Accurate pose estimation plays an important role in solution of simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) problem, required for many robotic applications. This paper presents a new approach called R-SLAM, primarily to overcome systematic and non-systematic odometry errors which are gene ...
Two important microwave remote sensors are the radar and the radiometer.
There have been a number of books written on various aspects of radar, but
there have been only a few written on microwave radiometers, especially on sub-
jects of how to design and build radiometer systems. This book, which is ...
The concept of smart cities emerged few years ago as a new vision for urban
development that aims to integrate multiple information and communication
technology (ICT) solutions in a secure fashion to manage a city’s assets. Modern ICT
infrastructure and e-services should fuel sustainable growth and ...

Communication between various devices makes it possible to pro-
vide unique and innovative services. Although this interdevice com-
munication is a very powerful mechanism, it is also a complex and
clumsy mechanism, leading to a lot of complexity in present day
systems. This not only makes networkin ...
The telecommunications industry has seen a rapid boost within the last decade. New realities
