The linear amplification with nonlinear component transmitter is a promising solution to high efficiency and high linearity amplification for non-constant envelope signals.An all-digital synthesizable baseband for a delay-based LINC transmitter is implemented.This paper proposes a standard-cell based synthesizable methodology which can be applied in the ASIC process efficiently without performance degradation compared to the manual layout.A scheme to overcome the limited resolution of conventional phase detectors is proposed.It employs alternative phase detector structures to provide reconfigurability for higher resolution after fabricating,resulting in an11 ps resolution improvement.Due to the PVT variation,an adaptive calibration scheme focusing on the inherent imbalance between two delay lines is depicted,which reveals an effective EVM enhancement of 5.37 d B.This baseband chip is implemented in 0.13 m CMOS technology,and the transmitter with the baseband has an EVM of –28.96 d B and an ACPR of –29.51 d B,meeting the design requirement. 相似文献
Manufacturing programmable materials, whose mechanical properties can be adapted on demand, is highly desired for their application in areas ranging from robotics, to biomedicine, or microfluidics. Herein, the inclusion of dynamic and living bonds, such as alkoxyamines, in a printable formulation suitable for two-photon 3D laser printing is exploited. On one hand, taking advantage of the dynamic covalent character of alkoxyamines, the nitroxide exchange reaction is investigated. As a consequence, a reduction of the Young´s Modulus by 50%, is measured by nanoindentation. On the other hand, due to its “living” characteristic, the chain extension becomes possible via nitroxide mediated polymerization. In particular, living nitroxide mediated polymerization of styrene results not only in a dramatic increase of the volume (≈8 times) of the 3D printed microstructure but also an increase of the Young's Modulus by two orders of magnitude (from 14 MPa to 2.7 GPa), while maintaining the shape including fine structural details. Thus, the approach introduces a new dimension by enabling to create microstructures with dynamically tunable size and mechanical properties. 相似文献
To effectively estimate the parameters of the multiple frequency-hopping signals, a blind parameter estimation method based on time–frequency diagram modification is proposed. Firstly, the observed signal is transformed to the time–frequency domain, using short time Fourier transform with overlapping windows. Then an energy detection method based on adaptive threshold is used to modify the time–frequency diagram, and the parameters of the frequency-hopping signals are finally obtained from the modified spectrogram. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the method proposed can get a clear time–frequency diagram at low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and its accuracy of parameter estimated is higher than that of previous methods. When SNR is ?10 dB, estimation errors of frequency, hopping time and hop duration is 0.0002, 0.0008 and 0.0013, respectively, which are about 1–2 orders of magnitude lower over the previous method.
The high-temperature corrosion of bulk silica glass was studied in pure oxygen and in SO3-containing oxygen atmospheres in the presence of liquid sulfate deposits at temperatures of 700° and 1000°C. No reaction and devitrification were observed without Na2SO4 on the surface. The wetting of the silica by the sulfate, the tendency toward basic fluxing, and the crystallization of the silica incrased with the activity of Na2O. The most extensive degradation of vitreous silica occurred by crystallization, and the resulting spalling under basic conditions and thermal cycling at basic conditions were parabolic. This behavior is explained by a model in which the crystallization is controlled by sodium at the glass-crystal interface and its diffusion into the glass. This sodium diffuses into the glass before crystallization and is swept ahead of the crystallization front. 相似文献
