A 0.14-nJ/b 200-Mb/s 2.7-3.5-GHz Quasi-Balanced FSK Transceiver With PLL-Based Modulation and Sideband Energy Detection
This paper describes a balanced frequency shift keying (FSK) modulation, namely quasi-balanced FSK (QB-FSK), for energy-efficient high-data-rate communication. Not suffering from data-pattern dependency, the proposed modulation method enables frequency mod ...
Piscataway2024Electric-field-induced second-order nonlinear processes in stoichiometric silicon nitride
Nonlinear optical frequency conversion is one of the driving research areas in photonics. Its quasi instantaneous response and the promise of low power consumption in integrated structures could cover the demand for fast signal processing with minimal ener ...
EPFL2024Graph Exploration for Effective Multiagent Q-Learning
This article proposes an exploration technique for multiagent reinforcement learning (MARL) with graph-based communication among agents. We assume that the individual rewards received by the agents are independent of the actions by the other agents, while ...
Ieee-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc2024Numerical and experimental investigations of a microwave interferometer for the negative ion source SPIDER
