Among various sensors for assisted and autonomous driving systems, automotive radar has been considered as a robust and low-cost solution even in adverse weather or lighting conditions. With the recent development of radar technologies and open-sourced annotated data sets, semantic segmentation with radar signals has become very promising. However, existing methods are either computationally expensive or discard significant amounts of valuable information from raw 3D radar signals by reducing them to 2D planes via averaging. In this work, we introduce ERASE-Net, an Efficient RAdar SEgmentation Network to segment the raw radar signals semantically. The core of our approach is the novel detect-then-segment method for raw radar signals. It first detects the center point of each object, then extracts a compact radar signal representation, and finally performs semantic segmentation. We show that our method can achieve superior performance on radar semantic segmentation task compared to the state-of-the-art (SOTA) technique. Furthermore, our approach requires up to 20×less computational resources. Finally, we show that the proposed ERASE-Net can be compressed by 40% without significant loss in performance, significantly more than the SOTA network, which makes it a more promising candidate for practical automotive applications.

In the field of plasma physics, the combination of the particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations with Monte Carlo collisions (MCC) has proven to be a significant tool for exploring the complexities of capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) discharges. Our prior work has showcased the effectiveness of the XPDP1 code, a PIC-MCC simulation tool, in aligning with the VSim simulation package for low-temperature helium CCP discharges. Advancing from this baseline, the current study broadens the examination to include argon discharges, presenting a detailed benchmarking of the XPDP1 code for argon gas settings. Argon CCP discharges introduce unique challenges compared to those of helium, including increased sensitivity to simulation variables like the number of particles and mesh sizes, and a more complex route to stabilization. To improve the precision of our simulations, we replaced the functional cross-sectional data in XPDP1 with the more detailed LXCat database, consistent with our method for helium discharges. This modification has led to a good agreement between the XPDP1 and the VSim simulations for both helium and argon CCP discharges. The thorough benchmarks of the XPDP1 code against VSim package not only validate both codes for different CCP discharges but serve as a foundation for extending the study of CCP discharges to higher dimensions. The findings confirm the adaptability and accuracy of XPDP1 in managing different gas environments in CCP simulations. Detailed simulation results and discussions will be presented.

Corona effects are one of the most important factors to take into consideration when designing an overhead transmission line. Corona discharges cause power loss which should be considered during transmission line design. Unconventional high surge impedance loading (HSIL) lines have subconductors placed anywhere in space and have no bundle symmetry. They have the potential to produce greater natural power than conventional lines and conventional HSIL lines. This paper calculates corona loss in both fair and foul weather conditions for an envisaged unconventional HSIL line. It is seen that the unconventional lines under discussion undergo much greater corona loss than the conventional lines and conventional HSIL lines.

The sequential fusion estimation for multisensor systems disturbed by non-Gaussian but heavytailed noises is studied in this paper. Based on multivariate t-distribution and the approximate t-filter,the sequential fusion algorithm is presented. The performance of the proposed algorithm is analyzed and compared with the t-filter-based centralized batch fusion and the Gaussian Kalman filter-based optimal centralized fusion. Theoretical analysis and exhaustive experimental analysis show that the proposed algorithm is effective. As the generalization of the classical Gaussian Kalman filter-based optimal sequential fusion algorithm, the presented algorithm is shown to be superior to the Gaussian Kalman filter-based optimal centralized batch fusion and the optimal sequential fusion in estimation of dynamic systems with non-Gaussian noises.
