Quinquenary codes have been widely used in radar and communication areas, but the design of Quinquenary codes with good merit factor is a nonlinear multivariable optimization problem, which is usually difficult to tackle. To get the solution of above problem many global optimization algorithms like genetic algorithm, simulated annealing, and tunneling algorithm were reported in the literature. ...

A wavelet transform is introduced as a means of detecting the characteristic scale or period T of a radar pulse sequence in an incoming stream of pulses. A particular choice of mother wavelet contains a fixed number, M , of cycles of a complex exponential, which provides a resolution of 1=M times T . The transform operates on interleaved pulse sequences and, by thresholding, determines T for ea...

A method of entangled states preparation of two-qubit systems is proposed. The method combines the techniques of coherent control by manipulation of the relative phase between the pulses and adiabatic control by using time-delayed pulse sequences. Simple analytic expressions are given for the wave function of the system as a function of phase and pulse area which show that complete control of e...

An all-diode-pumped, multistage Nd:YAG amplifier is investigated as a means of extending the duration of high-power, burst-mode laser pulse sequences to an unprecedented 30 ms or more. The laser generates 120 mJ per pulse at 1064.3 nm with a repetition rate of 10 kHz, which is sufficient for a wide range of planar laser diagnostics based on fluorescence, Raman scattering, and Rayleigh scatterin...

Some new symmetry theorems are presented which simplify the task of designing multiple-pulse radio-frequency pulse sequences in magic-angle-spinning solid-state NMR. The symmetry theorems apply to sequences denoted R N, which n consists of N repetitions of a pulse sequence element R, alternating in phase between the values "pnrN. Each R element ideally rotates the spins by an angle p about the ...

We present a scalable scheme to design optimized soft pulses and pulse sequences for coherent control of interacting quantum many-body systems. The scheme is based on the cluster expansion and the time-dependent perturbation theory implemented numerically. This approach offers a dramatic advantage in numerical efficiency, and it is also more convenient than the commonly used Magnus expansion, e...

We demonstrate for what we believe to be the first time the generation of sequences of ultrafast optical pulses by phase modulation in a direct space-to-time pulse shaper. The pulse shaper is based on the combination of a reflective arrayed waveguide grating multiplexer and an external reflector. The spatial modulation of the phase was obtained by fabricating corrugated patterns on the external...

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy provides a valuable tool by which one can control a spin ensemble. Control is achieved by using radio-frequency (RF) pulses. Pulse sequence design has been an active research area for many years. Recently, optimal control theory has been successfully applied to the design of pulse sequences, so as to minimize their total duration and improve their e...
