Non-linear echo cancellation - a Bayesian approach
Echo cancellation literature is reviewed, then a Bayesian model is introduced and it is shown how how it can be used to model and fit nonlinear channels. An algorithm for cancellation of echo over a nonlinear channel is developed and tested. It is shown that this nonlinear algorithm converges for both linear and nonlinear channels and is superior to linear echo cancellation for canceling an echo through a nonlinear echo-path channel

Radar Technology
In this book “Radar Technology”, the chapters are divided into four main topic areas: Topic area 1: “Radar Systems” consists of chapters which treat whole radar systems, environment and target functional chain. Topic area 2: “Radar Applications” shows various applications of radar systems, including meteorological radars, ground penetrating radars and glaciology. Topic area 3: “Radar Functional Chain and Signal Processing” describes several aspects of the radar signal processing. From parameter extraction, target detection over tracking and classification technologies. Topic area 4: “Radar Subsystems and Components” consists of design technology of radar subsystem components like antenna design or waveform design

Timing Experiments with Global Navigation Satellite System Clocks
The science of timekeeping is crucial in many dierent applications around the world. One of the most signicative applications in which time and frequency metrology has an
essential role are Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). Any satellite navigation
system indeed, is based on the transmission of signals from a constellation of satellites:
processing these signals it is possible to estimate the position of a user, provided that the
time of transmission is indicated with extremely high accuracy. In fact, being the distance
measured from a time, any error in the measure of time will be directly mapped into an
error in the user position, which has to be kept below its specied limits. The positioning accuracy is widely determined by the clocks quality. It is why all the satellites
need to y very accurate atomic clocks: fundamental for their excellent stability.
An agreement between the European Community and the European Space Agency (ESA)
gave rise to a new European satellite system: Galileo. The Istituto Nazionale di Ricerca Metrologica (INRiM) is deeply involved in the Galileo
project, mainly concerning the activities related to the experimental phases, such as the
generation of an experimental reference time scale for the system and the metrological
characterization of atomic clocks employed onboard satellites. This thesis will describe the timing experiments carried out in these years of doctorate with GNSS clocks, both with space and ground clocks, within the experimental phases of the Galileo project

Advanced Geoscience Remote Sensing
Nowadays, advanced remote sensing technology plays tremendous roles to build a quantitative and comprehensive understanding of how the Earth system operates. The advanced remote sensing technology is also used widely to monitor and survey the natural disasters and man-made pollution. Besides, telecommunication is considered as precise advanced remote sensing technology tool. Indeed precise usages of remote sensing and telecommunication without a comprehensive understanding of mathematics and physics. This book has three parts (i) microwave remote sensing applications, (ii) nuclear, geophysics and telecommunication; and (iii) environment remote sensing investigations
