This paper presents the implementation of Linear Frequency Modulation (LFM) pulse compression technique over acoustic waveguides at frequency range (2kHz--3kHz). The medium used for acoustic chirp propagation is air. Real time pulse compression was carried out over DSP kit (TMS320C6713). The obtained range from the compressed pulse accedes to the actual range of the target (sound source). The s...

We present a method for efficiently exciting a Bragg soliton with a spectral content located mostly within the bandgap of a one-dimensional periodic structure. The method is based on a new interaction between Bragg solitons and on a high intensity enhancement, caused owing to the reduced propagation velocity inside periodic structures. Our method can also be used for efficient compression of op...

As lasers become progressively higher in power, optical damage thresholds will become a limiting factor. Using the nonlinear optics of plasma may be a way to circumvent these limits. Here, we present a new self-compression mechanism for high-power, femtosecond laser pulses based on geometrical focusing and three dimensional spatiotemporal reshaping in an ionizing plasma. By propagating tightly ...

The frequency spectrum of the CSF pulse wave and amplitude transfer function from arterial to CSF pressure were estimated in the lateral ventricle and cisterna magna during the course of supratentorial epidural compression of brain in anaesthetised ventilated cats. Ventricular fluid pressure, the amplitude of spectral components of the CSF pulse and the amplitude of transfer function in the sup...

Linear Frequency Modulation (LFM) waveform becomes widespread in modern pulse compression radar systems in order to improve its target range resolution capability. Conventional LFM based on varying the waveform frequency linearly within the radar pulse width which leads to high Auto Correlation Function (ACF) with limited compression ratio (CR) and side lobe level (SLL). This paper proposed Opt...

The use of solid-state transmitters is becoming increasingly viable for atmospheric radars and is a key part of the strategy to realize any dense network of low-powered radars. However, solid-state transmitters have low peak powers and this necessitates the use of pulse compression waveforms. In this paper frequency diversity in a wideband waveform design is proposed to mitigate the low sensiti...

Assessing the biomechanical properties of soft tissue provides clinically valuable information to supplement conventional structural imaging. In the previous studies, we introduced a dynamic elastography technique based on phase-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PhS-OCT) to characterize submillimetric structures such as skin layers or ocular tissues. Here, we propose to implement a pulse ...
