Abstract: An antenna arrangement (1) comprising an antenna array is disclosed. The antenna array comprises N antenna elements (2) (N being an integer ≥3). Moreover, each antenna element is connected to an electronics module (3) out of P electronics modules, P being an integer such that 3≤P≤N, where each electronics module is configured to generate an output signal indicative of a signal received by a corresponding one or more antenna elements. The antenna arrangement further comprises control circuitry (10) connected to the antenna array. The control circuitry is configured to receive each output signal, compute a sum of cross-correlations between each output signal and a set of other output signals originating from other corresponding antenna elements, and determine at least one angle of a direction of arrival of the electromagnetic waves relative to the antenna array based on the computed sum.

Abstract: A method is provided for determining temperature changes of an optical fibre having Fiber Bragg Grating patterns provided in at least one portion of the optical fibre. The method involves: emitting light into the optical fibre in a first direction from a first detector arrangement, receiving reflections from the patterns of such emitted light by the first detector arrangement, and processing the reflections for determining a current temperature change related to the optical fibre; and on the basis of predetermined criteria, emitting light into the optical fibre in an opposite, second, direction from a second detector arrangement, receiving reflections from the patterns of such emitted light by the second detector arrangement, and processing the reflections for determining a current temperature change related to the optical fibre. A computer program product comprising program code for implementing the above-described method is also provided, along with an associated system and platform.
