Recruitment data for nerve cuff electrodes: implications for designof implantable stimulators

Recruitment characteristics of nerve cuff electrodes implanted in four cats for five months were measured. Monopolar, bipolar, and tripolar configurations were considered. Approximately twice the current was required to achieve a given response using the tripolar configuration as compared with monopolar stimulation. Bipolar stimulation also required more current than monopolar stimulation. Using the recruitment data, a number of strategies for modulating muscle tension were considered. It was shown that both pulse amplitude and pulse duration should be software-selectable to achieve adequate control of muscle tension when using either pulse amplitude modulation or pulse duration modulation. When using pulse amplitude modulation, it was found to be desirable to operate at a low pulse duration in the high end of the allowable range for pulse amplitude. For pulse duration modulation, one should operate at a low pulse amplitude in the high end of the allowable range for pulse duration. The effect of pulse amplitude and pulse duration step size on the maximum step change in muscle tension and the linearity of the recruitment curves were examined. The use of logarithmic steps in the modulation parameter was examined and was shown to result in improved controllability and linearity.

Improvements in fiber-optic transmission of multicarrier TV signal

When the number of TV channels is high, a significant harmonic and intermodulation distortion arises. These distortions can be reduced by improving the modulation linearity of the laser or by applying a more appropriate modulation method. Both solutions are discussed and evaluated in detail. The linearity has been significantly improved by applying an active matching technique. The improvement achieved by the new driving circuit over the conventional one is 15 dB considering the third harmonic distortion. The sensitivity of QPSK TV transmission to disturbing interferences has been investigated. A so-called group modulation method offers a better approach for optical multicarrier TV transmission     

Impact of device geometry and doping strategy on linearity and RF performance in Si/SiGe MODFETs

Based on careful calibration in respect of 70 nm n-type strained Si channel Si/SiGe modulation doped FETs (MODFETs) fabricated by Daimler Chrysler, numerical simulations have been used to study the impact of the device geometry and various doping strategies on device performance and linearity. Both the lateral and vertical layer structures are crucial to achieve high RF performance or high linearity. The simulations suggest that gate length scaling helps to achieve higher RF performance, but degrades the linearity. Doped channel devices are found to be promising for high linearity applications. Trade-off design strategies are required for reconciling the demands of high device performance and high linearity simultaneously.
