  • Patent number: 11748919
    Abstract: A method of image reconstruction for a cross-modal communication system is disclosed. The method reconstructs a damaged, lost, or delayed image signal during transmission by using complete haptic signals received by a receiving end in the cross-modal communication system, and further constructs a cross-modal interaction network with reference to an attention mechanism, thus solving the limitation of the conventional generation model that it can only be trained on paired samples. An image reconstruction device for a cross-modal communication system is also disclosed. By fully utilizing semantic correlation between different-modality data and realizing cross-modal generation from haptic signals to image signals for unpaired data, the present invention overcomes the difficulty in acquiring haptic-image signal pairs in the practical cross-modal communication system, and significantly improves the quality and class accuracy of generated image signals.

    Abstract: A method for suppressing coherent and polarization-induced fading by simultaneous monitoring of loss and vibration is provided. By using merely common single-mode sensing fibers, the polarization diversity-based measurement method solves the conflict between ?-OTDR and COTDR in terms of polarization state. In addition, the method not only achieves a better coherent fading noise suppression effect but also enhances the capability of recognizing small loss events in the monitoring of loss parameters. Meanwhile, the method can suppress the influence of coherent fading on the phase demodulation of ?-OTDR and reconstruct a vibration signal with high fidelity in the monitoring of perturbation parameters, which can effectively reduce the error rate of external perturbation warning.
