A distributed temperature sensor based on spontaneous Brillouin scattering and employing optical pulse coding has been implemented and characterized using a direct-detection receiver. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) enhancement provided by coding is analyz ...

An X-ray diffraction experiment on multilamellar membranes incorporated into an X-ray waveguide structure is reported. In the device, the lipid bilayers are confined to one side by the silicon substrate and to the other side by an evaporated thin metal cap ...
We present a new method for compressing spatio-temporal audio data for reproduction through Wave Field Synthesis. The data is obtained by sampling the sound field in space at equally-spaced points on a straight line, and transformed into the frequency doma ...
The temporal and spatial distribution of water within a porous medium is affected by the medium's structure, i.e., the spatial arrangement of its constituents. To analyze structural effects on the fluid dynamics, we measured the 3D water content distributi ...
Objective To evaluate a transverse electromagnetic (TEM), a circularly polarized (CP) (birdcage), and a 12-channel phased array head coil at the clinical field strength of B (0) = 3T in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), signal homogeneity, and maps of ...
Laser Doppler Imaging (LDI) is a non-invasive optical technique used for assessing the blood flow in biological tissue. This technique allows visualizing 2D distribution of blood flow over an extended area of tissue, e.g. human skin. We have developed a ne ...
The Lausanne ClearPET demonstrator is one of the new generation of high resolution small animal PET scanners. A high resolution PET scanner aims to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio measured in pixels for a given time without compromising spatial resoluti ...
Optical low coherence reflectometry (OLCR) was used for the measurement of the local fiber Bragg grating (FBG) birefringence. The birefringence with resolution of 4 x 10(-6) was determined directly from oscillations in the OLCR amplitude with a spatial res ...
This work develops an adaptive sigma-delta modulator that is based on adapting the quantizer step-size using estimates of the quantizer input rather than the modulator input. The adaptive modulator with a first-order noise shaping filter is shown to be bou ...
The memoryless noncoherent single-input-single-output (SISO) Rayleigh-fading channel is considered. Closed-form expressions are derived for the mutual information between the output and the input of this channel when the input magnitude distribution is dis ...
