Abstract:
A passive optical network (PON) is a point-to-multipoint, fiber to the premises network architecture in which unpowered optical splitters utilizing Brewster's angle principles are used to enable a single optical fiber to serve multiple premises, typically 32-128. A PON consists of an optical line terminal (OLT) at the service provider's central office and a number of optical network units (ONUs) near end users. A PON configuration reduces the amount of fiber and central office equipment required compared with point to point architect ....etc

Stereoscopic Passive Millimeter-Wave Imaging and Ranging

Thomas L thi and Christian M tzler, Senior Member, IEE


Abstract

This paper presents the first stereoscopic range measurements
at a wavelength of 3.3 mmand discusses the accuracy of
this new method. The synthesis of passive millimeter-wave imaging
and stereoscopy combines the advantages of both principles, naturally
looking high-contrast images and superior poor-weather performance
(compared to visible and infrared wavelengths), as well
as the pas ....etc

Locally Adaptive Passive Error Concealment
for Wavelet Coded Images

Joost Rombaut, Aleksandra Pi zurica, Member, IEE, and Wilfried Philips, Member, IEE



Abstract

This letter presents a novel locally adaptive error concealment
method for subband coded images. For each lost low-frequency
coefficient, we estimate the optimal interpolation weights
from its neighborhood. The calculation of the interpolation weights
is optimized in the mean squared error sense, and it takes into account
the error ....etc

ABSTRACT
Miniaturization has been a key contributor to advances in electronic technology. Many electronics applications have serious space considerations that are pressuring manufacturers to reduce component size. Much of the motivation for this Certainly, miniaturization has been made possible mostly through remarkable breakthroughs in reducing the size of active components. But as integrated circuits get smaller and more complex, there is an increasing need to also reduce the space required for the supporting passive compo ....etc

Active and Passive Voice


In the active voice, the subject of the sentence performs the action:
I aced the exam.
Subject/actor verb object/thing acted on
In the passive voice, the object of the action becomes the subject of the sentence, and
the actor appears in a prepositional phrase, or is absent from the sentence:
The exam was aced (by me).
Subject verb actor/object of prepositional phrase
Use the active voice when the actor s identity is important.
Active: The butler did it. ....etc

Passive Visual Fingerprinting of Network Attack Tools


RELATED WORK
The primary contributions of this work include the
demonstration of the efficacy of fingerprinting common
attack tools, the ability to provide rapid insight into the
attacker s operating system type and the possible
lineage of the code in use, the ability to detect some
classes of stealthy attacks and the ability to detect slow
scans despite the visual noise of legitimate traffic

Abstract
A Gigabit Ethernet passive optical network (GE-PON)
The GE-PON includes an optical line terminal (OLT), a plurality of optical couplers, and a plurality of optical network units (ONUs). The OLT sets up an active page link and a standby page link in response to a registration request message received over an optical cable. Each of the ONUs is doubly connected with the OLT via the optical cable and is adapted to transmit the registration request message to the OLT, form the active page link with the OLT via the optical cable if it rec ....etc

INTRODUCTION

Miniaturization has been a key contributor to advances in electronic technology. Certainly, miniaturization has been made possible mostly through remarkable breakthroughs in reducing the size of active components. But as integrated circuits get smaller and more complex, there is an increasing need to also reduce the space required for the supporting passive components. If any of the electronic devices such as cellphone, camcorder, computer, or other consumer electronics system is opened, one or two circuit boards on which are mo ....etc

In passive solar building design, windows, walls, and floors are made to collect, store, and distribute solar energy in the form of heat in the winter and reject solar heat in the summer. This is called passive solar design because, unlike active solar heating systems, it does not involve the use of mechanical and electrical devices.

The key to design a passive solar building is to best take advantage of the local climate performing an accurate site analysis. Elements to be considered include window placement and size, and glazing type, the ....etc
