Automatic Extraction of High-Voltage Bundle Subconductors Using Airborne LiDAR Data
Overhead high-voltage conductors are the chief components of power lines and their safety has a strong influence on social and daily life. In the recent decade, the airborne laser scanning (ALS) technique has been widely used to capture the three ...

Modelling natural electromagnetic interference in man-made conductors for space weather applications [PDF]
Power transmission lines above the ground, cables and pipelines in the ground and under the sea, and in general all man-made long grounded conductors are exposed to the variations of the natural electromagnetic field.

Full-Asynchronous Gigabit-Symmetric DPSK Downstream and OOK Upstream OCDMA-PON with Source-Free ONUs Employing All-Optical Self-Clocked Time Gate [PDF]
We propose an asynchronous gigabit-symmetric optical code division multiplexing access passive optical network (OCDMA-PON) in which optical network units (ONUs) are source-free. In the experiment, we demonstrate a duplex OCDMA system with a 50 km 10 Gbit/

Multi-span transmission using phase and amplitude regeneration in PPLN-based PSA.
We demonstrated multi-span transmission using a periodically poled LiNbO(3) (PPLN) based phase sensitive amplifier (PSA). An in-line PSA with a carrier recovery and phase locking system is implemented as a repeater amplifier in a recirculating loop.

Fast Structuring of Radio Networks for Multi-Message Communications [PDF]
We introduce collision free layerings as a powerful way to structure radio networks. These layerings can replace hard-to-compute BFS-trees in many contexts while having an efficient randomized distributed construction. We demonstrate their versatility by
