Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theoretical resolution of a multiple mirror telescope can be studied through its Modulation Transfer Function (MTF). Using the figure of merit that the mirrors be moved apart in a manner that would maximize the spatial frequency at which the first zero appears in the MTF, this thesis studied the use of MTF information from multiple wavelengths to delay the appearance of an interior zero in the overall MTF. This would allow the mirrors to be moved further apart and thereby increase the frequency at which the first zero appears in the MTF, increasing the resolving capability of the system. Symmetrical configurations from three to six mirrors were studied. Each configuration was initially manually optimized at three microns, then the system was studied at a three to five micron range to see if the MTF information from other wavelengths would delay the appearance of an interior zero in the overall system MTF, thus allowing an increase in the distance between mirrors. An optimization routine was also employed to see if there were other, nonsymmetrical, mirror configurations that could possibly yield a better theoretical resolution than their symmetrical counterparts. Keywords: Multiaperture, Synthetic Aperture, Incoherent Imaging. (AW).
Download or read book Incoherent Multiple Aperture Optical Imaging Systems Analysis and Design written by Robert T. Reilander and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Various multiple aperture optical arrays were compared while imaging objects illuminated with incoherent light. The aperture arrays contained from one to four sub-apertures. The objects were edges, slits, rectangles and circles. An emphasis was placed on edge resolution, and the author derived his own set of resolution criteria. Based on this analysis, a tight square four-element array was the best performer. The study concluded with an analysis of design criteria for optimum incoherent imaging resolution. Max sub-aperture size, min sub-aperture spacing, max number of sub-aperture elements, and a symmetric pattern were all determined to be desirable in order to obtain the best performance.

Download or read book Connected Media in the Future Internet Era written by Ahmet Kondoz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-08 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes recent innovations in 3D media and technologies, with coverage of 3D media capturing, processing, encoding, and adaptation, networking aspects for 3D Media, and quality of user experience (QoE). The contributions are based on the results of the FP7 European Project ROMEO, which focuses on new methods for the compression and delivery of 3D multi-view video and spatial audio, as well as the optimization of networking and compression jointly across the future Internet. The delivery of 3D media to individual users remains a highly challenging problem due to the large amount of data involved, diverse network characteristics and user terminal requirements, as well as the user’s context such as their preferences and location. As the number of visual views increases, current systems will struggle to meet the demanding requirements in terms of delivery of consistent video quality to fixed and mobile users. ROMEO will present hybrid networking solutions that combine the DVB-T2 and DVB-NGH broadcast access network technologies together with a QoE aware Peer-to-Peer (P2P) distribution system that operates over wired and wireless links. Live streaming 3D media needs to be received by collaborating users at the same time or with imperceptible delay to enable them to watch together while exchanging comments as if they were all in the same location. This book is the last of a series of three annual volumes devoted to the latest results of the FP7 European Project ROMEO. The present volume provides state-of-the-art information on 3D multi-view video, spatial audio networking protocols for 3D media, P2P 3D media streaming, and 3D Media delivery across heterogeneous wireless networks among other topics. Graduate students and professionals in electrical engineering and computer science with an interest in 3D Future Internet Media will find this volume to be essential reading.

This book was released on 2006-11-22 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are wide-ranging implications in information security beyond national defense. Securing our information has implications for virtually all aspects of our lives, including protecting the privacy of our ?nancial transactions and medical records, facilitating all operations of government, maintaining the integrity of national borders, securing important facilities, ensuring the safety of our food and commercial products, protecting the safety of our aviation system—even safeguarding the integrity of our very identity against theft. Information security is a vital element in all of these activities, particularly as information collection and distribution become ever more connected through electronic information delivery systems and commerce. This book encompasses results of research investigation and technologies that can be used to secure, protect, verify, and authenticate objects and inf- mation from theft, counterfeiting, and manipulation by unauthorized persons and agencies. The book has drawn on the diverse expertise in optical sciences and engineering, digital image processing, imaging systems, information p- cessing, mathematical algorithms, quantum optics, computer-based infor- tion systems, sensors, detectors, and biometrics to report novel technologies that can be applied to information-security issues. The book is unique because it has diverse contributions from the ?eld of optics, which is a new emerging technology for security, and digital techniques that are very accessible and can be interfaced with optics to produce highly e?ective security systems.
