The CKFPUA (conventional Kalman filter phase unwrapping algorithm) can obtain reliable results in the flat terrain areas, but it caused error transmission not making the accurate inversion of surface deformation information in the steep terrain. Considering this situation, so it needs to introduce topographic information for guiding phase unwrapping. Here the 90 m resolution DEM data have been used and it is obtained by SRTM (shuttle radar topography mission) measured jointly by NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) and NIMA (National Imaging Mapping Agency) of U.S. Department of Defense. This paper presents a SD-KFPUA (Kalman filter phase unwrapping algorithm) based on SRTM DEM. With SRTM DEM directing InSAR image to implement phase unwrapping, the speed and accuracy are improved. By analyzing with the conventional Kalman filter phase unwrapping algorithms, it is shown that the proposed method can achieve good results in particular to improve unwrapping accuracy in the low coherence region.展开更多

The three typical architectures including the broadcast-and-select based Optical Shared Memory Supercomputer Interconnect System (OSMOSIS) switch, the defection routing based Data Vortex switch and the arrayed waveguide grating based Low-latency Interconnect Optical Network Switch (LIONS) switch are discussed in detail. In particular, we investigate the various Ioopback buffering technologies in LIONS and present a proof of principle testbed demonstration showing feasibility of LIONS architecture. Moreover, the performance of LIONS, Data Vortex and OSMOSIS with traditional state-of-the-art electrical switching network based on the Flattened-ButterFly (FBF) architecture in terms of throughput and latency are compared. The sinmlation based perfortmnce study shows that the latency of LIONS is almost independent of the number of input ports and does not saturate even at very high input load.展开更多
