In an optical interferometer that uses sinusoidal modulation and quadrature detection, the amplitude and offset of the interference signal vary with time, even without considering system noise. As a result, the circular Lissajous figure becomes elliptical, with wide lines. We propose and experimentally demonstrate a method for compensating quadrature detection error, based on digital signal processing to deal with scaling and fitting. In scaling, fluctuations in the amplitudes of in-phase and quadrature signals are compensated, and the scaled signals are fitted to a Lissajous unit circle. To do so, we scale the average fluctuation, remove the offset, and fit the ellipse to a unit circle. Our measurements of a target moving with uniform velocity show that we reduce quadrature detection error from 5 to 2 nanometers.

본 논문에서는 RF초음파 신호의 포락선 검출을 위하여 제안된 다차 샘플링 방법의 성능을 실험데이터를 이용하여 Quadrature 샘플링 및 2차 샘플링 방법과 비교하였다. Quadrature 샘플링의 결과 영상과 비교해볼 때 2차 샘플링의 결과 영상은 많은 오차를 보이고 있다. 그러나 다차 샘플링 결과, 특히 5차 샘플링 결과는 매우 우수한 포락선 검출 결과를 보여주고 있다. 이러한 다차 샘플링 방법을 사용하면 보다 경제적이고 우수한 성능의 디지털 빔포밍 시스템의 구현이 가능하다.

A new laser-based ultrasonic receiver that is based on multi-channel interferometry is shown to be well suited for robust and sensitive detection of ultrasound in industrial environment. The proposed architecture combines random-quadrature detection with detector arrays and parallel multi-speckle processing. The high sensitivity is reached, thanks to the random phase distribution of laser speckle caused by surface roughness. High-density parallel signal processing is achieved by using a simple demodulation technique based on signal rectification. This simple detection scheme is also demonstrated for rejection of the laser intensity noise, making possible the use of lower cost laser without reduction in performances. Results demonstrating this new principle of operation and its performances are presented.

자기공명영상 시스템의 신호 대 잡음 비(SNR, Signal-to-Noise Ratio)를 향상시키기 위해서 quadrature RF 코일을 사용하는 것은 최근의 일반적인 방법이다. 그렇지만 이 때 SNR의 향상을 가져오기 위해서는 완벽한 3dB 커플링과 90°위상차를 가지는 잘 설계된 quadrature coupler가 필수적이다. 또한 RF 여기 주기와 검파 주기 동안 각 포트의 임피던스 정합 조건이 잘 만족되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 분석과 시뮬레이션 및 제작을 통해 임피던스 부정합 조건(특히,환자)의 영향을 살펴보았고 이의 영향을 최소화하고 시스템의 신뢰성을 향상시키기 위한 회로 기술로 동적 로딩(dynamic loading)을 처음으로 quadrature coupler 와 송수신 스위치 모듈에 적용하는 것을 제안했다. 또한 quadrature coupler와 송수신 스위치 모듈을 마이크로 스트립을 이용해 설계하고 제작 하였다. 결과적으로 자기공명영상 시스템의 SNR은 수신 동적 부하가 없고 불연속 소자로 된 종전 모듈을 사용했을 때보다 시스템의 SNR이 3dB 높아졌다. 또한 이 모듈은 자기공명영상 시스템이의 최대 5kw의 고출력 RF 신호의 처리가 가능하다. 전력 손실과 크기를 고려할 때, 고유전율을 가진 R/Tduroid 6010 기판을 사용하였으며, 시뮬레이션은 Compact Software을 사용 했다.

This study investigates the problem of crack detection in post-buckled beam-type structures. The beam under the axial compressive force has a crack, assumed to be open and through the width. The crack, which is modeled by a massless rotational spring, divides the beam into two segments. The crack detection is considered as an optimization problem, and the weighted sum of the squared errors between the measured and computed natural frequencies is minimized by the bees algorithm. To find the natural frequencies, the governing nonlinear equations of motion for the post-buckled state are first derived. The solution of the nonlinear differential equations of the two segments consists of static and dynamic parts. The differential quadrature method along with an arc length strategy is used to solve the static part, while the same method is utilized for the solution of the linearized dynamic part and the extraction of the natural frequencies of the cracked beam. The investigation includes several numerical as well as experimental case studies on the post-buckled simply supported and clamped-clamped beams having open cracks. The results show that several parameters such as the amount of applied compressive force and boundary conditions influences the outcome of the crack detection scheme. The identification results also show that the crack position and depth can be predicted well by the presented method.

A novel approach for frequency-tripling vector signal generation via balanced detection without precoding and optical filter is proposed. The scheme is mainly utilizing an integrated dual-polarization quadrature phase shift keying (DPQPSK) modulator. In the DPQPSK modulator, one QPSK modulator is driven by an RF signal to generate high-order optical sidebands, while the other QPSK modulator is modulated by I/Q data streams to produce baseband vector signal as an optical carrier. After that, a frequency-tripling 16-quadrature-amplitude-modulation (16QAM) vector millimeter-wave (mm-wave) signal can be obtained by balanced detection. The proposed scheme can reduce the complexity of transmitter digital signal processing. The results show that, a 4 Gbaud baseband 16QAM vector signal can be generated at 30 GHz by frequency-tripling. After 10 km single-mode fiber (SMF) transmission, the constellation and eye diagrams of the generated vector signal perform well and a bit-error-rate (BER) below than 1e-3 can be achieved.

The error rate performance of circularly distributed antenna system is studied over Nakagami-m fading channels, where a dual-channel receiver is employed for the quadrature phase shift keying signals detection. To mitigate the Co-Channel Interference (CCI) caused by the adjacent cells and to save the transmit power, this work presents remote antenna unit selection transmission based on the best channel quality and the maximized path-loss, respectively. The commonly used Gaussian and Q-function approximation method in which the CCI and the noise are assumed to be Gaussian distributed fails to depict the precise system performance according to the central limit theory. To this end, this work treats the CCI as a random variable with random variance. Since the in-phase and the quadrature components of the CCI are correlated over Nakagami-m fading channels, the dependency between the in-phase and the quadrature components is also considered for the error rate analysis. For the special case of Rayleigh fading in which the dependency between the in-phase and the quadrature components can be ignored, the closed-form error rate expressions are derived. Numerical results validate the accuracy of the theoretical analysis, and a comparison among different transmission schemes is also performed.

This paper describes a fiber optic sensor suitable for non-contact detection of ultrasonic waves. This sensor is based on a fiber optic Sagnac interferometer. Quadrature phase bias between two interfering laser beams in Sagnac loop is introduced by a polarization controller. A stable quadrature phase bias can be confirmed by observing the interferometer output versus phase bias. This method eliminates a digital signal processing for detection of ultrasonic waves using Sagnac interferometer. Interference intensity is affected by the frequency of ultrasonic waves and the time delay of Sagnac loop. Collimator is attached to the end of the probing fiber to focus the light beam onto the specimen surface and to collect the reflected light back into the fiber probe. Ultrasonic waves produced by conventional ultrasonic transducers are detected. This fiber optic sensor based on Sagnac interferometer is very effective for detection of small displacement with high frequency such as ultrasonic waves used in conventional non-destructive testing.

We present in this paper the ture union bound of the performance of chip level detection for coded DS/CDMA system operating in Rician fading channels such as LEO satellite mobile radio where the maximum doppler frequency is very high. The main objective of this paper is to calculate the exact doe union bound of BER performance of different performance of different quadrature detectors and to find a optimum spreading factor as a function of fade rate. The rationale of using multiple chip detection is to reduce the effective fade rate or variation. We considered chip level differential detection, chip level maximum likelihood sequence estimation, noncoherent detection and coherent detection with perfect channel state information as a reference.
