2. 1. Pipeline Analog-Digital Converters Dynamic Error Modeling for Calibration : Integral Nonlinearity Modeling, Pipeline ADC Calibration, Wireless Channel K-Factor Estimation

   Author : Samer Medawar; Peter Händel; Niclas Björsell; Magnus Jansson; Dominique Dallet; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Analog-digital converter; integral nonlinearity; calbiration; K-factor estimation;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with the characterization, modeling and calibration of pipeline analog-digital converters (ADC)s. The integral nonlinearity (INL) is characterized, modeled and the model is used to design a post-correction block in order to compensate the imperfections of the ADC. READ MORE

4. 2. Analytic Parameterization of Stabilizing Controllers for the Moore-Greitzer Compressor Model

   Author : Alina Andersson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nonlinear control; Moore-Greitzer compressor model; Dynamic output feedback; Compressors; Nonlinear control systems; Stability robustness; Constraints; Nonlinearity; Lyapunov stability;

   Abstract : This work presents an extension, simplification and application of a design procedure for dynamic output feedback design for systems with nonlinearities satisfying quadratic constraints (QC). Our method was motivated by the challenges of output feedback control design for the three-state Moore-Greitzer (MG) compressor model. READ MORE

5. 3. Modeling and post-correction of pipeline analog-digital converters

   Author : Samer Medawar; Peter Händel; Martin Gustafsson; KTH; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Integral nonlinearity (INL) for pipelined analog-digital converters (ADCs) operating at radio frequency is measured and characterized. A parametric model for the INL of pipelined ADCs is proposed and the corresponding least-squares problem is formulated and solved. READ MORE

6. 4. Four contributions to statistical inference in econometrics

   Author : Bruno Eklund; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : This thesis, which consists of four chapters, focuses on three topics: discriminating between stationary and nonstationary time series, testing the constancy of the error covariance matrix of a vector model, and estimating density functions over bounded domains using kernel techniques. In Chapter 1, “Testing the unit root hypothesis against the logistic smooth transition autoregressive model”, and Chapter 2, “A nonlinear alternative to the unit root hypothesis”, the joint hypothesis of unit root and linearity allows one to distinguish between random walk processes, with or without drift, and stationary nonlinear processes of the smooth transition autoregressive type.
