In recent years, a large number of identity-based key agreement protocols from pairings have been proposed. Some of them are elegant and practical. However, the security of this ty...
The autofocus problem in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is considered, where phase errors in the acquired signal data result in imagery that is improperly focused. We present a ne...
