Accurate estimation of finger bending angles is essential in rehabilitation, as it enables precise assessment of a patient’s joint motion and recovery progress. Soft robotic devices can leverage this information to provide adaptive and safe assistance, facilitating effective and personalized therapy sessions. In this article, a soft pneumatic actuator designed for the index finger is utilized to assist finger movements during rehabilitation. Because the actuator’s bending behavior depends on the internal pressure, a Gaussian process (GP) is employed to learn the nonlinear relationship between pressure and bending angle. The unscented Kalman filter (UKF) then fuses these GP-based predictions with vision-based keypoint measurements using a red, green, blue-depth (RGBD) camera to achieve robust and low-latency angle estimation for real-time control. A lightweight detection model is developed that identifies visual keypoints on the actuator’s surface with 98% precision, from which bending angles are derived. The system achieves an average frame capture time of 18.26 ms and a processing time of 13.20 ms, resulting in a total delay of 31.46 ms per frame. Quantitative evaluation demonstrates that the proposed GP–UKF fusion achieves root-mean-square error (RMSE) values of 2.32° metacarpophalangeal (MCP) and 2.64° proximal interphalangeal (PIP), improving accuracy compared to camera-only estimation (4.24°, 4.80°) and providing comparable performance to GP-only predictions (2.61°, 1.31°) while maintaining an average uncertainty of ±2.48° within the 95% confidence interval (CI). UKF effectively reduces visual jitter, correcting keypoint shifts of up to ±5 pixels and ensuring smooth angle trajectories even under noisy or partially occluded conditions. Unlike previous fusion approaches that relied solely on deterministic estimates, the proposed GP–UKF framework explicitly incorporates and propagates uncertainty from the pressure–angle model that enables reliable and interpretable real-time estimation for soft actuators under occlusion. Experimental validation on a soft actuator designed for rehabilitation demonstrates that the proposed GP–UKF fusion framework enables stable and reliable real-time angle estimation using only a camera and without requiring additional hardware sensors. The proposed system offers strong potential for adaptive, safe, and patient-tailored rehabilitation systems.
准确估计手指弯曲角度在康复中是必不可少的,因为它可以精确评估患者的关节运动和恢复进展。软机器人设备可以利用这些信息提供自适应和安全的帮助,促进有效和个性化的治疗过程。在本文中,为食指设计的软气动致动器用于辅助康复期间的手指运动。由于执行机构的弯曲行为取决于内部压力,因此采用高斯过程(GP)来学习压力与弯曲角之间的非线性关系。然后,无气味卡尔曼滤波器(UKF)将这些基于gp的预测与使用红、绿、蓝深度(RGBD)相机的基于视觉的关键点测量融合在一起,以实现鲁棒性和低延迟的实时控制角度估计。开发了一种轻量级的检测模型,该模型可以以98%的精度识别执行器表面的视觉关键点,并从中导出弯曲角度。系统的平均帧捕获时间为18.26 ms,处理时间为13.20 ms,每帧的总延迟为31.46 ms。定量评估表明,所提出的GP-UKF融合实现了根均方误差(RMSE)值为2.32°掌指骨(MCP)和2.64°近端指间(PIP),与仅相机估计(4.24°,4.80°)相比,提高了准确性,并提供了与仅gp预测(2.61°,1.31°)相当的性能,同时在95%置信区间(CI)内保持了±2.48°的平均不确定性。UKF有效地减少了视觉抖动,校正了高达±5像素的关键点偏移,即使在嘈杂或部分遮挡的条件下也能确保平滑的角度轨迹。与以往仅依赖确定性估计的融合方法不同,所提出的GP-UKF框架明确地结合并传播了压力角模型的不确定性,从而能够对闭塞情况下的软执行器进行可靠且可解释的实时估计。在一个用于康复的软执行器上进行的实验验证表明,所提出的GP-UKF融合框架仅使用一个摄像头,无需额外的硬件传感器,即可实现稳定可靠的实时角度估计。提出的系统为适应性、安全性和患者量身定制的康复系统提供了强大的潜力。

Frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) are arrays of conductive elements or apertures that exhibit frequency-dependent reflection and transmission properties. Their electromagnetic response is influenced by geometry and environmental conditions, making them attractive for wireless strain-sensing applications. However, temperature variations can produce frequency shifts similar to those caused by strain, reducing measurement accuracy. This work investigates the effects of intrinsic temperature compensation on two common FSS unit cell geometries—loop and patch—through comprehensive simulation analysis. The results show that loop-based cells offer superior thermal stability, while patch-based cells provide greater strain sensitivity, illustrating the tradeoff between thermal robustness and mechanical responsiveness. A patch-type FSS strain sensor was designed, fabricated, and characterized under varying temperature and strain. The sensor achieves a strain sensitivity of ~150 MHz per 1% ${varepsilon }_{l}$ , while temperature-induced drift is limited to ~12 MHz over a 200°C range, confirming the effectiveness of the intrinsic compensation strategy. The results provide valuable insights for optimizing FSS-based sensor design in structural health monitoring applications and balancing thermal stability with mechanical sensitivity to ensure reliable performance in thermally dynamic environments.
频率选择表面(fss)是具有频率相关反射和传输特性的导电元件或孔阵列。它们的电磁响应受几何形状和环境条件的影响,这使得它们对无线应变传感应用具有吸引力。然而,温度变化会产生与应变引起的频移相似的频移,从而降低测量精度。本研究通过全面的仿真分析,探讨了固有温度补偿对两种常见的FSS单元胞几何形状环路和贴片的影响。结果表明,基于环路的电池具有优越的热稳定性,而基于贴片的电池具有更高的应变敏感性,说明了热稳健性和机械响应性之间的权衡。设计、制作了一种贴片式FSS应变传感器,并对其在变温度、变应变条件下的性能进行了表征。该传感器每1%的应变灵敏度达到~150 MHz,而温度引起的漂移在200°C范围内被限制在~12 MHz,证实了固有补偿策略的有效性。研究结果为优化结构健康监测应用中基于fss的传感器设计,平衡热稳定性和机械灵敏度,以确保在热动态环境下的可靠性能提供了有价值的见解。

This article presents a comprehensive assessment of power quality (PQ) disturbances in the industrial power network of the Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY), a leading research facility for particle physics. The study leverages high-resolution measurements (7-days) from Fluke 435 Series II and long-term monitoring data (6-months) from Janitza UMG 512 analyzers to characterize PQ issues. Measurement data were collected from various substations and Points of Common Coupling (PCC) to evaluate harmonics, voltage fluctuations, flicker, and transient events. The high-resolution data (sampled at 500 ms) revealed voltage deviations of up to ±4%, current unbalance exceeding ±10%, and flicker spikes reaching 0.63 Pst, all attributed to nonlinear load dynamics and switching events. In total, 17 voltage swell events and 12 dips were recorded, along with 6 transient disturbances linked to PETRA’s 12-pulse converter operations. Also, voltage and current total harmonic distortion (THD) levels peaked at 3.6% and 7.5%, respectively, breaching IEEE 519 thresholds under dynamic loading. These findings highlight the necessity of coordinated PQ monitoring strategies and support the development of predictive, data-driven PQ management frameworks tailored to mission-critical industrial networks.
本文介绍了德国电子同步加速器(DESY)工业电网中电能质量(PQ)扰动的综合评估,DESY是粒子物理学的领先研究设施。该研究利用Fluke 435 Series II的高分辨率测量(7天)和Janitza UMG 512分析仪的长期监测数据(6个月)来表征PQ问题。测量数据从不同的变电站和共耦合点(PCC)收集,以评估谐波、电压波动、闪烁和瞬态事件。高分辨率数据(在500 ms采样)显示电压偏差高达±4%,电流不平衡超过±10%,闪烁峰值达到0.63 Pst,所有这些都归因于非线性负载动态和开关事件。总共记录了17次电压膨胀事件和12次电压下降,以及6次与PETRA的12脉冲转换器操作相关的瞬态干扰。电压和电流总谐波失真(THD)峰值分别为3.6%和7.5%,突破了IEEE 519动态负载阈值。这些发现强调了协调PQ监测策略的必要性,并支持针对关键任务工业网络量身定制的预测性、数据驱动的PQ管理框架的开发。

We present a straightforward and systematic approach for identifying the dominant uncertainties related to vector network analyzer measurements of chambers utilized for free-field test of wireless devices. We assess the uncertainty related to long cable runs and discuss the tradeoffs between the ease of calibration due to the choice of calibration location and the resulting measurement uncertainty. We illustrate these concepts by assessing the combined uncertainty in the power-delay profile and angle-of-arrival of reflected signals within a hybrid anechoic/reflective chamber for three common calibration locations. The framework presented here allows users to quantitatively consider the tradeoffs between uncertainty and ease-of-measurement that are uniquely important to over-the-air chamber-based measurements.

In this study, an approach to self-localization for rail vehicles using ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is evaluated. This method involves matching a current measurement window with a prerecorded map. Typical substructure and superstructure materials of railway lines are analyzed, and their effects on GPR imaging are discussed. An initial preprocessing chain is introduced, and the properties of processed GPR scans are examined. Three specific measurement properties that reduce the comparability of preprocessed measurement windows, thus hindering matching, are identified and explained. To address these challenges, a normalization-based correlation approach is proposed, which scales the data to counteract disruptive properties. Its performance is evaluated by its matching success rate over a 24 km route with four track types, including ballasted and ballastless tracks. Within a 10 km search range, successful matches were possible in 53.8% of the cases for ballastless tracks with sound absorbers and 99.4% for mixed ballastless and ballasted tracks.
研究了一种基于探地雷达的轨道车辆自定位方法。该方法包括将当前测量窗口与预先录制的地图相匹配。分析了铁路线路典型的下部结构和上部结构材料,讨论了它们对探地雷达成像的影响。介绍了一个初始预处理链,并对处理后的探地雷达扫描结果进行了分析。识别并解释了三个特定的测量属性,这些属性降低了预处理测量窗口的可比性,从而阻碍了匹配。为了解决这些挑战,提出了一种基于规范化的相关性方法,该方法对数据进行缩放以抵消破坏性特性。它的性能是通过在24公里的路线上与包括有碴轨道和无碴轨道在内的四种轨道类型的匹配成功率来评估的。在10公里的搜索范围内,带吸声器的无砟轨道匹配成功率为53.8%,无砟轨道和有砟轨道混合匹配成功率为99.4%。

Within a 10 km search range, successful matches were possible in 53.8% of the cases for ballastless tracks with sound absorbers and 99.4% for mixed ballastless and ballasted tracks.","PeriodicalId":100630,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Instrumentation and Measurement","volume":"4 ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11205510","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145778162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
