Because of the very high chip rate of global positioning system (GPS), P-code acquisition at GPS receiver will be challenging. A variety of methods for increasing the probability of detection and reducing the average time of acquisition have been provided, among which the method of Zero Padding (ZP) is the most essential and the most widely used. The method using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT...

A novel approach to image super-resolution is described in this paper. By modeling our image acquisition system with a Spline sampling kernel, we are able to retrieve from the samples some statistical information about the observed continuous scene before its acquisition (irradiance light-field). This information, called continuous moments, allows to register exactly a set of low-resolution ima...

This study evaluated the feasibility of assessing continuous strain distributions on fracture callus cross-sections with an electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI) system. Mid-sagittal callus cross-sections were harvested from ovine tibiae. One low stiffness (LS) specimen and one high stiffness (HS) specimen were selected to evaluate the feasibility for strain acquisition over a range ...

Developed an integrated intellectual computerized system of ecological-economic monitoring, modeling, and managing the life cycle of the products of technogenic enterprises of transport engineering, which is presented in the form of a 3-equation structure, functioning in conditions of instability. The proposed paradigm system life cycle management applicable to any other control system of large...

one of the most controversial and unresolved questions in bilingual first language acquisition (henceforth bfla) is whether bilingual children develop one mixed or two independent linguistic systems. many scholars in the lield of bfla arc in tavor of the one-system hypothesis (leopold 1970; swain and wesche, 1975; volterra and tacschner, j 987; grosjean, 1982; tacschncr, 1983: mclaughlin, 1984:...
