The probability hypothesis density (PHD) filter suffers from lack of precise estimation of the expected number of targets. The Cardinalized PHD (CPHD) recursion, as a generalization of the PHD recursion, remedies this flaw and simultaneously propagates the intensity function and the posterior cardinality distribution. While there are a few new approaches to enhance the Sequential Monte Carlo (S...

against the range-dependent accuracy of the tracking radar measurements including range, elevation and bearing angles, a new hybrid adaptive kalman filter is proposed to enhance the performance of the radar aided strapdown inertial navigation system (ins/radar). this filter involves the concept of residual-based adaptive estimation and adaptive fading kalman filter and tunes dynamically the fil...

With the introduction of distributed generators (DG), the traditional distribution system characterized by radical network becomes a multi-source one. Therefore the accuracy of the equivalent model of distributed generators directly affects the precision of fault location. To solve this problem, this paper proposed a fault location method based on complex correlation Thevenin equivalent and str...

introduction:  the  purpose  of  this  study  is  to  define  the  optimal  parameters  for  the  tomographic  reconstruction procedure in a routine single photon emission tomography. the hoffman brain phantom  is modified to evaluate the reconstruction method. the phantom was imaged in a 3 and 2-dimensional  conformation and the results were compared.   materials  and  methods:  the  2d  phant...

Background: Hemodialysis is a process of removing waste and excess fluid from blood when kidneys cannot function efficiently. It often involves diverting blood to the filter of the dialysis machin to be cleared of toxic substances. Fouling of pores in dialysis membrane caused by adhesion of plasma protein and other toxins will reduce the efficacy of the filtre.Objective: In This study, the infl...

This paper presents the design and a new low-cost process for fabrication of a second-order micromechanical filter using UV-LIGA technology. The micromechanical filter consists of two identical bulk-mode ring resonators, mechanically coupled by a flexural-mode beam. A new lumped modeling approach is presented for the bulk-mode ring resonators and filter. The validity of the analytical derivatio...

one of the problems in the ground-based circular synthetic aperture radar is the dependence of the azimuth resolution to the antenna rotation radius and operational limitation of increasing it. to enhance the image quality in azimuth, model-based image formation through three methods: matched filter, inverse filter and optimum filter is suggested and analyzed. for the purpose of comparison, thr...
