Transmission Scheme for 2D Antenna Array MIMO Systems with Limited Feedback

Three-dimensional (3D) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems exploit spatial richness and provide another degree of freedom to transmit signals and eliminate spatial interference. Currently, however, there is no 3D codebook for two-dimensional (2D) antenna array MIMO systems with limited feedback. In this paper, based on the existing 2D codebook, we present a limited feedback and transmission scheme for 2D antenna array MIMO systems. In this scheme, the mobile station (MS) has imperfect channel knowledge, and the base station (BS) only acquires partial information relating the channel instantiation. MS must feed back two channel state information (CSI) instances, i.e., the horizontal and vertical CSIs. After receiving the two CSI instances, the BS interpolates a new vertical precoding vector using the vertical CSI. Then, the BS re-constructs a 3D beamforming vector using horizontal and vertical precoding vectors and compensates the reported horizontal channel quality indicator. System level simulation is employed, and the simulation results show that the proposed method improves the system spectral efficiency and the cell-edge SE significantly.     

利用改善的静态隐含策略加速等价性验证

随着近年来高效SAT(Satisfiability)求解算法提出，SAT已成为集成电路形式验证方法中重要引擎之一。但在运用SAT验证时需将电路结构转化为成OR-AND两级逻辑描述，丢失了电路的拓扑信息。本文利用改善的静态隐含策略来提取有用子句作为预处理，来加快验证过程。本文算法在原有静态隐含技术的基础上，引入了关联节点隐含及隐含过程加速策略。给出的ISCAS85电路的实验结果表明算法的有效性。     

Analysis of error in the fixed-point implementation of two-dimensional discrete wavelet transforms

Computational error due to the fixed-point implementation of two-dimensional (2-D) discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is analyzed. This analysis is based on the exact knowledge of the DWT analysis and synthesis filters and the word length of the original image. In the fixed-point implementation, it is crucial to understand and analyze effects of finite precision in filters coefficients as well as rounding of intermediate calculations for the purpose of storage and/or transmission. Analyses and formulations are presented for both convolution and lifting approaches and they are validated by Monte Carlo simulations. The specific example used throughout this work is the lossy wavelet transformation used in the JPEG2000 compression standard.     

Ultra-wideband bandpass filter on aperture-backed microstrip line

A novel ultra-wideband (UWB) bandpass filter is proposed on an aperture-backed microstrip line. With an aperture on the ground, a non-uniform resonator is constructed with the first three resonant modes occurring within the UWB band while the parallel coupling between resonator and feeders is largely enhanced. The designed filter exhibits good UWB passband behaviour with insertion loss <1.0 dB and group delay variation <0.25 ns.     

Modeling study of the impact of surface roughness on silicon and Germanium UTB MOSFETs

We outlined a simple model to account for the surface roughness (SR)-induced enhanced threshold voltage (V/sub TH/) shifts that were recently observed in ultrathin-body MOSFETs fabricated on <100> Si surface. The phenomena of enhanced V/sub TH/ shifts can be modeled by accounting for the fluctuation of quantization energy in the ultrathin body (UTB) MOSFETs due to SR up to a second-order approximation. Our model is then used to examine the enhanced V/sub TH/ shift phenomena in other novel surface orientations for Si and Ge and its impact on gate workfunction design. We also performed a calculation of the SR-limited hole mobility (/spl mu//sub H,SR/) of p-MOSFETs with an ultrathin Si and Ge active layer thickness, T/sub Body/<10 nm. Calculation of the electronic band structures is done within the effective mass framework via the Luttinger Kohn Hamiltonian, and the mobility is calculated using an isotropic approximation for the relaxation time calculation, while retaining the full anisotropy of the valence subband structure. For both Si and Ge, the dependence of /spl mu//sub H,SR/ on the surface orientation, channel orientation, and T/sub Body/ are explored. It was found that a <110> surface yields the highest /spl mu//sub H,SR/. The increasing quantization mass m/sub z/ for <110> surface renders its /spl mu//sub H,SR/ less susceptible with the decrease of T/sub Body/. In contrast, <100> surface exhibits smallest /spl mu//sub H,SR/ due to its smallest m/sub z/. The SR parameters, i.e. autocorrelation length (L) and root-mean-square (/spl Delta//sub rms/) used in this paper is obtained from the available experimental result of Si<100> UTB MOSFETs, by adjusting these SR parameters to obtain a theoretical fit with experimental data on SR-limited mobility and V/sub TH/ shifts. This set of SR parameters is then employed for all orientations of both Si and Ge devices.

A throughput-efficient adaptive transmit-receive scheme for indoor DS-UWB systems

In this paper, a novel adaptive transmit-receive scheme is presented for indoor Direct Sequence Ultra-WideBand （DS-UWB） systems. In the proposed scheme, a simple switch module is introduced to improve the system throughput. Furthermore, adaptive detection is implemented via an improved Least Mean Squares （LMS） algorithm. The convergence behavior and the Bit Error Rate （BER） performance of the proposed scheme are examined under the realistic channel models. Simulation results show that, nearly without loss of the BER performance, the proposed scheme can obtain at least 2/3 improvement in training overhead compared with the conventional approach.

A high-efficiency high-power evanescently coupled UTC-photodiode

The effects of the multimode diluted waveguide on quantum efficiency and saturation behavior of the evanescently coupled uni-traveling carrier(UTC)photodiode structures are reported.Two kinds of evanescently coupled uni-traveling carrier photodiodes(EC-UTC-PD)were designed and characterized:one is a conventional EC-UTC-PD structure with a multimode diluted waveguide integrated with a UTC-PD;and the other is a compact EC-UTC-PD structure which fused the multimode diluted waveguide and the UTC-PD structure together.The effect of the absorption behavior of the photodiodes on the efficiency and saturation characteristics of the EC-UTC-PDs is analyzed using 3-D beam propagation method,and the results indicate that both the responsivity and saturation power of the compact EC-UTC-PD structures can be further improved by incorporating an optimized compact multimode diluted waveguide.
