Abstract:

This note offers an introduction to electromagnetic signal propagation models, which can be used to model terrestrial radio and television signal strength across space. Such data are useful to social scientists interested in identifying the effects of mass media broadcasts when (i) individual-level data on media exposure do not exist or when (ii) media exposure, while observed, is not exogenous. We illustrate the use of electromagnetic signal propagation models by creating a signal strength measure of military-controlled radio stations during the 2012 coup in Mali.

Abstract:

This work presents a preliminary design study of a radio-controlled micro aircraft. The aircraft is designed with the aim to compete in the SAE Aero Design Student Competition. Different designs were performed by different groups of students following the rules given in the SAE 2017 competition document. Such rules include the criteria of having the entire aircraft fit in a specific dimensional cylindrical box in unassembled condition, achieving the highest flight score and carrying the highest possible payload with minimum airframe weight, etc. In this scope, the concept generations of multiple designs for the micro aircraft with appropriate dimensions were done. In addition, basic paper prototypes of the designs which were helpful to visualize the aircraft were constructed. 3D CAD models of designs and 2D drawings for dimensional description were prepared. No prototypes were manufactured due to the Covid-19 situation.

Abstract:

A comprehensive indicator of the reliability of electronic means - the coefficient of readiness, significantly depends on the average recovery time. At the same time, the largest labor costs are spent by repair specialists on finding a faulty element. Diagnostic repair support depends on the models used in the development of defect detection algorithms. The most common use of diag-nostic models is in the form of a graph of information and energy connections, which consists of three types of structures: sequential connection of elements, converging and diverging. The latter did not receive the necessary research. In the article as a result of research of influence of the form of the graph of information and power communications on indicators of quality of di-agnostic maintenance of radio electronic means analytical dependences of an estimation of deviation of the diagnosis at an expert error for converging and diverging structures are received for the first time. This allows to improve the quality of diagnostic software and to minimize di-agnostic errors when using current repairs by the aggregate method by assessing the impact of controlled variables at the stage of creating algorithms for finding defects. It is expedient to use the received results at improvement of diagnostic maintenance of existing radio electronic means and its development for perspective samples for the purpose of increase of quality of current repair irrespective of structure of a product.

Abstract:

Radio- and controlled-source-tensor magnetotelluric (RMT and CSTMT) methods are used to target hydrothermal veins of copper mineralization. The data were acquired along six east-west- and three north-south-trending profiles, covering an area of about [Formula: see text]. The tensor RMT data were collected in the [Formula: see text] frequency band. A double horizontal magnetic dipole transmitter in the [Formula: see text] frequency range allowed us to constrain the deeper parts of the resistivity models better. To obtain optimum field parameters, ground magnetic profiling was conducted prior to the RMT and CSTMT surveys. Although the study area (in Iran) is remote, a number of radio transmitters with acceptable signal-to-noise ratio were utilized. The 2D inversion of RMT data led to unstable resistivity models with large datamisfits. Thus, the RMT data were used to complement and analyze the near-surface resistivity anomalies observed in the 2D CSTMT models. Analyses of strike and dimensionality from the CSTMT data suggests that the low-resistivity structures are mainly three dimensional; therefore, 2D inversion of determinant data is chosen. Independent 2D inversion models of the determinant CSTMT data along crossing profiles are in good agreement. Known copper mineralization is imaged well in the CSTMT models. The thinning of the conductive overburden correlates very well with magnetic highs, indicating the bedrock is resistive and magnetic. In this sense, the magnetic and electromagnetic fields complement each other. Analysis of the 2D resistivity models indicates the volcanic rock deepens at the center of the study area. This zone is associated with a magnetic low and therefore is recommended for detailed exploration work.

Abstract:

Radar ice-thickness surveys and bore-hole measurements suggest that the central part of Ronne Ice Shelf possesses a lobe-shaped basal layer of undetermined nature (probably saline ice). This layer is characterized by high radio-wave absorbtivity and by thicknesses up to approximately 300 m. We reconstruct this basal layer and the associated ice-shelf thickness and flow distributions, using a time-dependent ice-shelf model forced with prescribed basal freezing rates. Characteristics of the basal layer are controlled by two factors: (i) long ice-column residence times in the unventilated pocket between Henry and Korff ice rises and Doake Ice Rumples, and (ii) basal freezing rates in this pocket that exceed the snow-accumulation rate (currently averaging 0.35 m/a ice equivalent across the ice shelf).

Advanced design tools, control devices, and supermaneuverability concepts provide innovative solutions to traditional aircraft design trade-offs. Emerging technologies enable improved agility throughout the performance envelope. Unmanned Air Vehicles provide an excellent platform for dynamic measurements and agility research. A 1/8-scaled F-16A ducted-fan radio-controlled aircraft was instrumented with a telemetry system to acquire angle of attack, sideslip angle, control surface deflection, throttle position, and airspeed data. A portable ground station was built to record and visually present real-time telemetry data. Flight tests will be conducted to acquire baseline high angle-of-attack performance measurements, and follow-on research will evaluate agility improvements with varied control configurations.

Abstract:

An integrated use of radio magnetotelluric (RMT) and controlled source tensor magnetotelluric (CSTMT) measurements, the so-called CSRMT method, has been employed in environmental and resource exploration studies. A number of case histories, including a groundwater investigation in glacial deposits, a study of fracture zones for geotechnical purposes and a mining exploration study of a copper deposit, are presented in this thesis in order to illustrate the usefulness and capability of the CSRMT method. The resolutions of the estimated models using various types of data are studied. Magnetotelluric transfer functions are used to analyze the dimensionality, the near surface resistivity distortions and the near field effects in the case of CSTMT data analysis. The near field effects in CSTMT data have also been identified by performing 2½D forward modelling. Data analysis, dimensionality tests and forward modelling show that at the lowest frequencies used the CSTMT transfer functions are generally distorted by source effects, except when the source-receiver distances are sufficient large compared with the penetration depth. Regarding CSTMT transfer functions, apparent resistivities are generally less distorted than phases. TM mode transfer functions are more affected by the sources than TE mode, while tipper vectors generally contain source signatures at all frequencies. Based on the analysis of dimensionality and source effects 2D inverse modelling of CSTMT and RMT data, as well as their combination, have been performed under the plane wave assumption. The RMT method proved to be a powerful tool for imaging the upper 50 m near-surface, but their penetration depth reduces as a conductive layer structures cover the targets at depth. The penetration depth can be increased by including the CSTMT data in the modelling if the measurements are in the far field range. The resolution of the deeper parts of the models may be improved by performing a joint inversion of TE and TM modes, if the strike direction is well-defined. Alternatively, inversion of determinant data can be performed, since the determinant data are less affected by 3D structures and source effects. However the resolution of the determinant models is somewhat degraded compared to the models inverted from combined TE and TM modes.

M. Tech. (Engineering: Electrical; Department of Electronic Engineering, Faculty of Engineering and Technology )-- Vaal University of Technology
In the ever growing sport of model aircraft, pilots are challenged with many obstacles. In the division of gliders, one of the biggest problems is the loss of model aircraft. Pilots launch their aircraft off mountain tops and if the aircraft crashes below, the pilot must make use of his best estimates in order to locate the aircraft. This either takes several hours, or the aircraft is never recovered. Pilots are also at a loss with regard to real time data, such as, but not limited to, battery levels, fuel levels, altitude and speed. Model aircraft competitions are also limited to the best estimate of officials. In this work an attempt has been made to design and develop a remote tracking device for model aircraft. This device will retrieve Global Positioning System (GPS) co-ordinates from the aircraft and relay them to the pilot on the ground. In the event of a crash, the pilot will retrieve the last GPS co-ordinates and then proceed to the location to collect the aircraft. An attempt will also be made to design add-on telemetry components that will allow for measurement and transmission of battery levels, fuel levels, altitude, G-Force, orientation, acceleration, wind and ground speed. Some of the data retrieved from the Flight Data Recorder (FDR) in trial 1 are: maximum altitude above sea level of 2139.20 m, maximum speed over ground which was 57.34 m/s and the average battery voltage for transceiver and servos was 15.2 v.

The content in the present research is the discussion on how to improve the crashworthiness of radio controlled model airplanes. The analysis is emphasized on the wing structure crashworthiness. For the simplicity of the analysis, it is enhanced by using elastic foundation that are designated to partially absorb or to temporarily sustain the energy of the impact. Besides, the crashworthiness of the fuselage is also mentioned. Both ground tests and flight tests are hold for the assurance of the improvements, which includes the comparison between crashworthiness and flying characteristics. The improvements on the fuselage is basically based on experiences.

Abstract:

Overweight and obesity have increasingly become a health concern globally and, in particular, developing countries such as Zimbabwe. Obesity is associated with an increased risk of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Previous studies in the country have controlled for other factors, but none have examined the relationship between household assets ownership and body mass index. This study examines the association between demographic, socioeconomic factors and household assets ownership and obesity among Zimbabwean women of reproductive age over the 10-year period from 2005 to 2015 based on three Demographic and Health Surveys. The analytical sample consisted of non-pregnant women aged 15–49 years who were dejure household residents. Logistic regression models were used to examine the association between background variables and Body Mass Index. Women in urban areas, with higher education, working and from richer households are more likely to be at risk of overweight and obesity. However, possession of household assets such as television, radio and telephone were not associated with overweight/obesity, except for the television in 2010/11. Thus, there is need for constant awareness programmes on healthy eating food, and physical activity especially among older women and those working.

Abstract:

A radio-controlled (RC) aircraft is controlled remotely by a hand-held transmitter and a receiver within the craft. The working mechanism of such an arrangement designed using an AT89S51 microcontroller is reported in this chapter. The primary focus of the chapter is to describe the design of the interfacing of transceiver module with AT89S51 microcontroller and control the movement of the aircraft according to the instruction given remotely. The microcontroller reads the input given by the user and transmits the data to the receiver at the aircraft. The receiver module receives the transmitted signal and demodulates it and gives the data as serial sequence of bits at the output. The serial data are then given to the decoder which transforms the data from serial to parallel. This set of data is used to control motors and any related device. A special coding technique is used to secure the transmitted data.

Abstract:

In a modern communication system, voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) acts as a basic building block for frequency generation. VCO with LC tank is preferred with passive inductor and varactor in radio frequency. Practical tuning range of VCO is low and unsuitable for wideband application. Switched capacitor and inductor can widen but at cost of chip area and complex system architecture. To overcome it, an equivalent circuit of the inductor is created. In this work, inductor-less VCO is implemented with CMOS 90nm technology that has center frequency 40GHz and frequency tuning range 37.7GHz to 41.9GHz.

Abstract:

Indoor environment can be characterized as sever attenuating and depolarizing medium for electromagnetic (radio) waves propagation. These signals are radiated from transmitters to space (free-space propagation channel) and received from space to receivers through antennas. These signals are commonly radiated or received with pre-defined signal's polarization schemes and these schemes are always controlled by the antenna. In this chapter, the two-dimensional antenna designs and its polarization schemes are presented for minimizing the sever effects of an indoor environment. Emphasis is on understanding the special attention required for designing an antenna dedicated to an Indoor Positioning/Localization System. Some recent developments in antenna designs are presented as an example for the better understanding and its future perspective.

Abstract:

A billion times improved, what once filled large halls and cost millions are now so small and cheap that we throw them away like empty sweet wrappers. Their universal design and common language enables them to talk to each other and control our world. They follow their own law, a Law of Moore, which guarantees their ubiquity. But how fast and how small can they go? When the laws of physics are challenged by their hunger and size, what then? Will they transform into something radical and different? And will we be able to cope with their future needs? . . . A high-pitched voice cut through the general murmur of the Bell Telephone Laboratories Cafeteria. ‘No, I’m not interested in developing a powerful brain. All I’m after is a mediocre brain, something like the President of American Telephone & Telegraph Company.’ Alan Turing was in town. Turing was visiting the Bell Labs towards the end of his American visit, in early 1943. He was there to help with their speech encipherment work for transatlantic communication (coding the transmission of speech so that the enemy could not understand it). But the visit soon became beneficial for a different reason. Every day at teatime Turing and a Bell Labs researcher called Claude Shannon had long discussions in the cafeteria. It seemed they were both fascinated by the idea of computers. But while Turing approached the subject from a very mathematical perspective, Shannon had approached the topic from a different angle. Claude Shannon was four years younger than Turing. Born in a small town called Petoskey, MI, USA, on the shores of Lake Michigan, his father was a businessman, and his mother was the principal of GayLord High School. Claude grew up in the nearby town of GayLord and attended his mother’s school. He showed a great interest in engineering and mathematics from an early age. Even as a child he was building erector sets, model planes, a radio controlled boat, and a telegraph system to his friend’s house half a mile away (making use of two barbed wires around a nearby pasture).

Abstract:

Power Augmented Ram Vehicle is an innovative type of air-assisted fast amphibious transport platform. This craft operates in ground effect and employs propulsor jets for partial or complete support of the vehicle weight. The present paper reviews recent experiments and modeling studies aimed at aero-hydrodynamics phenomena. Representative results of our previous work with static platforms are shown here for (i) recovered thrust and lift of scaled models on both solid and water surfaces, (ii) potential flow theory for air jets with inclusion of effects of the water surface deformation and friction forces, and (iii) pressure distribution under a platform. New results in this paper are presented for (i) front flap augmentation of platform lift, (ii) speed tests of a radio-controlled model on various surfaces, and (iii) viscous simulations of forward-speed motion of a propulsor-platform system. Overall, a progress has been made toward better understanding of aero-hydrodynamics of jet-augmented fast amphibious platforms.

Heavy-payload Power Augmented Ram vehicles represent a new class of amphibious transportation means. In the static and low-speed operational regimes, these machines utilize a skirtless pressurized air cushion generated by front jet propulsors. In the high-speed motion, the aerodynamic lift augmented in ground effect becomes the dominant support. The construction of a small-scale radio-controlled Power Augmented Ram model is described. Results of initial static and self-propelled tests on solid surfaces are presented. Future research work and possible full-scale applications are discussed.

Abstract This paper presents a data-based approach for modeling a plasma etch process by estimating etch rate based on controlled input parameters. This work seeks to use an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model to correlate controlled tool parameters with etch rate and uniformity for a blanket 1100 Å WSiN thin film using Cl2 and BCl3 chemistry. Experimental data was collected using a Lam 9600 PTX plasma metal etch chamber in an industrial cleanroom. The WSiN film was deposited over 3000 Å TEOS to ensure adhesion, with an 8-inch bare silicon wafer as the base layer. Controlled tool parameters were radio frequency (RF) upper electrode power, RF lower electrode power, Cl2 gas flowrate, BCl3 gas flowrate, and chamber pressure. The full factorial design of experiment method was used to select the combinations of experimental configurations. The ANN model was validated using a subset of the training data.

Abstract:

A car-like ground vehicle is a nonlinear and underactuated system subject to nonholonomic constraints. Trajectory tracking control of such systems is a challenging problem. To this end, a trajectory tracking controller based on nonlinear kinematics and dynamics model of a ground vehicle by Trajectory Tracking Control (TLC) is presented in our previous work. In this paper, we present hardware validation of TLC controller design with vehicle parameters determination for a Radio Controlled (RC) scaled model vehicle, experimental implementation, and tuning procedure. Hardware testing results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of our design. The design can be readily scaled-up to full-size vehicles and adapted to different types of autonomous ground vehicles with only knowledge of the vehicle model parameters.
