Abstract: Methods and systems of monitoring and controlling thermal therapy treatments. One method includes determining, with an electronic processor, a propagation constant for a plurality of waveports. The method also includes modeling an object within an imaging cavity using a sparse mesh model. The method also includes determining a simulated impedance of the object based on the model of the object. The method also includes calibrating the simulated impedance with a theoretical impedance numerically calculated for the object. The method also includes determining a distribution of an electric field and a distribution of a magnetic field for a mode in a conformal modeled waveport based on the calibrated impedance and the model of the object. The method also includes exciting the plurality of waveports to generate the determined distribution of the electric field and the distribution of the magnetic field.

Abstract: This disclosure presents distributed and decentralized synchronization for wireless transceivers. The disclosed system, device, and method achieve sub-nanosecond synchronization using low-cost commercial off the shelf software defined radios. By providing a decentralized mechanism that does not rely on a hierarchical master-slave structure, networks constructed as disclosed are robust to sensor drop-out in contested or harsh environments. Such networks may be used to create phased array radars and communication systems without requiring wired connections to distribute a common clock or local oscillator reference.
