Point Pattern Synthesis

چکیده
Patterns consisting of point symbols are commonly applied to symbolize land cover. Tree symbols, for example, indicate forested areas; small irregular dots show quarries and pits; or regular line symbols represent a vineyard. This paper presents an automatic method for synthesizing patterns consisting of one or more point symbols. Symbols of varying sizes or graphical appearance can be combined according to user-defined ratios. The automatic method generates patterns of regularly or irregularly distributed symbols. It ensures that symbols do not overlap and do not graphically conflict with other map features. The method has been implemented in a free plug-in for the Adobe Illustrator vector graphics editor.

RP-SYN: synthesis of random pattern testable circuits with test point insertion
An automated logic synthesis procedure, called RPSYN, is described for synthesizing random pattern testable circuits. RP-SYN takes as an input a two-level description of a circuit and a constraint on the minimum fault detection probability (threshold below which faults are considered randompattern-resistant), and generates a multilevel implementation which satisfies the constraint while minimiz...
متن کاملAutomated Logic Synthesis of Random-Pattern-Testable Circuits
Previous approaches to designing random pattern testable circuits use post-synthesis test point insertion to eliminate random pattern resistant (r.p.r.) faults. The approach taken in this paper is to consider random pattern testability during logic synthesis. An automated logic synthesis procedure is presented which takes as an input a two-level representation of a circuit and a constraint on t...

متن کاملPhase Only Synthesis of Antenna Patterns Using Iterative Restoration Methods
In this work, the method of iterative Fourier transform phase reconstruction, conventionally used in holography and optical image reconstruction, is applied to phase only synthesis of antenna patterns. The method is applied to two types of pattern synthesis problems: "main lobe beam shaping" and "side-lobe-level reduction". The proposed method is most useful in the efficient employment of attai...
متن کاملDual Polarization Synthesis and Optimization of Cylindrical Offset Reflector Antenna for Cosecant-squared Radiation Pattern
This paper presents the shaping optimization of an S-band cylindrical offset reflector antenna with cosecant-squared radiation pattern in elevation plane. The cross section of the antenna is mathematically modeled by a polynomial function and optimized by the genetic algorithm to obtain the desired pattern for both TE and TM polarizations. The physical optics method together with the uniform th...
متن کاملAntenna Array Pattern Synthesis via Convex Optimization - Signal Processing, IEEE Transactions on
We show that a variety of antenna array pattern synthesis problems can be expressed as convex optimization problems, which can be (numerically) solved with great efficiency by recently developed interior-point methods. The synthesis problems involve arrays with arbitrary geometry and element directivity, constraints on farand near-field patterns over narrow or broad frequency bandwidth, and som...
