Alternating Projections Filtering Algorithm to Track Moving Objects by Youssef Qranfal

“…An interest is often present in knowing evolving variables that are not directly observable; this is the case in aerospace, engineering control, medical imaging, or data assimilation. What is at hand, though, are time-varying measured data, a model connecting them to variables of interest, and a model of how to evolve the variables over time. …”

Ultra-Wideband Fractal Ring Antenna for Biomedical Applications by Ilyas Saleem, Umair Rafique, Shobit Agarwal, Hüseyin Şerif SAVCI, Syed Muzahir Abbas, Subhas Mukhopadhyay

“…In UWB technology, short-range wireless communication is possible with low transceiving power, a characteristic that is particularly advantageous in the context of microwave and millimeter-wave (mmWave) medical imaging. In the proposed antenna configuration, the UWB response is achieved by introducing wedged slots in the radiating patch, designed on a low-loss substrate. …”
