The aim of this white paper is to discuss the observing strategies for the LSST Wide-Fast-Deep that would improve the study of blazars (emission variability, census, environment) and Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs). For blazars, these include the…
This paper discusses a fast algorithm for analyzing the phases of a multi-tone phase calibration signal. The multi-tone method is superior to its single-tone counterpart. The PCal signal is a wide-band frequency comb derived from an…
Structured illumination can reject out-of-focus signal from a sample, enabling high-speed and high-contrast imaging over large areas with widefield detection optics. Currently, this optical-sectioning technique is limited by image…
We introduce the Fast Holographic Deconvolution method for analyzing interferometric radio data. Our new method is an extension of A-projection/software-holography/forward modeling analysis techniques and shares their precision…
Visible light communication (VLC), which uses LEDs for both illumination and communication purposes, has recently emerged as either an alternative or a support system for radio frequency (RF) communication. VLC channel inside a room is…
A visible light communication (VLC) system can adopt multi-color light emitting diode (LED) arrays to support multiple users. In this paper, a multi-layer coding and constrained partial group decoding (CPGD) method is proposed to tackle…
Photometric instruments operating at far infrared to millimetre wavelengths often have broad spectral passbands (central wavelength/bandwidth ~ 3 or less), especially those operating in space. A broad passband can result in significant…
Hyperspectral imaging aims at providing information on both the spatial and the spectral distribution of light, with high resolution. However, state-of-the-art protocols are characterized by an intrinsic trade-off imposing to sacrifice…
This work proposes a novel adaptive background compensation scheme for frequency interleaved digital-to-analog converters (FI-DACs). The technique is applicable to high speed digital transceivers such as those used in coherent optical…
We report methods for correcting the photoluminescence emission and excitation spectra of highly absorbing samples for re-absorption and inner filter effects. We derive the general form of the correction, and investigate various methods for…
Precision pulsar timing requires optimization against measurement errors and astrophysical variance from the neutron stars themselves and the interstellar medium. We investigate optimization of arrival time precision as a function of radio…
Digital data transfer can be protected by means of suitable error correcting codes. Among the families of state-of-the-art codes, LDPC (Low Density Parity-Check) codes have received a great deal of attention recently, because of their…
The design of block codes for short information blocks (e.g., a thousand or less information bits) is an open research problem that is gaining relevance thanks to emerging applications in wireless communication networks. In this paper, we…
Consumer cameras, particularly onboard smartphones and UAVs, are now commonly used as scientific instruments. However, their data processing pipelines are not optimized for quantitative radiometry and their calibration is more complex than…
High finesse frequency combs (HFC) with large ratio of the frequency spacing to the width of the spectral components have demonstrated remarkable results in many applications such as precision spectroscopy and metrology. We found that low…
We propose a hybrid protocol combining a rectangular error-correcting code - paired with an error-detecting code - and a backward error correction in order to send packages of information over a noisy channel. We depict a linear-time…
Calibrating telescope data is one of the most important issues an observer faces. In this chapter we describe a number of the methods which are commonly used to calibrate radio telescope data in the centimeter wavelength regime. This…
Polar codes are capacity-achieving error-correcting codes with an explicit construction that can be decoded with low-complexity algorithms. In this work, we show how the state-of-the-art low-complexity decoding algorithm can be improved to…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are highly dispersed and probably extragalactic radio flashes with millisecond-duration. Recently, the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (using the CHIME/FRB instrument) has reported detections of 13…
This paper reviews the potential channel decoding techniques for ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC). URLLC is renowned for its stringent requirements including ultra-reliability, low end-to-end transmission latency, and…
