Joint Optical Performance Monitoring and Modulation Format/Bit-Rate Identification by CNN-Based Multi-Task Learning by Xiaojie Fan, Yulai Xie, Fang Ren, Yiying Zhang, Xiaoshan Huang, Wei Chen, Tianwen Zhangsun, Jianping Wang

“…A novel technique is proposed for joint multi-impairment optical performance monitoring (OPM) with bit-rate and modulation format identification (BR-MFI) in next-generation heterogeneous optic communication networks by convolution neural network (CNN)-based deep multi-task learning (MTL) on asynchronous delay-tap sampling phase portraits. Instead of treating the monitoring and identification tasks as separate problems, a novel MTL technique is used to joint optimization of them utilizing the ability of feature extraction and feature sharing. …”

Effects of Micro - Arc Oxidation on Dimensional Accuracy and Properties of 6061 Aluminum Alloy Bush by SONG Na, QIANG Wei, CHEN Zhen, GUO Xiu-qiao, ZHAO Chen-yu

“…At present, there are few studies on the film structure of micro-arc oxidation film on aluminum alloy and the dimensional accuracy change of precision thin wall parts before and after micro-arc oxidation.The samples of 6061 aluminum alloy bushing(precision thin wall parts), used for the aircraft engine fuel control system accessory，were treated by four different micro-arc oxidation processes(A, B, C and D).The microstructure，composition and micro-hardness of micro-arc oxidation ceramic layer were detected and analyzed.Besides, the inner diameter，the cylindricity and the surface roughness of the inner hole before and after MAO were tested.Results showed that the micro-arc oxidation ceramic layer obtained by C and D processing parameters with special auxiliary equipment had excellent properties.The surface hardness could reach 900 HV，which was 6 times of that of 6061 aluminum alloy matrix material.The micro-arc oxidation ceramic layer significantly improved the wear resistance and service life of parts, at the same time met the strict requirement of dimensional precision.This study laid a foundation for the engineering application of aluminum alloy micro-arc oxidation process.…”
