These influences are also illustrated through other technologies, including Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) and the chromatic effects captured by hyperspectral cameras. This research addresses the complexities of interpreting unusual propagation patterns, such as Long Delay Echoes (LDE) and unexpected Field Echoes (UFE), which disrupt the anticipated propagation and echo protocols, thereby challenging our understanding and comprehension of radio transmission norms that may be influenced by a form of quantum entanglement. The paper posits a significant and largely unexamined correlation between these phenomena in the context of UAP activity, highlighting the urgent need for further research and innovative strategies in navigation technology and environmental monitoring to investigate these potential occurrences, which have remained enigmatic for nearly a century. Radar signals are vulnerable to intricate dynamics that can lead to Unusual Field Echoes (UFE), resulting in emergent anomalies, such as Multiple echo returns and LDEs. This study employed a 3-centimeter marine-based X-band radar operating in two scan geometries and a portable short-range millimeter-wave Doppler radar system. An analysis of these radar echoes over a two-year study identified signal propagation that deviated from navigational standards on Plan Position Indicators (PPI). This paper explores and investigates the potential impacts of UAP on radar transmission routes. Examining these complexities makes a case for an enhanced understanding of the interactions between established technological factors and elusive aerial phenomena.展开更多

There is, however, still need for the long term integrated planning of generation and transmission capacities at the macro level, since these two sectors must operate in a coordinated manner. This paper presents a model for integrating generation and transmission expansion planning to identify an indicative expansion plan for the total sector at the macro level. The argument for an integrated model is supported using evidence from integrated planning efforts in real life systems. The application of the proposed model is illustrated using an example that requires expansion of generation and transmission capacities over three regions in a deregulated power system. The example considers that addition of generating capacity should come from renewable sources. The test results show the potential cost saving from integrated planning.展开更多
