The cycle time can be reduced drastically and hence the production efficiency can be increased significantly but harmonic distortion of one sweep will leak into the record of the other sweep. In this paper, we propose an anti-correlation method for removing harmonic distortion in vibroseis data. This method is based on decomposition of the ground force signal into fundamental and harmonic components. Then the corresponding anti-correlation operator can be computed to estimate the energy of each harmonic after correlating the vibroseis data with the corresponding harmonic component. Finally, the vibroseis harmonic noise to be removed can be obtained by subtracting the extracted harmonic noise from the traces of the previous group＇s sweep. The advantage of the proposed method is that it can process both uncorrelated and correlated vibroseis seismic data. Moreover, the algorithm is simple, stable, and computationally fast. Especially, the significant contribution of this method is a considerable reduction in the harmonic without any alteration of the desired signals. The method was tested on both synthetic and field data sets to validate the good harmonic noise suppression results.展开更多

The merit of the calibration algorithm is that the main errors information, which include the capacitor mismatches and residue amplifier distortion, are extracted integrally. A modified 1st pipelined stage is adopted to solve the signal overflow caused by the Pseudo-random Noise (PN) sequences. Behavioral simulation results verify the effectiveness of the algorithm. It improves the Signal-to-Noise-plus-Distortion Ratio (SNDR) and Spurious-Free-Dynamic-Range (SFDR) of the pipelined ADC from 41.8 dB to 78.3 dB and 55.6 dB to 98.6 dB, respectively, which is comparable to the prior arts.展开更多

The Harmonic HD 1000i Shears, designed to deliver a precise amount of thermal energy during tissue transection and vessel sealing, has been utilized in many specialties. This study aimed to confirm real-world safety and performance of the Harmonic device in two thoracoscopic procedures: lobectomy and segmentectomy. Methods: The primary endpoint of this retrospective, observational, single-arm study was rate of post-operative blood transfusions related to study device or procedure. Secondary endpoints included occurrence of intra- and post-operative adverse events (AEs) or complications device- or procedure-related, and rate of required additional hemostatic measures. Adults included those who underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy or segmentectomy where HD 1000i shears were used while excluding those where additional advanced energy devices were used. The study was conducted at Severance Hospital, Yonsei University Health System, South Korea from May 1, 2018, to November 30, 2020. Results: Subjects included n = 766 lobectomies (mean age 63.79, 52% male) and n = 215 segmentectomies (mean age 63.19, 54% male). Estimated blood loss was 50 mL (0 min, 3200 max) and 20 mL (0 min, 800 max), intraoperative transfusion rate 0.001% and 0%, intraoperative complication/AE rate 1% and 2%, and post-operative complication/AE rate 9% and 4% in the lobectomy and segmentectomy groups, respectively. Median operative times were 108 min. (35 min, 395 max) for lobectomies and 105 min. (32 min, 574 max) for segmentectomies. Conclusion: Given the low rate of blood loss and intra- and post-operative complication/AE rates, HD 1000i can be used confidently for thoracoscopic pulmonary resection in adults.展开更多
