  • Sliding-mode control of the super maneuverable aircraft

    Creator:
    Koo, Chang Sul
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, A nonlinear methodology for the control of the highly maneuverable, high performance aircraft HARV (F-18) is studied by using sliding-mode control (SMC). This control law, which takes a continuous function when the input constraints are not considered, satisfies the reachability condition by which concerned states are driven...

  • High accuracy CMOS switched-current ladder filters

    Creator:
    Hoei, Jung-sheng
    Abstract:
    Clock-feedthrough effects, channel-length modulation and device mismatch are the main causes of the inaccuracy of Switched-Current (SI) circuits. In this paper, these non-ideal effects are analyzed. A high-performance current mirror, namely regulated cascode current mirror, which eliminates drain voltage variation problem is introduced. By using this current mirror as a...

  • MOS switched-current biquadratic filters

    Creator:
    Lee, Bor
    Abstract:
    A MOS biquadratic (biquad) filter employing the switched-current technique is reported. The circuit uses current-mode processing which can offer wide bandwidth, low voltage operation, and can be implemented with standard CMOS technology. Examples of lowpass, highpass, and bandpass filters are given which illustrate the synthesis procedures and the versatility of...

  • Analytical model of GaAs MESFET output conductance with frequency and temperature dependent parameters

    Creator:
    Lam, Steven C. F.
    Abstract:
    The output characteristics of a conventional GaAs depletion-mode MESFET device have been investigated. One of the important parameters of the small-signal GaAs MESFET model, g[subscript ds] (output conductance), is shown to be frequency and temperature dependent. Variations in g[subscript ds] are a serious problem in many analog and digital circuits...

  • Current mode analog and digital circuit design

    Creator:
    Liang, Guojin
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, two important current mode circuit design subjects have been explored. In the first part, the switched-current circuit technique has been investigated. The fundamental performance and limitations of this technique are explored. One of the major limitations, the signal distortion caused by clock feedthrough has been substantially reduced...

  • Design, fabrication, and testing of inhomogeneous dielectrics

    Creator:
    Lim, Sungkyoo
    Abstract:
    In this thesis the concept of inhomogeneous dielectrics is demonstrated for various optical coating applications. Compositionally-varying silicon oxynitride (SiON) dielectric layers, with the refractive index varying as a function of position, are grown by computer-controlled plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) using silane, nitrogen, and nitrous oxide reactant gases. Compositionally graded...

  • Analysis and applications of layered multiconductor coupled slot and strip-slot structures

    Creator:
    Luo, Sifen
    Abstract:
    Layered multiconductor coupled slot and strip-slot structures are characterized by introducing the full-wave modal analysis as well as the quasi-TEM spectral domain technique. In the modal analysis, the electric and magnetic fields are constructed in terms of modal fields in different regions. Application of the boundary conditions at interfaces for...
