  2. 2. Millimeter-Wave Photonics: Signal Sources and Transmission Links

    Author : Andreas Wiberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; microwave photonics; mm-wave generation; radio over fiber; photonic frequency multiplication; millimeter-wave photonics; millimeter-waves; millimeter-wave communication system;

    Abstract : With the use of higher and higher frequencies in a number of current and future wireless millimeter-wave applications it is beneficial to use photonics for several reasons. The use of optical fibers is an advantageous way to transport millimeter-waves in terms of loss, mechanical flexibility, weight, and insensitivity to electromagnetic interference. READ MORE

  3. 3. Applications of monolithic fiber interferometers and actively controlled fibers

    Author : Patrik Rugeland; Fredrik Laurell; Walter Margulis; Miguel Andrés; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fiber; fiber Bragg grating; micro-structured fiber; add drop multiplexer; fiber interferometer; microwave photonics; temperature sensor;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis was to develop applications of monolithic fiber devices and actively controlled fibers.

    Abstract : Industrial innovation is mostly driven by miniaturization. As a result of remarkable technological advancements in the fields of equipment, materials and production processes, transistor, the fundamental active component in conventional electronics, has shrunk in size. READ MORE

  5. 5. Navigation and Mapping for Aerial Vehicles Based on Inertial and Imaging Sensors

    Author : Zoran Sjanic; Fredrik Gustafsson; Thomas Schön; Fulvio Gini; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Small and medium sized Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) are today used in military missions, and will in the future find many new application areas such as surveillance for exploration and security. To enable all these foreseen applications, the UAV's have to be cheap and of low weight, which restrict the sensors that can be used for navigation and surveillance. READ MORE
