In this paper, we propose a lantern-tree-based QoS multicast protocol with reliable mechanism for wireless ad-hoc networks, where the MAC sub-layer is adopted the CDMA-over-TDMA channel model. In this paper, we identify a lantern-tree for developing on-demand QoS multicast protocol with reliable mechanism to satisfy certain bandwidth requirement from a source to a set of destination nodes. The ...

We demonstrate the fabrication of a high performance multi-mode (MM) to single-mode (SM) splitter or "photonic lantern", first described by Leon-Saval et al. (2005). Our photonic lantern is a solid all-glass version, and we show experimentally that this device can be used to achieve efficient and reversible coupling between a MM fiber and a number of SM fibers, when perfectly matched launch con...

With the development of times and science technology, traditional form flower drum lantern art has been impacted by new media entertainment methods, is facing an unprecedented dilemma. The article first expounds value digital animation to dissemination Huagu Lantern, then analyzes ideas integration Lantern animation, finally proposes strategy using spread Bengbu Lantern.

The glacier lanternfish Benthosema glaciale is a key myctophid with wide distribution in the northern Atlantic. It species that has strong vertical migration capacity and have potential to move between surface waters mesopelagic depths diel cycle (DVM), mainly depending on ambient light conditions. We investigated feeding ecology of B. across Norwegian, Iceland, Irminger Labrador Sea basins. An...

An important aspect of population dynamics for coral reef fishes is the input of new individuals from the pelagic larval pool. However, the high biodiversity and the difficulty of identifying larvae of closely related species represent obstacles to more fully understanding these populations. In this study, we combined morphology and genetic barcoding (Cytochrome Oxidase I gene) to characterize ...

The Pico Lantern is proposed as a new tool for guidance in laparoscopic surgery. Its miniaturized design allows it to be picked up by a laparoscopic tool during surgery and tracked directly by the endoscope. By using laser projection, different patterns and annotations can be projected onto the tissue surface. The first explored application is surface reconstruction. The absolute error for surf...
