Atmospheric turbulence profile modeling for satellite-ground laser communication
Profiles of the index of refraction structure parameter (Cn2), as well as inner and outer scales of turbulence, are of high importance to estimate and predict the channel behavior characterizing satellite to ground optical links. The Cn2 HufnagelValley model is up to date the most commonly used one due to its simplicity and relative accuracy. However, it can be quite inadequate especially for g...
متن کاملMeasuring Gait Using a Ground Laser Range Sensor
This paper describes a measurement system designed to register the displacement of the legs using a two-dimensional laser range sensor with a scanning plane parallel to the ground and extract gait parameters. In the proposed methodology, the position of the legs is estimated by fitting two circles with the laser points that define their contour and the gait parameters are extracted applying a s...
متن کاملCharacterization of atmospheric turbulence for LEO to ground laser beam propagation at low elevation angles
Data transfer from Low Earth Orbit satellites to ground implies the availability of communication link at various elevations. Increasing the overall downlink capacity implies communication even at low elevation angle. Optical laser link throughput capacities are highly dependent on propagation conditions. Unfortunately these conditions are more severe at low elevations due to a longer path in t...
متن کاملOptical trap setup for measuring microtubule pushing forces
We present an optical trap design for force measurements of polymerizing microtubules. These stiff, filamentous cell components contribute to dynamic processes by generating pushing forces, for example during cell division. Although single traps are widely used for molecular pulling processes, studying pushing by flexible filaments requires extra measures. We introduce multiple, asymmetric trap...
متن کاملExperimental Setup for Measuring the Thermal Conductivity of Pressurized Solutions
Knowledge about the thermal conductivity is expedient whenever heat transport is involved in a process. As pressure plays an important role in a multitude of treatments or reactions, conductivity measurements have also been carried out under pressure for various substances (e. g. lubricants, plant oils and several foods). Experimental data are needed as this property cannot be derived from equa...
