Chirped pulses sum frequency generation for deep-UV picosecond pulse shaping
(2012)We show by experiments and simulations that properly chirped laser pulses enable efficient and broadband sum frequency generation in nonlinear crystals. We achieved high energy, picosecond deep-UV pulses with spectral ... -
Choice of approaches in developing novel medical countermeasures for nerve agent poisoning
(2014)During the establishment of a research branch, all relevant matters encountered will be of interest to study. After having acquired a body of basal knowledge, it becomes possible to derive ideas or hypotheses for further ... -
Classification based on fast and robust approximations to order statistics
(2020-04-22)A test system with four cameras in the infrared and visual spectra is under development at FFI (The Norwegian Defence Research Establishment). The system may be mounted on a jet aircraft or may be used in a land-based ... -
Classification of birds and UAVs based on radar polarimetry
(2016)This letter aims to show the potential of using polarimetric parameters to distinguish between large birds and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) of comparable size in the context of a modern long-range air defense radar. ... -
Classification of Ships Using Real and Simulated Data in a Convolutional Neural Network
(2016)Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have recently been applied successfully in large scale image classification competitions for photographs found on the Internet. As our brains are able to recognize objects in the images, ... -
Clostridium botulinum Group I Strain Genotyping by 15-Locus Multilocus Variable-Number Tandem-Repeat Analysis
(2011)Clostridium botulinum is a taxonomic designation that encompasses a broad variety of spore-forming, Gram-positive bacteria producing the botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT). C. botulinum is the etiologic agent of botulism, a rare ... -
A Cloud-based experimentation and analysis framework for services at the tactical edge
(2022-09-22)In this paper we present an experimentation and analysis framework that utilizes a public cloud infrastructure for most of the experimentation environment but also supports interaction with services installed on servers ... -
Coherent high-speed acoustic communication inside a commercial atlantic salmon pen
(2020-06-07)Fish telemetry is a potential method to monitor the well-being of farmed fish, where a reference group of fish are equipped with sensors tags that oversee their health and wirelessly transmit the data. Many fish must be ... -
Coherent range and Doppler-walk compensation in PBR applications
(2014)The focus of PBR research has shifted from FM to also include DVB-T and DAB over the last years, and are facing the challenges of higher bandwidth, i.e. improved range resolution. While the FM based PBR systems primarily ... -
Colliding Pulse Mode Locking and Nonequilibrium Carrier Dynamics within Vertical External-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers
(2022-08-02)The complex nonlinear dynamics of colliding counterpropagating ultrashort laser pulses circulating in a vertical external-cavity surface-emitting ring laser cavity are captured by a first-principles quantum-mechanical ... -
Collision Avoidance for Underactuated Marine Vehicles Using the Constant Avoidance Angle Algorithm
(2019-03-21)Avoiding collisions is a crucial ability for unmanned vehicles. In this paper, we present the constant avoidance angle algorithm, a reactive method for collision avoidance. It can be used to avoid both static and moving ... -
Collision Avoidance for Underactuated Surface Vehicles in the Presence of Ocean Currents
(2022-11-29)This paper considers the problem of collision avoidance for surface vehicles moving under the influence of ocean currents. The vehicles we consider have underactuated dynamics, where the vehicle cannot directly control its ... -
Combination of stereo SAR and InSAR for DEM generation using TanDEM-X spotlight data
(2017)The objective of this work is to generate accurate digital elevation models (DEMs) from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferograms using the spotlight and staring spotlight modes during the TanDEM-X (TDX) science phase. ... -
Combined range ambiguity resolution and noise reduction in lidar signal processing
(2018)When the interval between transmitted pulses is shorter than the time of flight, it is not straightforward for a lidar to determine the distance uniquely. We present a method that uses varying pulse intervals, constructs ... -
