Indoor Real-time localization system design for Internet of Things applications

Pooneh Mohaghegh

With the prevalence of smartphones, watches, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices, the ability to track their positions is becoming increasingly important. For many indoor positioning systems (IPSs), providing an uninterrupted flow of information in real-t ...

Microresonator Dissipative Kerr Solitons Synchronized to an Optoelectronic Oscillator

Tobias Kippenberg, Wenle Weng, Jijun He

Using phase-modulation-induced potential gradient whose period is synchronized to a microwave opto-electronic oscillator, dissipative Kerr solitons generated in a crystalline optical microresonator are trapped by the soliton tweezing effect, exhibiting a s ...

Multiobjective Vector Modulation for Improved Control of NPC-Based Multi-Source Inverters in Hybrid Traction Systems

Andrea Cervone

The concept of a multi-source inverter (MSI) based on NPC topology was recently introduced for hybrid-electric powertrains to connect several dc sources to the traction load in a single conversion stage without magnetics. This work proposes a new modulatio ...

Thermal-hydraulic analysis of alternative cable-in-conduit conductors for the European DEMO hybrid central solenoid

Kamil Sedlák, Nikolay Bykovskiy, Roberto Guarino

A hybrid design of the Central Solenoid is under study within the conceptual design phase of the European DEMO fusion reactor. It is based on HTS conductors in the innermost high-field layers, and Nb3Sn and NbTi conductors for field values below 15 T. Sinc ...

The DEMO magnet system - Status and future challenges

Rainer Wesche, Pierluigi Bruzzone, Davide Uglietti, Kamil Sedlák, Roberto Guarino, Mithlesh Kumar, Vincenzo D'Auria, Ortensia Dicuonzo, Chiara Frittitta, Federica Demattè

We present the pre-concept design of the European DEMO Magnet System, which has successfully passed the DEMO plant-level gate review in 2020. The main design input parameters originate from the so-called DEMO 2018 baseline, which was produced using the PRO ...

Runaway dynamics in tokamak disruptions with current relaxation

The safe operation of tokamak reactors requires a reliable modelling capability of disruptions, and in particular the spatio-temporal dynamics of associated runaway electron currents. In a disruption, instabilities can break up magnetic surfaces into chaot ...

Pedestrian Stop and Go Forecasting with Hybrid Feature Fusion

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Taylor Ferdinand Mordan, Dongxu Guo

Forecasting pedestrians' future motions is essential for autonomous driving systems to safely navigate in urban areas. However, existing prediction algorithms often overly rely on past observed trajectories and tend to fail around abrupt dynamic changes, s ...
