Linear and nonlinear feedback linearization of radio frequency power amplifiers

Creator:: Bogya, Robert I.
Abstract:: Radio frequency (RF) power amplifiers (PA) are the most power consuming components of a mobile communications unit. They are used to convert the DC power from the battery into RF power delivered to the antenna. In a cell phone it becomes very important to use highly efficient power amplifiers, such...

A Personal Dead Reckoning RFID Waypoint Updated System for Footstep Level Resolution Path Tracking to Enable Research Into Early Diagnosis of Alzheimer’s

Creator:: Connell, Sean Robert
Abstract:: The problem of footstep level resolution indoor path tracking and gait velocity lacks a good solution. The current solutions are either prohibitively expensive [4], extremely invasive to deploy [1], or too inaccurate to achieve the sub meter level resolution required to track foot paths. By combining existing pedestrian dead reckoning...

Substrate noise coupling in ring oscillator-based phase locked loops

Creator:: Shreeve, Robert
Abstract:: In this thesis, the performance degradation of a phase-locked loop due to substrate noise is examined. A new analytical equivalent circuit model for substrate noise coupling is derived for a heavily doped silicon substrate. The model has been validated with measured data from a 0.35 μm CMOS process. Since the...

Measurement and analysis of soft error vulnerability of low-voltage logic and memory circuits

Creator:: Pawlowski, Robert
Abstract:: Scaling the supply voltage into the sub/near-threshold domain is one of the most effective methods for improving the energy efficiency of next-generation electronic microsystems. Unfortunately, the relationship between low-voltage operation and radiation-induced soft error rate is not widely known, as little research has been previously performed and reported for soft-error...

Correlated level shifting as a power-saving method to reduce the effects of finite DC gain and signal swing in opamps

Creator:: Gregoire, B. Robert
Abstract:: This thesis presents methods to reduce the effects of finite opamp DC gain, output voltage swing limitations in opamps, and component mismatches. The primary contribution of this thesis is a new switched-capacitor method named correlated level shifting (CLS). CLS enables true rail-to-rail operation by storing an estimate of the desired...

Engineering a Profiling System for a Robotic Oceanographic Surface Sampler

Creator:: Shannon, Robert J.
Abstract:: ROSS (Robotic Oceanographic Surface Sampler) is an autonomous boat, equipped with oceanographic sensors, used for studying the ocean’s surface. One of its advantages over traditional research vessels is its ability to sample near glaciers, an area too dangerous for manned ships. In order to properly ascertain deep ocean heat’s effect...

Adaptive, wideband analog-to-digital conversion for convergent communication systems

Creator:: Batten, Robert D., 1973-
Abstract:: The exponential rate of advances in modern communication devices in the last several years have brought us higher levels of functionality and performance as well as reductions in physical size and power consumption. To continue this rate of advancement, next generation systems require wider bandwidth and higher resolution ADCs. Additionally,...

On the study of WEC prototype advancement with consideration of real-time life extending control

Creator:: Stillinger, Chad J.
Abstract:: Renewable energy is a topic of significant interest and importance in the world today. Ocean wave energy, particularly in areas such as the Oregon Coast, has considerable potential as a renewable resource. However, to rightly evaluate the overall cost of energy for wave energy converters, survivability and maintenance issues must...

Investigation and comparison of generators for dynamic operation in ocean buoys

Creator:: Schacher, Anthony Clinton
Abstract:: A significantly untapped renewable energy source exists in the world's oceans. It is estimated that if 0.2% of the ocean's untapped energy could be harnessed, it could provide power sufficient for the entire world. Ocean energy extraction is an old concept, and it is currently seeing the benefit of advancing...

Transparent electronics : thin-film transistors and integrated circuits

Creator:: Presley, Rick E.
Abstract:: This thesis focuses on two aspects of transparent electronics, SnO₂ transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs) and transparent circuits. Both depletion- and enhancement-mode SnO₂ TTFTs are realized. The maximum effective mobility for the depletion- and enhancement-mode devices are 2 cm²V⁻¹s⁻¹ and 0.8 cm²V⁻¹s⁻¹, respectively. A variety of techniques to decrease the carrier...
