摘要: A method for mapping distribution of chemical compounds in soil is described herein including inserting a probe into the soil, obtaining spectroscopic data regarding the soil, sampling a core of soil adjacent to the probe locations, dividing the core into multiple depth increments, analyzing the core samples, matching each core sample with a corresponding depth increment of the probe insertions, obtaining data from the probe insertions, dividing the probe insertion data into training, validation, and test categories, resampling spectral variables from the probe insertion data to a wavelength interval longer than a native wavelength interval of an associated spectrometer, normalizing the probe insertion data on a spectrum by spectrum basis, utilizing a machine learning normalization algorithm, standardizing the spectral variables to a common scale by removing a mean and scaling to unit variance, and choosing a model utilizing the test set.

摘要: Position information estimation in a distributed radio frequency (RF) communications system is provided. Embodiments disclosed herein facilitate high-precision estimations of positions, orientations, velocities, and acceleration of network nodes in a distributed RF network. The distributed RF communications system incorporates a series of estimation processes which makes it susceptible to propagation of errors. To ensure robustness of the distributed RF communications system, relative positions of network nodes are tracked by iteratively tracking parameters used for estimating position information. Some embodiments take advantage of Kalman filtering algorithms by leveraging principles directed by physics. At every network node, several filtering algorithms can be employed to synchronize clocks, track delay between multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antennas and estimate position and orientation of other network nodes. Information from other sensors like global positioning system (GPS) and inertial navigation system (INS) can also be employed to further improve estimation processes.

摘要: Techniques for improved GNSS positioning include leveraging approximate location information and information from sensors of a mobile device, and/or sensors communicatively coupled therewith, to detect obstructions and determine which SVs may be blocked from direct view. In particular, information from one or more cameras, LIDAR, radar, and/or other sensor systems can be used to determine how nearby obstructions may block the view of portions of the sky from the perspective of the mobile device, then compared with a SkyPlot of SVs based on the mobile device's approximate location to determine which SVs are likely blocked from view. A GNSS position determination of the mobile device can then be made by reducing the weight of information received from blocked (obstructed) SVs.

摘要: Systems and methods are provided for compensating for mechanical acceleration at a reference oscillator. A reference oscillator provides an oscillator output signal and an accelerometer on a same platform as the reference oscillator, such that mechanical acceleration at the reference oscillator is detected at the accelerometer to produce a measured acceleration. A filter assembly, having an associated set of filter weights, receives the measured acceleration from the accelerometer and provides a tuning control signal responsive to the measured acceleration to a frequency reference associated with the system. An adaptive weighting component receives the oscillator output signal of the reference oscillator and an external signal that is provided from a source external to the platform and adjusts the set of filter weights for the filter assembly based on a comparison of the external signal and the oscillator output signal.

摘要: A method of calibrating a total station using a GNSS device includes physically coupling the total station with the GNSS device at a first location; determining the position of the total station at the first location based on position data received by the GNSS device; decoupling the total station from the GNSS device; moving the GNSS device to a second location while leaving the total station at the first location; determining the position of the GNSS device at the second location based on position data received by the GNSS device; adjusting the position of a camera on the total station to image the GNSS device while at the second location; determining axes of the camera based on the orientation of the camera and the determined positions at the first and second locations; and calibrating encoders of the total station based on the determined axes.

摘要: A system is disclosed for determining a physical metric such as position. The system comprises a local signal generator (8) configured to provide a local signal and a receiver (4) configured to receive a signal having properties corresponding to those in a signal transmitted by a trusted remote source. An inertial measurement unit (12) is configured to provide a measured or assumed movement of the receiver. A correlator (6) is configured to provide a correlation signal by correlating the local signal with the received signal. A motion compensation unit (14) is configured to provide motion compensation of at least one of the local signal, the received signal, and the correlation signal based on the measured or assumed movement. A signal analysis unit (16) is configured to determine whether the received signal includes a component received in a direction that is different to a line-of-sight direction between the receiver and the trusted remote source, wherein the determination is based on the correlation signal. Finally, a metric determination unit or positioning unit (20) is configured to determine a physical metric associated with the receiver, such as its position, based on the determination made by the signal analysis unit (16).

摘要: This disclosure relates generally to root zone moisture estimation for vegetation cover using remote sensing. Conventionally, it is challenging to estimate root zone soil moisture using only satellite data. Moreover, estimation of soil moisture under vegetation cover based on bare surface soil moisture and vegetation parameters is not available. The disclosed method and system facilitate estimation of an ensemble of soil moisture under vegetation cover and root zone soil moisture using process based soil water balance for spatial estimation of root zone soil moisture. The system estimates bare surface soil moisture for different soil types/textures using the baseline bare surface model and soil properties derived from satellite data and in-situ sensors. The method further provides temporal spatially distributed soil moisture inputs to an intelligent irrigation management/information system which is very important to reduce and regulate water consumption.
