Article Abstract

A millimeter-wave noise generation scheme is proposed in this paper. The scheme is based on a monolithically integrated dual-mode chaotic laser, which consists of a distributed Bragg feedback (DFB) section, a phase section, and an optical amplification section. The output spectrum state of the dual-mode laser can be controlled by adjusting the injection current in the three regions. The monolithically integrated dual-mode chaotic laser has stable chaotic output and can be used as a light source for integrated millimeter-wave noise source. As a feasibility demonstration, a dual-mode chaotic laser with a mode interval of 2.05 nm was generated in the experiment, the optical mixing on a photodetector produced millimeter-wave noise with a center frequency of 259 GHz and a bandwidth of 44 GHz (237-281 GHz), achieving a typical value of excess noise ratio of 47 dB. It has the advantages of high noise source utilization, small noise source volume, and high integration.

This paper proposes a novel heart rate detection scheme to address key challenges in millimeter-wave radar-based vital sign monitoring, including weak signals, various types of interference, and the demand for high-precision and super-resolution frequency estimation under practical computational constraints. First, we propose a multi-dimensional coherent accumulation (MDCA) method to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by fully utilizing both spatial information from multiple receiving channels and temporal information from adjacent range bins. Additionally, we are the first to apply the fast iterative interpolated beamforming (FIIB) algorithm to radar-based heart rate detection, enabling super-resolution frequency estimation with low computational complexity.

We present the design methodology and characterization of a superconducting magnetic bearing (SMB) system for the polarization modulator in the small aperture telescope-low-frequency (SAT-LF), one of the SATs of the Simons Observatory (SO) that is sensitive at 30/40 GHz. SO is a cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization experiment, with SATs targeting the search for primordial parity-odd polarization anisotropies at degree scales. Each SAT uses a cryogenic, rotating half-wave plate (HWP) as a polarization modulator to reduce atmospheric 1/f noise and instrumental systematics.

Optoelectronic oscillators (OEOs) can realize ultra-low-noise radio frequency (RF) oscillations in the microwave or millimeter wave range. Most frequency-tunable OEOs (FTOEOs) use an electro-optic phase modulator, a narrow-band optical filter, and a frequency-tunable laser source to tune the RF oscillation frequency. This paper presents an analytical approach to signal and noise analysis of such FTOEOs, which is named here the phase transfer approach (PTA).

With the growing demand for health monitoring, non-contact vital signs monitoring technology has garnered widespread attention. While traditional health monitoring methods are accurate, they have limitations in terms of non-contact and non-invasive capabilities. This paper proposes a non-contact vital signs monitoring method based on frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) millimeter-wave radar, named MRVS, to enhance both convenience and accuracy.
