In this letter we propose a novel method to unambiguously estimate the phase-difference of a single-frequency signal measured between a pair of spatially separated sensors. First, we mathematically prove that, in a noiseless system, the phase between a pair of spatially separated sensors with inter-sensor spacing exceeding half wavelength (λ2 ) of the signal of interest, can unambiguously be es...

Phase measurements of the transmission coefficient are important when used for the dielectric characterization of materials. They are required for industrial material monitoring applications, where the phase is correlated with parameters such as moisture content and density, which need to be continuously determined. However, when the thickness of the material under test is greater than the wave...

Resolution of carrier phase ambiguities on the fly (OTF) using a pair (monitor/remote) of single frequency receivers is difficult to achieve reliably in an operational environment due to the unfavorable ratio between carrier phase noise and multipath on the one hand, and the 19 cm wavelength of the Ll carrier on the other hand. The use of the 86 cm wavelength widelane carrier is much more effec...

So far the least growth rate known for a divergent inherent ambiguity function was logarithmic. This paper shows that for each computable divergent total non-decreasing function f : N → N there is a context-free language L with a divergent inherent ambiguity function g below f . This proves that extremely slow growing divergent inherent ambiguity functions exist. For instance there is a context...

Microaggressions are unintentional or thoughtless behaviors that convey negative messages to members of minority groups. Due to the attributional ambiguity of microaggressions, people often differ in their judgments about how morally bad acts of microaggression are. To account for this individual variation, we explored the potential influence of heavy social media use on individuals’ moral judg...
