X-Band Aom On Chip

Tobias Kippenberg, Junqiu Liu, Anat Siddharth

Silicon Nitride integrated photonic circuits have drawn much attention owing to its ultra-low loss and large Kerr nonlinearity. However, the lack of Pockels effect makes it difficult to be modulated clectro-optically, which posts a major challenge for the ...

A 32 Gb/s PAM-16 TX and ADC-Based RX AFE with 2-tap embedded analog FFE in 28 nm FDSOI

Yusuf Leblebici, Ayça Akkaya, Firat Çelik

This paper presents a 32 Gb/s 16-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-16) source-series-terminated transmitter (TX) and a receiver (RX) analog front-end (AFE) in 28 nm FDSOI. The 8-way time-interleaved successive-approximation register (SAR) analog-to-dig ...

Enhanced-DAB Converter: Comprehensive Design Evaluation

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Armin Jafari, Mohammad Samizadeh Nikooytabalvandani, Furkan Karakaya

Soft switching in dual-active-bridge (DAB) converters enables their efficient operation at high frequencies, where the reduction in the size of magnetic components could result in ultra-high power densities. Nonetheless, losing soft-switching at high frequ ...

Saturation of the response to stochastic forcing in two-dimensional backward-facing step flow: A self-consistent approximation

François Gallaire, Vladislav Mantic Lugo

Selective noise amplifiers are characterized by large linear amplification to external perturbations in a particular frequency range despite their global linear stability. Applying a stochastic forcing with increasing amplitude, the response undergoes a st ...

Crowding suppresses the N1 wave

Michael Herzog, Gijs Plomp, Vitaly Chicherov

Flankers can strongly deteriorate performance on a visual target (crowding). For example, vernier offset discrimination is strongly affected by neighboring flankers. Interestingly, performance for longer and shorter flankers is better than performance for ...

Universal and efficient compressed sensing by spread spectrum and application to realistic Fourier imaging techniques

Pierre Vandergheynst, Yves Wiaux, Rémi Gribonval, Gilles Puy

We advocate a compressed sensing strategy that consists of multiplying the signal of interest by a wide bandwidth modulation before projection onto randomly selected vectors of an orthonormal basis. Firstly, in a digital setting with random modulation, con ...

Analysis of Anticipation Related Potentials for Brain Computer Interaction

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Gangadhar Garipelli

Anticipation is a mental process during which a person actively engages in a phase required for the sensory perception and execution of the optimal actions at the arrival of the relevant future events. Since this process occurs before the execution of an i ...

Governing the speed of a light signal in optical fibers : Brillouin slow and fast light

Sang Hoon Chin

Dynamic control of the speed of a light signal, based on stimulated Brillouin scattering in optical fibers, was theoretically studied and also experimentally demonstrated as the core object of this thesis. To date, slow light based on stimulated Brillouin ...

Novel speech processing techniques for robust automatic speech recognition

Vivek Tyagi

The goal of this thesis is to develop and design new feature representations that can improve the automatic speech recognition (ASR) performance in clean as well noisy conditions. One of the main shortcomings of the fixed scale (typically 20-30 ms long ana ...
