摘要As investigated by 3GPP,support of UPF(user plane function)onboard satellite can reduce the latency of communications via satellite,and then it becomes a key enhancement in 5G network integrating with satellite communication.However,current 5G system cannot support UPF onboard LEO(low earth orbit)satellites,as it would face challenges like UPF mobility handling,synchronization between mobile network and satellite network,and condition of activating local data switching.To solve such challenges,this paper proposes a solution to support UPF onboard LEO satellite,which consists of enhanced network architecture,I-UPF(intermediate UPF)based local data switching scheme and communication latency based data path selection.We subsequently develop analytic models for performance evaluation and conduct simulations using the constellation configuration of iridium II.The simulation results show that the data switching via I-UPF onboard LEO satellite can reduce E2E(end to end)packet delivery latency and E2E packet loss ratio significantly compared with that of routing the data back to 5GC on the ground.The proposed scheme yet has increased signaling cost for handling UPF mobility.els,compared with existing similar companding algorithms.

摘要In recent years,there have been fewer missions to detect neutrons in low Earth orbits(LEO),and the data obtained have been extremely limited.Studying the distribution of the neutron energy spectrum in LEO satellites through detection can help solve three major scientific problems:the source of particles in the inner radiation belt,information on solar-accelerated particles,and the proportion of neutrons from different sources in near-Earth space.The detection efficiency and accuracy of neutrons are affected by charged and primary particles in the environment and secondary neutrons produced by the spacecraft itself,which has been a hot research topic.The neutron spectrometer developed in this study adopts two combinations of 15 silicon detectors in terms of detector type and arrangement,which are used for neutron detection via the nuclear reaction method and recoil proton method,respectively,in which a 27μm-thick6LiF conversion layer is used for thermal neutron detection up to 0.4 eV and a 300μm-thick high-density polyethylene conversion layer is used for fast-neutron detection up to 14 MeV and below.The design of the detector set can also remove the influence of primary charged particles and secondary neutrons in the detection environment to a certain extent,thereby improving the accuracy of neutron detection.In this study,the neutron spectrometer hardware,firmware,software design,and basic performance of the front-end readout chip SKIROC2A were tested.The readout circuit of each channel baseline ADC code was less than 17;thus,the channel consistency was good.The RMS noise of the channel baseline was only 7.1 mV and exhibited good stability.The maximum number of events that could be processed per second is 75.The overall power consumption was 3 W,the weight was 792 g,and the volume was less than 1 dm3.Furthermore,the neutron spectrometer was tested for principle and detection efficiency using various neutron sources,such as 241Am-Be neutron source,2.5 MeV neutron beam,and 14 MeV neutron beam,and the experiments were analyzed with corresponding simulations.The experimental data and simulation results were in good agreement and met the design requirements.The intrinsic detection efficiency of the probes used in the neutron spectrometer was 1.05%for 14 MeV fast neutrons.

摘要It is important for a lunar lander to possess a large divert capability during the final landing phase,as this can enhance the tolerance for flight deviations in the early phase or improve the obstacle avoidance performance.Therefore,when designing the powered descent trajectory,sufficient final phase divert capability should be reserved at the minimum propellant cost.To this end,a multi-phase trajectory programming(MPTP)method for powered descent with approaching phase divert capability is proposed.First,the entire powered descent trajectory is divided into the main braking phase and the approaching phase.The main braking phase is responsible for dissipating the majority of the initial velocity.The approaching phase is responsible for safely and precisely flying toward the landing site.It is nominally a vertical descent trajectory and possesses equal divert capability in all horizontal directions.Then,a constant-thrust linear tangent guidance(LTG)accounting for the lunar curvature is designed for the main braking phase.For the approaching phase,a variable-thrust lossless convex programming(LCP)guidance considering the constraints of tilt angle and glide-slope angle is developed.Subsequently,to connect the two phases and further optimize the propellant consumption throughout the entire trajectory,a method for determining the phase switching condition is proposed.The originally difficult-to-solve two-parameter optimization problem is decomposed into two more easily solvable subproblems,which are solved iteratively via a bilevel optimization framework.Finally,the divert capability of the proposed method is verified through numerical simulation.The programmed trajectory is basically consistent with the results of the pseudospectral method,with the difference in propellant consumption being only 0.006%.This method is suitable for the rapid iterative design of nominal trajectories for lunar lander powered descent in engineering applications.

摘要Amplitude Phase Shift Keying(APSK)is more suitable for the nonlinear channels of Low Earth Orbit(LEO)satellite communication systems compared to Quadrature Amplitude Modulation(QAM).To tackle challenges posed by Direct Current(DC)interference and high demodulation complexity,we propose an APSK demodulation algorithm based on K-means clustering.Initially,static DC components are calculated and removed from the received APSK signals.Subsequently,the estimated APSK constellation points serve as initial centers for K-means clustering.These centers are refined through the K-means process and act as theoretical APSK constellation points for the Max-Log-MAP demodulation algorithm,effectively eliminating residual DC.We then introduce a low-complexity APSK demodulation algorithm that utilizes the symmetry of constellation points along with the Euclidean distance between DC-eliminated signals and these constellation points to minimize the set of constellation points.Simulation results indicate that for 32-APSK,our proposed demodulation submodule reduces computational complexity to approximately one-third that of the Max-Log-MAP algorithm while improving Bit Error Rate(BER)performance by about 0.23 dB.Furthermore,end-to-end simulation experiments conducted within LEO satellite communication systems demonstrate that our approach not only maintains this complexity advantage but also enhances BER performance by approximately 1.1 dB.

摘要This paper delves into the H∞optimal output regulation problem for continuous-time linear systems with an unknown system model.By integrating the internal model principle with optimal control,we derive an optimal control policy and a worst-case disturbance policy through the formulation and solution of a zero-sum game problem.Subsequently,leveraging adaptive dynamic programming,we propose a policy iteration learning algorithm capable of learning both the optimal control policy and the worst-case disturbance policy directly from system data.The existing algorithms necessitate an initial stabilizing policy,a full-rank condition,and the storage of historical data to guarantee algorithm convergence.In contrast,we design a dual policy iteration algorithm equipped with an online learning mechanism,thereby eliminating these additional prerequisites.Simulation results with an antonomous ground vehicle underscore the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm,and its superiority is further demonstrated through comparisons with existing methodologies.

摘要The calculation of viewing and solar geometry angles is a critical first step in retrieving atmospheric and surface variables from geostationary satellite observations.Whereas the viewing angles for geostationary satellites are not timevarying,a primary source of inaccuracy in solar positioning is the use of a single timestamp.Since pixel scanning times can differ significantly across the field-of-view disk(e.g.,by approximately 13 min for Fengyun-4B),this practice leads to errors of up to±2°in solar zenith angle,which translates to±50 W m−2 in extraterrestrial irradiance;the errors in solar azimuth angle can exceed±100°.Beyond scanning time,this work also quantifies the impact of other inputs—including altitude,surface pressure,air temperature,difference between Terrestrial Time and Universal Time,and atmospheric refraction—on the resulting angles.A comparison of our precise calculations with the official National Satellite Meteorological Center L1_GEO product shows an accuracy within 0.1°,confirming its utility for most retrieval tasks.To facilitate higher precision when required,this work releases the corresponding satellite and solar positioning codes in both R and Python.

摘要Satellite image segmentation plays a crucial role in remote sensing,supporting applications such as environmental monitoring,land use analysis,and disaster management.However,traditional segmentation methods often rely on large amounts of labeled data,which are costly and time-consuming to obtain,especially in largescale or dynamic environments.To address this challenge,we propose the Semi-Supervised Multi-View Picture Fuzzy Clustering(SS-MPFC)algorithm,which improves segmentation accuracy and robustness,particularly in complex and uncertain remote sensing scenarios.SS-MPFC unifies three paradigms:semi-supervised learning,multi-view clustering,and picture fuzzy set theory.This integration allows the model to effectively utilize a small number of labeled samples,fuse complementary information from multiple data views,and handle the ambiguity and uncertainty inherent in satellite imagery.We design a novel objective function that jointly incorporates picture fuzzy membership functions across multiple views of the data,and embeds pairwise semi-supervised constraints(must-link and cannot-link)directly into the clustering process to enhance segmentation accuracy.Experiments conducted on several benchmark satellite datasets demonstrate that SS-MPFC significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods in segmentation accuracy,noise robustness,and semantic interpretability.On the Augsburg dataset,SS-MPFC achieves a Purity of 0.8158 and an Accuracy of 0.6860,highlighting its outstanding robustness and efficiency.These results demonstrate that SSMPFC offers a scalable and effective solution for real-world satellite-based monitoring systems,particularly in scenarios where rapid annotation is infeasible,such as wildfire tracking,agricultural monitoring,and dynamic urban mapping.

摘要The operational demands of a wide range significantly exacerbate combustion instability issues within ramjet combustor.To suppress combustion oscillations,an open-loop control system utilizing Linear Genetic Programming(LGP)has been developed for a full-scale annular ramjet combustor.The LGP is used to generate control laws that include multi-frequency forcing.These laws are then transformed into square waves to actuate the solenoid valve,which modulates the kerosene supply for open-loop control.The results show that the duty cycle has little effect on instability amplitude,whereas an increase in frequency leads to a remarked reduction in combustion amplitude.After five generations evolvements,the pressure amplitude is reduced by 40.6% under the optimal control law generated by LGP.Furthermore,the machine learning process is depicted using a proximity map of control law similarity,with the search pathway visualized by the steepest descent.All individuals go forward to the upper left corner of the map with the evolution process,terminating at the optimal individual of the fifth generation.

摘要With the development of Sixth-Generation(6G)mobile communication technologies,Low Earth Orbit(LEO)satellite communication systems have become extremely important in mobile communications owing to their large coverage,high efficiency,and low cost.However,the high dynamic LEO satellite channels cause serious time-frequency dual selective fading,significantly impairing the performance of conventional single time or frequency domain synchronization algorithms and limiting their applicability.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a synchronization algorithm based on Linear Frequency Modulation(LFM)signals and the Fractional Fourier Transform(FRFT).Exploiting the inherent robustness of LFM signals against frequency deviations and multipath effects,coupled with their energy concentration property in the optimal fractional Fourier domain,the proposed algorithm enables efficient synchronization with enhanced resilience to time-frequency variations.Furthermore,LFM preamble sequences are optimally designed for diverse channel conditions.This work presents a theoretical analysis of the time-frequency nonstationary characteristics of LEO satellite channels and discusses the performance limitations of traditional synchronization algorithms.The proposed integrated FRFTLFM synchronization framework and sequence optimization scheme are rigorously evaluated via comprehensive simulations.The results demonstrate substantial improvements in synchronization accuracy and computational efficiency compared with conventional methods,particularly under time-frequency dual selective fading LEO satellite channels.The algorithm provides a robust and reliable solution for time-frequency synchronization in LEO satellite communication systems,thereby enhancing overall system performance and reliability.
摘要Natural convection in enclosures containing nanofluids has attracted significant attention due to its relevance in thermal management systems.In this context,this study presents a comprehensive numerical investigation of flow and heat transfer in a square cavity saturated with water-based CuO nanofluid having a centrally placed sinusoidal-shaped heated element.All the enclosure walls satisfy the no-slip velocity condition.Thermally,the vertical walls are kept at a cold reference temperature,the lower wall is partially heated at its center,and the remaining portions of the lower and entire upper walls are adiabatic.The internal sinusoidal element is also uniformly heated.The flow dynamics and thermal fields are governed by the two-dimensional steady-state Navier-Stokes and energy equations,solved using the Galerkin finite element method.Additionally,a novel hybrid approach integrating multi-expression programming(MEP)technique with a convolutional neural network bidirectional gated recurrent unit(CNN-BiGRU)deep learning network is also applied to enhance flow and thermal prediction accuracy.This hybrid approach enables precise evaluation of how heater waviness,magnetic field orientation,and nanoparticle dispersion influence flow structure and heat transfer.Results reveal stronger convection at high Rayleigh numbers,magnetic damping at increased Hartmann numbers,and higher temperatures with reduced velocity at greater nanoparticle concentrations.Among the analyzed situations,increasing heater waviness improves heat-transfer performance.Both the MEP and CNN-BiGRU models accurately capture the key features of flow and heat transport trends,indicating that the hybrid approach provides enhanced predictive capability for complex convection-driven nanofluid systems.

摘要This paper proposes a hybrid sequential second-order cone programming(HSSOCP)method with a three-layer scheme for the entry trajectory optimization of the cross-domain morphing vehicles(CDMVs).By defining the new morphing rate control variable and using relaxation techniques to relax the bank angle constraint,the SOCP-based entry problem is constructed.A dynamic relaxation penal-ization technique is developed in the first layer to overcome artificial infeasibility and significantly enhance initialization robustness.A novel standard oscillation identification(SOI)method is proposed to precisely identify the iteration oscillations of basic SSOCP in the second layer,which can significantly improve the solution accuracy.A soft-trust-region strategy is applied in the third layer to eliminate oscillations and accelerate convergence.Simulation results of two scenarios demonstrate that the proposed SOI method effectively avoids non-standard oscillation interference versus traditional methods.The morphing aircraft can complete tasks better with a 7.01%and 10.43%reduction in heat load respectively compared to fixed-wing aircraft.The HSSOCP method can maintain accuracy while reducing computation time by 63.47%and 73.86%versus VATSSOCP.Monte Carlo simulations further validate the robustness.

摘要Terrestrial water enters the sea through estuaries as buoyant plumes.While the near-field water plume has been extensively investigated via campaign data and/or ocean modeling,the seasonal migration and spatial extent of the extended water plume remain poorly understood.Recently,global detection of Earth's mass migration has been achieved via satellite gravimetry,in particular the terrestrial water mass migrating to the ocean.Through causality-validated cross-correlation analysis between runoff and satellite gravimetric-derived water height corrected by atmospheric and oceanic mass variations without correcting runoff forcing over the Sunda Shelf Sea(SSS),we found that the extended water plume during summer first migrates northeast to~12°N,then clockwise along Borneo's coast to southwest of the SSS.Its transit pattern during winter yields a shorter duration to the northeast and southwest,and a longer duration to the middle of the SSS than those during summer.El Niño-Southern Oscillation(ENSO)mainly influences the winter transit pattern.Using sliding three-year data windows(2003–2015)for determining the transit pattern every year,we attribute the accelerated and retarded SSS transit patterns to prolonged La Niña and alternating ENSO events,respectively.Generated from the addition of altimetric-inferred geostrophic current and wind-driven Ekman current at the ocean surface,the simulated transit patterns show consistency with satellite gravimetric-determined winter transit patterns.Validation with isotope-estimated ages confirms improved accuracy over previous studies.

摘要This paper develops an Oscillation-avoidance-based Multistage Trust-region Sequential Convex Programming(OMTSCP)method for the highly nonlinear entry trajectory optimization problem of Cross-Domain Morphing Vehicles(CDMVs).The decoupling of states and controls for complex nonlinear dynamics is achieved by defining new control and state variables.A series of sub convex problems is formulated by successive linearization and discretization of the constraints.The proposed Trust-region Sequential Convex Programming(TSCP)scheme consists of three stages:an initial guess generation stage,a basic solution stage,and an optimal solution stage.An approach to penalize the dynamic relaxation is firstly developed to obtain an initial guess with considerable accuracy and significantly improve the robustness of the algorithm by overcoming the drawbacks of potential artificial infeasibility.The oscillation phenomenon of the TSCP method under rectangular trust region is then investigated,and a novel N-shape-based oscillation identification method is proposed to identify the oscillation accurately.Finally,an oscillation-avoidance method based on the sort trust-region is proposed to improve the convergence of the TSCP algorithm.Numerical comparisons of the proposed method and a typical TSCP method,as well as the morphing and fixed-morphing vehicles are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed method and the performance advantages of the morphing vehicle.The robustness of the method is further verified by Monte Carlo simulation.

摘要In Global Navigation Satellite Systems(GNSS),accurate and stable atomic clocks need to be equipped on satellites to ensure reliable,high-accuracy positioning,navigation,and timing services.It is essential to continuously monitor the behavior of satellite clocks in space and predict satellite clock corrections for real-time GNSS applications,especially for precise point positioning.Some commercial software is available for clock characterization,but special attention has to be paid when referring to satellite clocks,the analysis and prediction of which may be complicated by outliers,data gaps,and periodic fluctuations in onboard clock data,not often encountered by clock data from a timekeeping laboratory.The typical approaches for clock characterization and prediction currently employed in a timekeeping laboratory are therefore unsuitable for clock applications in space.We present a software package developed in MATLAB at the National Time Service Center,Chinese Academy of Sciences,intended for satellite clock characterization and prediction.The software package includes many subroutines and functionalities of particular interest in characterizing and predicting clock behavior in space,such as dynamic frequency stability evaluation,periodic fluctuation analysis,and multi-step prediction of clock signals.The software package allows handling of satellite clock data directly from Receiver Independent Exchange Format clock files widely used in GNSS,facilitating quick characterization analysis and prediction of satellite clocks,with graphically visualized output.
