Theoretical analysis of and bias correction for planar and cylindrical polarimetric phased array weather Radar
(2014-08-15)
Planar or Cylindrical Phased Arrays are two candidate antennas for the future polarimetric weather radar. These two candidate antennas have distinctly different attributes when used to make quantitative measurements of the ...
Video CODEC with adaptive frame rate control for intelligent transportation system applications
(2014-05)
Video cameras are one of the important types of devices in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The camera images are practical, widely deployable and beneficial for traffic management and congestion control. The ...
Analysis and Design of Reflectarray Antennas for Radar System Applications
(2014)
In recent years reflectarray has received more and more attention and it has been considered as a suitable candidate to replace the traditional reflectors due to its
high-gain, low profile and low cost features. Reflectarray ...
IMAGE AND VIDEO ENHANCEMENT USING SPARSE CODING, BELIEF PROPAGATION AND MATRIX COMPLETION
(2014-12-01)
Super resolution as an exciting application in image processing was studied widely
in the literature. This dissertation presents new approaches to video super resolution,
based on sparse coding and belief propagation. ...
REVEALING ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT ELECTRICITY MARKET UNDERLYING POWER SYSTEM USING POWER SYSTEM PRINCIPLES AND PUBLISHED MARKET RESULTS
(2014)
In this dissertation we provide a novel estimation framework designed and structured on duality theory for estimation of some key parameters in electricity markets. Specifically, the framework uses financial transmission ...
WIND TURBINE CLUTTER IN WEATHER RADAR: CHARACTERIZATION AND MITIGATION
(2014-05)
With the rapid growth of the wind power industry, many commercial utility-scale wind turbines have been built across the country. These extremely large man-made structures are reported to have negative impact on nearby ...
Carbon Nanotube Enhanced Lithium Ion Composite Cathodes
(2014-08-13)
Batteries are sought that can deliver high energy density and high power density over thousands of cycles, with minimum environmental impact and cost. Invariably no one material can achieve all of these requirements. Lithium ...
