The concept of using the steering angle sensor to enhance positioning accuracy during Global Positioning System (GPS) outages is the focus of this article. This development of a GPS Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems Inertial Measurement Unit (MEMS IMU) steering angle sensor vehicular positioning system is discussed in detail including the error dynamics and measurement models as well as integrat...

Quantitative verification is an established automated technique that can ensure predictability and dependability of software systems which exhibit probabilistic behaviour. Since offline usage of quantitative verification is infeasible for large-scale complex systems that continuously adapt to the changing environment, quantitative runtimeverification was proposed as an alternative. Using an ill...

A recursive Bayesian approach to narrowband beamforming for an uncertain steering vector of interest signal is presented. In this paper, the interference-plus-noise covariance matrix and signal power are assumed to be known. The steering vector is modeled as a complex Gaussian random vector that characterizes the level of steering vector uncertainty. Applying the Bayesian model, a recursive alg...

The minimum power distortionless response beamformer has a good interference rejection capability, but the desired signal will be suppressed if signal steering vector or data covariance matrix is not precise. The worst-case performance optimization-based robust adaptive beamformer (WCB) has been developed to solve this problem. However, the solution of WCB cannot be expressed in a closed form, ...

Some blind beamformers require the direction of the desired signal. The performance of such type beam-formers can be severely degraded by a small directional error. In this paper, we propose a blind beamforming scheme robust to directional error by employing a simple steering vector estimator. The performance of the proposed beamformer can be further improved by re-initializing the weights of t...

This thesis challenges the traditional view of treating steering behaviour as a tracking task, instead treating it as a reaching task. Here, reaching refers to a fundamental human behaviour with the the intriguing characteristic of having a linear relationship between maximum speed and distance, effectively making the movement time constant. Historically, by contrast, human steering behaviour h...

we put forward and demonstrate a steerable optical beam visible light communication (VLC) system combining orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) schemes, utilizing spatial modulator (SLM)-based reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) for steering. When the SLM as RIS steering, its operation principle, maximum achievable steering angle (i.e. fie...
