一种基于亮度和深度信息的实时景深渲染算法

在研究透镜成像模型与针孔成像模型的基础上,提出了一种基于亮度和深度信息的实时景深渲染算法,首次把景深渲染应用到增强现实系统。使用OpenGL和Visual Studio2008实现整个算法。通过建立三维空间坐标系,实时追踪和获取真实场景深度信息,把生成虚拟物体融入到真实场景中。随后,依据亮度信息对虚实融合场景进行模糊处理。最后进行图像融合,把模拟的景深效果输出到屏幕。实验结果表明,新算法更接近于真实摄像机拍摄的景深效果图,适用于增强现实系统。     

Mobile channel estimation for MU-MIMO systems using KL expansion based extrapolation

In multi-user multiple input multiple output(MU-MIMO) systems,the outdated channel state information at the transmitter caused by channel time variation has been shown to greatly reduce the achievable ergodic sum capacity.A simple yet effective solution to this problem is presented by designing a channel extrapolator relying on Karhunen-Loeve(KL) expansion of timevarying channels.In this scheme,channel estimation is done at the base station(BS) rather than at the user terminal(UT),which thereby dispenses the channel parameters feedback from the UT to the BS.Moreover,the inherent channel correlation and the parsimonious parameterization properties of the KL expansion are respectively exploited to reduce the channel mismatch error and the computational complexity.Simulations show that the presented scheme outperforms conventional schemes in terms of both channel estimation mean square error(MSE) and ergodic capacity.     

Adaptive robust control of mobile satellite communication system with disturbance and model uncertainties

The tracking and stable control of a typical shipmounted mobile satellite communication system(MSCS) is studied.Unlike the former studies based on simplified single-axis models,a tri-axis nonlinear model including the kinematic and dynamic features of the MSCS is used as the control object.An adaptive robust controller with trajectory planning is designed to deal with large parametric uncertainties and uncertain nonlinearities of the system.A theoretic performance result is given and proved.The designed adaptive robust controller and other two traditional controllers are tested in the comparative simulations under three different situations.The simulation results show the tracking and stable validity of the proposed controller.     

On control of strong consensus for networked agents with noisy observations

The discrete-time first-order multi-agent networks with communication noises are under consideration.Based on the noisy observations,the consensus control is given for networks with both fixed and time-varying topologies.The states of agents in the resulting closed-loop network are updated by a stochastic approximation(SA) algorithm,and the consensus analysis for networks turns to be the convergence analysis for SA.For networks with fixed topologies,the proposed consensus control leads to consensus of agents with probability one if the graph associated with the network is connected.In the case of time-varying topologies,the similar results are derived if the graph is jointly connected in a fixed time period.Compared with existing results,the networks considered here are in a more general setting under weaker assumptions and the strong consensus is established by a simpler proof.

基于矢量频率锁定环的高动态GPS信号跟踪

研究了高动态环境下矢量跟踪算法在GPS接收机中的应用,提出了一种适合高动态环境的矢量频率跟踪算法。当接收机存在高动态时,与由其引起的多普勒频率的变化率相比,由卫星运动引起的多普勒频率的变化率非常小,多普勒频率的变化主要由接收机的动态引起。对各个通道来说接收机的速度与加速度等状态信息是共同的,因此利用矢量跟踪的方法从各个通道的量测数据中直接估计接收机的速度、加速度等状态,可以有比通常的标量跟踪更低的跟踪门限,而在相同的载噪比下,可以有比通常的标量跟踪更好的估计精度。给出了一种适合高动态环境的矢量频率锁定环(VFLL)的结构,详细分析了导航滤波器的系统转移方程与量测方程,讨论了导航滤波器的实现。利用非线性估计的方法代替鉴频器提取频率误差,提高矢量跟踪的性能。由于矢量跟踪的性能是与想定相关的,在典型的高动态情景下,根据具体的想定,利用仿真的方法分析了矢量频率锁定环的跟踪性能。仿真结果表明矢量跟踪在高动态环境下可以有比标量跟踪更好的优势,能很好地跟踪GPS接收机的高动态信号。     

Variational discretization for parabolic optimal control problems with control constraints

This paper studies variational discretization for the optimal control problem governed by parabolic equations with control constraints.First of all,the authors derive a priori error estimates where |||u-U₍h|||_L∞（J;L²（Ω））=O（h²+k）.It is much better than a priori error estimates of standard finite element and backward Euler method where |||μ-U_h|||₍L∞（J;L²（Ω））=O（h+ k）.Secondly,the authors obtain a posteriori error estimates of residual type.Finally,the authors present some numerical algorithms for the optimal control problem and do some numerical experiments to illustrate their theoretical results.     

Dynamic pricing and compensation on heterogeneous sales forces

In this paper, we analyze the pricing decision and the compensation strategy of a firm that relies on a heterogeneous sales force to sell its product in two periods. The sales agents’ selling abilities are their private information and will determine the effectiveness of the agents’ selling efforts. We introduce three compensation contract strategies, i.e. pooling, semi-separating and separating that the firm can adopt in period one and by applying principle-agent theory, derive the optimal compensation contracts and optimal price for the firm in two periods in each strategy. Comparing these three contract strategies, we found that the optimal strategy for the firm depends on the discount factor. We show that the firm will surely offer separating contracts in period one for some small discount factor, and for some large discount factor pooling contract is certain to be provided in period one. However, semi-separating contracts may be considered for some mediate discount factor, and also may not appear for all discount factors in period one. Our analysis also reveals that the optimal price decreases with the discount factor when pooling contract is offered in period one and increases with the discount factor when separating contracts is offered in period one.     

Optimal purchasing process for electricity and renewable energy credits with price and demand uncertainty

This paper optimizes the electricity and renewable energy credit (REC) purchasing process for energy distribution. Electricity is traded in deregulated time-sequential markets at fluctuating prices. Optimal electricity purchasing under price and demand uncertainty is a challenging task for electricity distributors, and the recently implemented renewable portfolio standards (RPS) further complicate the purchasing process. Government regulatory decisions concerning the RPS require distributors to purchase corresponding certificates, namely RECs, equivalent to a certain percentage of their electricity sales. This paper formulates and optimizes the joint purchasing process for electricity and RECs. It also analyzes the effect of RPS policy on electricity distributors.
