  • Energy efficient communication across on-chip wires in digital CMOS

    Creator:
    Postman, Jacob
    Abstract:
    For the past half century, CMOS process scaling has followed Moore's law, approximately doubling transistor density every 18 months. While locally routed wires have generally scaled with transistor size, longer wires have scaled at a slower rate and in some cases have grown larger as chip size and complexity have...

  • The Architecture of a Reusable Built-In Self-Test for Link Training, IO and Memory Defect Detection and Auto Repair on 14nm Intel SOC

    Creator:
    Querbach, Bruce
    Abstract:
    The complexity of designing and testing today's system on chip (SOC) is increasing due to greater integrated circuit (IC) density and higher IO and memory frequencies. SOCs for the mobile phone and tablet market have the unique challenge of short product development windows, at times less than six months, and...

  • IC-Antenna Co-Integration for Efficient and Scalable Millimeter-Wave Antenna Interfaces

    Creator:
    Liu,Yao
    Abstract:
    Millimeter-wave (mm-wave) technology promises high speed, high system capacity and low latency interconnects with reduced cost. Applications like high data-rate wireless links, next generation automotive sensors and security body scanners highly depend on mm-wave technology innovations. As operating frequency moves to higher mm-wave bands, shrinking antenna dimensions enable co-integration of...

  • Multiple-fault detection in iterative arrays

    Creator:
    Ramamurti, Chandramouli
    Abstract:
    With the advent of LSI, iterative forms of realization of digital systems are becoming increasingly popular with system designers. Many problems occurring in digital computer design render themselves suitable for iterative realization. These include adders, arithmetic logic units, coding and decoding circuits and so on. Fault-free functioning of such systems...

  • Identification of stochastic systems with random parameters with particular reference to the recirculating lymphocytes in the immune system

    Creator:
    Farooqi, Zarreen H. H.
    Abstract:
    This thesis is composed of four parts: i) system description, ii) model development, iii) parameter estimation, and iv) validation. The natural system used here is an aspect of the immune system, namely, the distribution of recirculating lymphocytes in various organs throughout the body. This distribution gains importance because: i) it...

  • Nonlinear approach to the direction finding problem in array processing

    Creator:
    Ill-keun Rhee
    Abstract:
    In sonar or radar array processing, one of the most important objectives is to estimate the angles of incidence of distant source signals in a noisy environment. The standard eigenstructure-based method, which is known to yield high resolution spectral estimates for solving the direction finding problem, relies on the assumption...

  • Power System Planning for Sustainable, Reliable, and Accessible Electricity: Models, Methods, and Metrics

    Creator:
    Cicilio, Phylicia R.
    Abstract:
    Generation resources are shifting from centralized, high inertial, fossil fuel based to decentralized, no inertia, and variable renewable resources. The evolution of generation resources in electrical grids requires the transformation of the electrical grid infrastructure, and operation and planning procedures and standards. This dissertation takes four investigations into how to...

  • Parameter and volterra-kernel estimation of bilinear systems

    Creator:
    Baheti, Radhakisan Sohanlal
    Abstract:
    It has been established that bilinear models occur frequently in nature and offer some important advantages from the standpoint. of controllability, optimization and modeling. The estimation of bilinear systeim models from the Measurements of input-output data are discussed. In the first approach a parametric model of a discrete-time linear system...

  • Conditionally Gaussian processes in stochastic control theory

    Creator:
    Kolodziej, Wojciech Jan
    Abstract:
    An application of the theory of conditionally Gaussian random processes to filtering and stochastic control problems is presented here. The results due to Liptser and Shiryayev are proved to hold in the multidimensional case under somewhat relaxed conditions, when compared to the original ones. Such a generalization is required from...

  • The doubly-excited generator and its utilization in a variable-speed generating system

    Creator:
    Agha-Mirsalim, Mojtaba
    Abstract:
    The doubly-excited machine can be used as a variablespeed generator or as a variable-speed-drive motor. In this thesis the focus is on the aspects associated with generating electric power (real and reactive) from erratic energy resources such as water or wind. In such cases, the power input to the prime...
