Abstract: A method and a system are for non-contact determination of a detection boundary. A Wi-Fi receiving device simultaneously receives data packets by using any two antennas, and measures channel state information; conjugate multiplication is performed on the CSI measured at a moment corresponding to reception of the two antennas, to obtain a new CSI signal stream; a time window with the length M is selected from the new CSI signal stream, and M CSI samples in the time window are collected, to form a conjugate set; the mean of the conjugate set is subtracted from all the samples in the conjugate set, to obtain a zero-mean conjugate set; N zero-mean conjugate sets are obtained for CSI on N sub-carriers simultaneously transmitted; and probability distribution fitting is performed on the absolute values of all elements in the N zero-mean conjugate sets, to calculate a boundary detection feature.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for determining a Doppler frequency shift of a wireless signal directly reflected by a moving object. An example method includes eliminating a random phase shift caused by non-synchronization between a wireless transmitting device and a wireless receiving device by using conjugate multiplication of the channel state information (CSI) on two antennas, thereby obtaining the complete Doppler frequency shift information from the phase information of the channel state information. The example method eliminates the effect on the Doppler frequency shift caused by frequency information of static paths in a manner of removing the mean, thereby obtaining an accurate frequency estimation of the moving object. A Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) algorithm may be used to estimate a frequency spectrum according to practical sampling intervals to avoid an effect on the frequency estimation accuracy caused by uneven sampling rate in a practical wireless transceiving system.

Abstract: This disclosure describes a method for regenerating a semi-regenerated reforming catalyst. The method comprises adjusting the reaction temperature to 250-480° C., introducing a sulfur-containing naphtha into the reforming reactor, or stopping introducing a feedstock into the reforming reactor, and introducing a sulfur-containing hydrogen into a recycle gas, until the sulfur content in the catalyst is 0.32-0.8 mass %, then the catalyst is subject to coke-burning, oxychlorination and reduction. Alternatively, the method first subjects the spent catalyst to coke-burning followed by introducing sulfate ions thereinto; and then performing oxychlorination and reduction. Disclosed is still another method for regenerating a platinum-rhenium reforming catalyst, which comprises coke-burning the spent catalyst; introducing sulfur and chlorine in the catalyst by impregnation; and then drying, calcinating and reducing.
