Atmospheric-pressure fast ionization waves (FIWs) generated by nanosecond, high voltage pulses are able to propagate long distances through small diameter dielectric tubes or channels, and so deliver UV fluxes, electric fields, charged and excited species to remote locations. In this paper, the dynamics of FIW splitting and merging in a branched dielectric channel are numerically investigated u...

multicast routing is one of the most important services in multi radio multi channel (mrmc) wireless mesh networks (wmn). multicast routing performance in wmns could be improved by choosing the best routes and the routes that have minimum interference to reach multicast receivers. in this paper we want to address the multicast routing problem for a given channel assignment in wmns. the channels...

many appealing multicast services such as on-demand tv, teleconference, online games and etc. can benefit from high available bandwidth in multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks. when multiple simultaneous transmissions use a similar channel to transmit data packets, network performance degrades to a large extant. designing a good multicast tree to route data packets could enhance the...

Software GPS receiver results are presented for an overland, passive altimeter application utilizing GPS signals. The flight data were collected using a DC-3 aircraft operated by Ohio University. The flight took place over southeast Ohio, where the terrain is hilly and forested. The GPS receiver on board the aircraft contains two channels. One channel has a right-hand-circular-
