High Resolution Sub-Doppler Experiments on Benzene
It is shown that sub-Doppler spectroscopy enables one to resolve
individual rotational states in the S^ manifold of polyatomic molecules.
This i s an essential to the understanding of the primary
photophysics within the molecule. Spectra of benzene are found to undergo
substantial changes as the vibrational energy i s raised within S^.
Due to the increased density of vibrational states, Coriolis coupling,
which is already seen at low energies, can lead to effective IVR above
3000 cm""1 excess energy. This onset of IVR may be responsible for the
onset of "Channel Three" in benzene and probably produces gross changes
in the photophysical behavior of any polyatomic molecule
Spectrum Sharing between Cooperative Relay and Ad-hoc Networks: Dynamic Transmissions under Computation and Signaling Limitations
This paper studies a spectrum sharing scenario between a cooperative relay
network (CRN) and a nearby ad-hoc network. In particular, we consider a dynamic
spectrum access and resource allocation problem of the CRN. Based on sensing
and predicting the ad-hoc transmission behaviors, the ergodic traffic collision
time between the CRN and ad-hoc network is minimized subject to an ergodic
uplink throughput requirement for the CRN. We focus on real-time implementation
of spectrum sharing policy under practical computation and signaling
limitations. In our spectrum sharing policy, most computation tasks are
accomplished off-line. Hence, little real-time calculation is required which
fits the requirement of practical applications. Moreover, the signaling
procedure and computation process are designed carefully to reduce the time
delay between spectrum sensing and data transmission, which is crucial for
enhancing the accuracy of traffic prediction and improving the performance of
interference mitigation. The benefits of spectrum sensing and cooperative relay
techniques are demonstrated by our numerical experiments.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, to appear in IEEE International Conference on

AVIRIS onboard data handling and control
The timing and flow of detector and ancillary data for the Airborne Visible/Infrared imaging spectrometer (AVIRIS) are controlled within the instrument by its digital electronics assembly. In addition to providing detector and signal chain timing, the digital electronics receives, formats, and rate-buffers digitized science data; collects and formats ancillary (calibration and engineering) data; and merges both into a single tape record. Overall AVIRIS data handling is effected by a combination of dedicated digital electronics to control instrument timing, image data flow, and data rate buffering and a microcomputer programmed to handle real-time control of instrument mechanisms and the coordinated preparation of ancillary data
