Michelle Pirrone, Keith Forsyth, Jordan Bernhardt, Dan Kuester, Aric Sanders, Duncan McGillivray, Adam Wunderlich
The proliferation of communication devices and systems has led to increasingly complex and dynamic spectral environments. This greatly impacts the operations of a multitude of organizations, including commercial entities, academic and non-commercial

Electrical and Electroluminescence Evaluation of 17 Year Old Monocrystalline Silicon Building Integrated Photovoltaic Modules

December 25, 2023
Author(s)
Andrew Shore, Tali Schlenoff, Bakary Coulibaly, David Navon, Stephanie Moffitt, Brian P. Dougherty, Behrang Hamadani
Longterm reliable operation of photovoltaic modules is necessary to ensure the technology is key to reducing the cost of solar energy. However, degradation mechanisms in the field are not always consistent or predictable. We present a dataset of 72

Intra-grain local luminescence properties of CdSe0.1Te0.9 Thin Films

December 25, 2023
Author(s)
Ganga Neupane, Behrang Hamadani, David Albin, Joel Duenow, Matthew Reese, Susanna Thon
We report on the local photoluminescence properties of grains and grain boundaries of CdSe0.1Te0.9 thin film deposited by the colossal grain growth method using a wide-field hyperspectral imaging technique. We observed significant variations in the

System-Level Evaluation of 5G NR UE-Based Relays

December 25, 2023
Author(s)
Samantha Gamboa Quintiliani, Aziza Ben Mosbah, Wesley Garey, Chunmei Liu, Richard A. Rouil
The notion of UE-based relays started with the introduction of Proximity Services (ProSe) and Device-to-Device (D2D) communication, and evolved with the adaptation of the Fifth Generation (5G) New Radio (NR) interface. While the main goal of relays is to

Ultra-Low Phase Noise Frequency Division with Array of Direct Digital Synthesizers

December 25, 2023
Author(s)
Marco Pomponio, Archita Hati, Craig Nelson
In this article, we present a four-channel direct digital synthesis (DDS) design that operates with a common clock ranging from 500 MHz to 24 GHz and generates output frequencies up to 1.75 GHz. A key feature of this board is its custom field-programmable

Cybersecurity of Genomic Data
