In this work, the bulk-gate controlled circuit to improve the power supply ripple ratio (PSRR) of a Low Dropout Regulator (LDO) which deteriorates due to lowering power consumption is proposed. Designing with 0.25 mum CMOS process, the simulation results by HSPICE shown that the proposed circuit provides a high performance of PSRR even though 1/10 of the power consumption is reduced compare to the...
Class D amplifiers are becoming the most feasible solution for embedded audio application. However, distortions due to the non-linear nature of switching stage are the main drawback for this amplifier topology. This paper discusses the design and implementation of high fidelity audio class D using sliding mode control scheme. This design method proves to be a cost effective solution for industrial...
A novel configuration for a Brillouin distributed fiber sensor based on Brillouin optical time-domain analysis is proposed. This configuration eliminates many intensity noise issues found in previous schemes. Resolution of 7 m all over a 47 km single-mode fiber was achieved and resolution down to 30 cm in a few kilometer fiber. Noise reduction makes possible measurements with a 16 times averaging.
In this paper, we propose a robust STBC transmission scheme to combat the timing synchronization errors over frequency-selective multiple-access channels. First, the equivalent channel model in the presence of timing synchronization errors is derived and we find that the synchronization errors result in an equivalent channel model with larger number of correlated channel taps. Based on this correlated...
Some communication applications, like multimedia, deliver data of different importance classes allowing unequal error protection (UEP) levels. In this paper, a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is considered with a new UEP bit-loading algorithm based on the non-UEP algorithm by Chow, Cioffi, and Bingham. In the proposed bit-loading...
This paper explores the attributes, layering models and objective functions in cross layer designs for mobile ad hoc wireless networks by taking all the statistical characteristics and constraints from the physical (PHY) layer, media access control (MAC) layer and network (NET) layer into consideration. This paper reviews the entire network optimization across all the PHY/MAC/NET layers. At the PHY...
Correlative minimum shift keying (MSK), a second order polynomial modulation scheme known as tamed frequency modulation (TFM), is a constant envelope type of modulation with a perfect peak to average power ratio (PAPR), besides the property of low out of band power. We apply the linearized TFM to the single carrier transmission with frequency domain equalization (SC/FDE) concept. We then obtain a...
