Multilayered periodic reflector and Bragg waveguide for integrated optics.
(1980)
With computed data, comparison and discussion of some important characteristics such as reflectivity and selectivity of a double triple, quadruple and quintuple layered periodic reflector are extensively analyzed.
Extended Observation Particle Filter with SVD Template Generation Implemented for GPU
(2018-12)
This work presents a novel template updating strategy based on singular value decomposition (SVD) together with an expansion and extension of previous work combining observations across temporally adjacent frames to implement ...
DISTRIBUTED ESTIMATION OF CENTRALITY MEASURES IN COMPLEX NETWORKS
(2016-12-16)
Knowing how important a node or an edge is, within a network, can be very valuable, for instance, in identifying those who are susceptible to malicious attacks, those who are bottlenecks to network performances, and those ...
Digital Predistortion of Pseudo-Orthogonal Wideband Waveforms for Dual-Polarimetric Phased Array Radars
(2016-05)
Many new and interesting radar operational modes and techniques are being explored to maximize the efficiency and utility of next-generation radar systems while complying with increasingly stringent operational and budgeting ...
Fuzzy correlation and regression analysis.
(2005)
The first half of the dissertation focuses on the motivation and concept of fuzzy correlation. Fuzzy data will be formulated in a mathematical way, and then we will build models of two types of fuzzy correlations, their ...
Generation asset planning under uncertainty.
(2005)
With the introduction of competition in the electric power industry, generation asset planning must change. In this changed environment, energy companies must be able to capture the extrinsic value of their asset operations ...
Analysis of Backbone Technique: a Hilbert Transform and Discrete Hilbert Transform-based Technique
(2015-12)
This dissertation focuses on understanding and improving the “backbone” technique, a Hilbert-transform based vibration signal processing technique developed by Dr. Michael Feldman started in 1994. The concept of backbone ...
Estimation of production cost variance using chronological simulation.
(1997)
Production costs are usually simulated on the basis that the availability of generation capacity is subject to random failures of system generating units. In order to estimate the variance of cost, both the random forced ...
IV-VI semiconductor structures for laser fabrication of silicon.
(1998)
This dissertation describes experiments undertaken to develop techniques required to develop IV-VI lasers grown on silicon. A review of the IV-VI materials system, diode laser structures, recent IV-VI laser results, epitaxial ...
