From typical metrology parameters for common wireless and microwave components to the implementation of measurement benches, this introduction to metrology contains all the key information on the subject. Using it, readers will be able to: • Interpret and measure most of the parameters described in a microwave component's datasheet...

Approximation methods are of vital importance in many challenging applications from computational science and engineering. This book collects papers from world experts in a broad variety of relevant applications of approximation theory, including pattern recognition and machine learning, multiscale modelling of fluid flow, metrology,...

The field of ultrafast nonlinear optics is broad and multidisciplinary, and encompasses areas concerned with both the generation and measurement of ultrashort pulses of light, as well as those concerned with the applications of such pulses. Ultrashort pulses are extreme events – both in terms of their durations, and also the high peak...

Today the cost of solid-state two-dimensional imagers has dramatically dropped, introducing low cost systems on the market suitable for a variety of applications, including both industrial and consumer products. However, these systems can capture only a two-dimensional projection (2D), or intensity map, of the scene under observation, losing...

Together the book and CD-ROM form a learning system that provides both investigative studies and the visualization of complex processes. A didactic concept is undertaken for microelectronics, computer technology and communication engineering, which deals with the visualization of signals and processes in addition to graphical programming of...

This book presents recent state of advances in mechatronics presented...
