A method for automatic detection and characterization of plasma bubbles using GPS and BDS data

Detecting and characterizing Total Electron Content (TEC) depletion is important for studying the ionospheric threat due to the Equatorial Plasma Bubble (EPB) when applying the Ground-Based Augmentation System (GBAS) at low latitudes. This paper develops a robust method to automatically identify TEC depletion and derive its parameters. The rolling barrel algorithm is used to automatically identify the TEC depletion candidate and its parameters. Then, the depletion candidates are screened by several improved techniques to distinguish actual depletions from other phenomena such as Traveling Ionospheric Disturbance (TID) or abnormal data. Next, based on the depletion signals from three triangular receivers, the method derives EPB parameters such as velocity, width and gradient. The time lag and front velocity are calculated based on cross-correlation using TEC depletions and the geometrical distribution of three triangular receivers. The width and gradient of slope are then determined by using TEC depletion from a single receiver. By comparison, both the station-pair method and proposed method depend on the assumption that the EPB morphology is frozen during the short time when the plasma bubble moves between the receivers. However, our method relaxes the restriction that the baseline length should be shorter than the width of slope required by the station-pair. This relaxation is favorable for studying small-scale slope of depletions using stations of a longer baseline. In addition, the accuracy of the width and gradient is free of impact from hardware biases and small-scale disturbance, as it is based only on the relative TEC variation. The method is demonstrated by processing Global Positioning System (GPS) and BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS) data on 15 August, 2018, in a solar minimum cycle.

FMCW体制毫米波SAR实时信号处理方法研究

与脉冲体制合成孔径雷达(SAR)相比,调频连续波(FMCW)体制SAR具有体积小、重量轻、分辨率高、功耗低和低截获等一系列优点,目前小型或微小型SAR普遍采用FMCW工作体制。FMCW SAR在整个脉冲重复周期内都发射信号,其信号占空比达到了100%,为了减小数字接收机采样带宽,降低数据率,FMCW体制毫米波SAR一般采取解线频调接收的方式,但其数据量依然很大,而且机载平台受到气流的影响,运动误差很大,需要迭代估计与补偿,给实时处理模块带来了很大压力。为了提高整个机载FMCW SAR系统的信号实时处理性能,需要在算法层面进行改进。提出了一种两次子孔径误差估计和全孔径误差拼接补偿的FMCW SAR实时成像算法,使用相位梯度自聚焦(PGA)算法和图像偏置(MD)算法级联提取子孔径误差;然后进行子孔径误差拼接成全孔径误差补偿原数据,两维脉冲压缩后完成图像聚焦,提高了FMCW体制毫米波SAR成像算法的效率;最后使用机载Ka波段FMCW SAR实测数据,验证了该算法的有效性。

Children's Use of Slope to Guide Navigation: Sex Differences Relate to Spontaneous Slope Perception

Recent findings show that human adults can use slope to guide spatial search, although men significantly outperform women. To examine the sex difference more closely, we tested school-age children in a similar paradigm. Over four trials, children (n = 110) were disoriented and asked to locate a hidden target when the floor of a square enclosure was flat (control condition), sloped (slope condition), or sloped with a “ball drop demonstration,” intended to make the slope more salient (ball drop condition). In the presence of the slope cue, children performed above chance, although boys significantly outperformed girls. Boys were also more likely to notice the slope, and spontaneous slope perception was key to using the slope cue.
