We present a software radio-based testbed for live testing of OFDM radar algorithms. Unlike previous testing setups, the hardware used (Universal Software Radio Peripherals) was low-cost and low-power, thus making the measurement setup both flexible and easy to use. The hardware can be easily battery powered. Both stationary and mobile measurements in realistic scenarios were performed.

In this paper the experimental equipment for UV-programming of floating-gate circuits are presented along with initial results on concurrent UV-programming of digital floating-gate circuits. It is demonstrated that concurrent UV-programming is possible when using real-time reconfigurable gates (Universal Gates). It is also shown that openings in the passivation, enabling UV-programming, works t...

We describe a new experimental setup for the production of samples of metal clusters embedded in matrices stable at ambient conditions. The cluster ions are generated in the gas phase and codeposited fragmentation-free together with the evaporated matrix. Mean cluster sizes range from a few to many thousands of atoms. For small clusters (n < 20) mass selection is possible, larger clusters are d...

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...

This paper presents the salient aspects of a simulation-based experimental study of scheduling rules for scheduling a dynamic job shop in which the setup times are sequence dependent. A discrete event simulation model of the job shop system is developed for the purpose of experimentation. Seven scheduling rules from the literature are incorporated in the simulation model. Five new setup-oriente...

We report on the realization of a doublewell potential for Rubidium-87 Bose-Einstein condensates. The experimental setup allows the investigation of two different dynamical phenomena known for this system Josephson oscillations and self-trapping. We give a detailed discussion of the experimental setup and the methods used for calibrating the relevant parameters. We compare our experimental find...

This paper deals with the way in which data for multimodal dialogue systems are collected. We argue that for multimodal data, an iterative data collection strategy should be followed. Instead of a single major data collection effort using a “Wizard of OZ” (WOZ) or “prompting” experimental setup, several smaller data collections should accompany the system development. We also describe the “scri...

for technical and economic success of miscible gas injection projects, an accurate laboratory measurement of minimum miscibility pressure (mmp) at reservoir conditions is essential. on the other hand, compositional reservoir simulator is a useful tool in gas injection studies and prediction of mmp. the main goal of this paper is to describe a procedure to generate a three phase sequential type ...

Use of a thermoelectric component (TEC) for an LED module cooling will be studied. The issue will be approached by revealing the operation of a thermoelectric component known also as Peltier element, and the main equations describing its behaviour. An experimental setup including an LED module, a TEC, an heatsink and a fan will be build. Heat dissipation and the electrical performance measureme...
