Saturation compensation for visible light communication with off-the-shelf detectors
Optics Express, 2021 A photodetector may get saturated if the incident optical power approaches the detector saturation threshold. In such a case, a visible light communication (VLC) system fails to recover the useful transmitted signals. We introduce a saw waveform based response characterization technique when an off-the-shelf avalanche photo-diode (APD) is deployed ...

Contemporary Engineering Sciences, 2014 Nowadays, building energy management is more important than ever. Especially, lighting energy used in the building occupies 30% of the whole consumed energy. Therefore, reducing the consumption of lighting energy could bring effective energy saving. As the system configuration, the sum of distance between the window and the light shelf reflector and ...

Electrolytic lesions within central complex neuropils of the cockroach brain affect negotiation of barriers [PDF]
, 2010 Animals must negotiate obstacles in their path in order to successfully function within natural environments. These actions require transitions from walking to other behaviors, many of which are more involved than simple reflexes.
