The simulation results demonstrate that the linewidth of external-cavity semiconductor lasers can be reduced by increasing the external cavity length and feedback ratio, and adding more external feedback points can further narrow the linewidth and enhance the side mode suppression ratio. This research provides insight into the external cavity distributed feedback mechanism and can guide the design of high-performance external cavity semiconductor lasers. .展开更多

In this paper, multi-step families of quadrature based iterative methods for approximating the solution of nonlinear system of equations with singular Jacobian are developed using decomposition technique. The methods proposed in this study are of convergence order , and require only the evaluation of first-order Frechet derivative per iteration. The approximate solutions generated by the proposed iterative methods in this paper compared with some existing contemporary methods in literature, show that methods developed herein are efficient and adequate in approximating the solution of nonlinear system of equations whose Jacobians are singular and non-singular at iteration points.展开更多

The sonomorphological findings were grouped according to a five-part classification scheme.RESULTS: Application of the new classification resulted in the following distribution of sonomorphological patterns among the patients examined: hailstorm(54.1%); pseudocystic(13.5%); ossification(13.0%); hemangioma-like(8.1%); and metastasis-like(6.5%). Only 4.9% of lesions could not be assigned to a sonomorphological pattern.CONCLUSION: The sonomorphological classification proposed in the present study facilitates the diagnosis,interpretation and comparison of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis in routine practice and in the context of scientific studies.展开更多

One of the major challenges in mobile IoT is an efficient vertical handover decision (VHD) technique between heterogenous networks for seamless connectivity with constrained resources. The conventional VHD approach is mainly based on received signal strength (RSS). The approach is inefficient for vertical handover, since it always selects the target network with the strongest signal without taking into consideration of factors such as quality of service (QoS), cost, delay, etc. In this paper, we present a hybrid approach by integrating the multi-cri- teria based VHD (MCVHD) technique and an algorithm based on fuzzy logic for efficient VHD among Wi-Fi, Radio and Satellite networks. The MCVHD provides a lightweight solution that aims to achieving seamless connectivity for mobile IoT Edge Gateway over a set of heterogeneous networks. The proposed solution is evaluated in real time using a testbed containing real IoT devices. Further, the testbed is integrated with lightweight and efficient software techniques, e.g., microservices, containers, broker, and Edge/Cloud techniques. The experimental results show that the proposed approach is suitable for an IoT environment and it outperforms the conventional RSS Quality based VHD by minimizing handover failures, unnecessary handovers, handover time and cost of service.展开更多

First, the correct detector response function, i.e., spa- tim impulse response （SIR） and acousto-electric impulse response （EIR）, is considered for the ultrasonic transducer to accurately model the acoustic measurement; second, acoustic data is only measured near optical sources with meaningful signal-to-noise ratio （SNR）, i.e., the limited-view scanning, which also reduces the data acquisition time for point trans- ducer. However, due to the incomplete limited-view data, a two-step image reconstruction method （i.e., to first reconstruct initial acoustic pressure and then reconstruct optical coef- ficients） no longer applies, since it is neither possible nor necessary to robustly reconstruct initial acoustic pressure with limited-view data. Therefore, here we propose a direct image reconstruction method that incorporates SIR, EIR and limited-view scanning in a coupled opto-acoustic forward model, regularizes the framelet sparsity, and then solves the QPAT alternating direction method of multipliers. nonlinear QPAT data fidelity with tensor problem with Quasi-Newton method based展开更多
