Extraction of Liana Stems Using Geometric Features from Terrestrial Laser Scanning Point Clouds

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Lianas are self-supporting systems that are increasing their dominance in tropical forests due to climate change. As lianas increase tree mortality and reduce tree growth, one key challenge in ecological remote sensing is the separation of a liana and ...

Computational Method for Wavefront Sensing Based on Transport-of-Intensity Equation

open access: yesPhotonics, 2021
Recently the transport-of-intensity equation as a phase imaging method turned out as an effective microscopy method that does not require the use of high-resolution optical systems and a priori information about the object.

Effective radius of cloud droplets by ground‐based remote sensing: Relationship to aerosol [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2003
Enhancement of cloud droplet number concentration by anthropogenic aerosols has previously been demonstrated by in‐situ measurements, but there remains large uncertainty in the resultant enhancement of cloud optical depth and reflectivity. Detection of this effect is made difficult by the large inherent variability in cloud liquid water path (LWP); the

Barrier Coverage Mechanism Using Adaptive Sensing Range for Renewable WSNs

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Barrier coverage aims at constructing defense barriers to detect the intruder crossing the predefined boundary in a given wireless sensor network. In literature, most studies considered the battery-powered sensors and applied the Boolean Sensing Model ...

Characterization of Long-period Grating Refractive Index Sensors and Their Applications

open access: yesSensors, 2009
The influence of grating length and bend radius of long-period gratings (LPGs) on refractive index sensing was examined. Sensitivity to refractive indexes smaller than that of silica could be enhanced by bending LPGs.

Optical microfiber loop resonator for gas pressure sensing

open access: yesPhysics Open, 2022
Based on theoretical modeling of optical microfiber loop resonator (MLR) and Hauf-Grigull relation, we have combined the ability of MLR in the sensing of ambient refractive index to the linear dependence of the refractive index of gases to the pressure ...

Mutual Support by Sensor-Attacker Team for a Passive Target

open access: yesIEEE Open Journal of Control Systems
We introduce a pursuit game played between a team of a sensor and an attacker and a mobile target in the unbounded Euclidean plane. The target is faster than the sensor, but slower than the attacker.
