The passive detection of low-altitude signal sources is studied using an improved cross-correlation method in the time–frequency domain. A matching template is designed for signal cross-correlation, and a cross-correlation threshold is used to determine whether a signal source is present or not. An improved cross-correlation method is also proposed to estimate the direction of arrival and communication frequency of a signal source. Furthermore, the distance and signal-to-noise ratio are estimated using an energy detector. Outdoor data from a bridge in the Jimo District, Qingdao, and indoor data from a research laboratory are used for performance evaluation. The results obtained show that the proposed method can provide better passive detection of low-altitude signal sources compared to several well-known algorithms in the literature. In addition, this method is more suitable for long-distance detection.

In order to study the detection methods of weak transient electromagnetic radiation signals, a detection algorithm integrating generalized cross-correlation and chaotic sequence prediction is proposed in this paper. Based on the dual-antenna test and cross-correlation information estimation method, the detection of aperiodic weak discharge signals under low signal-to-noise ratio is transformed into the estimation of periodic delay parameters, and the noise is reduced at the same time. The feasibility of this method is verified by simulation and experimental analysis. The results show that under the condition of low signal-to-noise ratio, the integrated method can effectively suppress the influence of 10 noise disturbances. It has a high detection probability for weak transient electromagnetic radiation signals, and needs fewer pulse accumulation times, which improves the detection efficiency and is more suitable for long-distance detection of weak electromagnetic radiation sources.

Data Reduction Technique

As the HREM becomes increasingly used for the study of dynamic localized phenomena, the development of techniques to recover the desired information from a real image is important. Often, the important features are not strongly scattering in comparison to the matrix material in addition to being masked by statistical and amorphous noise. The desired information will usually involve the accurate knowledge of the position and intensity of the contrast. In order to decipher the desired information from a complex image, cross-correlation (xcf) techniques can be utilized. Unlike other image processing methods which rely on data massaging (e.g. high/low pass filtering or Fourier filtering), the cross-correlation method is a rigorous data reduction technique with no a priori assumptions.We have examined basic cross-correlation procedures using images of discrete gaussian peaks and have developed an iterative procedure to greatly enhance the capabilities of these techniques when the contrast from the peaks overlap.

State Information

In this paper, we propose a novel gesture recognition system based on a smartphone. Due to the limitation of Channel State Information (CSI) extraction equipment, existing WiFi-based gesture recognition is limited to the microcomputer terminal equipped with Intel 5300 or Atheros 9580 network cards. Therefore, accurate gesture recognition can only be performed in an area relatively fixed to the transceiver link. The new gesture recognition system proposed by us breaks this limitation. First, we use nexmon firmware to obtain 256 CSI subcarriers from the bottom layer of the smartphone in IEEE 802.11ac mode on 80 MHz bandwidth to realize the gesture recognition system’s mobility. Second, we adopt the cross-correlation method to integrate the extracted CSI features in the time and frequency domain to reduce the influence of changes in the smartphone location. Third, we use a new improved DTW algorithm to classify and recognize gestures. We implemented vast experiments to verify the system’s recognition accuracy at different distances in different directions and environments. The results show that the system can effectively improve the recognition accuracy.

A local search Maximum Likelihood (ML) parameter estimator for mono-component chirp signal in low Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) conditions is proposed in this paper. The approach combines a deep learning denoising method with a two-step parameter estimator. The denoiser utilizes residual learning assisted Denoising Convolutional Neural Network (DnCNN) to recover the structured signal component, which is used to denoise the original observations. Following the denoising step, we employ a coarse parameter estimator, which is based on the Time-Frequency (TF) distribution, to the denoised signal for approximate estimation of parameters. Then around the coarse results, we do a local search by using the ML technique to achieve fine estimation. Numerical results show that the proposed approach outperforms several methods in terms of parameter estimation accuracy and efficiency.

We propose a new cross-correlation method that can recognize independent realizations of the same type of stochastic processes and can be used as a new kind of pattern recognition tool in biometrics, sensing, forensic, security and image processing applications. The method, which we call bispectrum correlation coefficient method, makes use of the cross-correlation of the bispectra. Three kinds of cross-correlation coefficients are introduced. To demonstrate the new method, six different random telegraph signals are tested, where four of them have the same power density spectrum. It is shown that the three coefficients can map the different stochastic processes to specific sub-volumes in a cube.
