  • A dual-path 2-0 MASH ADC with dual digital error correction

    Creator:
    Zhang, Zhenyong
    Abstract:
    This dissertation presents a dual-path 2-0 MASH (Multi-stAge-noise -SHaping) ADC with two verified digital corrections of DAC mismatch error and quantization noise leakage. By using these two techniques, the requirements for the analog circuits are greatly relaxed. The dual-path structure generates two outputs, one only composed of conversion errors, the...

  • A recurrent neural network implementation using the graphics processing unit

    Creator:
    Moore, Christopher
    Abstract:
    We took the back-propagation algorithms of Werbos for recurrent and feed-forward neural networks and implemented them on machines with graphics processing units (GPU). The parallelism of these units gave our implementations a 10 to 100 fold increase in speed. For nets with less than 20 neurons the machine performed faster...

  • Design techniques for wideband low-power Delta-Sigma analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Wang, Yan
    Abstract:
    Delta-Sigma (ΔΣ) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are traditionally used in high quality audio systems, instrumentation and measurement (I&M) and biomedical devices. With the continued downscaling of CMOS technology, they are becoming popular in wideband applications such as wireless and wired communication systems,high-definition television and radar systems. There are two general realizations...

  • Modeling spintronics devices in Verilog-A for use with industry-standard simulation tools

    Creator:
    Engelbrecht, Linda M.
    Abstract:
    As the semiconductor industry works to integrate increasingly more "non-CMOS" devices onto CMOS ICs, compact model development has become an important step in the circuit/system verification tool flow. This research focuses on the two- and three-dimensional modeling of the physical phenomena that occur in nanoscale magnetic devices. This includes the...

  • Algorithms for massive biological datasets

    Creator:
    Bryant, Douglas W. (Douglas Wesley)
    Abstract:
    Within the past several years the technology of high-throughput sequencing has transformed the study of biology by offering unprecedented access to life's fundamental building block, DNA. With this transformation's potential a host of brand-new challenges have emerged, many of which lend themselves to being solved through computational methods. From de...

  • Interactive player tracking for videos in American football

    Creator:
    Bawaskar, Amit
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents an interactive software tool for tracking a moving object in a video. In particular, we focus on the problem of tracking a player in American football videos. Object tracking is one of the fundamental problems in computer vision. It is one of the most important components in...

  • Efficient Incremental Panorama Reconstruction from Multiple Videos

    Creator:
    Feng, Zhongyuan
    Abstract:
    Constructing a panorama from a set of videos is a long-standing problem in computer vision. A panorama represents an enhanced still-image representation of an entire scene captured in a set of videos, where each video shows only a part of the scene. Importantly, a panorama shows only the scene background,...

  • High-Resolution mm-wave Digitally Controlled Oscillator in CMOS

    Creator:
    Wang, Yunqi
    Abstract:
    All-digital PLLs promise flexible and precise frequency modulation continous-wave(FMCW) radar signal signal for 77GHz radar applications. Such PLLs require digitally-controlled oscillators(DCO) with wide frequency tuning range and high resolution to address a range of applications and low phase noise requirements. In this thesis, novel resonator structures with ne capacitance/inductance switching...

  • Network Coding, Random Matrices, and Their Applications to Communication Systems

    Creator:
    Nguyen-Huu, Duong
    Abstract:
    In this work, we study network coding technique, its relation to random matrices, and their applications to communication systems. The dissertation consists of three main contributions. First, we propose efficient algorithms for data synchronization via a broadcast channel using random network coding. Second, we study the resiliency of network coding...

  • Design of 28 GHz Low-Power Phased-Array Receiver Frontend in CMOS

    Creator:
    Garg, Robin
    Abstract:
    This work presents the design and implementation of a low power phased-array receiver frontend at 28 GHz in 65 nm CMOS. The frontend incorporates a low- power low-noise amplifier(LNA) and a passive reflection-type phase shifter (RTPS) capable of providing 360° phase shift with 5-bit phase resolution and low loss variation....
