Analysis of a queuing system of a single capacity with phase-type distributions and queue updating

Discrete and Continuous Models and Applied Computational Science
In this paper, we study a queuing system with a single-capacity storage device and queue updating. An update is understood as the following mechanism: an application that enters the system and finds another application in the drive destroys it, taking ...

Multi-Phase-Center Sidelobe Suppression Method for Circular GBSAR Based on Sparse Spectrum

IEEE Access, 2020
Circular ground-based synthetic aperture radar (GBSAR) is a new type of GBSAR with three-dimensional (3D) imaging capability. Its relatively low bandwidth-to-frequency ratio and donut shaped spectrum cause high sidelobes problem, which seriously affects ...
