Point-to-multipoint (P2MP) transceivers offer a promising solution to transform present point-to-point optical access networks into scalable and flexible P2MP networks capable of dynamically meetin…
Negative curvature hollow core fiber (NC-HCF) with elliptical tubes is beneficial for low confinement loss (CL) due to the rich degree of freedom in tube curvature. In this paper, an empirical form…
We study a new service network design problem for an urban same-day delivery system in which the number of vehicles that can simultaneously load or unload at a hub is limited. Due to the presence o…
In this article we report a microwave photonics fiber loop ringdown (MWP-FLRD) interrogated fiber-optic sensor with enhanced sensitivity. A section of a single-mode fiber in the fiber loop is macro…
Simultaneously increasing the sensitivity and dynamic range of an optical fiber sensor is desired and yet challenging. In this article, we demonstrate an optical fiber curvature sensor based on a n…
The online trading platform Alibaba provides financial technology (FinTech) credit for millions of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs). Using a novel data set of daily sales and an i…
A fully numerical method for designing efficient adiabatic mode evolution structure (AMES) (referred to as NAMES) is introduced, which can be applied to adiabatic taper, coupler, splitter, mode con…
Knowing how small a violation of stochastic dominance rules would be accepted by most individuals is a prerequisite to applying almost stochastic dominance criteria. Unlike previous laboratory-expe…
Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is a promising technology for enabling cellu-lar-connected unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communications in the future. Equipped with full-dimensional l…
