The Internet of Things is considered to be the next big opportunity, and challenge, for the
Internet engineering community, users of technology, companies and society as a whole. It
involves connecting embedded devices such as sensors, home appliances, weather stations
and even toys to Internet Prot ...
This book is intended to help electric power and telephone company
personnel and individuals interested in properly protecting critical tele
communications circuits and equipment located in high voltage (HV)
environments and to improve service reliability while maintaining safe
working conditions. ...
This book is intended for the graduate or advanced undergraduate
engineer. The primary motivation for developing the text was to present a
complete tutorial of phase-locked loops with a consistent notation. I believe
this is critical for the practicing engineer who uses the text as a self-study
guid ...
In a cellular communication system, a service area or a geographical
region is divided into a number of cells, and each cell is served by an
infrastructure element called the base station through a radio interface.
Management of radio interface related resources is a critical design
component in cel ...
Reliable and accurate positioning and navigation is critical for a diverse set of emerging applications
calling for advanced signal-processing techniques. This book provides an overview of some of the
most recent research results in the field of signal processing for positioning and navigation, addr ...
Radio frequency spectrum is a scarce and critical natural resource that is utilized for
many services including surveillance, navigation, communication, and broadcast-
ing. Recent years have seen tremendous growth in the use of spectrum especially by
commercial cellular operators. Ubiquitous use of ...
Failure analysis is invaluable in the learning process of electrostatic discharge (ESD) and
electrical overstress (EOS) protection design and development [1–8]. In the failure analysis
of EOS, ESD, and latchup events, there are a number of unique failure analysis processes
andinformationthatcanprov ...
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) events can have serious detrimental
effects on the manufacture and performance of microelectronic devices,
the systems that contain them, and the manufacturing facilities used to
produce them. Submicron d ...
In the present era, low observability is one of the critical requirements in aerospace
sector, especially related to defense. The stealth technology essentially relates to
shaping and usage of radar absorbing materials (RAM) or radar absorbing struc-
tures (RAS). The performance of such radar cross ...
Electric distribution networks are critical parts of power delivery systems. In recent
years, many new technologies and distributed energy resources have been inte-
grated into these networks. To provide electricity at the possible lowest cost and at
required quality, long-term planning is essential ...
