A zero-error operational video data compression system
A data compression system has been operating since February 1972, using ATS spin-scan cloud cover data. With the launch of ITOS 3 in October 1972, this data compression system has become the only source of near-realtime very high resolution radiometer image data at the data processing facility. The VHRR image data are compressed and transmitted over a 50 kilobit per second wideband ground link. The goal of the data compression experiment was to send data quantized to six bits at twice the rate possible when no compression is used, while maintaining zero error between the transmitted and reconstructed data. All objectives of the data compression experiment were met, and thus a capability of doubling the data throughput of the system has been achieved
Dynamic mode decomposition with control
We develop a new method which extends Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) to
incorporate the effect of control to extract low-order models from
high-dimensional, complex systems. DMD finds spatial-temporal coherent modes,
connects local-linear analysis to nonlinear operator theory, and provides an
equation-free architecture which is compatible with compressive sensing. In
actuated systems, DMD is incapable of producing an input-output model;
moreover, the dynamics and the modes will be corrupted by external forcing. Our
new method, Dynamic Mode Decomposition with control (DMDc), capitalizes on all
of the advantages of DMD and provides the additional innovation of being able
to disambiguate between the underlying dynamics and the effects of actuation,
resulting in accurate input-output models. The method is data-driven in that it
does not require knowledge of the underlying governing equations, only
snapshots of state and actuation data from historical, experimental, or
black-box simulations. We demonstrate the method on high-dimensional dynamical
systems, including a model with relevance to the analysis of infectious disease
data with mass vaccination (actuation).Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
