ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: FREE-SPACE OPTICAL COMMUNICAITONS THROUGH A FOREST CANOPY Clinton Lee Edwards‚ Master of Science‚ 2004 Thesis Directed By: Professor Christopher C. Davis‚ Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering This paper models the effects of the leaves of mature broadleaf trees on air-to-ground free-space optical (FSO) communication systems operating through the leaf canopy. Ecological radiation transfer models are considered and the concept of Leaf Area Index

Textiles are made up from natural or man-made fibres or a combination of both. “Fibres are thin‚ hair-like structures” (Blair‚ n.d: online) that are categorized into two types: long filament fibres and short staple fibres. Natural fibres are usually staple‚ whilst man-made fibres are filament‚ with the exception of silk that comes from a natural source. These raw fibres are spun to produce a long‚ continuous thread referred to as yarn‚ which is then used in a series of methods that include‚ stitching

Copper vs. fiber Everyone building a network must face this question at some point: fiber or copper wiring? For a usual home network or even a big office either one will suffice but what is the best option for you or your company. You have to take cost‚ distance of cabling‚ and bandwidth and speed into consideration when making this choice. Copper: a traditional copper wiring for a network certainly seems much cheaper on the surface. Copper wiring itself is dirt cheap at least comparatively

Refractive index measurement is actually a measurement of the speed of light in a medium. The speed of light (usually denoted by c) is 299 792 458 m/s in vacuum. In other media the speed of light is lower than this value‚ and the refractive index‚ R.I.‚ of a medium is a measure of how much the speed of light is reduced in the medium. The refractive index (n) of a medium is defined as the ratio of speed of light in vacuum (c) in to that in the medium (v) The speed of light in a medium depends on

In the play King Lear by William Shakespeare‚ the good children are disowned by their fathers‚ but they do not stop loving their fathers and they eventually come back to rescue them from their misery. Shakespeare uses characterization of Cordelia and Edgar to show how true children will always love their parents even if they are sinned against. Cordelia is disowned by her father while Edgar is forced to disown himself. Eventually they forgive their fathers and aide in their recovery from insanity

The emotional effect is heightened in King Lear with Shakespeare’s use of a subplot that mirrors the father-child relationships‚ the corruption of political power‚ and the death of the protagonist in the main plot. The subplot of Gloucester‚ Edmund‚ and Edgar in King Lear serves three main purposes. The main plot is the betrayal of King Lear by his two elder daughters‚ to whom he abdicates his power‚ during the first part of the play. The subplot is the similar story of the betrayal of the Earl

Low-Impact Fiber-Reactive Dyes The sustainability of our environment is crucial in saving the livelihood of the people and the planet. Since we are all interdependent‚ we will all have to do our part in sustaining our environment for the future. We should always be questioning and doing more about it rather than just talking or ignoring the facts. Most of us do not realize the excessive use of resources we have taken advantage of over the years. Generations past have exploited our planet which
