Modern environmental monitoring and modeling requires a good global
grid system for survey sampling and accurate, spatially complete data
collection of relevant environmental phenomena. A prime requirement for the
global grid system is that the global sampling grids be regular and equal in area
and have minimal shape distortion. None...

Full integration of CMOS low noise amplifiers (LNA) presents a challenge for low

is the inaccurate high-frequency noise model of the MOSFET implemented in circuit
simulators such as SPICE. Silicon-based monolithic inductors are another...
