Conventional thermal emitters, such as a blackbody or the incandescent filament of a light bulb, lack the directionality or narrow linewidth required in many applications such as thermophotovoltaics and infrared Work Gloves sensing.Although thermal emission from bulk materials is well understood based on phenomenological heat transfer concepts like
In this paper, we analyze an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that harvests energy from a power beacon to support the transmissions of finite blocklength packets from a source to two destinations using non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) scheme.The impacts of Home Decor line-of-sight (LoS) and non-LoS communications on the block error rate (BLER) an
The biotic integrity of streams is frequently compromised by anthropogenic disturbance; thus, it is important to study the potential mitigating effects of undisturbed riparian zones on streams within disturbed watersheds.In this study, two first-order northern Michigan streams located 1 km apart in adjacent agricultural watersheds, but with differi
Packet routing is a fundamental problem in wireless networks in which routers decide the next hop for each packet in order to deliver it to its destination as quickly as possible.In order to overcome the shortcoming of non optimal forwarding path caused by fixed forwarding mode in geographic location-based routing algorithm, we investigated a new e
The worldwide pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become an unprecedented challenge to global public health.With the intensification of the COVID-19 epidemic, the development of vaccines and therapeutic drugs against the etiological agent severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is also widespread.To prove the ef
