  • Wirelessly Powered cm-Scale Sensor for Small Insect Localization Application

    Creator:
    Kang, Jian
    Abstract:
    The prevalence of Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications leads to an increasing focus on the design and optimization of sensor nodes. Battery lifetime and associated costs of battery replacement often limits the long term operation and viability of sensor nodes. RF wireless energy harvesting on the other hand can be appealing since...

  • A high-swing CMOS operational amplifier topology

    Creator:
    Yang, John Jian
    Abstract:
    A circuit topology for high-swing, high-linearity CMOS operational amplifiers has been developed. The technique uses parallel-connected p- and n-channel input pairs to realize an input common-mode voltage range nearly equal to the total power supply voltage. High linearity is achieved by summing the DC bias and AC small-signal currents so...

  • Quantum dot plasmon coupling : Fundamental study and applications

    Creator:
    Kannegulla, Akash
    Abstract:
    The dissertation focuses on the engineering of light-matter interaction using plasmonic nanoparticles and metamaterials to achieve enhanced luminescence and based on which to improve the performance of biosensing and light-emitting technologies. We designed and fabricated a spectrum of nanostructures to exhibit particular dispersion relations capable of controlling the spontaneous emission...

  • Motion detection algorithm using wavelet transform

    Creator:
    Lee, Jeongmin
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents an algorithm that estimates motion in image sequence using wavelet transform. The motion detection is performed under unfavorable conditions of background movement, change of brightness, and noise. The algorithm is tolerant to brightness changes, noise, and small movement in the background. The false alarm rate of motion...

  • Design of 28 GHz Low-Power Phased-Array Receiver Frontend in CMOS

    Creator:
    Garg, Robin
    Abstract:
    This work presents the design and implementation of a low power phased-array receiver frontend at 28 GHz in 65 nm CMOS. The frontend incorporates a low- power low-noise amplifier(LNA) and a passive reflection-type phase shifter (RTPS) capable of providing 360° phase shift with 5-bit phase resolution and low loss variation....

  • High-Resolution mm-wave Digitally Controlled Oscillator in CMOS

    Creator:
    Wang, Yunqi
    Abstract:
    All-digital PLLs promise flexible and precise frequency modulation continous-wave(FMCW) radar signal signal for 77GHz radar applications. Such PLLs require digitally-controlled oscillators(DCO) with wide frequency tuning range and high resolution to address a range of applications and low phase noise requirements. In this thesis, novel resonator structures with ne capacitance/inductance switching...

  • Target Localization Using Approximate Maximum Likelihood for MIMO Radar Systems

    Creator:
    Almalki, Abdulellah
    Abstract:
    This thesis deals with target localization using multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radars. In the field of communications, navigation, radar, and sensing networks, one of the common and most sophisticated problems is target localization. We develop a target localization scheme in distributed MIMO radar systems using bistatic range measurements. The localization approach...

  • Low-power millimeter-wave transceiver for short-range wireless and guided wave links

    Creator:
    Zhan, Kai
    Abstract:
    Low-power millimeter-wave (mm-wave) transceivers are of interest for achieving energy-efficient high data rate short-reach wireless and guided-wave links. Spatial modulation or space-shift keying (SSK) can provide energy efficiency improvements by using antenna-switching or transmission direction switching for data modulation. Such links are particularly attractive at millimeter-wave frequencies due to small...

  • A case for application-based linear transformers : applied towards text-to-spectrogram

    Creator:
    Agostinelli, Victor
    Abstract:
    Various natural language processing (NLP) tasks necessitate deep models that are fast, efficient, and small based on their ultimate application at the edge or elsewhere. While significant investigation has furthered the efficiency and reduced the size of these models, reducing their downstream latency without significant trade-offs remains a difficult task....
