Abstract:The noise and interference are usually described by Gaussian distribution in the traditional track association model, while the massive use of electronic equipment makes the battlefield electromagnetic environment more and more complex. To address this problem, this paper proposes a multi-target trajectory association model based on uncertainty distribution, by introducing uncertainty distribution function to describe the noise and interference in the trajectory association process, so that the model is more in line with the real situation on the battlefield, constructs a multi-target trajectory association process in the case of dual sensors, and uses classical algorithms to simulate and verify different numbers of targets. The results show that the model proposed in this paper outperforms the traditional model under the same conditions and can bring improvement in the association accuracy.

Abstract:In the process of radar to sea detection, the near-range sea clutter echo power is high, which seriously affects the radar receiver work and subsequent signal processing. In order to balance the gain and sensitivity of radar receiver, a reasonable design of sensitivity time control (STC) curve is needed. This paper introduces four STC design curve methods using GARCH model, polynomial function, radar distance equation and exponential function, and compares and analyzes the near-range sea clutter suppression performance of the four STC curves by using the measured data under high and low sea conditions. The experimental results show that the STC curves in the form of radar distance equation have significant performance in suppressing sea clutter in both high and low sea states; the STC curves modeled by GARCH model are suitable for low sea states; the STC curves in the form of polynomial and exponential are close to each other in different sea states.

Abstract:With the rapid development of Internet of Vehicular, more and more vehicles′ applications are computation-intensive and delay-sensitive. Resource-constrained vehicles cannot provide the required amount of computation and storage resources for these applications. Edge computing(EC) is expected to be a promising solution to meet the demand of low latency by providing computation and storage resources to vehicles at the network edge. This computing paradigm of offloading tasks to the edge servers can not only overcome the restrictions of limited capacity on vehicles,but also avoid the high latency caused by offloading tasks to the remote cloud. In this paper, an efficient task offloading algorithm based on deep reinforcement learning is proposed to minimize the average completion time of applications. Firstly, the multi-task offloading strategy problem is formalized as an optimization problem. Secondly, a deep reinforcement learning is leveraged to obtain an optimized offloading strategies with the lowest completion time. Finally, the experimental results show that the performance of the proposed algorithm is better than other baselines.

Abstract:Power as one part of PPA(Performance, Power and Area) becomes more and more important in large SoC chips, especially under 7 nm technology. AI chips schedule multi-cores in parallel for specific application scenario, which lead to very large power consumption. Power optimization for each core is highest priority for an AI chip design. With a typical power scenario or multi-scenario grouped together, we can do power optimization from RTL synthesis to GDS. The basic flow is using Joules-replay to convert RTL activity file(time-based formats-VCD/FSDB/SHM/PHY) to gate level activity file. Synthesis with Genus has 3 steps: syn-gen, syn-map and syn-opt, Joules-replay is added after each step, and the replayed activity file will be used in power optimization in next step, which increase power estimation accuracy. Innovus place and route also has 3 main steps: place-opt, CTS-opt and route-opt, same flow with Joules-replay can be involved after each step, and it generates stimulus activity for next step. At final timing signoff stage, we use post-sim activity for power opt in Tempus. With this full flow power optimization flow, we can achieve more than 10% power reduction, combined with MBFF(Multi-Bit Flip-Flop) optimization, we can get 21% power reduction finally.

Abstract:At the advanced process nodes(7 nm,5 nm and belows), circuit aging has become a neck problem that restricts chip performance and reliability. The aging effects may cause increasing cell delay, and thus led to the risk of path timing violation. The IC design engineers need to predict the aging timing in the timing analysis and set some aging margin accordingly to ensure the reliable operation of the chip during the service life-time. In view of this, this paper introduces an advanced aging-aware STA solution based on Liberate+Tempus. Evaluation results show that this solution can release the over-designed time margin while keeping the analysis efficiency, the accuracy, as well as the multi-situation analysis capability, thus providing a powerful basis for achieving advanced chip design with higher reliability and better performance.

Abstract:In the measurement test of unsteady load on helicopter rotor surface, the performance of slip ring and the electromagnetic radiation of the field environment have great influence on the quality of external clock signal. In some serious cases, the affected external clock signal may lead to erroneous acquisition actions, which makes it impossible to accurately obtain the load data at a specific azimuth. In order to improve the quality of the external clock signal, a wireless clock jitter estimation and correction method of data acquisition system in rotating environment is proposed. The external clock signal is transmitted through the wireless transceiver modules, two sets of triangular waves with the phase difference of 90° are used to estimate the clock jitter with equal amplitude hypotenuse, and the Lagrange interpolation algorithm is used to correct the samples of sensors. Simulation and wind tunnel tests show that this method can effectively reduce the acquisition error caused by external clock jitter, and has significant effect on accurately measuring the load signal on the rotor surface in rotating environment.

Abstract:The aging and damage of the power line and the loose connection will cause a fault arc, which may accidentally cause a serious electrical fire. There are differences in arc faults caused by different types of loads, which makes it difficult to identify arc faults in residential areas. This paper presents a method of series fault arc recognition based on time-frequency diagram and deep convolutional neural network. Through the arc fault experiment, the current data of the normal load and the fault arc are collected. The single load half-cycle current data will be converted into three-dimensional feature images through continuous wavelet transform(CWT), and then these images will be input into the improved convolutional neural network(CNN) for training and testing. The experimental results show that the accuracy of identifying the normal and arc status of a single load is above 99.31%,the accuracy of identifying the working status of multiple loads can reach 99.2% on average.

Abstract:In the generalized frequency division multiplexing system(GFDM), in order to solve the problem of severe signal distortion in the sub-6 GHz frequency band channel of the vehicle-mounted mobile communication under the 5G network, an adaptive equalizer based on high order long short-term memory(HO-LSTM) neural network structure is proposed. Based on the traditional high-order feedforward neural network(HO-FNN), HO-LSTM adaptive equalizer uses the generalized memory polynomial model(GMP) with lower complexity instead of Volterra model, and introduces LSTM neural network to make it more suitable for the prediction of complex nonlinear models. The results show that, compared with the traditional HO-FNN equalizer and LSTM equalizer, the equalization effect of the proposed HO-LSTM equalizer is significantly improved, and the system performance is further improved.

Abstract:In order to ensure the efficiency of signal synthesis between multiple channels in a digital phased array, the system needs to provide highly stable time-frequency signals for multiple sub-arrays of the phased array. There is a problem of poor amplitude and phase consistency in the method that the traditional phased array uses cables to directly distribute and transmit. In this paper, a time-frequency signal distribution and transmission technology based on optical fiber wavelength division multiplexing is proposed, which can effectively solve the problem of efficient and stable distribution and transmission of time-frequency signals in digital phased arrays. The amplitude of each branch signal after distribution and transmission varies with temperature within ±0.5 dBm, and the phase varies with temperature within ±3°. The time-frequency signal distribution and transmission technology has been successfully applied to a digital phased array multi-target unified measurement and control system.

Abstract:Non-intrusive load decomposition can decompose the electricity consumption information of each consumer from the current change information of the main meter, which is convenient for providing electricity consumers with more refined and targeted electricity management and dispatching services. The current non-intrusive load decomposition algorithm using one-dimensional convolution has the problems that the decomposition accuracy is not high, the new user appliances need to be retrained, and the complexity is high. Based on this, this paper uses the effective value of current and the harmonic component information after Fourier transform to propose a load decomposition algorithm based on one-dimensional convolutional neural network, which uses similarity comparison to decompose the current information of each consumer, and solves the new problem that increasing users or using electrical appliances requires retraining. It is found through experiments that the method proposed in this paper can also improve the accuracy of load decomposition to a certain extent, and the complexity is low.

Abstract:Effectively detecting discriminative local areas and more accurately extracting fine-grained features of images will help improve the classification effect of fine-grained images. For this reason, a fine-grained image classification method combining dual attention mechanism and multi-region detection is proposed. Multi-region detection aims to locate discriminative image regions through class label learning, and then extract the features of the discriminative local regions through a feature extraction network and merge them with global features. Similarly, a more precise feature extraction network can extract fine-grained features of an image. Therefore, by combining the dual attention mechanism and multi-region detection, the proposed method respectively achieves 88.3%, 94.5% and 92.3% accuracy on three public fine-grained image datasets, CUB-200-2011, StanfordCars and FGVC Aircraft.

Abstract:Wind energy is the most widely used renewable energy. Accurate wind speed prediction is critical for the safety and stability of wind power system. Besides traditional numerical weather prediction, the machine learning technique has been used in wind speed prediction of different time scales. However, most previous studies focused on the wind speed sequence of single station and ignored the spatial dependency and correlation of wind. To improve the prediction with spatial information, this paper tries to extract the wind spatial correlation features in one region area and reconstruct the wind speed using deep belief network(DBN). The experiment results of different regions prove that the spatial deep belief network can reduce the prediction error significantly and increase the accuracy of wind speed prediction by 0.4 m/s on average.

Abstract:The analog front-end of traditional navigation receiver based on superheterodyne or low IF is complex in function, high in power consumption and not conductive to monolithic integration. Based on the idea of analog minimization and digital maximization, a novel analog front-end of navigation receiver based on software radio architecture is designed and implemented by integrating a high gain RF amplifier, a high speed low power ADC and a low jitter clock phase-locked loop. Through 55 nm CMOS process circuit design, layout design, simulation and silicon wafer verification, the test results show that the analog front-end of navigation receiver works normally and only one analog receiver channel is able to process the multimode navigation signals which greatly reduces the size and power consumption of analog circuit. The analog front-end circuit has successfully applied in a multimode navigation SoC chip.
