  • Error control techniques for the Z-channel

    Creator:
    Oprisan, Paul
    Abstract:
    The asymmetric nature of bit errors in several practical applications provides grounds for efficient error control techniques. The Z-channel model and special classes of codes like asymmetric error detection codes and t-asymmetric error correcting/d-asymmetric error detecting codes can be successfully used in ARQ protocols for feedback error control enhancement. This...

  • Simultaneous segmentation and classification of bird song using CNN

    Creator:
    Narasimhan, Revathy
    Abstract:
    In bioacoustics, automatic animal voice detection and recognition from audio recordings is an emerging topic for animal preservation. Our research focuses on bird bioacoustics, where the goal is to segment bird syllables from the recording and predict the bird species for the syllables. Traditional methods for this task addresses the...

  • Atomic Layer Deposition of Multi-Insulator Metal-Insulator-Metal Capacitors

    Creator:
    Austin, Dustin Z.
    Abstract:
    Back end of line (BEOL) metal-insulator-metal capacitors (MIMCAPs) have become a core passive component in modern integrated circuits. International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) projections for scaling of analog/mixed-signal MIMCAP applications require simultaneously increasing capacitance density while maintaining low leakage current density and low voltage nonlinearity (characterized by the quadratic...

  • Analysis and optimal sizing of an energy storage system for wind farm applications

    Creator:
    Yen, Zuan Z.
    Abstract:
    Modern wind energy is the technology of choice with a short payback period for increasing renewable energy portfolios. Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), a United States power authority in the Pacific Northwest expects to increase their wind energy capacity from 2,000 megawatts to 6,000 megawatts within the next five years. Currently...

  • Hot electron effects in N-channel MOSFET's

    Creator:
    Or, Siu-shun Burnette
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this work is to develop a new model for LDD n-MOSFET degradation in drain current under long-term AC use conditions for lifetime projection which includes a self-limiting effect in the hot-electron induced device degradation. Experimental results on LDD n-channel MOSFETs shows that the maximum drain current degradation...

  • An n-sheet, state-space ACTFEL device model

    Creator:
    Hitt, John C.
    Abstract:
    The objective of the research presented in this thesis is to develop, implement, and demonstrate the utility of an n-sheet, state-space alternating-current thin-film electroluminescent (ACTFEL) device model. In this model, the phosphor layer is discretized into n + 1 layers, with band-to-band impact ionization, space charge creation/ annihilation, and luminescent...

    Mullapudi, Sri Sai Kameswara
    Abstract:
    Diabetes is a pandemic that affects nearly 29.1 million Americans and the fourth leading cause of mortality in the US. Type 1 diabetes is a chronic condition which occurs due to little to no production of insulin by the pancreas. This form of diabetes requires constant monitoring of blood glucose...

  • Hot carrier degradation of sub-micron n-channel MOSFETs subject to static stress

    Creator:
    Aminzadeh, Payman G.
    Abstract:
    Hot carrier effects in sub-micron lightly doped drain (LDD) n-channel MOSFETs under static (DC) stress are studied in order to establish the degradation mechanisms of such devices. Degradation is monitored as a function of time at various gate voltages. Under accelerated aging conditions (i.e. large drain voltages) the gate voltage...

  • Design and Simulation of Nonlinear Control Strategies for Heaving Point Wave Energy Converters in WEC-Sim

    Creator:
    Glennon, David N.
    Abstract:
    As the sources of our electricity shift from centralized and carbon emitting, to a portfolio of distributed, clean-energy sources, the wave energy converter (WEC) has become a topic of exploration and development for providing coastal communities electric power. Part of this trend has included an effort to create open source...
