IMPLEMENTING ATM IN TODAY’S T&E RANGEEslinger, Brian, McCombe, Joleen 10 1900 (has links)
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 25-28, 1999 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is a technology that is experiencing tremendous
growth in the commercial telecommunications sector. Leveraging commercial investment
and introducing ATM into today’s flight test range, while ensuring that all requirements
are satisfied, are paying large dividends in capability and efficiency. The flight test
community imposes unique requirements specifically with regards to telemetry that are not
the norm of the commercial telecommunications industry. Efforts are underway at the Air
Force Flight Test Center (AFFTC), Edwards Air Force Base (AFB) to implement an ATM
system for all range communications.
This paper addresses the unique requirements imposed by the flight test community, a
revolutionary breakthrough from a commercial ATM vendor, and other challenges
experienced while implementing this system. The system being implemented at Edwards
will carry all types of range data over SONET/ATM hybrid equipment and interface to
other flight test ranges and facilities over a mix of commercial leased lines and dedicated
microwaves.

THE USE OF PACKETIZED TELEMETRY IN INVERSE T1 MULTIPLEXINGUrban, Jason 10 1900 (has links)
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 25-28, 1999 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / As the number of telemetry applications at sites increases, the need for a higher
bandwidth link from site-to-site grows. The use of an inverse T1 multiplexer allows the
site to utilize multiple T1 lines rather than more costly higher bandwidth lines. There are
many advantages to using a recognized packet standard, such as IRIG-107/98, over
simply routing the streams through T1 lines. One advantage is that there is a total
separation of data stream clock from T1 transmission clock, reducing synchronization
circuitry and overhead. Another advantage is that the use of packets also allows for a
smooth reconstructed clock phase on the receiving site, creating a virtually seamless
transmission of clock and data. And, finally, by using a recognized packet standard, the
inverse T1 multiplexer may easily be integrated into ranging and telemetry systems
already incorporating packetized telemetry. This paper will discuss the combination of
packets and inverse multiplexing to achieve an expandable transmission system capable
of delivering a high bandwidth data stream across multiple T1 lines.

Luminescent Quantum Dot and Protein Composite Nanoparticles for Bioanalytical ApplicationsWicks, Arriel 14 May 2010 (has links)
The first project focused on the preparation, characterization, and application of dual emission quantum dot encoded mesoporous silica microparticles. The quantum dots were added in precisely controlled ratios and were stably encapsulated within the pores of the silica. Several experiments were performed to test the superior stability of the quantum dot-silica composites over dye-loaded silica particles. The composite particles exhibited very high fluorescence, were functionalized with antibodies, and were used as signal transducers for the detection of a protein expressed by breast cancer cells. The second project focused in more detail on the detection capabilities of the quantum dot-silica composites. Three different types of quantum dot-silica composites were prepared. Each type was loaded with a separate type of quantum dot with distinct emission wavelengths and was functionalized with separate antibodies for detection of three different breast cancer biomarkers. These three composite sensors were used together for the simultaneous detection of each of the breast cancer markers. The initial strategy utilized the direct detection method in which the antigen is nonspecifically adsorbed to a glass plate. An improved second strategy was more sensitive and used a capture antibody which was covalently bound to a glass plate to immobilize the antigen. The third project focused on the preparation and application of magnetic, fluorescent human serum albumin nanoparticle composites. A fluorescent drug analogue and iron oxide nanoparticles were encapsulated into 100 nm human serum albumin nanoparticles. The advantage of these composite particles is that they could be used as a theranostic tool which could target, detect, and treat diseased tissue in a single application. Release of the drug analogue from the nanocomposites was achieved by addition of proteolytic enzymes that are expressed or overexpressed in cancer cells. The temporal release of the fluorescent drug analogue was measured as a function of enzyme concentration. The amount of drug released was directly proportional to enzyme concentration.

Robust, low complexity and energy efficient baseband receiver design for MB-OFDM UWB. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2011 (has links)
Architectures of matched filter in packet detector, CFO corrector, FFT output reorder buffer and phase tracking block are optimized for low complexity. Implemented in O.13-mum CMOS technology, the proposed baseband receiver system has the core area of 2.5 mm2 and the estimated power consumption is 170 mW, which is equivalent to the energy efficiency of 88 pJ/b at 480 Mbps data rate. The implementation results verify the robustness, low complexity and power efficiency of the proposed MB-OFDM UWB baseband receiver. / As an OFDM-based system, MB-OFDM UWB is vulnerable and sensitive to carrier frequency offset (CFO). We employ multipartite table method (MTM) to implement arctangent and sin/cos functions for frequency synchronization. Compared with traditional algorithms, MTM has the advantages of low cost, low power consumption and higher processing speed. Residual phase distortion is corrected by a highly simplified phase tracking method, which also has better performance compared with traditional phase tracking scheme. / Synchronization plays the key role for the performance of the whole baseband receiver system. In this dissertation, a dual-threshold (DT) packet detection scheme is proposed for timing synchronization. Compared with traditional cross-correlation algorithm, DT has much better detection performance, especially in high noise environment. / Ultra-wideband (UWB) technology, targeting at wireless personal area networks (WPANs),brings the convenience of high-speed and short-range wireless interconnects. As a novel communication technique, multi-band orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MB-OFDM) UWB has the features of high spectrum efficiency, multiple access capability and robustness against narrow band interference. However, its inherent high complexity and the requirement of powerful processing for good performance are the obstacles for practical application. / Fan, Wen. / Adviser: Choy Chiu-Sing. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 73-04, Section: B, page: . / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2011. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 105-112). / Electronic reproduction.
