Chemiluminescent detection of explosives, narcotics, and other chemical substances

ActiveUS6984524B2Rapidly and accurately discriminates among different substancesAccurate and reliable processChemical analysis using combustionMaterial heat developmentCollection systemDesorption
A compact scanning apparatus has an infrared laser adapted to emit light. The light is delivered as a beam by an optical system to illuminate an interrogation area on the surface of an object being scanned. Such illumination has sufficient intensity and duration to cause selective desorption of molecules of the contraband substance, which are present on the surface, without substantially damaging the surface. A collection system collects at least a portion of the desorbed molecules. At least a portion of the collected molecules is thermally decomposed to form NO2 and transferred to a reaction cell containing an aqueous, alkaline, luminol-containing solution. The NO2 reacts with the luminol to produce light by chemiluminescence. A light detector registers the presence of this light as indicative of the detection of the contraband substance, and activates a signaling device to provide an audible or visible alarm. The apparatus rapidly detects the presence of a wide variety of contraband substances in an accurate, reliable manner. It provides for automated screening, with the result that vagaries of human performance are virtually eliminated. False alarms are reduced and detection efficacy is increased. A traceable residue of the detected contraband is left on the article for use in forensic analysis.

A compact scanning apparatus has an infrared laser adapted to emit light. The light is delivered as a beam by an optical system to illuminate an interrogation area on the surface of an object being scanned to cause selective desorption of molecules of the contraband substance, which are present on the surface, without substantially damaging the surface. A collection system collects at least a portion of the desorbed molecules. At least a portion of the collected molecules is thermally decomposed to form NO2 and transferred to a reaction cell containing an aqueous, alkaline, luminol-containing solution. The NO2 reacts with the luminol to produce light by chemiluminescence. A light detector registers the presence of this light to carry out a rapid screening of the object for the possible presence of the contraband substance. The apparatus further includes a supplemental detector such as a GC / IMS detector that is activated in response to the detection of the chemiluminescent light. The supplemental detector provides confirmation of the detection of contraband substance and activates a signaling device to provide an audible or visible alarm. The rapid pre-screening permits the apparatus to identify suspicious items, while the supplemental detection system can be optimized for more intense, but time-consuming scrutiny of just the suspicious items. Both effective detection and high throughput are thereby achieved in an accurate, reliable manner.

Data processing apparatus and method

A receiver for detecting and recovering data from Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) symbols. The OFDM symbols include within a repeating time frame a signalling OFDM symbol and one or more data bearing OFDM symbols, the signalling OFDM symbol including a pre-amble guard interval and a post-amble guard interval, the pre-amble and the post-amble guard intervals being formed by copying samples from a useful part of the signalling OFDM symbol in the time domain. The receiver includes a signalling and guard detector, which includes a correlator comprising a first branch which includes a first moving averaging filter, which is arranged to form pre-amble average correlated samples by averaging a value of a plurality of pre-amble correlated samples within a moving window, the plurality of samples averaged within the moving window corresponding to a temporal length of the post-amble (Tb), a second branch which includes a second moving averaging filter, which is arranged to form post-amble average correlated samples by averaging a value of a plurality of post-amble correlated samples within a moving window, the plurality of samples averaged within the moving window corresponding to a temporal length of the pre-amble (Tc), a combiner, which is arranged to combine the averaged pre-amble correlated samples and the averaged post-amble correlated samples to form output correlation samples. A post processing detector can detect the signalling OFDM symbol and moreover a synchronisation point derived from a centre of the signalling OFDM symbol with improved accuracy. The receiver finds application, for example, with DVB-T2 in detecting the P1 symbol.

Traffic jam auxiliary control method and system

The invention discloses a traffic jam auxiliary control method, and the method comprises the steps: carrying out lateral control and longitudinal control of a vehicle when the function of a traffic jam auxiliary system is activated; during transverse control, when a lane line exists, controlling a vehicle to run in the middle according to the lane line detected by a vehicle sensor, and when no lane line exists or the lane line is not clear, controlling the vehicle to transversely deviate along with a front vehicle; during longitudinal control, calculating the target vehicle speed of the vehicle according to front vehicle data, carrying out coupling speed limiting control on the target vehicle speed in combination with the road curvature information, the current steering wheel angle and thetarget steering wheel angle obtained through transverse control, controlling the target vehicle speed, and obtaining an expected vehicle acceleration. The vehicle is automatically controlled to carryout acceleration, deceleration, steering and other operations according to environmental perception, transverse and longitudinal coupling control is carried out on the vehicle, the safety and stability of the vehicle during high vehicle speed or curve control are guaranteed, the vehicle can still run along with a front vehicle when a lane line is not clear, and TJA function application scenes aregreatly increased.
