Reliability And Robustness

The majority of 3G mobile phones have an integrated GPS chip enabling them to calculate a navigation solution. But to deliver continuous and accurate location information, the satellite tracking process has to be stable and reliable. This is still challenging, for example, in heavy multipath and non-line of sight (NLOS) environments. New families of Galileo and GPS navigation signals, such as Alternate Binary Offset Carrier (AltBOC), Composite Binary Offset Carrier (CBOC), and Time-Multiplex Binary Offset Carrier (TMBOC), will bring potential improvements in the pseudorange calculation, including more signal power, better multipath mitigation capabilities, and overall more robust navigation. However, GNSS signal tracking strategies have to be more advanced in order to profit from the enhanced properties of the new signals.In this paper, a tracking algorithm designed for Galileo E1 CBOC signal that consists of two steps, coarse and fine, with different tracking parameters in each step, is presented and analyzed with respect to tracking accuracy, sensitivity and robustness. The aim of this paper is therefore to provide a full theoretical analysis of the proposed two-step tracking algorithm for Galileo E1 CBOC signals, as well as to confirm the results through simulations as well as using real Galileo satellite data.

Heterogeneous catalysts can be of varying complexity ranging from single or double phase systems to complicated mixtures of metals and oxides with additives to help promote chemical reactions, extend the life of the catalysts, prevent poisoning etc. Although catalysis occurs on the surface of most systems, detailed descriptions of the microstructure and chemistry of catalysts can be helpful for developing an understanding of the mechanism by which a catalyst facilitates a reaction. Recent years have seen continued development and improvement of various TEM, STEM and AEM techniques for yielding information on the structure and chemistry of catalysts on the nanometer scale. Here we review some quantitative approaches to catalyst characterization that have resulted from new developments in instrumentation.HREM has been used to examine structural features of catalysts often by employing profile imaging techniques to study atomic details on the surface. Digital recording techniques employing slow-scan CCD cameras have facilitated the use of low-dose imaging in zeolite structure analysis and electron crystallography. Fig. la shows a low-dose image from SSZ-33 zeolite revealing the presence of a stacking fault.

Hypercrosslinked Polymers

Tetraphenylmethane has emerged as a recurrent building block for advanced porous materials such as COFs, PAFs and hypercrosslinked polymers. Guided by a similar design principle, we have previously synthesized shape-persistent dendrimers with tetraphenylmethane nodes and ethynylene linkers. Here we report the generality of our approach by describing new dendritic architectures built from tetraphenylmethane. First, we prepared expanded dendrimers where the tetrahedral units are bonded through larger rigid rod spacers. Among the different synthetic strategies tested, the convergent route, with alternating steps of Pd-catalyzed Sonogashira coupling and alkyne activation by removal of TMS masking groups, efficiently afforded the first- and second-generation dendrimers. A second type of compounds having a linear diyne at the core is also described. The dendrimers of generations 1-2 were also synthesized by a convergent approach, with the diyne being assembled in the last step of the synthesis by a Glaser oxidative homocoupling of the corresponding dendrons bearing a terminal alkyne at the focal point. A third-generation dendrimer was also successfully prepared by a double-phase strategy.<br>
