few volts in the power range from hundreds of milliwatts to a few watts. Potential applications include: power for instrumentation, communication and device actuation in severe or harsh environments, as well as a variety of low duty cycle monitoring tasks for the military. For cost and/or packaging reasons, some of these applications are severely heat source limited. In this paper we describe the development and performance of AMTEC systems capable of producing 0.3 to 0.5 watts from a radioisotope heat source limited to a total thermal output of less than 4 watts, The approach utilizes a new “chimney cell” design and a thermal insulation system consisting of a specialized multi-layer insulation (MLI) package in combination with fibrous insulation. The cell operates at 0.4 Wc to over 0.5 Wc with an input surface temperature of 700°C. Measurements of the thermal performance of a readily manufactured MLI package indicate that operation at these temperatures will be achievable with a total heat input of ~4 Wth相似文献
