Advances in Computer Recognition, Image Processing and Communications, Selected Papers from CORES 2021 and IP&C 2021
As almost all human activities have been moved online due to the pandemic, novel robust and efficient approaches and further research have been in higher demand in the field of computer science and telecommunication. Therefore, this (reprint) book contains 13 high-quality papers presenting advancements in theoretical and practical aspects of computer recognition, pattern recognition, image processing and machine learning (shallow and deep), including, in particular, novel implementations of these techniques in the areas of modern telecommunications and cybersecurity
Proceedings of the Third International Mobile Satellite Conference (IMSC 1993)
Satellite-based mobile communications systems provide voice and data communications to users over a vast geographic area. The users may communicate via mobile or hand-held terminals, which may also provide access to terrestrial cellular communications services. While the first and second International Mobile Satellite Conferences (IMSC) mostly concentrated on technical advances, this Third IMSC also focuses on the increasing worldwide commercial activities in Mobile Satellite Services. Because of the large service areas provided by such systems, it is important to consider political and regulatory issues in addition to technical and user requirements issues. Topics covered include: the direct broadcast of audio programming from satellites; spacecraft technology; regulatory and policy considerations; advanced system concepts and analysis; propagation; and user requirements and applications
Software and hardware implementation techniques for digital communications-related algorithms
There are essentially three areas addressed in the body of this thesis. (a) The first is a theoretical investigation into the design and development of a practically realizable
implementation of a maximum-likelihood detection process to deal with digital data transmission over
HF radio links. These links exhibit multipath properties with delay spreads that can easily extend over 12
to 15 milliseconds. The project was sponsored by the Ministry of Defence through the auspices of the Science
and Engineering Research Council. The primary objective was to transmit voice band data at a minimum
rate of 2.4 kb/s continuously for long periods of time during the day or night. Computer simulation
models of HF propagation channels were created to simulate atmospheric and multipath effects of transmission
from London to Washington DC, Ankara, and as far as Melbourne, Australia. Investigations into
HF channel estimation are not the subject of this thesis. The detection process assumed accurate knowledge
of the channel. [Continues.
Abstracts on Radio Direction Finding (1899 - 1995)
The files on this record represent the various databases that originally composed the CD-ROM issue of "Abstracts on Radio Direction Finding" database, which is now part of the Dudley Knox Library's Abstracts and Selected Full Text Documents on Radio Direction Finding (1899 - 1995) Collection. (See Calhoun record https://calhoun.nps.edu/handle/10945/57364 for further information on this collection and the bibliography).
Due to issues of technological obsolescence preventing current and future audiences from accessing the bibliography, DKL exported and converted into the three files on this record the various databases contained in the CD-ROM.
