The Impact

A method based on sparse array is applied to direction-of-arrival estimation of passive radar in this paper to increase the number of resolvable sources and improve the direction-of-arrival estimation performance for coprime array. The virtual symmetric non-uniform linear array of coprime array based on passive radar signal model is introduced. Considering the impact of direct wave, extensive cancellation algorithm is used to cancel the direct wave, with the conventional MUSIC with spatial smoothing algorithm and virtual aperture filling applied on the sparse array of passive radar; the resolution of target is low in the low signal-noise-ratio. To effectively improve the estimation of the target under the low signal-noise-ratio, a noise subspace reconstruction method is proposed. The proposed direction-of-arrival estimation method can improve the direction-of-arrival estimation performance of passive radar. The simulations are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In the paper shown there is presented an approach to the solution of the problem of the effectiveness parameter assessment in telecommunication systems of operational and command communication, systems of warning speakerphone and audio-exchange. There are considered the matters of the dependence investigation of the acoustic speech signal/noise ratio to the assurance of the required syllabic legibility for the possibility to increase the function effectiveness of telecommunication systems and information exchange operated under complex noise situation. There is shown the dependence of formant legibility upon the meaning of average geometric frequencies in each i-th band of a frequency spectrum of acoustic speech signals. The degree of the impact upon syllabic legibility of the acoustic speech signal/noise ratio is shown. In the paper it is shown that for obtaining speech information with syllabic legibility higher than 93% required for complete perception by a subscriber it is necessary to ensure the acoustic signal/noise ratio at the level no less than 20 dB. The problems in the probability density approximation of acoustic signals with the use of generalized polynomials on function basis systems are presented.

Abstract With the development of semiconductor technology and the increment quantity of metal layers in past few years, backside EFA (Electrical Failure Analysis) technology has become the dominant method. In this paper, abnormally high Signal Noise Ratio (SNR) signal captured by Electro-Optical Probing (EOP)/Laser Voltage Probing (LVP) from backside is shown and the cause of these phenomena are studied. Based on the real case collection, two kinds of failure mode are summarized, and simulated experiments are performed. The results indicate that when a current path from power to ground is formed, the high SNR signal can be captured at the transistor which was on this current path. It is helpful of this consequence for FA to identify the failure mode by high SNR signal.

The Impact

The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of CT acquisition parameter setting on organ dose and its influence on image quality metrics in pediatric phantom during CT examination. The study was performed on 64-slice multidetector CT scanner (MDCT) Siemens Definition AS (Siemens Sector Healthcare, Forchheim, Germany) using various CT CAP protocols (P1–P9). Tube potential for P1, P2, and P3 protocols were fixed at 100 kVp while P4, P5, and P6 were fixed at 80 kVp with used of various reference noise values. P7, P8, and P9 were the modification of P1 with changes on slice collimation, pitch factor, and tube current modulation (TCM), respectively. TLD-100 chips were inserted into the phantom slab number 7, 9, 10, 12, 13, and 14 to represent thyroid, lung, liver, stomach, gonads, and skin, respectively. The image quality metrics, signal to noise ratio (SNR) and contrast to noise ratio (CNR) values were obtained from the CT console. As a result, this study indicates a potential reduction in the absorbed dose up to 20% to 50% along with reducing tube voltage, tube current, and increasing the slice collimation. There is no significant difference (p > 0.05) observed between the protocols and image metrics.

Recently, it was reported that some saturation nonlinearities could effectively act as noise-aided signal-noise-ratio amplifiers. In the letter we consider the signal detection performance of saturation nonlinearities driven by a sinusoidal signal buried in Gaussian white noise. It is showed that the signal detection statistics still undergo a nonmonotonic evolution as noise is raised. We also particularly show that an improvement of the SNR in terms of the first harmonic does not imply the possibility to improve the signal detection performance through stochastic resonance. The study might also complement other reports about stochastic resonance in saturation nonlinearities.
