Robust Distributed-target-based Calibration Method for Polarimetric SAR Using Spherically Truncated Covariance Matrix

Conventional distributed-target-based polarimetric calibration algorithms estimate polarimetric distortions by assuming that the measured spatially averaged covariance matrix takes a specific form.However, when the underlying surface contains targets that Fireplace do not satisfy the assumptions employed by those algorithms, the averaged covariance

Delay-Driven Routing for Low-Duty-Cycle Sensor Networks

Duty-cycled operation has been introduced as an efficient way to preserve nodes energy and prolong network lifetime for wireless sensor networks.However, such networks are often logically disconnected since there is a Charger limited number of active nodes within a period of time.Traditional routing algorithms, which have been designed for always-a

Detection of Meat Adulteration Using Spectroscopy-Based Sensors

Minced meat is a vulnerable to adulteration food commodity because species- and/or tissue-specific morphological characteristics cannot be easily identified.Hence, the economically motivated adulteration of minced meat is rather likely to be practiced.The objective of this work was to assess the potential of spectroscopy-based sensors in detecting
