However, phase aberrations are additionally introduced due to component defects, misalignment, and environmental disturbances in the digital holographic microscopy measurement results. To obtain accurate quantitative phase measurement results, the origin and principal components of aberrations must be analyzed, and then compensate and corrected for aberrations. This review began with an introduction to the main sources and effects of aberrations in digital holographic microscopy imaging measurement. Then, the existing aberration correction methods were reviewed based on their different workflows and characteristics. Finally, the future development direction of aberration correction was prospected, which would provide useful references for researchers engaged in digital holographic detection research..

The effect of In indoor video viewing scenarios using visual display terminal (VDT), the VDT off-screen background light can reduce the discomfort caused by the contrast between light and dark inside and outside the screen, and the color as well as luminance properties of light will affect visual perception of people. The effect of indoor light environment on the visual perception of dynamic video viewing with VDT was explored, so as to create a VDT viewing light environment that can improve visual perception. The human factor engineering experiments were carried out based on psychophysical method, and the indoor light environment took the color/color temperature and luminance of the light as independent variables. In experiment 1, 3 kinds of color colors and 3 kinds of white color temperatures were set. In experiment 2, 8 kinds of luminance conditions were set, the video materials were categorized as high-dynamic video and low-dynamic video according to dynamic level, and the visual perception of the subjects watching the video using VDT under different light environment conditions was measured. The results show that the colored light is preferred, which conducts lower fatigue, higher comfort and other visual feelings than white light, among which the green light is the most comfortable condition. The luminance range of 9 cd/m2~30 cd/m2 is the most preferred, the condition range with best visual perception is 16 cd/m2~54 cd/m2, conducting lower fatigue, higher comfort, atmosphere and display color quality, and visual perception is worst when the luminance exceeds 330 cd/m2. The experimental results provide a reference for the study of the effect of indoor light environment on human visual perception, and provide practical guidance and suggestions for lighting design for improving visual perception of dynamic video viewing with VDT..

Current terahertz vortex wave generation devices are limited by operating at only a single frequency, having a narrow bandwidth and having low conversion efficiency, so how to efficiently generate OAM in the terahertz band has become one of the key issues. An ultra-wideband reflective meta-atom was proposed, and a single-layer reflective metasurface was designed by combining the Pancharatnam-Berry phase concept and the phase superposition principle. The simulation results show that it achieves the conversion of circularly polarized terahertz waves into terahertz vortex waves carrying orbital angular momentum in a wide frequency range from 0.82 THz to 2.09 THz (with the relative bandwidth of 87.3%). The amplitude of the co-polarized reflection spectrum is higher than 0.97, the conversion efficiency is more than 94.7%, and the reflection phase covers 0°~360°. The Fourier transform was used to decompose each OAM mode in the reflected field, and the OAM mode purity was quantitatively analyzed, with the highest energy weight share of the dominant OAM mode l=?2 in all vortex waves at different frequencies, and the designed metasurface was further optimized to increase the energy share of the dominant mode. The designed metasurface has the advantages of high conversion efficiency, large operating bandwidth, and high main mode energy, which provides a reference for the efficient generation of wideband terahertz vortex waves..

However, it is easy to produce the fog spots on the lens surface, like a bad lens. Through the analysis of the formation mechanism of lens fog spots, a non-contact preheating molding process was adopted to reduce the formation of it, and the molding experiments were carried out on a multi-station molding press, in which the elements of fog spots were detected and analyzed by using an energy spectrometer. In this molding experiment, the non-contact preheating method was used to increase the molding temperature from 206℃ to 211℃ when the preheating gap was 1 mm, with no fog spots formed on the lens surface, and the press-cutting time was shortened by 21 s. The results show that the non-contact preheating method in the multi-station molding press can effectively eliminate the formation of lens fog spots. The test results show that the volatilization of the lens material in the molding stage plays a dominant role in the formation of fog spots..

In order to more accurately recover the distribution of targets in space, a convergent quad-vision camera 3D reconstruction system was introduced. A reconstruction platform was designed and built with four cameras evenly distributed around the target scene. After calibrating the relative pose of adjacent cameras in the system, the position and pose of each camera in a unified coordinate system were obtained through coordinate system transformation. The pose of the camera with the most transformations was verified, and the measurement results were consistent with those derived from transformation. A chessboard target array of size 66×65 was reconstructed, with a maximum relative error of 0.061% within a range of 45 mm. Compared with the fitted results, the root-mean-square (RMS) error was 0.319 3 μm. By using a metal block for reconstruction experiments, the shape could be recovered through its vertices. Experimental results show that the device can be used in high-precision and occlusion-resistant 3D reconstruction systems..

A yarn paper tube classification method based on multiple fusion optimized template matching was proposed to address the problems that traditional image classification methods could not balance speed and accuracy, as well as high cost of deep learning, difficult deployment, and high hardware requirements. Several improved algorithms and strategies were adopted and three times data dimensionality reduction was used to accelerate the template matching speed. First, the optimization algorithm, successive elimination algorithm (SEA) used for motion estimation was used in template matching, and the threshold of this algorithm was improved to adaptive threshold for enhancing the robustness of the algorithm. Then, the wavelet pyramid was used to further reduce the amount of operations to improve its speed. Finally, the cross gray scale feature was used instead of the traditional sum of absolute differences (SAD) algorithm to calculate the performance index, and the strategy of stopping the iterative search in advance was used to further filter the data and set the cumulative error threshold to stop the search in advance. The matching experiments show that the improved algorithm guarantees the accuracy and the matching speed reaches about 0.126 s. The comparison and ablation experiments show that, under the premise of ensuring the accuracy, the speed of the algorithm is nearly 11 times higher than that of the traditional SAD algorithm, compared with some other classical methods in the speed are also improved, which verifies the effectiveness of the method..

Firstly, aiming at the problem that the background foreground of incoming air targets was easy to confuse, a background suppression module was introduced in the front end of the regional candidate network, which enhanced the foreground features by suppressing the background features and reduced the influence of the target background on detection. Secondly, the feature aggregation module was inserted after the background suppression module to focus on the target features, and to alleviate the problem that the target features were difficult to extract and not obvious due to few shot conditions, so as to correct the classification parameters of the network model. Finally, a contrast branch was introduced into the detection head network for enhancing the similarity within classes and uniqueness between classes, which alleviated the problem of high similarity between classes and large differences within classes of incoming targets, and realized the further correction of the network classification. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm performs best in the 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 shot experiments, with average accuracy reaching 28.3%, 32.8%, 39.9%, 42.9% and 56.2%, respectively, which improves the detection performance of few shots airborne incoming targets..

The relationship between PEM modulation amplitude and driving voltage was analyzed theoretically, and the equivalent circuit model of PEM and its resonance matching network were established. On this basis, the relationship between PEM resonant driving voltage and various parameters was derived, and the measurement system and verification method for the dynamic test of PEM were also designed. Theoretical simulation and experimental comparison of various characteristic curves were conducted on a PEM with a resonant frequency of 44.822 kHz, which verified the reliability of the dynamic measurement system, and the PEM optimal matching parameters were obtained by numerical simulation. Near the optimal matching parameters, the different matching parameters were selected to measure the actual resonance driving voltage. The correlation between the measurement results and the simulation curve reaches 0.996 4, and the change trend is basically consistent before 10 μF. The peak resonance driving voltage reaches 510 V, which is better than other driving matching methods and close to the theoretical maximum, and the relative error is less than 1.16%. The optimal matching parameter calculated by the PEM equivalent dynamic parameters can achieve the maximum driving efficiency of PEM..

However, due to the limitation of the numerical aperture of the objective lens, the reflected light on the surface of the sample is weakened with the increase of the slope when measuring the curved surface sample, and the contrast of the interference signal decreases, which leads to the increase of the error of topography measurement. Based on the theory of surface transfer function (STF), the inverse filter can be calculated to correct the topography measurement error of curved surface samples. However, the gain of the inverse filter of the existing method is limited, which is unable to elevate the high-frequency signal in the spectrum, and the improvement of the maximum measurable slope is limited. To address this issue, the modulus of the virtual STF calculated by the characteristic parameters of the white light interferometer was used as the amplitude gain function, and the phase of the measured STF obtained by the Fourier transform of the measured interferogram was used as the phase compensation function. A virtual-measured fusion inverse filter was formed, which realized the correction of the curved surface topography measurement error of white light interferometer. Using this method to correct the topography measurement results of the microsphere, the maximum measurable slope after correction is increased from 8.09° to 21.20°, and the root mean square error is reduced from 0.545 5 μm to 0.175 9 μm, which achieves the purpose of improving the maximum measurable slope of curved surface sample and reducing the measurement error, and effectively improves the measurement range of the instrument for the curved surface sample..

The distributed vibration response of the aircraft taxiing was collected by using the FBG array buried horizontally under the pavement. By analyzing the time-history impulse response features of multiple measurement areas, the time differences between the main and auxiliary landing gears passing through the optical cable were determined. The taxiing trajectory of the aircraft was sensed by the FBG array buried longitudinally under the pavement, through which the taxiing speed of the aircraft was determined by polynomial fitting. The aircraft type was identified based on matching relationship between the test value and the theoretical value of the main and auxiliary landing gears of the aircraft. The aircraft information in the test flight and the initial two-month operation of a certain airport were used for method verification. The results show that the identification accuracy of the proposed identification method can reach 98.44%, which can effectively distinguish the B757, B738, A320 and A321 models..

Shuangling GU, Feng ZHANG, Xia PENG, and Li ZHAO
Indoor non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) visible light communications (VLC) systems have the potential to enable high-rate multi-user communication. Nonetheless, the multipath effect may lead to a substantial reduction in communication reliability and user fairness. Therefore, a virtual time reversal mirror (VTRM) Indoor non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) visible light communications (VLC) systems have the potential to enable high-rate multi-user communication. Nonetheless, the multipath effect may lead to a substantial reduction in communication reliability and user fairness. Therefore, a virtual time reversal mirror (VTRM) technology for NOMA-VLC channel equalization to eliminate the influence of multipath effect on communication performance was proposed. Initially, the indoor NOMA-VLC system model and the characteristics of communication optical links in multi-user scenarios were analyzed. To leverage the sparsity characteristics of optical links gains, the sparsity adaptive matching pursuit (SAMP) algorithm was adopted to estimate the channel impulse response (CIR) of NOMA-VLC systems. On this basis, the VTRM method was introduced to equalize the channel of NOMA-VLC, reducing the impact of channel fading through the spatio-temporal focusing characteristics of VTRM, and the received signal was reconstructed to suppress the multipath effect. The theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the NOMA-VLC system equalized by the proposed algorithm improves the performance of user 1 by 4.4 dB, user 2 by 5.7 dB, improves the average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the two users by 5.05 dB, and reduces the performance difference between users from 1.6 dB to 0.5 dB, when the forward error correction (FEC) bit error rate (BER) threshold is met. Overall, this method provides an effective approach for NOMA-VLC channel equalization..
