  1. 1. Integration of Planar Antennas with MMIC Active Frontends for THz Imaging Applications

    Author : Yogesh Karandikar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sub-Harmonic Resistive Mixer; Planar Antennas; Gaussian Coupling; MMIC; Gilbert Cell Mixer; THz;

    Abstract : In recent years, there has been constant growth in using THz frequencies or mm, sub- mm wavelengths for various applications such as: Astronomy, Atmospheric studies, security, bio-medical imaging. All these applications are now seen more feasible due to rapid enhancements of semi-conductor processing technologies. READ MORE

  2. 2. Generation and Transmission of Optical Solitons at Ultrahigh Bit Rates

    Author : Bamdad Bakhshi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nonlinear optics; chirp-free optical pulses; lowpass filtering; polarization-maintaining fibers; optical communication; optical solitons; Erbium fiber ring laser; dispersion-management; active mode-locking; soliton interactions; erbium-doped fiber amplifier; Gaussian pulses;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the generation and transmission of optical solitons in ultrahigh-speed fiber-optic communication systems. For optical soliton pulses the fiber dispersion and nonlinearity can under certain circumstances cancel each other, thus allowing the solitons to remain undistorted over long distances. READ MORE

  3. 3. Stochastic Resonance and Noise-Assisted Signal Transfer : On Coupling Effects of Stochastic Resonators and Spectral Optimization of Fluctuations in Random Network Switches

    Author : Peter Hammerstein; Claes Granqvist; Laszlo Kish; Hans Liljenström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering physics; stochastic resonance; nonlinear stochastic dynamics; noise and fluctuations; magnetic domains; Teknisk fysik; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : Recent research shows that noise or random fluctuations must not always be destructive in Nature by degrading system performance. On the contrary, in nonlinear systems they can synchronize systems or enhance the quality of signal transmission. The latter possibility is reported in the thesis. READ MORE

  4. 4. Approximation of Infinitely Divisible Random Variables with Application to the Simulation of Stochastic Processes

    Author : Magnus Wiktorsson; Matematisk statistik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; operations research; Statistics; aktuariematematik; Stochastic differential equation; Infinitely divisible distribution; Type G distribution; Lévy process; Stochastic integral; Mathematical Statistics; Matematik; Mathematics; programming; actuarial mathematics; Statistik; operationsanalys; programmering;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of four papers A, B, C and D. Paper A and B treats the simulation of stochastic differential equations (SDEs). The research presented therein was triggered by the fact that there were not any efficient implementations of the higher order methods for simulating SDEs. READ MORE

  5. 5. Mm-wave Radio Astronomy Instrumentation for the Onsala Space Observatory and SEST

    Author : Nicholas D. Whyborn; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mm-wave receiver; phase retrieval holography; focal plane imaging array; radio astronomy instrumentation; SIS mixer;

    Abstract : The thesis presents work done in developing instrumentation for mm- and submm-wave radio astronomy. The work described is in several fields. The greater part of the thesis is concerned with sensitive heterodyne receivers and in particular the cryogenically cooled mixers. In paper A the SEST telescope and its observing system are described. READ MORE
