The Global Positioning System (GPS) is designed to operate in all weather conditions. Here, we discuss a case that involves received GPS signals through a light rain event, with incident energy at 1.57542 GHz right-hand circularly polarized. The power transmi…

Wide area multilateration algorithms suffer from stability issues related to the fact that the reference points are nearly coplanar. This paper presents a method to add elevation angle measurements to a multilateration problem and thereby reduce the error per…

Monocular visual odometry (VO) is the process of determining a user’s trajectory through a series of consecutive images taken by a single camera. A major problem that affects the accuracy of monocular visual odometry, however, is the scale ambiguity. This res…

Subduction plays a fundamental role in plate tectonics and is a significant factor in modifying the structure and topography of the Earth. It is driven by convection forces that change over a >100 Myr time scale. However, when an oceanic plateau approaches, i…

In the Arabian - Northern African region, interaction of the Nubian, Arabian and Eurasian plates and many small tectonic units is conspicuous. In order to better understand this interaction, we use satellite derived gravity data (retracked to the Earth’s surf…

In this paper, SLAM systems are introduced using monocular and stereo visual sensors. The SLAM solutions are implemented in both indoor and out door. The SLAM samples have been taken in different modes, such as a straight line that enables us to measure the d…

Authors submit their manuscript, metadata, and declarations through the portal. There is no submission fee.
The editorial office screens the manuscript for scope, completeness, and formatting before assigning a handling editor.
At least two independent reviewers evaluate the manuscript under single-blind review. Where revisions are required, authors respond point by point.
On acceptance the article processing charge is invoiced and the CC BY 4.0 copyright handover is signed.
The article is copyedited, typeset, and given a DOI, then publishes open access with a permanent link.
Manuscripts must be original and not under consideration elsewhere. Submit in Microsoft Word or LaTeX with figures at 300 dpi minimum. Structure research articles as Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and References.
