Machine Learning-Aided Design of Dielectric-Filled Slotted Waveguide Antennas With Specified Sidelobe Levels
This paper presents the use of machine learning (ML) to facilitate the design of dielectric-filled Slotted Waveguide Antennas (SWAs) with specified sidelobe level ratios (SLR).Conventional design methods for air-filled SWAs require the simultaneous solving of complex equations to deduce the antenna’s design parameters, which typically requir
Sounds of the northern Andes: the calls of a diverse and endangered frog community (Amphibia, Anura) from Ecuador
The emission of calls is one of the most distinctive and important reproductive traits in anurans.Given the biological significance of vocalizations, this trait is also useful for identification proposes and is key in recognizing cryptic diversity.However, the majority of the calls from tropical ecosystems, especially in the high Andean mountains,
