RESUMEN
Atmospheric aerosol (including total suspended particulate (TSP) samples and fine particulate matter (PM2.5) samples) and precipitation samples were collected in Qingdao from May 2020 to June 2021. The concentrations of metal elements on fog days were 0.28-0.56 times that on clean days; those on haze-fog (HF), haze and dust days were 0.76-2.7, 1.2-3.6 and 1.7-5.7 times those on clean days, respectively. Compared with that on clean days, the solubility of metals on fog, HF and haze days increased by 4 %-193 %, but that on dust days decreased by 1 %-62 %. The dry deposition fluxes of dissolved Al, Fe, Zn, Pb, Cu and Cd were the highest on HF or haze days, which were 2.2-15 times clean days. The dry deposition fluxes of metals accounted for 56 %-89 % of the total deposition fluxes (including dry and wet deposition).

A novel low-density composite for the absorption of microwaves was prepared by loading La-doped spinel cobalt ferrite (La-CFO) onto biomass carbon (BC) derived from corn stalks using a hydrothermal method. This composite (La-CFO@BC) not only maintained the advantageous properties of low density and abundant porosity, but also exhibited a unique morphology, with La-CFO displaying a carpet-like structure interspersed with dandelion-shaped particles. The incorporation of La-CFO effectively tuned the electromagnetic parameters of the composite, thereby improving its impedance-matching attributes and its ability to absorb microwave radiation. At a frequency of 12.8 GHz for electromagnetic waves and with a thickness of 2.5 mm, La-CFO@BC demonstrated remarkable performance in microwave absorption, attaining a noteworthy minimum reflection (RLmin) of -53.2 dB and an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 6.4 GHz. Furthermore, by varying the thickness of the La-CFO@BC within the range of 1.0 to 5.5 mm, the EAB could be broadened to 13.8 GHz, covering the entire X-band, the entire Ku-band, and a substantial portion of the C-band. This study demonstrated that La-CFO@BC was a promising alternative for electromagnetic wave attenuation, which offered superior performance in microwave absorption.
RESUMEN
Reverberation in real environments is an important factor affecting the high resolution of target sound source localization (SSL) methods. Broadband low-frequency signals are common in real environments. This study focuses on the localization of this type of signal in reverberant environments. Because the time reversal (TR) method can overcome multipath effects and realize adaptive focusing, it is particularly suitable for SSL in a reverberant environment. On the basis of the significant advantages of the sparse Bayesian learning algorithm in the estimation of wave direction, a novel SSL is proposed in reverberant environments. First, the sound propagation model in a reverberant environment is studied and the TR focusing signal is obtained. We then use the sparse Bayesian framework to locate the broadband low-frequency sound source. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed method for broadband low-frequency targeting in a reverberant environment, simulations and real data experiments were performed. The localization performance under different bandwidths, different numbers of microphones, signal-to-noise ratios, reverberation times, and off-grid conditions was studied in the simulation experiments. The practical experiment was conducted in a reverberation chamber. Simulation and experimental results indicate that the proposed method can achieve satisfactory spatial resolution in reverberant environments and is robust.
RESUMEN
In this paper, we investigate the energy efficiency optimization for a parallel relay-assisted underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) system with simultaneous lightwave information and power transfer (SLIPT) over an aggregate channel. In this system, relay nodes are equipped with energy harvesting devices, getting energy from the direct current component of the received signal transmitted by the source node. These nodes utilize the harvested energy to transmit the signal to the destination node with the decoding and forwarding strategy. The harvested energy for each relay node is derived by the Gauss-Laguerre quadrature formula and the outage probability is deduced by the Meijer-G function. Then, the system's energy efficiency can be calculated and an energy efficiency maximization problem is built up with respect to the bias current. We propose a three-level-iteration algorithm to solve this problem. In the first level, the Dinkelbach method is used to represent energy efficiency in a parametric subtractive form. In the second level, we use the penalty function method to convert the object function and constraint. In the third level, the objective function is transformed into a quadratic function by using a successive convex approximate method, thereby solving for the bias current. The effects of system parameters on energy efficiency are also analyzed. Theoretical results and Monte Carlo simulations suggest that employing the solved bias current can significantly improve the system's energy efficiency.
