• Diagnostic applications of diffuse reflectance spectroscopy 

      Randeberg, Lise Lyngsnes (Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2005:100, Doctoral thesis, 2005)
      This thesis covers a wide field of applications, with an emphasis on applications of reflectance spectroscopy for diagnostic purposes. Reflectance spectroscopy in the visible part of the spectrum has been proved to be a ...
    • Joint Source-channel Coding: Development of Methods and Utilization in Image Communications 

      Coward, Helge (Dr. ingeniøravhandling, 0809-103X; 2001:76, Doctoral thesis, 2001)
      In a traditional communication system, the coding process is divided into source coding and channel coding. Source coding is the process of compressing the source signal, and channel coding is the process of error protection. ...
    • Peaking Capacity in Restructured Power Systems 

      Doorman, Gerard (Dr. ingeniøravhandling, 0809-103X; 2000:100, Doctoral thesis, 2000)
      The theme of this thesis is the supply of capacity during peak demand in restructured power systems. There are a number of reasons why there is uncertainty about whether an enegyonly electricity market (where generators ...
