局域波互信息降噪在齿轮箱故障诊断中的应用 by 都衡, 潘宏侠

“…For the randomness and blindness of removal of the noisy component and false component after local wave decomposition,a method of local wave mutual information noise reduction is proposed.Firstly,the decomposition of the signal is carried out by using the local wave and the mutual information of each IMF component with the original signal is calculated.Secondly,the component with high mutual information is selected for autocorrelation analysis to remove the noise component,and the signal is reconstructed by using the valid component.In order to verify the effectiveness of the method,the simulation signal is used for analyzing,and applied it to the gearbox fault diagnosis.The gearbox vibration signal wavelet transform is carried out after local wave mutual information noise reduction,and the wavelet singular spectrum entropy is extracted as the fault feature to identify faults.The results are compared with the noise reduction processing recognition results prove the practicality of the local wave mutual information noise reduction in engineering practice.…”

A compact frequency reconfigurable beam switching antenna based on a single‐layer FSS by Guang Li, Yangyang Ye, Fushun Zhang

“…The omnidirectional radiation pattern of the dipole antenna designed as a radiation source and surrounded by the FSS can be converted into directional radiation pattern sweeping along the entire azimuthal plane at two single frequency of 2.4 or 5 GHz. The frequency selection is achieved by controlling the diode state of the FSS unit, and the beam switching is realised by a specific combination of electromagnetic wave reflection or transmission from the hexagonal FSS. …”
