Real-Time IR Intensity Measurement and Computation for Systems
Abstract: In contemporary defense mechanisms, infrared (IR) sensing has become a fundamental technology for identifying and neutralizing heat-seeking threats, especially concerning aircraft protection. Conventional IR detection systems, such as single-channel radiometers and basic thermal sensors, frequently face restrictions due to low spatial resolution, sluggish data processing, and inadequate user engagement. These constraints can impede the prompt identification of dangers like missile launches or flare activations, potentially endangering mission safety. Additionally, numerous …

Multi-way Protection Scheme to Handle Multiple Failures for Cost-Efficient Fiber-Wireless (FiWi) Access Networks
Abstract: AbstractFiber Wireless (FiWi) access networks prove themselves as promising broadband access networks. These networks enable users to access services in “Anywhere-Anytime” fashion. FiWi networks offer higher bandwidth and better flexibility at much lower price than passive optical network. As FiWi supports high data rate (typically about Gigabits per second), any failure may results in huge data loss. Therefore, to protect such loss of data, we need to design a more …

Management of Uterine Sarcomas - Current Concepts and Controversies
Abstract: Uterine sarcomas are a group of relatively rare malignancies with heterologous clinical behavior. Because of its rarity, there is dearth of randomized trials and hence there are no standard recommendations as how to manage these cases. Carcinosarcomas are now a separate entity and is managed similar to high grade endometrial carcinoma, since the sarcomatous element is proven to be of endometrial origin. Now, the major variants are leomyosarcoma (LMS), endometrial …
