RF Linearity Analysis In Nano Scale CMOS Using Harmonic Balance Device Simulations
(2008-09-09)
In this thesis, Intermodulation Linearity characteristics of CMOS have been
analyzed using power series and Harmonic Balance(HB) Method. Harmonic Bal-
ance method is a frequency domain steady state analysis method used ...
Analysis of Simulated Performance of Integrated Vector Tracking and Navigation Loops for GPS
(2008-09-09)
An alternative GPS signal tracking method that uses an extended Kalman-Bucy filter in place of traditional independent, parallel tracking loops is presented in this thesis. Furthermore, this method is extended into a ...
Built-In Self-Test of Programmable Resources in Microcontroller Based System-on-Chips
(2008-09-09)
System-on-Chip (SoC) implementations typically incorporate embedded Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) cores to take advantage of the programmable logic and routing resources provided by FPGAs. Testing the FPGA core ...
3D Device Simulation of SEU-Induced Charge Collection in 200 GHz SiGe HBTs
(2008-09-09)
This thesis presents three dimensional device simulations of SEU (single-event
upset)-induced charge collection in 200 GHz SiGe HBTs. The device was constructed
and simulated using Davinci.
The charge collected by each ...
Hierarchical Fault Collapsing for Logic Circuits
(2008-09-09)
The process of grouping stuck-at faults into equivalence or dominance classes and
then selecting one representative for each class is known as fault collapsing. There
have been several techniques to collapse the faults ...
Built-In Self Test for Regular Structure Embedded Cores in System-on-Chip
(2008-09-09)
Miniaturization and integration of different cores onto a single chip are increasing
the complexity of VLSI chips. To ensure that these chips operate as desired, they
have to be tested at various phases of their development. ...
Cooperative Robotics Using Wireless Communication
(2008-09-09)
Cooperative Robotics has to do with the use of multiple robotic agents assisting each other to perform a task that is either too difficult or impossible for one robot to perform alone. It is a multi-disciplinary field ...
Heterogeneity-Aware Approaches to Optimizing Performance of Computing and Communication Tasks
(2008-09-09)
As the domain of computing and communication systems grows, heterogeneity among computers and subnetworks employed for a task also increases. It is important to understand how heterogeneity affects performance of computing ...
A Robust Software Radio Testset for Research and Laboratory Instruction
(2008-09-09)
Since the mid-1990s, communication technology has advanced dramatically, making it possible to achieve high data rates for both enterprise and individual users. The rapid and widespread deployment of wireless communications ...
Topics in Multisensor Maneuvering Target Tracking
(2008-09-09)
Tracking uses models of the real environment to estimate the past and present and even predict the future state of a moving object from noisy observations of uncertain origin. In a tracking
scenario the most critical ...
