Probe Selection and Power Weighting in Multiprobe OTA Testing: A Neural Network-Based Approach by Yong Li, Hao Sun, Xingyu Chen, Lijian Xin, Xiang Zhang

“…In this paper, a novel approach based on neural networks (NNs) is proposed to derive suitable angular locations as well as power weights of OTA probe antennas; in particular, by using the regularization technique, active probe locations and their weights can be optimized simultaneously with only one training process of the proposed NN. Simulations demonstrate that compared with the convex optimization-based approach to perform probe selection in the literature, e.g., the well-known multishot algorithm, the proposed NN-based approach can yield similar channel emulation accuracy with significantly reduced computational complexity.…”

Temporal Changes in Concentrations of Some Trace Elements in Muscle Tissue of Crayfish, Astacus leptodactylus (Eschscholtz, 1823), from Keban Dam Lake by Onder Aksu, Ragip Adiguzel, Veysel Demir, Numan Yildirim, Durali Danabas, Sebahat Seker, Safak Seyhaneyildiz Can, Mustafa Ates

“…In general, it was found that the concentrations of trace elements investigated were lower than the maximum permissible limits of the food regulations of the Ministry of Food, Agriculture, and Livestock (MFAL), the Turkish Food Codex and Commission Regulation (EC). If the crayfish selected for the study are recognized as bioindicators of environmental pollution, then it is possible to conclude that the changes in studied trace elements concentrations in the Keban Dam Lake are being steady.…”

Modeling and Data Analysis of Bistatic Bottom Reverberation from a Towed Horizontal Array by Zhaohua Su, Jie Zhuo, Chao Sun

“…The analysis indicates that the vertical stripes within the structures originate from eigenrays in the mirror reflection direction. Furthermore, the convex stripes are predominantly affected by the direct ray and the surface reflection ray among the scattered eigenrays, whereas the concave and elliptical stripes are primarily affected by the bottom-surface reflection ray and the surface-bottom-surface reflection ray within the scattered eigenrays.…”
