Calibration Transfer Methodology for Cloud Radars Based on Ice Cloud Observations

Alexis Berne, Anne-Claire Marie Billault--Roux

This article presents a calibration transfer methodology that can be used between radars of the same or dif-ferent frequency bands. This method enables the absolute calibration of a cloud radar by transferring it from another collocated instrument with kno ...

Omnidirectional bats, point-to-plane distances, and the price of uniqueness

Martin Vetterli, Ivan Dokmanic, Miranda Krekovic

We study simultaneous localization and mapping with a device that uses reflections to measure its distance from walls. Such a device can be realized acoustically with a synchronized collocated source and receiver; it behaves like a bat with no capacity for ...

Automatic Calibration of Ultra Wide Band Tracking Systems Using A Mobile Robot: A Person Localization Case-study

Alcherio Martinoli, Zeynab Talebpour

Ultra Wide Band (UWB) is an emerging technology in the field of indoor localization, mainly due to its high performances in indoor scenarios and relatively easy deployment. However, in complex indoor environments, its positioning accuracy may drastically d ...

Development of TORCH readout electronics for customised MCPs

Christoph Frei

The TORCH detector is being developed for low-momentum particle identification, combining time-of-flight and Cherenkov techniques to achieve charged particle pi/K/p separation up to 10 GeV/c over a flight distance of 10m. This requires a timing resolution ...

The TORCH time-of-flight detector

Christoph Frei

The TORCH time-of-flight detector is being developed to provide particle identification between 2 and 10 GeV/c momentum over a flight distance of 10 m. TORCH is designed for large-area coverage, up to 30 m(2), and has a DIRC-like construction. The goal is ...

GNSS-based Orbital Filter for Earth Moon Transfer Orbits

Pierre-André Farine, Cyril Botteron, Vincenzo Capuano

Numerous applications, not only Earth-based, but also space-based, have strengthened the interest of the international scientific community in using Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs) as navigation systems for space missions that require good accu ...

Moving sounds within the peripersonal space modulate the motor system

Andrea Serino, Michela Bassolino, Elisa Canzoneri

Interactions between ourselves and the external world are mediated by a multisensory representation of the space surrounding the body, i.e. the peripersonal space (PPS). In particular, a special interplay is observed among tactile stimuli delivered on a bo ...

Observability analysis of 3D AUV trimming trajectories in the presence of ocean currents using range and depth measurements

We analyze the observability properties of the kinematic model of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) moving in 3D, under the influence of ocean currents, using range and depth measurements. The results obtained shed light into the types of trajectories ...

Quantifying and Protecting Location Privacy

Reza Shokri

Recent developments in information and communication technologies have been profound and life-changing. Most people are now equipped with smart phones with high computation power and communication capabilities. These devices can efficiently run multiple so ...

Single-photon image sensors in CMOS : picosecond resolution for three-dimensional imaging

Cristiano Niclass

Among advanced electronic designs, vision systems are perhaps those that have undergone the most dramatic technological revolutions of the last decades. Recently, a new family of vision systems has emerged aimed at three-dimensional (3D) imaging. Many appl ...

Local work function changes determined by field emission resonances: NaCl/Ag(100)

Wolf-Dieter Schneider, François Patthey, Marina Pivetta

Electrons trapped in field emission resonances (FERs) in front of a Ag(100) surface covered with ultrathin NaCl islands are probed by scanning tunneling spectroscopy. The eigenstates in the potential well formed between the tip and the sample are calculate ...

Validation of the performance of a new bidirectional video-goniophotometer

Marilyne Andersen

An accurate knowledge of the directional optical properties of advanced fenestration materials is necessary for them to be adequately integrated in buildings. These properties are expressed by the Bidirectional Transmission (or Reflection) Distribution Fun ...
