BASAT: BLE AOA-Based Spatio-Temporal Acoustic TOA Estimator

open access: yesIEEE Access
In severely reverberant indoor environments, acoustic Time-of-Arrival (TOA) localization on commercial smartphones is prone to multipath-induced bias and unreliable ranging.

A novel time of arrival estimation algorithm using an energy detector receiver in MMW systems

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2017
This paper presents a new time of arrival (TOA) estimation technique using an improved energy detection (ED) receiver based on the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) in an impulse radio (IR) 60 GHz millimeter wave (MMW) system.

A Closed-Form Localization Algorithm and GDOP Analysis for Multiple TDOAs and Single TOA Based Hybrid Positioning

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
Cellular communication systems support mobile phones positioning function for Enhanced-911 (E-911) location requirements, but the positioning accuracy is poor. The fifth-generation (5G) cellular communication system can use indoor distribution systems to

Measurement and modeling of diffuse ultraviolet radiation: A review

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Solar UV radiation consists of direct and diffuse UV components. The diffuse component contributes to the exposure received by humans and to the risk of skin cancer and sun‐related eye disorders. This review aims to determine future research directions for the measurement and modeling of diffuse solar UV radiation.

Novel sensor location scheme using time-of-arrival estimates

open access: yes, 2012
This study proposes a novel scheme for locating an asynchronous sensor with synchronised beacons using time-of-arrival (TOA) estimates. In this scheme, a reference beacon initiates the localisation by emitting a ranging signal, and the sensor position is

Disaster Schooling Experiences and Emergent Crises: Lessons From Puerto Rico

open access: yesAnthropology &Education Quarterly, Volume 57, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the disaster schooling experiences of Puerto Rican educators, families, and students across multiple crises following Hurricane Maria. Drawing on 11 months of ethnographic research, we analyze how schooling unfolded across disasters and how long‐standing vulnerabilities and structural inequalities shaped responses. Findings

Time of arrival extraction for impact localisation on composite structures

open access: yes
Time of arrival (TOA) serves as a widely utilised metric for pinpointing impact locations on composite aircraft structures. Nevertheless, the effectiveness and reliability of existing TOA extraction methods across diverse impact scenarios remains unclear.

Patient‐ and Clinician‐Related Factors Associated With the Reduction in Opioid Use Among Adults With Chronic Non‐Cancer Pain: A Systematic Review

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 120, Issue 1, Page 66-80, July 2026.
Despite known risks, opioids are widely used for chronic non‐cancer pain (CNCP). Clinical guidelines now recommend deprescribing, but factors predicting success are poorly understood. This systematic review aimed to identify clinician and patient factors associated with attaining successful opioid dose reduction or discontinuation in adults with CNCP ...
