A Dual-Frequency RF Front-End for Long Antenna-GPS Receiver Links

Pierre-André Farine, Cyril Botteron, Frédéric Chastellain, Elham Firouzi, Jean-Pierre Aubry

While the Global Positioning System (GPS) is best known for its positioning applications, another way to use GPS is as a time reference for telecommunication networks synchronization. However, as every new communication standard is more demanding, the prec ...

Understanding sawtooth activity during intense electron cyclotron heating experiments on TCV

Timothy Goodman, Ivo Furno, Holger Reimerdes, Henri Weisen, Antoine Pochelon, Roland Behn

Different types of central relaxation oscillations are observed in the presence of ECH depending on the location of the deposited power. In the TCV tokamak, normal sawteeth, i.e. triangular sawteeth similar to ohmic sawteeth, and saturated sawteeth are obs ...

Condensation origin of some metal grains in CH chondrites: Implications for the formation of metal in the CR-clan

Anders Meibom

We report findings of large metal grains (~150 um) with distinct zoning patterns in Ni, Co, Cr, and Si in CH chondrites which are consistent with a condensation origin from a gas of solar composition. ...

Approche de conception et d’optimisation de centrale solaire intégrée à cycle combiné inspirée de la méthode du pincement (partie 1: paliers de récupération)

Daniel Favrat, El Hadj Malick Kane

Integrated solar combined cycle systems (ISCCS) represent, both economically and energetically, a promising alternative for the conversion of solar energy while offering a guarantee of a minimum power supply independant of the level of solar radiation. The ...

CO2 Mitigation Through the Use of Hybrid Solar-Combined Cycles.

Daniel Favrat

The integration of a solar collector field generating steam into a conventional combined cycle in order to partially replace the fossil fuel required by the latter results in a substantial reduction in greenhouse gases, in an increase in the return on inve ...
