Prioritising research on endocrine disruption in the marine environment: a global perspective
ABSTRACT A healthy ocean is a crucial life support system that regulates the global climate, is a source of oxygen and supports major economic activities. A vast and understudied biodiversity from micro‐ to macro‐organisms is integral to ocean health.

This work introduces a beamforming‐based method to generate acoustic images from fiber‐optic distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) data. By performing 2D scanning around the sensing fiber, the approach enables near‐field imaging and localization of acoustic sources, even in regions distant from the fiber. A data‐driven DAS channel selection improves image

TranQuiL: Long Range Detection and Localization of Interference in Radio Quiet Zones
Abstract Radio Quiet Zones (RQZs) have been established to prevent radio sources from causing harmful interference to sensitive radio telescopes, which study extremely faint cosmic radio waves. Even with strict regulations, such interference is growing due to the widespread use of consumer electronics, emitting in many different frequency bands ...

A Lightweight, Secure and Reliable Geographic Routing Protocol for Urban VANETs
This paper proposes a Lightweight Secure and Reliable Geographic Routing (LSRGR) protocol. The protocol operates in two phases: (i) a greedy forwarding strategy with location verification, which leverages key urban routing parameters to select the most reliable forwarder and employs a recovery mechanism against routing failures, and (ii) reliable route

Location errors in time of arrival (TOA) and time difference of arrival (TDOA) systems [PDF]
It is shown that the covariance matrix of object location errors is identical for time of arrival (TOA) and time difference of arrival (TDOA) systems if the inverse of the covariance matrix of TOA (TDOA) errors is used as a weighting matrix. Also, with this weighting the location errors statistics do not depend on the particular difference pairs in the

ABSTRACT With the rapid proliferation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the military, logistics and public safety sectors, the threat of illegal intrusion, information theft, and security breaches has increased. This paper provides a comprehensive review of recent developments in counter‐unmanned aerial vehicle (counter‐UAV) systems, focussing on ...

Analysis of Long Wave Polarisation Direction Finding Based on Three‐Axis Magnetic Antenna Array
This paper addresses the joint estimation of multiple parameters for long‐wave and VLF signals by proposing a robust closed‑form direction‑finding algorithm. ABSTRACT To overcome the degradation of conventional direction‐finding accuracy for VLF and LW signals caused by sky‑wave‑induced polarisation deflection, this paper employs a tri‑axial magnetic ...

Joint Time Synchronisation and Localisation Method by TDOA Observation in 5G Networks
This work proposes a method for joint time synchronisation and localisation problems and proposes to obtain the initial values of the alternating iteration algorithm through solving the MVIE problem. The simulations showcase the satisfying positioning accuracy and clock synchronisation accuracy of the proposed method.

A Review of Linear Multilateration Techniques and Applications
In multilateration, distances between an unknown location and several known points are used to determine the location of the unknown point. Papers on algorithms for multilateration, such as time of arrival (TOA), time difference of arrival (TDOA), and ...
