Zuidgeest, R.G. (author)The human operator observing the real world is confronted with a huge amount of data from multiple sensors observing that world. Multi-sensor data fusion (MSDF) is one of the emerging fields in advanced information processing, concerned with fusing sensor data from these multiple sensors. Automated MSDF can help the operator by processing sensor...report 1992

Moek, G. (author)In this report, the application of estimation theory to three problems from aerospace research is described. The applications considered deal with spacecraft attitude estimation, software reliability modelling and estimation, and with a satellite-based navigation algorithm. Maximum likelihood estimation is used in the software reliability case...report 1991

Pinches, C.L. (author), Kuijpers, E.A. (author), Spaan, F. (author)Microgravity experiments operated using telescience concepts face certain constraints. The effect of these constraints on the focusing task are identified. Four types of focusing strategy, which provide a natural means of focusing in the presence of these constraints, are described. Three specific strategies are implemented as part of the...report 1991

Kuijpers, E.A. (author)The Prototype Optical Diagnostic Instrument (PODI) has been extended to Teleoperated PODI (TelePODI) to allow for the study of telescience and image processing for microgee related instrumentation. TelePODI has been integrated in the Telescience Test Bed, phase I, at ESTEC to simulate remote control. Telescience pilot experiments have been...report 1990

Kuijpers, E.A. (author)The breadboard called PODI (Prototype Optical Diagnostic Instrument) was developed following a study for a general facility for fluid experimental research on fluid physics in a space laboratory. PODI has been developed further for the study of telescience and image processing related to microgee instrumentation. The extended breadboard called...report 1990

Blom, H.A.P. (author)Stochastic processes with a decision-directed control are considered as controlled Markov processes, the state space of which is hybrid; i.e. a product of a discrete set and a Euclidean space. This approach yields a mathematical model for many problems of decision-directed stochastic control. In general, the observations made from the "past" and...report 1990

Looyen, W.J. (author)Working with Remote Sensing data can be generalized into four categories: - registration - processing - interpretation - presentation. A short overview of these four categories will be given. Emphasis will be put on the Dutch airborne multichannel pushbroom scanner CAESAR showing specific geodetic points of interest in working with Remote...report 1989

van de Leijgraaf, R. (author), van Dorp, W.A. (author), Storm van Leeuwen, S. (author), Udo, R. (author)Today there is an increasing pressure on the fast delivery of a newly manufactured aircraft and on the strict guarding of its performance figures. It is therefore essential to reduce the necessary time between completion of the new aircraft and the moment of deliverance to an airline. This means that production flight testing time must be...report 1989

Kordes, F.L.G. (author), Schuurman, J.J. (author)In order to get a better sight on the performance of compression and encryption algorithms under various conditions a simulation environment is needed. Within this simulation environment It must be possible to investigate the influence of code tables, channel characteristics and frame formats on the performance of the algorithms. In this report...report 1989

Maccagno, T.M. (author)SiaN4 and SiC based advanced ceramics that have been produced by hot isostatic pressing (HIP'ing) have good potential to be used as hot section components in gas turbine aero engines. This report provides background for an NAE-SML investigation of this potential. The report begins with a general overview of the many fabrication methods that have...report 1989

Noback, R. (author)A method is described to generate a random Gaussian process with a power spectrum with fractional power, for example the von Karman spectrum for atmospheric turbulence. The method uses digital filtering of a white noise process and it is based on the use of fractional derivatives. An algorithm to generate the process is presented.report 1988

Kuijpers, E.A. (author)Existing robot vision algorithms are evaluated for application in space for proximity extraction using one camera. Lighting conditions and image formation differ from earth conditions which have implications. An algorithm is derived which is based on the use of run coding, tracking and a least mean error method. Problems concerning hardware...report 1987
