A Compressive Sensing Framework for EMI Source Localization Using a Metalens Structure: Localization Beyond the Diffraction Limit

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Hamidreza Karami

In this article, we propose a novel approach for the localization of electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources based on the concept of compressive sensing and metalenses. We show that using the spatial and frequency dispersion offered by the metalens, we ...

Downside Up:Rethinking Parcel Position for Aerial Delivery

Dario Floreano, Przemyslaw Mariusz Kornatowski, William John Stewart, Mir Alikhan Bin Mohammad Feroskhan

The conventional approach to parcel placement in most delivery drone designs today is to place the parcel centrally beneath the drone's rotor plane. However, if the parcel is too large, this will result in an obstruction of the propeller slipstream, incurr ...
