The configuration exploits a 2nd order 8-shaped self-affine structure miniaturization of the overall size of each monopole element and provides wideband attributes to the antenna. The antenna exhibits an impedance bandwidth ranging from 2.6 GHz to 12 GHz, covering the entire UWB spectrum. The two element wideband MIMO antenna is realized within a compact layout of 32.3 mm×36.2 mm=1169.3 mm2. The isolation among the pair of planar monopoles with 2nd order Koch fractal boundary is found to be > −20 dB throughout the UWB spectrum even with a marginal inter-element spacing of 9.55 mm. The wideband isolation enhancement is also attained as a result of an extended ground stub with Koch fractal boundary. Moreover, the envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) of the UWB MIMO antenna is calculated to be < 0.01. The concurrence admits the diverse simulation results verify that the proposed arrangement can be a worthy competitor for handy UWB as well as UWB MIMO systems.","PeriodicalId":344816,"journal":{"name":"2021 2nd International Conference on Range Technology (ICORT)","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115252305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, using time difference of arrival (TDOA) and Frequency difference of arrival (FDOA) techniques, telemetry stations can be used as an additional resource for position determination. Due to the non-linear measurement equation, the standard Kalman filter could not be used for improving the precision. This paper demonstrates the use of an extended Kalman filter for the performance evaluation of TDOA and FDOA schemes using non-collinearly located stationary receiver stations with their positions known. The effect of variance of measurement noise and the effect of the number of receiver stations is simulated using Matlab. From the simulation results, it is evident that the FDOA technique is more sensitive as compared to the TDOA technique.","PeriodicalId":344816,"journal":{"name":"2021 2nd International Conference on Range Technology (ICORT)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132611016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing conventional methods to find out the true north consume more time and resources with poor accuracy which is not preferable during wartime as well as in online data monitoring scenarios. To overcome such problems, a MEMS-based gyroscope is one of the potential tools to assist in determining the true north with limited resources and a short period with high accuracy. In this paper, the design of a single mass MEMS gyroscope is proposed in which a comb drive operated with electrostatic force is used with a differential capacitance sensing mechanism. Simulation of the proposed design is performed using IntelliSuite 8.9 MEMS software tool. The analytical results have been compared with the simulation output for sensitivity analysis. To improve the sensitivity of the device for the true north finding application of radar, the resonance frequency mismatch in the drive and sense mode has been optimized.","PeriodicalId":344816,"journal":{"name":"2021 2nd International Conference on Range Technology (ICORT)","volume":"222 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115657216","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
