Maximum vertex occupation time and inert fugitive: recontamination does help [online]
PublicationRozważamy problem przeszukania danego grafu prostego G w celu przechwycenia niewidocznego i leniwego uciekiniera. Parametrem optymalizacyjnym, który minimalizujemy jest maksymalny czas (liczba tur strategii przeszukiwania), podczas których wierzchołek może być strzeżony (okupowany przez strażnika). Strategia monotoniczna to taka, która nie dopuszcza sytuacji, w której uciekinier dociera do wierzchołka, który wcześniej został oczyszczony....

Time-Gating method with automatic calibration for accurate measurements of electrically small antenna radiation patterns in Non-Anechoic environments
PublicationNon-anechoic sites represent a cheap alternative to measurements of antennas in dedicated facilities. However, due to a high noise—from the external EM signal sources and multipath interferences—the quality of radiation patterns obtained in non-anechoic conditions is poor. The characteristics can be corrected using a time-gating method (TGM), which involves filtering of the noise based on temporal analysis of the measured signals....
