R. Rao, University of Texas at Arlington, Texas, U.S.A Humberto Ochoa Domínguez, Universidad Autónoma de Ciudad Juárez, México ISBN: 9788770224215 e-ISBN: 9788770224208 Available From: January 2022 Price: € 98.50 Description: Innovations in communication systems and technology are growing tremendously. In multimedia communication systems, technology has transformed from analog television to digital television in the video domain. Mobile phones are known as smart phones as they are used, not only to make voice calls, but also used to send emails, video calls, transfer data, GPS, taking pictures and so on. Due to the widespread user applications, compression of data becomes important to save system resources. Video occupies 75% of data transfer traffic and is expected to cover 80% by the end of 2021. Video is also continuously increasing in file size from standard definition (SD) to ultra-high definition (UHD - 4K, 8K and 12K) video. More data or size in video requires higher transmission bandwidth or more disk space to store which can be slow and expensive. This drives the improvements in compression and hence the demand for a new codec. Several algorithms are used to achieve compression of Image or Video files, these algorithms working together are classified in terms of codecs and we use different codecs for different applications. Advances in video compression technology reduce the utilization of system resources, like processing time, memory use, network bandwidth and battery life.

  • Commercial Suborbital Flights - Air Or Space Law?
    COMMERCIAL SUBORBITAL FLIGHTS - AIR OR SPACE LAW? Izvorni znanstveni rad UDK 338.48:629.78(4EU:73) 347.82(4EU:73) 347.85(4EU:73) 340.5 Primljeno: 14. svibnja 2021. Iva Savić Nika Petić The concept of commercial suborbital flights cannot be established while we still lack two fundamental things: a definition of suborbital flight, and legal regulation of this phenomenon. When attempting to determine whether air or space law should govern commercial suborbital flights, due to the non-existent delimitation between airspace and outer space, we face several questions that need to be resolved. These questions are considered through both spatialist and functionalist approaches, which are further used to discern whether commercial suborbital flights fall under the scope of air or space law. In this context, in this paper we aim to consider the broader picture, analysing existing regulation and the work of regulatory bodies in the EU and US. In conclusion, we suggest a new sui generis approach to commercial suborbital flights in international law, possibly through the ICAO with the support of UNCOPUOS, and the creation of a separate convention to address commercial suborbital flights as a special category. Ključne riječi: commercial suborbital flights, international air law, international space law, space tourism, delimitation of space Iva Savić, Assistant Professor, Faculty of Law of the University of Zagreb, Chair of Maritime and Transport law Nika Petić, lawyer trainee at the Law Firm ILEJ & PARTNERS LLC Savić, Petić: Commercial Suborbital

  • The Development of the Spaceliner Concept and Its Latest Progress
    4TH CSA-IAA CONFERENCE ON ADVANCED SPACE TECHNOLOGY The Development of the SpaceLiner Concept and its Latest Progress Tobias Schwanekamp, Carola Bauer, Alexander Kopp [email protected] Tel. +49 (0) 421 24420-231, Fax. +49 (0) 421 24420-150 German Aerospace Center (DLR), Institute of Space Systems, Space Launcher System Analysis (SART), 28359 Bremen, Germany A visionary, ultrafast passenger transportation concept, proposed as the SpaceLiner, is developed by the Space Launcher System Analysis department of the German Aerospace Center DLR. Based on rocket propulsion this two stage RLV should be capable to carry about 50 passengers over ultra-long-haul distances within a fractional amount of time needed for common long-distance flights. Since the SpaceLiner has been proposed for the first time in 2005, the concept is subject to an iterative process of development. Several configuration trade-offs have been performed in order to support the definition of the next reference configuration. This paper gives a summary of the main enhancements and the knowledge gained within the preliminary design phase of the SpaceLiner orbiter stage. As the Orbiter volplanes along the major part of the hypersonic trajectory, the glide ratio is the most significant driving parameter to obtain maximum possible ranges. Thus the main focus of the investigations is on the development of an aerodynamic and aerothermodynamic shape design as well as on various system and environmental aspects or rather operating conditions which have an impact on the aerodynamic
