A novel Information sharing model using binary decision diagrams for redundancy, shadowing, generalisation and correlation. (2013)
Preprint / Working Paper
Uthmani, O., Buchanan, W. J., Fan, L., & Lawson, A. A novel Information sharing model using binary decision diagrams for redundancy, shadowing, generalisation and correlation

This paper outlines a novel information sharing method using Binary Decision Diagrams (BBDs). It is inspired by the work of Al-Shaer and Hamed, who applied BDDs into the modelling of network firewalls. This is applied into an information sharing poli...

An FE adjustment of a waveguide turnstile junction circulator using a three quarter wavelength gyromagnetic resonator. (2012)
Preprint / Working Paper
Helszajn, J., & Sharp, J. (2012). An FE adjustment of a waveguide turnstile junction circulator using a three quarter wavelength gyromagnetic resonator

One difficulty with the design of millimetre waveguide junction circulators using quarter-wave long gyromagnetic resonators, beside that of fabrication, is the inability to realize the required gyrotropy using existing ferrite materials. This shortc... Read More about An FE adjustment of a waveguide turnstile junction circulator using a three quarter wavelength gyromagnetic resonator..
