  • Design techniques for low power high speed successive approximation analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Lin, Jiaming
    Abstract:
    This dissertation presents two high-speed pipeline successive approximation analog-to-digital converters (SAR ADCs). Capacitive DACs and resistive DACs are utilized in these two pipeline SAR ADCs, respectively. The pipeline SAR ADC with capacitive DACs can save 50% switching power compared with other time-interleaved SAR ADCs since the total capacitance of the...

  • Space time coding in MIMO systems

    Creator:
    Xian, Liang
    Abstract:
    Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna technology is promising for high-speed wireless communications without increasing the transmission band- width. Space time coding (STC) is a scheme that employs multiple antennas to increase transmission rate or to improve transmission quality. STC is used widely in mobile cellular networks, wireless local area networks (WLAN)...

  • Design of Energy-Efficient Equalization and Data Encoding/Decoding Techniques for Wireline Communication Systems

    Creator:
    Chun, Yu Sang
    Abstract:
    Ever increasing global internet data traffic has driven up the demand for cutting-edge high-speed wireline communication systems including SerDes PHY for various interfaces, interconnects, data centers servers and switches in optical systems. Operating wireline communications at higher data rates leads to signals suffering from greater channel loss and exponential increase...

  • Channel Estimation, Modulation Techniques and Decoding Algorithms for Hybrid WiFi-FSO (WiFO) WLAN of Femtocells

    Creator:
    Chu, Yu-Jung
    Abstract:
    Due to the limitation of the radio frequency (RF) spectrum, it is increasingly more difficult to support billions of wireless devices in the age of Internet-of-Things. Consequently, many recent wireless indoor communication systems have been developed using free space optical (FSO) communication technologies that exploit the extremely large light spectrum...

  • Design techniques for low power ADCs

    Creator:
    Yu, Wenhuan
    Abstract:
    This dissertation presents an incremental analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with digital digital-to-analog converter (DAC) mismatch correction. A theoretical time-domain analysis technique was developed to predict the noise performance of the incremental ADC, and a new optimization technique was proposed to minimize the output noise. In the calibration mode, the incremental ADC...

  • Machine Learning for Architectural Design Space Exploration and Resource Control

    Creator:
    Penney, Drew D.
    Abstract:
    Machine learning has enabled significant advancements in diverse fields, yet, with a few exceptions, has had limited impact on computer architecture. Recent work, however, has begun to explore broader application to design, optimization, and simulation. Notably, machine-learning-based strategies often surpass prior state-of-the-art analytical, heuristic, and human-expert approaches. This thesis first...

  • Nonlinear neural control with power systems applications

    Creator:
    Chen, Dingguo
    Abstract:
    Extensive studies have been undertaken on the transient stability of large interconnected power systems with flexible ac transmission systems (FACTS) devices installed. Varieties of control methodologies have been proposed to stabilize the postfault system which would otherwise eventually lose stability without a proper control. Generally speaking, regular transient stability is...

  • Error control techniques for the Z-channel

    Creator:
    Oprisan, Paul
    Abstract:
    The asymmetric nature of bit errors in several practical applications provides grounds for efficient error control techniques. The Z-channel model and special classes of codes like asymmetric error detection codes and t-asymmetric error correcting/d-asymmetric error detecting codes can be successfully used in ARQ protocols for feedback error control enhancement. This...

    Creator:
    Squire, Kenneth J.
    Abstract:
    The need to detect trace amounts of target molecules is great, particularly when it comes to biosensing. With the early detection of a disease, the odds of the successful treatment of an individual increases significantly. To enhance the capability of biomolecular detection, we have created an optical biosensor capable of...
