High Duty Cycle to Low Duty Cycle: Echolocation Behaviour of the Hipposiderid Bat Coelops frithii
Laryngeally echolocating bats avoid self-deafening (forward masking) by separating pulse and echo either in time using low duty cycle (LDC) echolocation, or in frequency using high duty cycle (HDC) echolocation. HDC echolocators are specialized to detect fluttering targets in cluttered environments. HDC echolocation is found only in the families Rhinolophidae and Hipposideridae in the Old World...
متن کاملEvolution of high duty cycle echolocation in bats.
Duty cycle describes the relative 'on time' of a periodic signal. In bats, we argue that high duty cycle (HDC) echolocation was selected for and evolved from low duty cycle (LDC) echolocation because increasing call duty cycle enhanced the ability of echolocating bats to detect, lock onto and track fluttering insects. Most echolocators (most bats and all birds and odontocete cetaceans) use LDC ...
متن کاملHigh duty cycle echolocation and prey detection by bats.
There are two very different approaches to laryngeal echolocation in bats. Although most bats separate pulse and echo in time by signalling at low duty cycles (LDCs), almost 20% of species produce calls at high duty cycles (HDCs) and separate pulse and echo in frequency. HDC echolocators are sensitive to Doppler shifts. HDC echolocation is well suited to detecting fluttering targets such as fly...
متن کاملCalculation of the Duty Cycle for BECA
Consumption of energy is one of the major problems in wireless sensor network, as sensor nodes driven on battery power. Therefore, it is intended to minimize the power consumption by putting the wireless interface of the sensor nodes in low power sleep mode. Wireless sensor networks constructed with hundreds and thousands of wireless sensor nodes and they deployed to solve different problems of...
متن کاملAnalysis of IEEE 802.15.4 MAC under low duty cycle
In this Letter, a discrete-time Markov Chain model is developed to study performance of IEEE 802.15.4 under low duty cycle. The performance is measured in terms of aggregate throughput and average power consumption per packet. The proposed analytical model is verified through ns2 simulations.
