This book provides a comprehensive introduction into cryptography and the current state of the art. It starts with an overview about cryptography as a field of study and the various unkeyed, secret key, and public key cryptosystems that are available, and it then delves more deeply into the technical details of the systems. The goal …
This book is intended to be a practical guide for students, engineers, and researchers in electromagnetics with minimal background in machine learning. The book contains 9 chapters and is broken into two main parts. Part I contains the first five chapters that cover the theoretical principles of the most common machine learning architectures and algorithms …
The satellite communication landscape is evolving. The traditional services are not sustaining the growth that the space industry is used to, and new services are showing new promises. Broadband access is such an area encompassing two main applications, namely fixed broadband and mobile broadband. In these days where economics are becoming the deciding factor in …

The …
We have assembled 20-plus years of knowledge into these pages. Starting with a historical background, this book covers: (a) PCB materials (copper and dielectrics) and the role they play in the heating and cooling of traces; (b) The IPC curves found in IPC 2152 along with equations and simulations that fit those curves; (c) Sensitivity …
Waves, either electromagnetic (EM) or acoustic (AC) interact with objects and scatter. The addition of incident and scattered fields form the total fields. Scattered fields include (but not limited with) reflections, refractions, and diffractions. This book is about diffraction modeling and simulation. Scattering has gained much attention because of the increase of wireless communication in …
Information Based Sensor Management (IBSM) was briefly described in an earlier posting, but the question arises as to what are the criteria which led to this inevitable approach to sensor management. That is, how do you architect the noncommensurate elements of IBSM while satisfying competing mission goals. We present here a brief synopsis of an …
Recently, I have seen many more discussions about cybersecurity breaches. Could this be down to many more people working from home? Or is expected due to the increase of technology in our day-to-day lives? Or both? This Forbes article from 2018 – https://www.forbes.com/sites/sallypercy/2018/11/27/the-top-three-business-priorities-for-leaders-over-the-next-three-years/?sh=26358f834ec9 – said that companies would be making cybersecurity and big data one …
