  1. 1. Design of Ultra-Low-Power Analog-to-Digital Converters

    Author : Dai Zhang; Atila Alvandpour; Trond Ytterdal; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : analog-to-digital converter; ADC; successive approximation register; SAR; SAR ADC; ultra-low-power; power consumption bounds; medical implant devices;

    Abstract : Power consumption is one of the main design constraints in today’s integrated circuits. For systems powered by small non-rechargeable batteries over their entire lifetime, such as medical implant devices, ultra-low power consumption is paramount. READ MORE

  2. 2. High-Temperature Analog and Mixed-Signal Integrated Circuits in Bipolar Silicon Carbide Technology

    Author : Raheleh Hedayati; Carl-Mikael Zetterling; H. Alan Mantooth; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; silicon carbide SiC ; bipolar junction transistor BJT ; high temperature; SiC integrated circuit; Spice Gummel-Poon SGP ; operational amplifier opamp ; negative feedback amplifier; bandgap reference; masterslave comparator; digital-to-analog converter DAC ; analog-to-digital converter ADC ; flash ADC; successive approximation register SAR ADC; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Silicon carbide (SiC) integrated circuits (ICs) can enable the emergence of robust and reliable systems, including data acquisition and on-site control for extreme environments with high temperature and high radiation such as deep earth drilling, space and aviation, electric and hybrid vehicles, and combustion engines. In particular, SiC ICs provide significant benefit by reducing power dissipation and leakage current at temperatures above 300 °C compared to the Si counterpart. READ MORE

  3. 3. Bit-Wise Decoders for Coded Modulation and Broadcast Coded Slotted ALOHA

    Author : Mikhail Ivanov; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mutual information; vehicular communications; bit-interleaved coded modulation; error floor; slotted ALOHA; medium access control; All-to-all broadcast;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with two aspects of wireless communications. The first aspect is about efficient point-to-point data transmission. To achieve high spectral efficiency, coded modulation, which is a concatenation of higher order modulation with error correction coding, is used. READ MORE

  4. 4. ADC modeling for system simulation

    Author : Kalle Folkesson; Jacob Wikner; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Modem system design methods are based on early system simulation using behavioral models. Since the ADC often is the critical component it is especially important that it is mode led correctly. Most current design environments use very simple ADC models such as ideal sampling and quantization to give a certain effective number of bits (ENOB). READ MORE

  5. 5. Stochastic epidemics on random networks

    Author : Abid Ali Lashari; Pieter Trapman; Filip Lindskog; Peter Neal; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Branching process; Configuration model; Random graph; Epidemic process; Final size; Threshold behaviour; Duration of an epidemic; Vaccination; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

    Abstract : This thesis considers stochastic epidemic models for the spread of epidemics in structured populations. The asymptotic behaviour of the models is analysed by using branching process approximations. The thesis contains four manuscripts. READ MORE
