Filtering Methods of the Digital Speckle fringe Pattern
FU Si-hua, YU Qi-feng
2005, 26(4): 5-8.
Abstract:
In modern digital speckle measurement method, we usually adopt subtraction to derive a digital speckle fringe pattern, which is information carrier for postprocessing and inherently full of multiplicative noise. Noise reduction is needed before next processing step in order to guarantee the measurement precision. Which filtering methods should be adopted is much important. The authors expatiate some often used filtering methods in the digital speckle fringe pattern after reading a lot of concerned papers. Some representative filtering methods are selected for the purpose and the results are analyzed. At the end of the paper, the development direction of the filtering methods of digital speckle fringe pattern is presented.

2005, 26(4): 9-12.
Abstract:
In this paper,the region splitting of multigray level picture is directly brought about with a optical step filter. It is discussed in theory that a step filter processes a multigray picture with hard and soft boundaries to realize the region splitting of the multigray level picture. The discussion shows that with the step filter. The boundary enhancement in the region will appear when the noncontinuous gray grade (a hard boundary) and the epoch emerge in the multi-gray picture .

2005, 26(4): 13-16.
Abstract:
Based on a short retrospect of the developmental history of light scattering theory, the problems in conventional Mie scattering calculations are analyzed. A simple yet accurate algorithm for the improved Mie scattering calculations is described in detail. A new data type named“EDecimal” is defined, and its basic mathematical operation and trigonometric functions are developed. The dynamic chain is used in implementing the efficient C++ code for fast and accurate Mie calculation.The code can handle extreme cases in Mie scattering calculations and reduce the time complexity of this algorithm. By comparison with Wiscombe's MIEV0 code requiring a same precision,this method shows up its the accuracy and reliability.

ifference of the Image Deformation Formulas with the Textbooks
WANG Jin-li, WANG Fei-fei
2005, 26(4): 61-65.
Abstract:
:Cut a regular hexahedron into innumerable parallel fracture planes, in each of which there is a light cone. With observing in the innumerable light cones the variations of the fracture plane sections with the projective sections, and the sections with their own projections,we came to the following conclusions :1) Xray image deformation is due to the function of light cones;2) no matter whether the object projective plane make an angle,the function of the direct incidence and oblique incidence of the lightcone axial beam keeps constant;3) the elliptical eccentricity of each fracture plane section reflects the space deflection of the object, which is the real deformation factor;4) if the elliptical eccentricity of the projective section is respectively bigger than, equal to or less than the elliptical eccentricity of the fracture plane section,the projection length of fracture surface’s centre vertical diameter and the real length is respectively bigger than,equal to or less than the projection length of the horizontal diameter across the centre of that projection and the real length;5) if the object is at an angle to the projective plane,it will lead to the unequal amplification of the fracture surface’s projection;6) the deformation degree is in direct proportion to the thickness of the object, and it is in inverse change to the distance from the point source to the object, but bears no relation to the distance from the object to projective plane;7) the dissertation in the textbooks stands in error.

2005, 26(4): 22-25.
Abstract:
Image intensifiers with high resolution are strict with the pore, space construction and FOV definition of microchannel plate (MCP) with a large number of experiments, we extended progress in the MCP making technique and then fabricated some MCPs whose pores are 6μm and pitches are 8μm. Comparing our MCPs with the MCPs delivered by Photonis Company, we found the rosettes in our MCPs are less than the ones in theirs. In the case of standard input(10-11A/cm2), the gain of MCP is high, the uniformity of gain is improved, the fixedpattern noise is in the level of 0~1, the definition of FOV is high.

In the case of the condition of finite test data, in order to solve the problem of reliability prediction for a certain type of laser range finders, which are produced on a small scale and complicated, reliability models are established with analyses of the operating modes of the rangefinders. On the basis of the test data from the previous similar products, reliability of the system is predicted with the method of similar circuit. According to the life of laser crystal, dye piece,totally reflecting mirror, light focusing cavity and so on, laser life is predicted.These predicting values are verified in actual use. This serves the function of reference in system design and application.

Abstract:
The construction of the encoding fiber Bragg grating sensor array and the characteristic of its sensing signal are introduced. A new type of interrogator for encoding fiber Bragg grating sensor array, which has a comb structure and employs the logarithm of the output ratio between the adjacent two channels of arrayed waveguide grating to determine the measured wavelength,is proposed. The paper demonstrates the feasibility of this interrogation project in theory in the cases of background reflectance and the ideal case respectively and analyzes the error caused by the noise. This system is suitable for interrogating a large number of wavelength information, and can carry out a fast and simultaneous interrogation of multiple wavelengths without any mechanically moving parts.
