Abstract

By accurately predicting industrial aging processes (IAP), such as the slow deactivation of a catalyst in a chemical plant, it is possible to schedule maintenance events further in advance, thereby ensuring a cost-efficient and reliable operation of the plant. So far, these degradation processes were usually described by mechanistic models or simple empirical prediction models. In order to accurately predict IAP, data-driven models are proposed, comparing some traditional stateless models (linear and kernel ridge regression, as well as feed-forward neural networks) to more complex stateful recurrent neural networks (echo state networks and long short-term memory networks). Additionally, variations of the stateful models are discussed. In particular, stateful models using mechanistical pre-knowledge about the degradation dynamics (hybrid models). Stateful models and their variations may be more suitable for generating near perfect predictions when they are trained on a large enough dataset, while hybrid models may be more suitable for generalizing better given smaller datasets with changing conditions.

Abstract

An embodiment of the invention relates to a method for carrying out a time-resolved interferometric measurement comprising the steps of generating at least two coherent waves, overlapping said at least two coherent waves and producing an interference pattern, measuring the interference pattern for a given exposure time, thereby forming measured interference values, and analyzing the measured interference values and extracting amplitude and/or phase information from the measured interference values. In at least one time segment, hereinafter referred to as disturbed time segment, of the expo-sure time, the interference pattern is intentionally disturbed or destroyed such that the corresponding measured interference values describe a disturbed or destroyed interference pattern. In at least one other time segment, hereinafter referred to as undisturbed time segment, of the exposure time, the interference pattern is undisturbed or at least less disturbed compared to the disturbed time segment such that the corresponding measured interference values describe an undisturbed or less disturbed interference pattern. The measured interference values that were measured during the entire given exposure time, are filtered, wherein those interference values that were measured during the at least one disturbed time segment, are reduced, suppressed or discarded. The filtered interference values are analyzed and the amplitude and/or phase information is extracted from the filtered interference values.

Abstract

An apparatus and a method for determining an antenna characteristic of an antenna under test in free space is disclosed. Measurement results of a transmitted power of a measurement signal transmitted between the reference antenna and an antenna under test are detected, wherein detecting takes place in the frequency domain. The detected measurement results are transformed into the time domain and a time-domain filter is applied to the measurement results converted into the time domain. A filter width of the time-domain filter is determined in dependence on a spatial distance between the reference antenna and the antenna under test. Measurement result portions that result due to a multipath propagation of the measurement signal between the reference antenna and the antenna under test are reduced or removed.
