This paper presents the baseline concept for a multi-year system development of a pico-hydroelectric power system in Nepal. Prior work on pico-hydro systems has focused on one or a few of the factors required for value sustainment over the full life cycle of the system. In contrast to prior investigations, this work provides a systems engineering approach to generate a highly contextualized solution...
The development of dielectric notch radiator (DNR) antennas is described with integrated filters for 5G and IoT systems. The DNR is a type of tapered slot antenna (TSA) and is similar to the familiar Vivaldi antenna except that the length of the DNR is much shorter than a Vivaldi. The five step design process for the DNR is given and expands upon prior exponential taper design methods. The optimization...
Digital receivers are an important component of phased array radars. This is due in part to the fact that they can allow for multiple simultaneous receive beams and useful modes of radar operation. Their development is normally restricted to detailed engineering activities with specifications flow-down from system level requirements. While this method is the normal approach to subsystem and component...
Hybrid power systems are a combination of electric power generation technologies configured to meet specific customer needs such as reliable electric power, low cost, or portable power. If the power generation uses renewable sources such as wind, geothermal, solar, biomass, and waste, then the result is rightly considered a renewable system-of-systems. This is because each of the power systems can...
The thirst for higher data rates and greater bandwidth has resulted in increased interest in millimeter-wave systems as a means for local and wider area information transport. At the same time there is a real need for lower cost and more compact systems. These requirements have led to the development of a highly integrated millimeter-wave System In Package (SIP), which operates beyond 40 GHz. This...
