We propose a two-level dimmer based on binary distribution matching Female Flag Spade Terminals where a low-rate signal controls the output probability distribution of a high-rate bit sequence, which can be used in region-of-interest (RoI) signaling applications.To reduce the rate loss of the dimmer, we propose the extended multiset-partition distr
The need to identifying seeds with low vigor and poor emergence led to introduce of various seed vigor tests.The purpose of this experiment was to assess the ability of controlled deterioration test for evaluation of seed vigor and prediction of oilseed rape seed lots emergence in the field.Samples of 19 seed lots were obtained from nineteen farmer
A novel algorithm for larger size target imaging in sparse aperture is presented in this paper for Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR).In the proposed method, azimuth compressing is done in the range frequency domain to avoid Migration Through Range Cell (MTRC), Pill Boxes and Compress Sensing (CS) is introduced to take place of FFT to reduce t
This paper reflects on learnings and analysis from an extensively globally applied, standardized community disaster resilience measurement framework that utilises bottom-up (locally collected) data.These lessons, from over a decade of on-the-ground work and analysis, are based on empirical evidence and have salience for scholars, policy-makers and
