In this paper, an encrypted three-dimensional (3D) trellis-coded modulation (TCM) based on mapping by set-partitioning (MSP) of 3D constellation is proposed, for highly reliable and secure short-re…
Polarization devices on lithium niobate thin film (LNTF) are vital components for photonic integrated circuits (PICs) on the novel platform. Because both linear and nonlinear devices on the anisotr…
In an unbalanced interferometer, the phase noise level is positively related to the optical path length difference (OPD) and the wavelength instability of the light source. The effective current so…
The air-ground integrated sensing and communications (AG-ISAC) network, which consists of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and ground terrestrial networks, offers unique capabilities and demands spe…
Heterogeneity plays an important role in cancer genesis and progression. In this paper, we theoretically and computationally show that the increase of heterogeneity signals predeterioration during …
This article develops new tools to quantify uncertainty in optimal decision making and to gain insight into which variables one should collect information about given the potential cost of measurin…
This paper derives analytic expressions for the expected value of sample information (EVSI), the expected value of distribution information, and the optimal sample size when data consists of indepe…
In the daily dispatching of last-mile urban delivery, a delivery manager has to consider workload balance among couriers to maintain workforce morale. We consider two types of workload: incentive w…
Interrogating a remote passive-sensor with high fidelity is one of the biggest challenges in the sensing domain. Recently, random fiber laser (RFL) combined with remote fiber sensors was proposed f…
Random fiber lasers (RFLs) can generate flexible near-infrared lasing wavelengths with high power/high efficiency in simple configurations, which could be excellent candidates to realize low spatia…
