Detection of a Reflective Layer in a Random Medium Using Time Reversal
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a method of detecting a reflective layer in a layered random medium using the time reversal of an acoustic wave. Comparing the refocused signal with the original probing pulse enables us to detect a change it the medium’s acoustic properties. The depth of the reflector is pinpointed even in the absence of a direct coherent reflection. We present experimental results validating the proposed algorithm.

Efficiency Enhancement of Si Solar Cells by Using Nanostructured Single and Double Layer Anti-Reflective Coatings
The effect of single and double-layer anti-reflective coatings on efficiency enhancement of silicon solar cells was investigated. The reflectance of different anti-reflection structures were calculated using the transfer matrix method and then to predict the performance of solar cells coated by these structures, the weighted average reflectance curves were used as an input of a PC1D simulation....
متن کاملTime reversal for inclusion detection in randomly layered media
In this work we discuss detection of changes in a random medium when the measurements are not perfect, i.e. a noise from the electronic devices is included. We study a regime in which the typical length scales involved are well-separated. Moreover, since detection procedures based on the analysis of the reflected signals can fail because of the lack of coherency, we introduce a technique based ...

Ionosphere layer variations are divided into regular and irregular. Regular changes can be considered as daily changes, changes depending on latitude and changes due to solar activity. Travelling Ionospheric Disturbances (TID) is one of the irregular changes of ionosphere which categorized in small, medium and large scales. Medium-scale Travelling Ionospheric Disturbance (MSTID) which are propa...

Mehta, Kurang. Numerical Methods to Implement Time Reversal of Waves Propagating in Complex Random Media. (Under the direction of Dr. J P Fouque (MATH Department) and Dr. Gianluca Lazzi (ECE Department)). A time reversal mirror is a device capable of receiving a signal in time, keeping it in memory, and sending it back into the same medium in the reversed direction of time. The main effect is t...
