Baseline drift is a commonly identified and severe problem in Raman spectra, especially for biological samples. The main cause of baseline drift in Raman spectroscopy is fluorescence generated within the sample. If left untreated, it will affect the following qualitative or quantitative analysis. In this paper, an adaptive and fully automated baseline estimation algorithm based on iteratively averaging morphological opening and closing operations is presented. The proposed method is able to deal with different shapes and amplitudes of baselines. It is tested on both simulated and experimental Raman spectra. Comparison of the proposed method with other morphology-based methods and a well-developed penalized least squares-based method is made. The results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method and its advantages—in terms of accuracy, adaptivity, and computing speed—over other algorithms. In general, this method can also be applied to other spectroscopic data or other types of one-dimensional data.

Baseline parameters and interferometric phase offset need to be estimated accurately, for they are key parameters in processing of InSAR (Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar). If adopting baseline estimation algorithm with single pass, it needs large quantities of ground control points to estimate interferometric parameters for mosaicking multiple passes dual-antenna airborne InSAR data that covers large areas. What’s more, there will be great difference between heights derived from different passes due to the errors of estimated parameters. So, an estimation algorithm of interferometric parameters with block adjustment for multi-pass dual-antenna InSAR is presented to reduce the needed ground control points and height’s difference between different passes. The baseline estimation experiments were done with multi-pass InSAR data obtained by Chinese dual-antenna airborne InSAR system. Although there were less ground control points, the satisfied results were obtained, as validated the proposed baseline estimation algorithm.

The simulation program by the Monte Carlo method of pulse reactions of bistatic atmospheric aerosol-gas channels of optical-electronic communication systems (OECS) is created on the basis of the modified double local estimation algorithm. It is used in a series of numerical experiments in order to evaluate statistically the transfer characteristics of these channels depending on the optical characteristics of an atmosphere plane-parallel model for wavelengths λ = 0.3, 0.5, and 0.9 μm at a meteorological visibility range SM = 10 and 50 km. The results are obtained for a set of basic distances between the light source and the light receiver up to 50 km and for the angular orientations of the optical axes of a laser radiation beam and of the receiving system in a wide range of their values. The dependences of the pulse reactions maximum values over-the-horizon channels of the OECS on the variations of these parameters are established.

ABSTRACT The idea of intelligent tires is to develop a tire into an active perception component or a force sensor with an embedded microsensor, such as an accelerometer. A tire rolling kinematics model is necessary to link the acceleration measured with the tire body elastic deformation, based on which the tire forces can be identified. Although intelligent tires have attracted wide interest in recent years, a theoretical model for the rolling kinematics of acceleration fields is still lacking. Therefore, this paper focuses on an explicit formulation for the tire rolling kinematics of acceleration, thereby providing a foundation for the force identification algorithms for an accelerometer-based intelligent tire. The Lagrange–Euler method is used to describe the acceleration field and contact deformation of rolling contact structures. Then, the three-axis acceleration vectors can be expressed by coupling rigid body motion and elastic deformation. To obtain an analytical expression of the full tire deformation, a three-dimensional tire ring model is solved with the tire–road deformation as boundary conditions. After parameterizing the ring model for a radial tire, the developed method is applied and validated by comparing the calculated three-axis accelerations with those measured by the accelerometer. Based on the features of acceleration, especially the distinct peak values corresponding to the tire leading and trailing edges, an intelligent tire identification algorithm is established to predict the tire–road contact length and tire vertical load. A simulation and experiments are conducted to verify the accuracy of the estimation algorithm, the results of which demonstrate good agreement. The proposed model provides a solid theoretical foundation for an acceleration-based intelligent tire.
