  • Weather influence on Loran-C

    Creator:
    Graulich, Markus Günter
    Abstract:
    The influence of weather on the long range radio navigation system Loran-C was investigated. The variables analyzed over a period of 255 days were: time differences (TDs), TD signal-to-noise ratios, TD standard deviations (measured at a fixed receiver location in Corvallis, Oregon), time interval numbers (TINOs) (measured at the transmitter...

  • Failure analysis of Muller-C-element

    Creator:
    Chew, Oonpin
    Abstract:
    Asynchronous circuits have recently been a breakthrough in many high performance computers. The concept of asynchronous circuits which started a long time ago has slowly grasped the attention of many designers. The Muller-C-element is an important control block in many asynchronous designs and therefore it is important to understand some...

  • LORAN-C receiver position estimation from noisy time-difference data

    Creator:
    Weisshaar, Andreas
    Abstract:
    In order to analyze the accuracy of the navigation system LORAN-C, we have collected time - difference (TD) data from the U.S. west coast chain (9940) at a fixed receiver location (Corvallis, Oregon). The analysis of the TD data shows an unexpected high correlation between the TDs as well as...

  • Analog integrated circuit design using GaAs C-HFETs

    Creator:
    Gupta, Rakhee
    Abstract:
    Present day data processing technology requires very high speed signal processing and data conversion rates. One such application which requires high speed is switched capacitor circuits used in Sigma-Delta modulators. A major active component of switched capacitor circuits is the monolithic operational amplifier(opamp). Because of the relatively poor speed performance...

  • The identification of Dungeness crab from the power spectral density function of their acoustic signature

    Creator:
    Eghbali, Hassan J.
    Abstract:
    The power spectral density of the acoustic signature of Dungeness crab was calculated by the use of digital computer. The signal produced by the Dungeness crab was an analog signal. Therefore a conversion of the signal from analog to digital was necessary. This was done by sampling the acoustic signature...

  • Energy-efficient OTA architectures using load-pole cancellation

    Creator:
    Ramakrishna, Pavan Kumar
    Abstract:
    The CMOS two-stage Operational Transconductance Amplifier (OTA) has been a key enabler for mixed-signal IC design for nearly four decades . This research focuses on a modified two-stage CMOS OTA that features load-pole cancellation (LPC); i.e., the resulting architecture is essentially a two-stage CMOS OTA with no load capacitance. The...

  • Design considerations for fast-settling operational amplifiers

    Creator:
    Yang, Howard C.
    Abstract:
    The design considerations for fast-settling operational amplifiers (opamps) differ significantly between sampled-data switchedcapacitor (SC) and conventional continuous-time applications. In SC circuits, the shape of the output voltage waveform of an opamp is of no consequence provided that the output settles to within a specified tolerance of its steady-state value prior...

  • A P-well GaAs MESFET technology

    Creator:
    Canfield, Philip C.
    Abstract:
    The semiconductor gallium arsenide (GaAs) has many potential advantages over the more widely used semiconductor silicon (Si). These include higher low field mobility, semi-insulating substrates, a direct band-gap, and greater radiation hardness. All these advantages offer distinct opportunities for implementation of new circuit functions or extension of the operating conditions...

  • gm/ID Design Techniques for Low-power High-performance CMOS Analog Integrated Circuits

    Creator:
    Aueamnuay, Chaiyanut
    Abstract:
    The gm/ID-based design of analog integrated circuits introduced in 1996 employs an empirical transistor sizing methodology using SPICE-generated lookup tables that enables good agreement between simulations and specifications. This thesis introduces a new SPICE lookup table that extends the gm/ID approach to the Miller pole-splitting frequency compensation of the classical...

  • Hybrid computer simulation of wind-driven ocean currents

    Creator:
    Vithayathil, Francis Joseph
    Abstract:
    A simulation method using a hybrid computer is developed in this dissertation to enhance the study of wind-driven ocean circulation. The simulation is based on the mathematical model developed by Ekman. Pure digital simulation is not economical due to excessive computer time required for the solution of the partial differential...
