An FM Chirp Waveform Generator and Detector for Radar: Sawtooth Generator and FM Detector

The "FM Chirp Waveform Generator and Detector for Radar" is a Bachelor graduation project with an educational purpose. In this thesis, two modules of the whole system are designed and simulated. In particular, the sawtooth generator and the FM detector. The sawtooth generator is used to generate a linearly increasing signal, which can be used to...

3D Modeling of a foreland fold and thrust basin in the French sub-Alpine chains

A three-dimensional geological model has been constructed of a 49 square km area in the sub-Alpine chains in the French Drôme department. The area was situated in the Vocontian Basin, which was an epicontinental sea situated at the western margin of the Alpine Tethys Ocean, between former continents of Gondwana and Laurasia. Formations of...

Validation of models for use in localisation

Underwater robotics face an interesting challenge. Since electromagnetic waves barely propagate underwater, systems like GPS are unusable. However, for a robot to function autonomously, it needs to be able to know its position. Because of this, using acoustic waves for transmitting signals underwater has been established to be the way forward....
