Generalizing Informed Sampling for Asymptotically Optimal Sampling-based Kinodynamic Planning via Markov Chain Monte Carlo

open access: yes, 2017
Asymptotically-optimal motion planners such as RRT* have been shown to incrementally approximate the shortest path between start and goal states. Once an initial solution is found, their performance can be dramatically improved by restricting subsequent ...

A Transmission Model of Analog Signals in Photonic Links

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2014
We investigate the transmission of analog photonic signals based on coupled-mode theory and small-signal analysis and provide general expressions for signal evolution along standard single-mode-fiber links.

Dynamic Range Improvement for an Analog Photonic Link Using an Integrated Electro-Optic Dual-Polarization Modulator

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2016
A novel analog photonic link with enhanced spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) based on an integrated electro-optic dual-polarization modulator is presented and demonstrated. The dual-polarization modulator, which consists of a polarization beam splitter,

Assessing the Potential for Liquid Solvents from X-ray Sources: Considerations on Bodies Orbiting Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesGalaxies, 2022
We aim to establish a rough first prospect on the potential of certain biorelevant solvents (water, ammonia, and methane) being present in liquid form inside the uppermost few meters of several modeled rocky and icy surfaces of hypothetical bodies ...

Direct electrocaloric measurement of 0.9Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.1PbTiO3 films using scanning thermal microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We show that scanning thermal microscopy can measure reversible electrocaloric (EC) effects in &lt;40 μm-thick ceramic films of the relaxor ferroelectric 0.9Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.1PbTiO3, with the substrate present.

Analysis and Design of Channel Estimation in Multicell Multiuser MIMO OFDM Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This paper investigates the uplink transmission in multicell multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The system model considers imperfect channel estimation, pilot contamination (PC), and

Polarization-Insensitive and Receiver-Sensitivity-Gain Format Conversion for PDM Signals Based on Dual-Orthogonal-Pump Four-Wave Mixing in Highly Nonlinear Fiber

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2015
All-optical format conversion plays an important role in future transparent optical networks in order to enhance reconfigurability. On the other hand, the polarization-division multiplexing (PDM) technique has been extensively studied for achieving high ...
