We present an iterative method for constructing additive envelopes of continuous functions on a compact set, with contact at a specified point. For elements of a class of submodular functions we provide closed-form expressions for such additive envelopes. ...
The impulse radio-ultra wide band (IR-UWB) signalling format has been an attractive mode for wireless communication in wireless sensor node system. The super-regenerative principle can be used for impulse reception for its inherent advantages. The oscillat ...

A large class of systems of biological and technological relevance can be described as analog networks, that is, collections of dynamical devices interconnected by links of varying strength. Some examples of analog networks are genetic regulatory networks, ...
The recent advances made in MEMS and particularly in RF MEMS technology are enabling new architectures for the integration of RF transceivers with improved performance and smaller size. Several fundamental building blocks benefit from the availability of h ...
The first commercially available teslameter with a fully integrated 3-axis Hall probe is described. The Hall probe chip contains horizontal and vertical Hall elements, analogue electronics, and a synchronisation circuit. A horizontal Hall element measures ...

In ferroic materials, the dielectric, piezoelectric, magnetic, and elastic coefficients are significantly affected by the motion of domain walls. This motion can be described as the propagation of a wall across various types and strengths of pinning center ...
Modern society is dependent on reliable electricity for security, health, communication, transportation, finance, computers and nearly all aspects of the contemporary life. Providing reliable electricity is a very complex challenge. It involves real-time m ...
A very low power mixed-signal design methodology based on subthreshold source-coupled circuits is presented, and a nano-Watt range analog-to-digital converter (ADC) circuit based on folding-interpolating topology is proposed as a complete design example. T ...
A novel frequency synthesizer with a strong emphasis on low-power consumption (2mW) was developed for this thesis. A BAW-resonator was used for the design of the high-frequency oscillator. The BAW's high Q-Factor ensured a minimal power consumption, while ...
