Adjusting radar transmitted waveform to its environment is one of the most important roles in cognitive radar; having the capability of updating transmitted waveforms in different applications is a key point. It has been shown in many studies that if the waveform is designed according to the target and clutter characteristics, the detection performance will improve significantly. The uncertaint...

Fast-scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV) is an electrochemistry technique which allows subsecond detection of neurotransmitters in vivo. Adenosine detection using FSCV has become increasingly popular but can be difficult because of interfering agents which oxidize at or near the same potential as adenosine. Triangle shaped waveforms are traditionally used for FSCV, but modified waveforms have been i...

A weak-shock solution is obtained for the nonlinear propagation of a waveform that initially has the form of an asymmetric double exponential. Such a wave shocks at its peak, so that shock growth and wave-amplitude attenuation occur simultaneously. Simple formulas for wave amplitude, shock amplitude, and arrival time are given as is an expression for the waveform. We also present a general tech...
