Software-defined radios (SDRs) have been around for more than a decade. The
first complete Global Positioning System (GPS) implementation was described
by Dennis Akos in 1997. Since then several research groups have presented their
contributions. We therefore find it timely to publish an up-to-date ...
This book is about global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), their two main instru-
ments, which are a receiver and a simulator, and their applications. The book is based on
an operational off-the-shelf real-time software GNSS receiver and off-the-shelf GNSS
signalsimulator.Theacademicversionsofth ...
Simulation is experimentation with models. For system design, research, and edu-
cation, simulations must not only construct and modify many different models but
also store and access a large volume of results. That is practical only with models
programmed on computers [1,2]
This book describes a unifying framework to networked teleoperation systems
cutting across multiple research fields including networked control system for linear
and nonlinear forms, bilateral teleoperation, trilateral teleoperation, multilateral
teleoperation, cooperative teleoperation, and some te ...
The idea of writing this book arose from the need to investigate the main principles of
modern power electronic control strategies, using fuzzy logic and neural networks, for
research and teaching. Primarily, the book aims to be a quick learning guide for
postgraduate/undergraduate students or desig ...
The past decade has seen an explosion of machine learning research and appli-
cations; especially, deep learning methods have enabled key advances in many
applicationdomains,suchas computervision,speechprocessing,andgameplaying.
However, the performance of many machine learning methods is very sensi ...
The large-scale deployment of the smart grid (SG) paradigm could play a strategic role in
supporting the evolution of conventional electrical grids toward active, flexible and self-
healing web energy networks composed of distributed and cooperative energy resources.
From a conceptual point of view, ...
The present era of research and development is all about interdisciplinary studies
attempting to better comprehend and model our understanding of this vast universe.
The fields of biology and computer science are no exception. This book discusses
some of the innumerable ways in which computational m ...
Much has been written concerning the manner in which healthcare is changing, with
a particular emphasis on how very large quantities of data are now being routinely
collected during the routine care of patients. The use of machine learning meth-
ods to turn these ever-growing quantities of data into ...
This edition of Digital Image Processing is a major revision of the book. As in
the 1977 and 1987 editions by Gonzalez and Wintz, and the 1992, 2002, and 2008
editions by Gonzalez and Woods, this sixth-generation edition was prepared
with students and instructors in mind. The principal objectives of ...
