Applications of inertial-sensor high-inheritance instruments to DSN precision antenna pointing [PDF]
Laboratory test results of the initialization and tracking performance of an existing inertial-sensor-based instrument are given. The instrument, although not primarily designed for precision antenna pointing applications, demonstrated an on-average 10 ...

AN EMPRICAL POINT ERROR MODEL FOR TLS DERIVED POINT CLOUDS [PDF]
Abstract. The random error pattern of point clouds has significant effect on the quality of final 3D model. The magnitude and distribution of random errors should be modelled numerically. This work aims at developing such an anisotropic point error model, specifically for the terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) acquired 3D point clouds. A priori precisions

Mixed FSO/RF Based Multiple HAPs Assisted Multiuser Multiantenna Terrestrial Communication
In this work, a mixed free-space optics (FSO)/radio-frequency (RF) based multiple serial high altitude platforms (HAPs) assisted multiuser multiantenna terrestrial communication system is considered.

Experimental characterization of a 400 Gbit/s orbital angular momentum multiplexed free-space optical link over 120 m [PDF]
We experimentally demonstrate and characterize the performance of a 400-Gbit/s orbital angular momentum (OAM) multiplexed free-space optical link over 120- meters on the roof of a building.

A high-resolution pointing system for fast scanning platforms: The EBEX example
The E and B experiment (EBEX) is a balloon-borne telescope designed to measure the polarization of the cosmic microwave background with 8' resolution employing a gondola scanning with speeds of order degree per second.

Error bounds on complex floating-point multiplication [PDF]
Given floating-point arithmetic with $t$-digit base-$\beta$ significands in which all arithmetic operations are performed as if calculated to infinite precision and rounded to a nearest representable value, we prove that the product of complex values $z_0$ and $z_1$ can be computed with maximum absolute error $\abs{z_0} \abs{z_1} \frac{1}{2} \beta^{1 -

Amplitude and direction errors in kinesthetic pointing [PDF]
We investigated the accuracy with which, in the absence of vision, one can reach again a 2D target location that had been previously identified by a guided movement. A robotic arm guided the participant's hand to a target (locating motion) and away from it (homing motion). Then, the participant pointed freely toward the remembered target position.

An interferometer based phase control system [PDF]
An interferometer based phase control system for focusing and pointing the solar power satellite (SPS) power beam is discussed. The system is ground based and closed loop. One receiving antenna is required on Earth.
