Article Abstract

Multistatic synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is a special mode of SAR system. The radar transmitter and receiver are located on different satellites, which brings many advantages, such as flexible baseline configuration, diverse receiving modes, and more detailed ground object classification information. The multistatic SAR has been widely used in interferometry, moving target detection, three-dimensional imaging, and other fields. The frequency offset between different oscillators will cause a modulation phase error in the signal. Therefore, phase synchronization is one of the most critical problems to be addressed in distributed SAR systems. This article reviews phase synchronization techniques, which are mainly divided into two methods: synchronization by direct microwave link and synchronization by a data-based estimation algorithm. Furthermore, the future development of synchronization technology is anticipated.

Embryo transfer (ET) is a valuable reproductive technology in pigs, albeit its efficiency remains significantly lower than that of natural mating or artificial insemination (AI), owing to high embryonic death rates. Critical for embryo survival and pregnancy success is the placenta, which supports conceptus development through nutrient exchange, hormone production, and immune modulation. Alterations in placental development and function may therefore underlie the reduced efficiency of ET.

This study aims to clarify the dynamic changes in the cervical lordotic angle (CLA) during normal swallowing using an automated motion analysis method. Physiological cervical lordosis is crucial for spinal alignment and musculoskeletal function. While previous studies have noted the relevance of cervical curvature in clinical contexts, its dynamic modulation during swallowing has not been well studied.

The present protocol evaluates the relative impact of visual and vestibular inputs during roll plane rotations using optokinetic, vestibular, and combined visuovestibular stimulations. Subjects underwent isolated visual rotations, whole-body vestibular rotations in darkness, and visuovestibular stimulations combining static visual scenes with head rotations. Dynamic and static eye movement gains, absolute amplitudes, velocities, and accelerations were measured alongside perceptual responses.

Introduction: This study utilized electroencephalography (EEG) to compare brain functional and effective connectivity patterns in children with reading difficulties (RD) and math difficulties (MD) during specific tasks. The aim was to identify neurophysiological distinctions between these two learning disorders, which often exhibit high comorbidity.

Methods: Data from a publicly available dataset of 28 children (11 RD, 17 MD) aged 7-13 years were analyzed.

Objective: This study investigates the biomechanical effects of long-term Tai Chi practice on the knee meniscus through biomechanical experimentation and finite element simulation, focusing on practitioners performing Knee Brushing and Twisting Step. The findings aim to establish scientific guidelines for optimizing exercise protocols in middle-aged and elderly populations.

Methods: Twenty male middle-aged and elderly practitioners were recruited, divided into a Beginner Group (BG: n = 10), and an Experienced Group (EG: n = 10).
