چکیده

We present a prototype system for a simple version of electro-magnetic wave propagation prediction in rural areas, using a real-time exploration environment for very large topographic scenes. The wave propagation prediction algorithm is based on a simple line-of-sight approach, realized with a modified hidden surface removal algorithm. The system serves as a transmitter management tool, for interactively placing transmitters and studying the effects. Improvements according to the propagation prediction and automatic optimized placement of transmitters are current subjects of our research.

Finite-Difference Time-Domain Simulation of Light Propagation in 2D Periodic and Quasi-Periodic Photonic Structures

Ultra-short pulse is a promising technology for achieving ultra-high data rate transmission which is required to follow the increased demand of data transport over an optical communication system. Therefore, the propagation of such type of pulses and the effects that it may suffer during its transmission through an optical waveguide has received a great deal of attention in the recent years. We...

Flood hazard zoning using geographic information system (GIS) and HEC-RAS model (Case study: Rasht City)

Rivers are important water resources for human life, but sometimes cause irreparable damages. The flood plains are fertile terrains which are endangered by flood. Flood hazard mapping is one of the basic methods in flood fighting. In order to decline flood damages, the simulation of the hydraulic behavior of the rivers during flood occurrence is very important. In this study, areas that are flo...
