The ability to design efficient distributed communications systems heavily depends on a proper understanding of the distortion incurred by their constituting elements. To this end, we study the mean squared reconstruction error behavior of the distributed ...
The Laboratoire d’Electronique Industrielle has realized an active noise controller. The system is designed to efficiently attenuate low frequency transformer noise where passive methods are either ineffective or tend to be very expensive. This paper descr ...
This paper presents a new Procedural Analog Design tool called PAD. It is a chart-based design environment dedicated to the design of analog circuits aiming to optimise design and quality by finding good tradeoffs. This interactive tool allows step-by-step ...
In some remote sensing applications, the functional relationship between the source being observed and the sensor readings may not be known. Because of communication constraints, this uncertainty may result in poor end-to-end distortion. If the sensors hav ...

We consider sensor networks that measure spatio-temporal correlated processes. An important task in such settings is the reconstruction at a certain node, called the sink, of the data at all points of the field. We consider scenarios where data is time cri ...
This paper highlights some effects of an asymmetrical design on three phase multilevel inverters from a supply network point of view. The investigated topology is based on a series connection of single phase inverters (partial cell) in each phase. Each par ...
This paper presents a rate-distortion analysis for a simple horizon edge image model. A quadtree with anisotropy and rotation is performed in this kind of image, giving a toy model for a non-linear adaptive coding technique, and its rate-distortion behavio ...
A configurable converter topology is presented as front-end converter for a locomotive that can be operated as well on a high voltage ac-system as on a medium voltage dc-system. The configurable converter is realized on the base of a multilevel chain, wher ...
Within the framework of an outdoor active noise control project, a need arose, namely to establish whether electrodynamic loudspeakers are likely to be affected by the primary noise or by the interactions between them. The aim of this thesis is therefore t ...
This paper proposes a rate-distortion optimal a posteriori quantization scheme for Matching Pursuit coefficients. The a posteriori quantization applies to a Matching Pursuit expansion that has been generated off-line, and cannot benefit of any feedback loo ...
