The micro-sphere support the high-order modes, which is easy to meet the phase matching condition with the modes in the quartz capillary, thus the mode of micro-sphere echo wall will be excited. The temperature sensing of a barium titanate micro-sphere was tested. A polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) micro-sphere was adopted to carry out the temperature sensing experiment for further enhancing the sensing sensitivity. The experimental results show that the temperature sensing sensitivity of PMMA micro-sphere can reach to 83.9 pm/℃, about eight times of that by the barium titanate micro-sphere, which plays an important role for improving the temperature sensing sensitivity..

A method for judging the leak of the central drain pipe was introduced. The influence of different leak locations on the alarm time after the leak of central drain pipe was analyzed through the numerical simulation. The simulation showed that the maximum difference between alarm times of the three leak locations was 1 308 s, which meant that the leak location had a greater impact on the alarm time. The feasibility of laser detection of oil-gas leak in central drain pipe was verified by using CH4 with a concentration of 10% instead of the oil-gas. The results show that the tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) technology can be used to detect the oil-gas concentration in the leak alarm system of central drain pipe, which provides a certain reference meaning for the design of the leak alarm system of central drain pipe of floating-roof tank..

In order to effectively measure the repeated positioning accuracy of the pinhole runner in vacuum environment, a measurement method based on the combination of laser and charge coupled device (CCD) was proposed, and the position repeatability of laser spot center of runner filtering pinhole was taken as the evaluation index of its repeated positioning accuracy. A complete set of measurement system was built, the laser spot filtered through the runner filtering pinhole was collected by CCD, and the laser spot image was preprocessed by the image processing methods, such as filtering and noise reduction, threshold segmentation, binarization and edge detection. The least square method was used for circle fitting of the laser spot, and the center coordinates of laser spot were obtained. Compared with laser interferometer in non- vacuum environment, the angular deviation between them was only 11″, which showed that the measurement method had high accuracy and met the measurement requirements. Finally, the repeatability measurement of the pinhole runner in vacuum environment was carried out for about 60 times forward and backward reciprocation in about 6 hours.

The light spot images located in different fields of view positions were obtained by using the pinhole imaging method to extract the modulation transfer function (MTF) of microscopic imaging system for board lens. The MTF mathematical model of lens system for board lens was established, and the MTFA in sagittal direction and meridian direction of edge field of view as well as the MTFA relative variation ratio were extracted to measure the microscopic imaging definition and image surface flatness of the measured lens. An experiment which was for measuring the board lens was carried out, and the microscopic imaging performance of the measured lens was quantitatively evaluated by using the proposed model and method. The results show that the Lens 2 can obtain the optimal microscopic imaging quality. The definition value of average power spectrum value (APSV), the gray mean gradient (GMG) and the laplacian summation (LS) were calculated respectively from the RGB bitmap images captured by these measured lens. The results show that the maximum parameter value of the APSV, GMG and LS of Lens 2 bitmap images is equal to 2.720 2, 17.024 4 and 94.921 2, respectively.

In the algorithm, the particles were used to characterize the individual whales so as to simulate the process of whale swarm for searching preys and guide the particles to move to the high-likelihood region. Firstly, the state value of particles in particle filter was taken as the individual position of the whale swarm, and the state estimation of particles was transformed into the optimization of the whale swarm. Secondly, the importance sampling process of particles was optimized through the spiral motion mode of the whale swarm, which made the particle distribution more reasonable. In addition, the optimal neighborhood random disturbance strategy was introduced for the global optimal value in the whale swarm algorithm, and the adaptive weight factor was added in the process of whale position update. Finally, a typical single-static non-growth model was selected for the simulation test. The test results show that compared with the standard particle filter and the particle filter optimized by the gravitational field, the mean square error of the proposed algorithm is reduced by 28% and 9% respectively under the premise of the same particle number, which verifies that the particle filter algorithm optimized by the whale swarm has the higher estimation accuracy, and in the case of fewer particles, the more accurate state estimation can be achieved..

Direction of polarization, as one of the basic information in polarization imaging technology, can reflect the direction information of object surface in the scene.

The conventionalDirection of polarization, as one of the basic information in polarization imaging technology, can reflect the direction information of object surface in the scene. Therefore, the distribution of polarization direction in the scene plays an important role in the interpretation of the scene information. The conventional representation method of polarization direction has two main problems: one is high dimension of mapping results for 2-D or 3-D information mapping methods, another one is low noise-robustness of mapping methods caused by the low distance correlation of mapping relationship. A 1-D numerical value mapping method of polarization direction information based on the interleaved sequence with distance-preserving property was proposed. Firstly, the direction information was extracted from the stokes vector component as the 2-D mapping method of polarization direction. Based on the interleaved sequence method, the 2-D numerical value was mapped into the 1-D numerical value. Then, the relationship between the distance-preserving property and mapping method to noise-robustness was studied, and the distance-preserving property of the proposed mapping method of polarization direction and the conventional mapping method of polarization angle was analyzed. Finally, the simulation experiment and real-scene experiment were conducted. In the simulation experiment, the peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) mean of the mapping results of proposed method was increased by 6% compared to the mapping method of polarization. In the real-scene experiment, the mapping results of proposed method reduced the information dimension compared to the mapping method of stokes vector and the no-reference PSNR (NRPSNR) mean of the non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) features was increased by 14% compared to the mapping method of polarization angle, which proved that the proposed mapping method has low information dimension and good noise-robustness..

The collected images were digitally processed to obtain the position coordinates of center of explosion spot in two images, and then combined with the relative position relationship between two cameras, the spatial location coordinates of explosion point were finally calculated. The experimental results show that at 24 m, 32 m, and 48 m from the measuring system, the absolute maximum error in the horizontal direction $X$ ![]()

Using the narrow-band light source as input, the edge filter method made the central wavelength shift of temperature sensor reflection spectrum correspond to the change in the output light intensity of demodulation optical path. The wavelength division multiplexing of arrayed wave-guide grating was used to realize the simultaneous measurement of multiple sensors, and the distributed measurement with multi-sensor and multi-channel was performed. The experimental results show that the wavelength demodulation range of the demodulation system is 1 545.30 nm~1 560.50 nm, the temperature range of 35 ℃~42 ℃ was detected, and the wavelength demodulation accuracy is ±5.34 pm. The temperature measurement error can reach to ±0.1 ℃..

However, due to the influences such as the transportation, repeated installation and movement of multi-sky-screen target, the change of ambient temperature in outfield testing, and the long-time usage, the measurement error of the firing density becomes larger. For the calibration of firing density of multi-sky-screen target, a method based on double theodolites and high-accuracy bullet holes screen was proposed. The coordinates of the bullet holes in the bullet holes screen were measured by intersection measurement of double theodolites, and then the density parameters were calculated by the density formula. The calculated density parameters were compared with that of the multi-sky-screen target to complete the calibration. By the firing practice, the uncertainty of firing density measured by double theodolites combined with bullet holes screen was evaluated. The results show that the uncertainty of the firing density measured by the proposed method is 1.6 mm, which can be used for the calibration of the multi-sky-screen target density..
