Geometrical and electrical optimization of NS-SDBD streamwise plasma heat knife for aircraft anti-icing

Ice accretion on aircraft encountering supercooled water droplets in clouds poses great risks to flight performance and safety. With the aim of optimizing the newly developed streamwise plasma heat knife method for anti-icing, a parametric investigation is carried out in this work. The influence of the detailed voltage profile on the heating effects of a Surface Dielectric Barrier Discharge driven by Nanosecond Pulses (NS-SDBD) is investigated, and a comparison of the anti-icing performance among different configurations of streamwise plasma heat knife is made. The results show that columnar high-temperature regions produced by a multi-streamer discharge appear at small pulse rise time, but become diffuse as the pulse rise time increases. An optimal pulse rise time exists to provide a wide range and high value of temperature, which is found to be 150 ns for the setup in the present study. The influence of the pulse fall time is much weaker than that of the rise time. The range and value of the temperature decrease with increasing pulse fall time. A greater pulse width is found to improve the heating effect by increasing the discharge power. When a spanwise electrode is placed connecting the streamwise electrodes of the streamwise plasma heat knife at the airfoil leading edge, the anti-icing performance becomes poorer, whereas good performance is achieved when the spanwise electrode is at the edge of the streamwise electrodes. Based on this, a three-level configuration of the plasma heat knife is proposed, and its anti-icing performance is found to be much better than that of the original configuration.     

基于多层感知机的远距离水下声源定位技术研究

针对传统匹配场处理方法存在水下声源远距离定位失准以及定位时间过长的问题，提出了一种基于多层感知机的水下声源被动定位方案。利用团队自研的“浮星”浮标实测的剖面数据模拟真实海洋环境，并在水中布设垂直水听器阵，仿真大量不同位置的声源在水听器处产生的接收数据。将多通道波形数据直接作为输入对多层感知机网络进行训练，从而获取高精度的定位神经网络。仿真结果表明，与匹配场处理算法相比，设计的感知机网络可以在大范围信噪比环境中实现有效的水下声源定位，其中在30dB信噪比下定位距离和深度的平均相对误差达到了1.94%和6.84%。另外，相对于失配声速剖面，使用平均声速剖面模拟的接收数据可提高网络的定位性能。     

星载高增益毫米波SAR相控天线阵设计

介绍了一种高增益、高效率的星载毫米波合成孔径雷达(SAR)有源相控天线阵的设计。天线单元采用了窄边开缝的波导缝隙天线，辐射缝隙与波导宽边垂直，天线具有效率高、匹配良好的特点。在方位向，波导缝隙天线组成直线阵，直线阵内采用折叠的波导功分器降低了直线阵的剖面高度。在距离向，波导缝隙直线阵紧密排布，形成一维相扫阵列。定标网络及馈电网络均采用波导形式并集成于天线阵列背面，其中，定标网络通过定向耦合器改善了定标通道的一致性及带内起伏特性，馈电网络通过魔T结构改善各有源通道间的隔离度。以距离向84个直线阵为一个子阵列，最终设计的天线全阵在方位向共包含8个子阵列，总体尺寸是595.8λ0×56λ0(λ0是中心频率在自由空间中的波长)。实测天线带内最高增益为54.37 dBi，辐射效率65.2%。天线阵列具有高增益、高效率的优点，同时结构简洁紧凑，适用于星载毫米波SAR系统。     

UML在航空电子系统中的应用研究

UML是使用最广泛的面向对象建模语言,它是信息技术的蓝图和详细描述系统结构的方法.象在非航空电子系统一样,UML在航空电子系统中也得到了普遍应用.不同的公司对UML在航空电子系统中的应用进行了不同的扩展.但是,OMG(Object Management Group)没有把任何一种扩展作为标准.本文通过应用研究对 IBM Rational的 B.Selic提出的 UML/RT进行扩展,将它应用到航空电子系统中,并且详细说明扩展的意义和结果。
