Differences in perceived chromatic aberration between emmetropic and myopic eyes using adaptive optics by Victor Rodriguez-Lopez, Paulina Dotor-Goytia, Elena Moreno, Maria Vinas-Pena

“…IntroductionThe study of polychromatic visual perception is challenging due to the number of entangled factors involved in the process, from the cues within visual information from the outside world, to the ocular optics, the retinal properties, and neural adaptation processes in the brain.MethodsIn this study, we used an adaptive optics (AO)- based polychromatic visual simulator to investigate the perception of combined optical cues and its dependence on refractive error. …”

An Efficient Transmission Power Design for SWIPT Multi-antenna Network Integrated by an Intelligent Reflecting Surface by Pham Viet Tuan, Dinh Long Hoang, Tu Ha Nguyen, Trong Duc Hoang

“…The sum transmission power minimization problem is formulated under the quality-of-service constraints of data rate and energy harvesting amount at the TS users and the equal time-switching periods. The successive convex approximation and alternating optimization methods are exploited to construct efficient algorithms for finding the suboptimal precoding beamforming vectors at the BS and the phase shifts at the IRS elements. …”
