Abstract By combining multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology and multiple matched filters with frequency diverse array (FDA), FDA-MIMO radar can be used to achieve two-dimensional target localization with range and angle. In this paper, we propose two FDA-MIMO multi-pulse target localization methods based on tensor decomposition. Based on the canonical polyadic decomposition theory, the signal models of CPD-DP-FDA with double-pulse and CPD-SP-FDA with stepped frequency pulses are established. By analyzing the signal processing procedures of the two schemes, the indicator beampattern used for target localization is obtained. The parameter estimation accuracy of the proposed method is investigated in single target and multiple targets scenarios, and the proposed method is compared with the traditional double-pulse method. The results show that the target localization method based on tensor decomposition can effectively solve the problem of multi-target indication ambiguity. The target positioning effect can be further improved by combining stepped frequency pulses. The derivation of Cramer–Rao Lower Bound (CRLB) demonstrates the superiority of the method.

The need to maintain the technical condition of buildings with a significant service life determines the regularity of their inspection. The paper presents the analysis of the results of the inspection of the building of the repair and operational block of the compressor station. The analysis of the design documentation and the results of the measurement work showed that the construction is a one-story basementless building with dimensions of 54.62x18.74x5.9 m. The performed visual examination showed the presence of damages and defects of the third and fourth categories, which requires certain actions to eliminate them. Visual examination showed the need for instrumental examination. In particular, the need to determine the strength of brickwork and the strength of concrete in structures. The analysis of the results of the instrumental examination showed: the results of testing the wall masonry by the shock pulse method using the ONIKS 2.5 device showed that the compressive strength grade of silicate and ceramic bricks of the walls of the repair and maintenance block corresponds to M100, and the grade of masonry mortar is M50; The results of concrete testing by the non-destructive method of strength control in accordance with GOST 22690-88 with the DigiShmidt 2000 device showed that the class of concrete in terms of compressive strength in reinforced concrete slabs of the covering of the repair and operational block corresponds to B20, and the class of concrete in reinforced concrete beams of the covering corresponds to B25. The verification calculation showed that the strength of the reinforced concrete pavement of the repair and maintenance unit under the full design load acting at the time of the survey was ensured. The analysis showed that the technical condition of the maintenance and operation unit is of limited serviceability. The work provides recommendations for eliminating defects and damages.

This paper substantiates the pulse method for determining the time parameter for fire detectors with a thermoresistive sensing element ‒ the time constant. The method is based on using the Joule-Lenz effect, which manifests itself when an electric current pulse passes through the thermoresistive sensing element of fire detectors. Thermal processes in such a sensing element are described by a mathematical model that belongs to the class of equations of mathematical physics. The solution to the differential equation of this class was derived using the Hankel integral transformation and is represented as a series relative to the Bessel functions. The resulting solution is used to construct a mathematical model of a thermoresistive sensing element in the form of a transfer function, which takes the form of the transfer function of the inertial link. To trigger the thermoresistive sensing element of fire detectors, a single pulse of electric current in the shape of a rectangular triangle is used. The integral Laplace transformation was applied to mathematically describe the response of a thermoresistive sensing element to the thermal effect of such a test influence. To obtain information about the time parameter of fire detectors with a thermoresistive sensing element, the ratio of its output signals is used, which are measured in the a priori defined moments. A two-parametric expression was built to determine the time parameter of fire detectors; a verbal interpretation of the pulse method to determine it was provided. The implementation of this method ensures the invariance of the time parameter of fire detectors with a thermoresistive sensing element relative to the amplitude of a single pulse of an electric current, as well as relative to the parameter that is included in its transfer coefficient.

Limited sources exist for the application of germicidal ultraviolet (GUV) radiation. Ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UV-LEDs) have significantly improved in efficiency and are becoming another viable source for GUV. We have developed a mean differential continuous pulse method (M-DCP method) for optical measurements of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes (LDs). The new M-DCP method provides an improvement on measurement uncertainty by one order of magnitude compared to the unpublished differential continuous pulse method (DCP method). The DCP method was already a significant improvement of the continuous pulse method (CP method) commonly used in the LED industry. The new M-DCP method also makes it possible to measure UV-LEDs with high accuracy. Here, we present the DCP method, discuss the potential systematic error sources in it, and present the M-DCP method along with its reduced systematic errors. This paper also presents the results of validation measurement of LEDs using the M-DCP method and common test instruments.

Abstract To monitor the filth state of insulators in time, a method based on ultraviolet pulse method is proposed to monitor the filth status of insulators, which can detect the early corona discharge of insulators by detecting UV signals and determine the degree of insulator filth. On this basis, the response characteristics of spot area to electrical pulse signal are studied and theoretical analysis is carried out, the relationship between spot area and electrical pulse signal amplitude is studied, and the correlation curve is obtained. By observing the change law of image size with the observation distance in ultraviolet image. the experiment found that the image size of UV channel and the image size of visible light channel increased or decreased in approximate proportion with the observation distance and proposed a new method to estimate the “discharge imaging area ” of discharge on the surface of the insulator by using the image information of the visible light channel. According to the discharge “relative spot area mean”, one minute time “number of large spot area image frames” two ultraviolet imaging parameters used to characterize the filth discharge characteristics, combined with the ambient humidity to establish a fuzzy logic reasoning model of the filth state, to achieve the assessment of the filth state of the insulator. By using the proposed UV image processing method, the accuracy of insulator filth detection is improved.

The microstructure-sensitive acoustic parameters (MSA parameters) of metal of the object under control are determined using measurements of the propagation time of bulk elastic waves of the ultrasonic range by the echo-pulse method. The structural features of the metal are thus evaluated not only in the surface layer, but also throughout the entire volume. We present the results of practical application of the MSA-parameters to estimation of the deviation of the velocity ratios of longitudinal and shear waves relative to the «basic» state with known strength characteristics. A correlation of the MSA-parameters with variations in the elastic moduli of metals attributed to modification of their microstructure is discussed. The generalized values of the ratios of wave velocities for steels of the same group are used in calculations to characterize the «base» state. It is shown that when calculating the MSA-parameters for a certain kind of construction steel, it is possible to use the averaged ratios of the velocities measured for quasi-isotropic reference samples made of the same type of steel. The generalized baseline ratios of the longitudinal and shear wave velocities are determined for the samples made of carbon steel, low-alloy, and alloyed steels. We present experimental evidence of using MSA-parameters to detect microstructural changes in metal samples and accompanying changes in their strength characteristics that occur during changes in modes and conditions of welding and heat treatment. A comparative analysis of the MSA parameters with the values of the mechanical properties and parameters of the crack resistance of the metal is carried out. It was shown that the accuracy of measuring the MCA parameters provided by modern hardware significantly exceeds changes in them occurred under significant deviations of the strength characteristics. The experimental results obtained clearly indicate that the MSA-parameters can be successfully used to improve the methods of quantitative non-destructive assessment of the features of metal microstructures
