Redundant Ballistic Chronograph Configuration for Body Armor Testing

July 28, 2023
Author(s)
Michael A. Riley, Nicholas G. Paulter Jr., Dwight D. Barry
A new configuration of the light screen pairs used in a redundant ballistic chronograph is described. This configuration complies with current ASTM International and National Institute of Justice requirements for measuring the ballistic performance of body

Prototype of high accuracy single input phase measurement instrument

August 2, 2022
Author(s)
Nicholas G. Paulter Jr., Ioan Tudosa, Francesco Picariello, Pasquale Daponte, Luca De Vito, Sergio Rapuano
A prototype implementation of a phase measurement method (PMM) for a sine-wave signal delivered at the output port of a generator and its experimental assessment is presented. This PMM is capable of measuring the output phase of a sine-wave signal respect

White-Box Evaluation of Fingerprint Matchers: Robustness to Minutiae Perturbations

January 6, 2021
Author(s)
Steven Grosz, Joshua J. Engelsma, Nicholas G. Paulter Jr., Anil K. Jain
Prevailing evaluations of fingerprint recognition systems have been performed as end-to-end black-box tests of fingerprint identification or authentication accuracy. However, performance of the end-to-end system is subject to errors arising in any of its

A Phase Measurement Method to Guarantee the Traceability of the Calibration System

August 1, 2020
Author(s)
Nicholas G. Paulter Jr., Sergio Rapuano, Pasquale Daponte, Luca De Vito, Francesco Picariello, Ioan Tudosa
In this paper, an innovative phase measurement method of sinusoidal signals is presented and a proof-of-concept implementation is demonstrated. The method allows measuring the phase at the output of a high frequency sinewave signal generator, respect to a

The IEEE TC-10 Standards: Update 2019

February 28, 2020
Author(s)
Nicholas G. Paulter Jr., Sergio Rapuano, Luca De Vito, John R. Jendzurski, W. B. Boyer, S. J. Tilden
There is a global need to standardize the terms and the test and computational methods that are used to describe and/or measure the parameters that characterize and define the performance of devices that generate signals and subsequently measure and
