Abstract The cross spectral density (CSD) for a multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) random vibration is typically defined by the complex coherence consisting of the modulus and the phase. The purpose of this paper is to present a constraint for the complex coherence to allow the CSD to be defined more easily. The study of the complex coherence constraint is based on Cholesky decomposition of the spectral density matrix (SDM). The complex coherence must be bounded in the interior or on the boundary of a constraint circle to ensure a physically realizable random vibration. This paper proposes a new approach to define the complex coherences of the SDM by using recursive formulas based on the constraint circle.

It is shown that the usual method for estimating the coherence functions (ordinary, partial, and multiple) for a general multiple-input! multiple-output problem can be expressed as a modified form of Cholesky decomposition of the cross-spectral density matrix of the input and output records. The results can be equivalently obtained using singular value decomposition (SVD) of the cross-spectral density matrix. Using SVD suggests a new form of fractional coherence. The formulation as a SVD problem also suggests a way to order the inputs when a natural physical order of the inputs is absent.

Specification of the cross spectra for a multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) vibration test is challenging. This paper presents a method for tests where the specifications of the output (the control points) autospectra are available. The autospectra of the outputs are specified and cross spectra between the outputs are derived that will minimize the trace of the autospectra of the inputs (the drive signals) with the constraint that the input spectral density matrix is positive definite. The hypothesis is that nature likes a minimum energy solution.

Abstract This paper presents a new approach to discover the effect of depth water for underwater visible light communications (UVLC). The quality of the optical link was investigated with varying water depth under coastal water types. The performance of the UVLC with multiple input–multiple output (MIMO) techniques was examined in terms of bit error rate (BER) and data rate. The theoretical result explains that there is a good performance for UVLC system under coastal water.

A linear structure is excited at multiple points with a stationary normal random process. The response of the structure is measured at multiple outputs. If the autospectral densities of the inputs are specified, the phase relationships between the inputs are derived that will minimize or maximize the trace of the autospectral density matrix of the outputs. If the autospectral densities of the outputs are specified, the phase relationships between the outputs that will minimize or maximize the trace of the input autospectral density matrix are derived. It is shown that other phase relationships and ordinary coherence less than one will result in a trace intermediate between these extremes. Least favorable response and some classes of critical response are special cases of the development. It is shown that the derivation for stationary random waveforms can also be applied to nonstationary random, transients, and deterministic waveforms.

Abstract This paper presents an automated procedure for the maximization of the mechanical advantage (M) of planar mechanisms. First, the classical definition of mechanical advantage is extended to include multiple-input, multiple-output mechanisms, thus allowing the maximization of the mechanical advantage of multiple-input mechanisms, a task which was hitherto not possible. A knowledge-based approach is utilized to perform a sensitivity analysis from which the mechanism parameters are automatically altered. In this manner the human designer is removed from the optimization loop. Several examples are presented which illustrate the versatility and generality of this approach.

A beampattern synthesis approach is proposed to design the power spectral density matrix (PSDM), which is chosen to achieve a given transmit beampattern in wideband multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar systems. The proposed approach focuses on transmit beampattern synthesis with constant beamwidth and sidelobe control. Moreover, the design problem is further converted to a convex optimization problem, which is solved efficiently via the modeling system CVX. In comparison to these recently developed wideband MIMO beampattern synthesis methods, the proposed approach maintains a constant beamwidth across the entire frequency band and provides a great improvement in sidelobe control. Numerical simulation results are obtained to validate the effectiveness of this approach.
