Traditionally, the delay margin of a looped system is computed by considering both the controller and system representations that evolve in the same space (e.g. either continuous or discrete-time). However, as in practice the system is…

There has been some interest recently in determining the longest distance one can sail for on the earth without hitting land, as well as in the converse problem of determining the longest distance one could drive for on the earth without…

In bearing only tracking using a towed array, the array can sense the bearing angle of the target but is unable to differentiate whether the target is on the left or the right side of the array. Thus, the traditional tracking algorithm…
