To attain this objective, we introduce a Sequential Detection of Change Test (SDCT), designed at the independent mixture of Laplacian and Gaussian distributions. We analyse and numerically evaluate the proposed test for various noisy environments. In addition, we address the problem of effectively recognizing the possible presence of cyber exploits in the voice transmission channel. We then introduce another sequential test, designed to detect rapidly and accurately the presence of such exploits, named Cyber Attacks Sequential Detection of Change Test (CA-SDCT). We analyse and numerically evaluate the latter test. Experimental results and comparisons with other proposed methods are also presented.展开更多

Surfaceplasmon-polariton(SPP) waves are most commonly used for optical sensing because of the ease of the excitation of an SPP wave when the fluid is partnered with a metal. If the fluid is replaced by a porous, anisotropic, and periodically nonhomogeneous solid filled with the fluid, while the metal is replaced by an isotropic homogeneous dielectric material, the surface wave is called a Dyakonov–Tamm(DT) wave. We have theoretically determined that the incorporation of the DT-waveguiding interface in a prism-coupled configuration provides an alternative to the analogous SPP wave-based sensor, with comparable dynamic sensitivity.展开更多
