We focus on an opportunistic communication system consisting of multiple independent channels with time-varying states. With limited sensing, a user can only sense and access a subset of channels and accrue rewards determined by the state of the sensed channels. We formulate the problem of optimal sequential channel probing as a restless multi-armed bandit process, for which a powerful index policy-Whittle's...
In this paper, a CMOS analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for Ultra Wide Band (UWB) applications with a 6-bit 1GSPS at 1.8 V is described. The architecture of the proposed ADC is based on a fully folded ADC using resistive interpolation technique for low power consumption. To reduce the power consumption, a folder reduction technique to decrease the number of folding blocks (NFB) is proposed. Further,...
A variable fractional delay (VFD) filter is presented that constitutes an efficient alternative to the usual Farrow structure. The filter is constructed by multiplying the signal to interpolate by a window with proper truncation properties, and then applying the sampling theorem. The resulting interpolator involves less arithmetic operations than the existing variants of the Farrow structure. Besides,...
This paper describes a new approach to the design of combinational logic using large-scale-integrated (LSI) circuit technology. A simple "prototype" logic function of n binary variables is imbedded within an array of at most (n+1) rows and columns. The cells of this array contain 2-input exclusive-OR gates, and its rows are fed by the input variables and logical "1". Its column...
