In this paper, we present a generic extension of location-based ad hoc routing protocols named Skewed Map Forwarding (SMF). SMF incorporates multipath routing into any location-based routing protocol, while preserving the stateless property of location-based protocols. It alters/distorts the view of the network topology from the routing protocol by mapping the physical coordinates of nodes to l...

− We propose a simple all-fiber structure based on intermodal interference between a core and a cladding mode of an endlessly single-mode photonic crystal fiber section sandwiched between a lead-in and lead-out SMF-28 fiber. The sensitivities to strain, pressure and temperature are measured. The interferometer is compared to an interferometer based on LP01-LP02 SMF-28 fiber and to a PCF-based t...

The test also determines a Shading Mitigation Factor (SMF) which represents the annual energy recovery of a power optimizer or microinverter system, compared to a traditional string inverter. The study found that the SolarEdge system recovered 28.3%, 21.9%, and 24.3% of energy lost by the string inverter system, with light, medium and heavy shading, respectively. These results indicate higher S...

Silybum marianum is an important medicinal plant with high antioxidant properties. Static magnetic field (SMF) is a kind of abiotic stresses which can affect growth and antioxidant capacity of medicinal plants. In this research, the effects of SMF on total phenolic and flavonoid contents, radical scavenging activity, and anatomical alterations were investigated in S. marianum seedlings. Five-da...

This paper considers the state estimation problem for nonlinear dynamic systems with unknown but bounded noises. Set membership filter (SMF) is a popular algorithm to solve this problem. In set setting, we investigate where requires be constrained by linear or equality. We propose consensus alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) based SMF systems. To deal difficulty nonlinearity, in...

This paper presents a mathematical model of the sensitive element refractometric fiber-optic sensor principle operation which is based on phenomenon surface plasmon resonance. The sensing design sequential connection multimode fiber (MMF), single-mode (SMF), and forming an MMF-SMF-MMF structure. SMF site coated with thin film gold. To element, approach used in calculating classical Kretschmann ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate six different antigenic fractions from Strongyloides venezuelensis parasitic females for the immunodiagnosis of human strongyloidiasis. Soluble and membrane fractions from S. venezuelensis parasitic females were prepared in phosphate-buffered saline (SSF and SMF, respectively), Tris-HCl (TSF and TMF, respectively), and an alkaline buffer (ASF and AMF, respe...

We report on the use of a simple interferometer built with strongly-coupled core optical fiber for accurate vibration sensing. Our multi-core fiber (MCF) is designed to mode match a standard single-mode optical fiber (SMF). The interferometer consists of a low insertion loss SMF-MCF-SMF structure where only two super-modes interfere. The polymer coating of the MCF was structured and the interfe...
