Fiber-tip photonic crystal for real-time referenced biosensing in serum by Mathias Dolci, Paco Dreverman, Mildred S. Cano-Velázquez, Arthur L. Hendriks, Emiel Veth, P.J. van Veldhoven, Andrea Fiore, Peter Zijlstra

“…Fiber optic sensors have become increasingly well-established due to the many advantages they provide such as immunity to electromagnetic interference, multiplexing capabilities, and remote sensing. The coupling of light with a transducer at the tip of the optical fiber enables the detection of physical and biological parameters. 2D photonic crystals (PhC) can be designed to feature guided-mode resonances (GMR) characterized by a strong electric field at the PhC surface, providing a suitable tool for the detection of local refractive index variations (e.g. biomolecule adsorption). …”

Two 2-D DOA Estimation Methods with Full and Partial Generalized Virtual Aperture Extension Technology by Riheng Wu, Yangyang Dong, Zhenhai Zhang, Le Xu

“…For the sparse reconstruction method, first, we give a lemma to verify that the received data model is equivalent to its dictionary-based sparse representation under certain mild conditions, and the uniqueness of solutions is guaranteed by assuming azimuth and elevation indices to lie on different rows and columns of sparse signal cross-correlation matrix; we then derive two kinds of data models to reconstruct sparse 2-D DOA via M-FOCUSS with and without compressive sensing (CS) involvements; finally, the numerical simulations validate the proposed approaches outperform the existing methods at a low or moderate complexity cost.…”
