A REVIEW OF RECENT RESULTS OF WHITE LIGHT GENERATION AND TUNABLE VISIBLE LIGHT EMISSION BY AG NANOCLUSTERS: UNDOPED AND DOPED TM3+ /YB3+ DOPED GEO2-PBO GLASSES Along with technology advances, which includes but not limited to electronics, microelectronics, optoelectronics, photonics, signal processing, and programing has come the interest on fast, multifunction, lightweight, and low power consumption communication devices.Such high demanded and sometimes conflicting features have greatly increased interest worldwide in wireless and optical technologies for building applications of intelligent systems.It is paramount necessary to study how these applications are being developed and what are the challenges that must be overcome for successful deployments of this technology.Under this scenario, the sector where the development of this technology is most expected is undoubtedly in the telecommunication sector.The gains with the implementation of this technology go far beyond to just replace the existing ones to provide tools that possess decision-making capability and to fulfill the society needs.There are several competing technologies in the market and as this market grows, the number of technological options to embed in a device will only increase.Within this vision, a plethora of projects are being developed in recent years on techniques and methods from RF and microwaves to Terahertz, optics, and photonics.This book aims to highlight the strength and state-of-art of some techniques and methods applied to intelligent systems.Rather to cover the variety of techniques and methods available in the literature, which is out of scope of this book, it focuses on those consolidated and applied and on those with high potential of implementation to smart systems.This book has fourteen chapters covering abroad range of topics in communications.The first three chapters are devoted to state-of-art and review papers on planar filters, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), negative group delay, nanoclusters, and tunable lights, while the remain chapters cover specific topics such as smart monitoring, V2I, high-speed links, RF and Optical sensors, composite material, metamaterial, energy harvesting, radar, SWIPT, and electromagnetic sources.The opportunity to organize a book of this magnitude, whose content inspires the continuous search for knowledge and pursue research, brings encouragement and great pleasure to this researcher.It is not by chance that I had the opportunity to meet most of the authors, regularly attempting international events, invited talks, invited lectures, organizing sessions, workshops, and events and project partnerships abroad.More than ever, the academia and the industry believe in the power of multidisciplinary approach and sympathizes with the most rigorous scientific criteria.The authors, each in their own way, made a remarkable contribution to microwaves and optoelectronics topics to compile this first edition and provide necessary fundamental resources to the readers.The reader will be impressed by its content and each chapter is a unique journey!Enjoy reading!
