For radar systems with low update rates; such as track-while-scan (TWS) systems using rotating phased array antennas; reducing the prediction error is a very important issue. A good interacting multiple models (IMM) hybrid filter combined with circular and linear filters that are defined in relation to three measurements has been proposed in the literature. However; the algorithm requires three previous measurements; and too much prior information will result in a reduced ability to predict the future position of a highly maneuvering target. A new circular prediction algorithm for maneuvering target tracking is proposed as a non-linear prediction filter in this paper. Based on this new predictor; we also proposed a new type of IMM filter that has good estimation performance for high maneuvering targets. The proposed hybrid filter is entirely defined in relation to two measurements in a three-dimensional space to obtain a better maneuver following capability than the three measurements hybrid filter. Two target profiles are included for a comparison of the performance of our proposed scheme with that of the conventional circular; linear and IMM filters. The simulation results show that under low update rates; the proposed filter has a faster and more stable estimation response than other filters

Partitioned Sampling

High-maneuvering target tracking is a focused application area in radar positioning and military defense systems, especially in three-dimensional space. However, using a traditional motion model and techniques expanded from general two-dimensional maneuvering target tracking may be inaccurate and impractical in some mission-critical systems. This paper proposes an adaptive sample-size unscented particle filter with partitioned sampling (PS-AUPF), which is used to track a three-dimensional, high-maneuvering target, combined with the CS-jerk model. In PS-AUPF, the partitioned sampling is introduced to improve the resampling and predicting process by decomposing motion space. At the same time, the adaptive sample size strategy is used to adjust the sample size adaptively in the tracking process, according to the initial parameters and the estimated state variance of each time step. Finally, the effectiveness of this method is validated by simulations, in which the sample size of each algorithm is set to the minimum required for the optimal accuracy, thus ensuring the reliability of the tracking results. The results have shown that the proposed PS-AUPF, with higher accuracy and lower computational complexity, performs better than other existing tracking methods in three-dimensional high-maneuvering target tracking scenarios.

Abstract This paper proposes the advanced techniques used by Integrated Avionics System to track and attack the maneuvering target effectively, develops the parameter sensitivity analysis, and then point out the primary factors and the secondary factors affecting the attack effectiveness. First of all, mathematical models are provided, including the kinematic model, the airborne radar tracking model, the fire control model, the pilot-manipulation model and the fire logic. With the use of self-adaptive Kaiman filter, the algorithm for the maneuvering target tracking is suggested. By means of the forced singular perturbation, the suboptimal strategy for three-dimensional pursuit-evasion differential game problem is developed. Secondly, based on the models, the algorithm and the strategy above, the simulation flow chart is proposed, which is in accordance with the actual air-to-air attack. Thirdly, in the light of the relative sensibility function, the values of system parameter sensibility about several parameters are calculated. Fourthly, appropriate parameter selections for improving and updating the attack capability are suggested. Finally, the imaginary air-to-air scenario is simulated to analyze the performance of Integrated Avionics System. The simulation results show that the system can track the maneuvering target reliably and attack it accurately with the longer locking time, and the burden of numerical calculation is lightened considerably.

Dynamic Structures

In an effort to understand the complex relationship between structure and biological function within the nucleus, we have embarked on a program to examine the three-dimensional structure and organization of Drosophila melanogaster embryonic chromosomes. Our overall goal is to determine how DNA and proteins are organized into complex and highly dynamic structures (chromosomes) and how these chromosomes are arranged in three dimensional space within the cell nucleus. Futher, we hope to be able to correlate structual data with such fundamental biological properties as stage in the mitotic cell cycle, developmental state and transcription at specific gene loci.Towards this end, we have been developing methodologies for the three-dimensional analysis of non-crystalline biological specimens using optical and electron microscopy. We feel that the combination of these two complementary techniques allows an unprecedented look at the structural organization of cellular components ranging in size from 100A to 100 microns.

Recently dislocations have been observed by electron microscopy in the icosahedral quasicrystalline (IQ) phase of Al65Cu20Fe15. These dislocations exhibit diffraction contrast similar to that known for dislocations in conventional crystals. The contrast becomes extinct for certain diffraction vectors g. In the following the basis of electron diffraction contrast of dislocations in the IQ phase is described. Taking account of the six-dimensional nature of the Burgers vector a “strong” and a “weak” extinction condition are found.Dislocations in quasicrystals canot be described on the basis of simple shear or insertion of a lattice plane only. In order to achieve a complete characterization of these dislocations it is advantageous to make use of the one to one correspondence of the lattice geometry in our three-dimensional space (R3) and that in the six-dimensional reference space (R6) where full periodicity is recovered . Therefore the contrast extinction condition has to be written as gpbp + gobo = 0 (1). The diffraction vector g and the Burgers vector b decompose into two vectors gp, bp and go, bo in, respectively, the physical and the orthogonal three-dimensional sub-spaces of R6.

Electron Transfer Complex

TMADH (trimethylamine dehydrogenase) is a complex iron-sulphur flavoprotein that forms a soluble electron-transfer complex with ETF (electron-transferring flavoprotein). The mechanism of electron transfer between TMADH and ETF has been studied using stopped-flow kinetic and mutagenesis methods, and more recently by X-ray crystallography. Potentiometric methods have also been used to identify key residues involved in the stabilization of the flavin radical semiquinone species in ETF. These studies have demonstrated a key role for 'conformational sampling' in the electron-transfer complex, facilitated by two-site contact of ETF with TMADH. Exploration of three-dimensional space in the complex allows the FAD of ETF to find conformations compatible with enhanced electronic coupling with the 4Fe-4S centre of TMADH. This mechanism of electron transfer provides for a more robust and accessible design principle for interprotein electron transfer compared with simpler models that invoke the collision of redox partners followed by electron transfer. The structure of the TMADH-ETF complex confirms the role of key residues in electron transfer and molecular assembly, originally suggested from detailed kinetic studies in wild-type and mutant complexes, and from molecular modelling.
