船舶轴频电场跟踪

针对轴频电场包络跟踪中先验信息缺失的问题,研究了船舶轴频电场跟踪对传感器阵列的基本要求,引入了一种基于最大似然选择的多初值渐进更新扩展卡尔曼滤波算法。建立船舶轴频电场包络跟踪的状态空间模型,用水平电偶极子对船舶轴频电场包络进行建模;建立基于最大似然选择的多初值模型;基于轴频包络信号特征,研究了对传感器阵列排布方式的要求。仿真结果表明,利用轴频电场包络对船舶进行跟踪是可行的,要求传感器阵列至少由3个传感器组成,且3个传感器不在一条直线上;在传感器阵列满足要求的情况下,该算法可以有效解决轴频电场包络跟踪中的先验信息缺失问题,具有较高的实用价值。     

扩张状态观测器的观测误差前馈补偿设计

在"总和"扰动模型未知的前提下,针对线性扩张状态观测器跟踪时变信号精度不高的问题,设计出一种前馈观测补偿器。在分析线性扩张状态观测器观测原理的基础上,通过对扰动项的线性近似、误差系统动态响应的忽略,在时域内推导出观测静差的量化表达式,进而使用扰动微分项的估计值替代真值对观测作前馈补偿。理论分析了替代的可行性,证明了补偿器减小观测误差幅值、超前校正观测相位滞后的作用。将这一补偿思想推广至非线性扩张状态观测器中。通过仿真对补偿器提高观测精度、加快误差收敛的有效性进行检验,实验结果进一步表明,补偿器的引入能显著提高整个自抗扰控制系统的控制精度,从而证明了这种补偿思路的可行性。

The making of the EU Global Strategy

This article traces the evolution of the EU strategic reflection which culminated in the publication of the EU Global Strategy (EUGS) in June 2016. It explains the choices made by EU High Representative Federica Mogherini over this time period—including both the initial strategic assessment and the final EUGS. It provides a behind the scenes view on the players, the organization and the methods of work used to produce a strategic vision for the EU’s role in the world.     

The Dark Side of Extended Deterrence: Thinking through the State Sponsorship of Terrorism

States employ extended deterrence to shield third parties from aggression. The concept is traditionally applied to interstate relations, collective security arrangements, and strategic considerations. The protective relationship that exists between a state sponsor of terrorism and its non-state militant proxy is rarely considered. This article will introduce and explore the sponsor–proxy relationship in the context of extended deterrence, and relate it to Iran’s support and sponsorship of political violence, militancy, and terrorism in Europe. The article reviews the rationale states have for sponsoring terrorism, and illustrates the promises and pitfalls associated with extending deterrence to non-state militants.

Technical and proliferation‐related aspects of the dismantlement of Russian Alfa‐Class nuclear submarines

When does a state become a “nuclear weapon state”? How we choose to answer this question has significant implications for proliferation assessment, analysis, and policy. Traditionally, the standard demarcation line has been a state's first nuclear test, but in recent years analysts have increasingly focused instead on the accumulation of a significant quantity (SQ) of fissile material. The article argues that although the test/no-test indicator clearly has problems, its replacement by the SQ/no-SQ indicator would be highly counterproductive. The article instead proposes supplementing the traditional test/no-test indicator with a theory-driven approach that focuses on the incentives and disincentives to test.     

THE NUCLEAR WEAPON STATES

The nuclear weapon states (NWS) have different perspectives on the desirability and feasibility of a world without nuclear weapons. A review of each of the current nuclear doctrines, postures, and disarmament policies of the five NWS shows that there is a clear divide between them, with some showing relatively determined leadership (the United States and the United Kingdom) and others expressing skepticism, if not complete disinterest (France, Russia, and China). Nevertheless, the prospects for progress on disarmament by the NWS at the 2010 Review Conference of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons remain reasonably good. Yet complete success will require much time as well as sustained and applied efforts from the NWS, first and foremost to improve their performance as international security guarantors.     

一种纯方位跟踪中的自适应滤波算法
