Comment on Y.-H. Hsu et al., "electrical and mechanical fully coupled theory and experimental verification of Rosen-type piezoelectric transformers" [see reference [1]]

This letter discusses the difference between piezoelectric constitutive relations for the case of one-dimensional stress and the case of one-dimensional strain, and its implications in the modeling of Rosen piezoelectric transformers.     

Conference key distribution schemes for secure digital mobilecommunications

We propose a new service for digital mobile communication systems. The service enables two or more users to hold a secure conference. Two requirements must be considered: privacy and authentication. Privacy involves ensuring that an eavesdropper cannot intercept the conversations of the parties holding the conference. Authentication involves ensuring that service is not obtained fraudulently in order to avoid usage charges. We present two new conference key distribution schemes for digital mobile communication systems. In these schemes, a group of users can generate a common secret keg over a public channel so that they may hold a secure conference     

Transient hot-electron effect and its impact on circuit reliability

Transient hot-electron effect and its impact on circuit reliability are investigated. The rate of device decay is monitored as a function of the gate pulse transient period. Simulation results reveal that excess charges during a fast turn off time may cause an increase in the maximum substrate current. This, along with our experimental data, identifies that transient excess carrier may cause the enhancement of device degradation under certain stress conditions. The enhancement factor of the degradation is a function of the gate pulse transient time. Correlation between the analysis based upon AC/DC measurement and calculations based upon transient simulation are shown in the paper. Better agreement with experimental data is obtained by using the transient analysis and on chip test/stress structures. The correlation between AC and DC stress data is also shown based on the impact ionization model. A hot-electron design guideline is proposed based on the circuit reliability analysis. This guideline can help improve the circuit reliability without adversely effecting the circuit performance.

A newly robust controller design for the position control ofpermanent-magnet synchronous motor

A robust controller which is designed by employing variable-structure control and linear-quadratic method is presented for a permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) position control system. It is to achieve accurate control performance in the presence of plant parameter variation and load disturbance. In addition, it possesses the design flexibility of the conventional state feedback control. It is applied to the position control of a PMSM. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed approach gives a better position response and is robust to parameter variations and load disturbance

Optical dot gain on newsprint determined with the Lund nuclear microprobe

A technique for measuring optical dot gain, i.e. the relative difference between the actual screen dot and the optically perceived one, is presented. By combining measurements from the non-optical nuclear microprobe with data from image analyzing technique the optical dot gain can be determined. The procedure to reach pixel by pixel correlation on a micrometer scale is discussed. In the newsprint sample studied in this investigation a typical optical dot gain between 15 and 20% was deduced. The variation in the optical dot gain was correlated with other characteristic parameters of the print and newsprint and especially a positive correlation to the mass density of the newsprint was observed.

Reply to comments on “Error rate performance of theprojection code”

The authors reply to the comments by Koppelaar and Tolhuizen (see ibid. vol.46, no.9, p.573, 1998). They state that the optimum choice of the slopes used to perform the encoding process in a projection code always results in maximizing the minimum Hamming distance so that d=2 ^r
