The Space Environment Data Acquisition equipment (SEDA), which was mounted on the Exposed Facility (EF) of the Japanese Experiment Module (JEM, also known as “Kibo”) on the International Space Station (ISS), was developed to measure the space environment along the orbit of the ISS. This payload module, called the SEDA-Attached Payload (AP), began to measure the space environment in August 2009....

Reducing the use of pesticides by early visual detection of diseases in precision agriculture is important. Because of the color similarity between potato-plant diseases, narrow band hyper-spectral imaging is required. Payload constraints on unmanned aerial vehicles require reduction of spectral bands. Therefore, we present a methodology for per-patch classification combined with hyper-spectral...

MSC (Multi-Spectral Camera) is the payload of KOMPSAT-2, which is being developed for earth imaging in optical and near-infrared region. The design of the MSC is completed and its reliability has been assessed from part level to the MSC system level. The reliability was analyzed in worst case and the analysis results showed that the value complies the required value of 0.9. In this paper, a cal...

This document describes a payload format for use with the real-time transport protocol (RTP), version 2, for encoding redundant audio data. The primary motivation for the scheme described herein is the development of audio conferencing tools for use with lossy packet networks such as the Internet Mbone, although this scheme is not limited to such applications.

Evaluation of the performance of electro-optical payload within the laboratory is discussed. This method is valid for the system, which has output in the form of electrical signal though the input is optical in nature. The methodology enables the evaluation of entire configuration of electro-optical payload comprising of lens system, photo detecting device (one or two dimension array) and proce...

The position of the DC motor is controlled by using a continuous sliding mode control (SMC), which is highly robust to the Coulomb friction torque and to high unknown payload variations, which involve changes in the rotational inertia of the motor shaft. The main contribution of the work is the experimentation of a SMC control which does not requires the knowledge of the payload variation range...

A novel optical layer performance monitoring method in transparent optical-label switching networks is presented. It is based on the signal quality correlation between the data payload and the label, which allows monitoring of the data payload signal quality by monitoring the label bit error rates. Experimental results indicate effective estimations of payload data bit error rates over approxim...
