In this thesis, the literature relating to charge pump dc-dc converters and
their uses is reviewed. Charge pumps are useful in many circuits, including low-voltage
circuits, dynamic random access memory circuits, switc ...
Adaptive filtering may be applied in areas where an optimal filtering algorithm
may not be known a-priori and where the filtering operation may be non-stationary. This
field, or more generally, the field of adaptive sy ...
Extensive studies have been undertaken on the transient stability of large interconnected
power systems with flexible ac transmission systems (FACTS) devices installed.
Varieties of control methodologies have been prop ...
The application of information theory and digital signal processing techniques to digital
communication has resulted in robust methods for reliable high speed data transmission
over noisy channels environments. Among t ...
Vision is a flexible, non-contact sensor that can be used for position feedback in
closed-loop control of dynamic systems. Current vision systems for industrial
automation provide low sample rates and large sample dela ...
