The purpose of this paper is to achieve an exhaustive and generalized method for the accurate calculation of the linear system settling time. Thus, the classical settling time expressions for the second-order linear systems are reviewed. Then, new expressions are proposed and developed for the step response of the second-order and for higher-order under-damped and over-damped linear systems. The proposed expressions are different from all the existing ones, and they are more accurate. In addition, iterative algorithms that can be easily implemented are proposed in order to achieve accurate calculation of the settling time. The accuracy of the new expressions and the proposed iterative algorithms are illustrated by several numerical simulation examples.

In the research of blind spectrum sensing, unsupervised learning has been regarded as a promising technology to detect spectrum status without any prior knowledge or labeled signals. However, the detection performance of the existing unsupervised sensing methods is usually far below that of supervised sensing methods. In order to overcome this problem, we propose an iterative unsupervised learning based cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) algorithm, where the concept of iteration is introduced to improve detection performance. Specifically, in each iteration, i) The CSS technology is first used to make global labels by combining the local labels of the individual detectors constructed in the last iteration;ii) And then, individual detectors are constructed by utilizing supervised learning to fit the mapping from local sample set to the current global labels. During above iterative process, the global labels contribute to improving individual detectors, while these improved individual detectors can cooperatively make more accurate global labels, which will be utilized in next iteration. Finally, with the increase of the number of iterations, these individual detectors can be used to online cooperatively detect spectrum status when there are only slight changes in global labels. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve comparable individual and cooperative detection performance with the existing supervised sensing methods over a wide signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) region.

This research examined the feasibility of incorporating an acoustic metric into the optimization of an aircraft trajectory to reduce the noise experienced by an observer. The method investigated a perturbed path of an unmanned aerial system with specified boundary conditions on position and velocity while maintaining a nominal flight speed. An acoustic model based on Gutin's work was developed to estimate propeller noise as a function of flight parameters, propulsion characteristics, and spatial location. A trajectory was then optimized a priori to reduce the noise experienced by an observer. Multiple simulations were performed and results showed that integrating an acoustic metric into the path planning process could be used to reduce the noise impact on an observer with no perturbation to the nominal flight speed.

Newton's method for solving nonlinear systems of equations have historically been augmented with pseudo-transient continuation (PTC) methods as a strategy for constructing a globally convergent nonlinear iterative algorithm. The PTC-Newton algorithm is often combined with other globalisation approaches such as line searches and residual smoothing to improve overall convergence and robustness of the method [1]. In this work a nonlinear subiteration strategy is applied to the steps of the PTC procedure to improve the robustness of the overall nonlinear iterative method. This method is compared against a baseline PTC-Newton algorithm and a residual smoothing procedure proposed by Mavriplis et al. [2]. Two problems are studied in order to quantify differences in robustness and convergence properties between the methods. These problems are: a simulation of subsonic, turbulent flow over a Joukowski aerofoil using the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations and a simulation of inviscid, supersonic flow in a ramp channel using the Euler equations with artificial viscosity for shock capturing. Results indicate the subiteration strategy can ameliorate convergence challenges that might traditionally result in backtracking failure or stagnation. The subiteration strategy is shown to converge in cases where both PTC-Newton and residual smoothing methods encounter failure, and this robustness is then leveraged to enable stronger CFL ramping. Significant robustness and efficiency benefits are shown in both cases

Finding vital vertices is an important issue in complex network analysis, which has wide applications in disease control, information diffusion, etc. This topic has attracted increasing attention from various disciplines. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm called Vertex-Edge algorithm to find vital vertices. This algorithm takes both the incident edges and also its neighbors into consideration when evaluating a vertex's importance, and the importance of vertices and edges construct a mutually updated iterative framework. We also give convergence conditions for the iterative framework. Besides, we verify the stability, effectiveness, accuracy, and superiority of this new Vertex-Edge algorithm by applying it on lots of networks (unweighted or weighted) and comparing the results with other 10 more existing methods. This new method is expected to have promising applications in the future.

H-tensor plays an important role in identifying the positive (semi-) definiteness of even-order real symmetric tensor. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for identifying general H-tensor and prove the algorithm will terminate within finite iterative steps. As application, we give an iterative method for identifying positive semi-definiteness of the even order symmetric tensor. At last, some numerical examples are provided to illustrate the efficiency and validity of methods we have proposed. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

In this paper, five iterative methods for solving two coupled fuzzy Sylvester matrix equations are considered. The two coupled fuzzy Sylvester matrix equations are expressed by using the generalized inverse of the coefficient matrix, then iterative solutions are constructed by applying the hierarchical identification principle and by using the block-matrix inner product (the star product for short). A proposed modification to this algorithm to solve the first coupled fuzzy Sylvester matrix equations is suggested. This proposed modification is compared with the first algorithm where our modification exhibits fast convergence behavior. Also, we suggested two least-squares iterative algorithm by applying a hierarchical identification principle to solve the two coupled fuzzy Sylvester matrix equations. The proposed methods are illustrated by numerical examples.

Traditionally, the angle of arrival (AOA) estimation problem for multiple sources is considered as a nonlinear problem with no analytic solutions. In this paper, an analytic iterative multiple-source AOA algorithm (AIMA) is presented for fast and accurate estimation of the AOA. The approach is most useful for automotive MIMO radars where there can be a large number of scatterers in the scene. The AOA estimation problem is divided into two main tasks: (1) estimate one AOA with the prior knowledge of all other AOA;(2) estimate all AOA by iteratively solving Task 1. It can be shown that for a uniform linear array (ULA) Task 1 has analytic solutions and Task 2 converges very fast, which makes this method effective, efficient and practical for real-time processing. Unlike many other AOA estimation methods, this approach doesn't need the information about the number of sources and can be applied for coherent signals and single snapshot as well.

In this paper, the Hermitian positive definite solutions of the matrix equation X-s + A* X-t A = Q, where A is an n x n nonsingular complex matrix, Q is an n x n Hermitian positive definite matrix and s, t > 0, are discussed. Some conditions for the existence of Hermitian positive definite solutions of this equation are derived. In addition, two iterative methods to obtaining the maximum or minimum Hermitian positive definite solutions of this equation are proposed. In addition, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of these solutions is presented. Theoretical results are illustrated by some numerical examples.

According to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, an analysis window with a high time resolution in time domain will result in a low frequency resolution in frequency domain, and vice versa. To obtain the Gabor spectrum with high time-frequency resolution and concentration, weighted multiwindow discrete Gabor transform (M-DGT) using weights and the biorthogonal analysis method for analyzing long (or infinite) sequences is proposed in this paper, in which the combined Gabor coefficients constructed by a combination of M-DGT coefficients can be adaptively changed according to the time-frequency distributions of an analyzed signal containing multiple time-varying frequencies. To obtain the weights of the weighted M-DGT, the M-DGT is converted into a sparse problem with l(1)-l(2) regularization, then an efficient iterative algorithm for solving the weights in terms of real-valued matrix and real-valued vector is derived. The convergence of the iterative algorithm is proved by optimization theory. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is an effective and efficient tool for nonstationary timefrequency analysis of signals. (C) 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
