This finding is used to infer that plasma density (N) must be enhanced within the sheet-like region, and that FAI could be generated by an interchange instability, driven by a…

This paper presents the results of an investigation to quantitatively determine the limits of Falconer's monostatic-to-bistatic equivalence theorem (MBET).

Introduction The prescaler described here connects to the front end of a 100-MHz frequency counter to extend its coverage range to 10 GHz. The circuit is a far less expensive…

In this paper we present the results of comparative study of ozone sensors that are designed using undoped SnO2 and In2O3 films.

Recently, a breakthrough in novel materials and fabrication methods was achieved that will make higher-performance back-thinned imagers readily available for mass production. Using ultrathin silicon-on-insulator wafer technology, the method will…

A micromachined surface stress sensor has been fabricated and integrated off chip with a low-noise, differential capacitance, electronic readout circuit.

The amperometric gas sensor, or AGS, belongs to a large and important class of electrochemical gas sensors, and they play an ever-increasing role in environmental monitoring, medical and health applications,…

This paper addresses the problem of localizing both absolute and relative 3-D positions of mobile sensor network nodes by fusing inertial measurements and radio frequency (RF) ranging measurements. Four online…

In this paper, we demonstrate that Sondrestrom incoherent scatter radar (ISR) observations have the ability to accurately monitor the dayside convection with ∼2.5 min temporal resolution.

We report our first experiences with Leaving Flatland, an exploratory project which studies the key challenges in closing the loop on autonomous perception and action in challenging terrain.
