The wideband RF receiver in a software-defined radio (SDR) system suffers from the nonlinear effects caused by the front-end analog processing. In the presence of strong blocker (interference) signals, nonlinearities introduce severe cross modulation over ...
NOVELTY - The apparatus has an optical unit for splitting a source field to produce and combine reference and biomedical sample light fields. An optical and electronic unit records a spectral interference pattern between combined light fields. A controlled ...
This paper describes the implementation of a 12-bit 230 MS/s pipelined ADC using a conventional 1.8V, 0.18μm digital CMOS process. Two-stage folded cascode OTA topology is used for improved settling performance. Extreme low-skew (less than 3ps peak-to-peak ...
In wireless portable applications, a large part of the signal processing is performed in the digital domain. Digital circuits show many advantages. The power consumption and fabrication costs are low even for high levels of complexity. A well established a ...
A new technique for real-time processing of arbitrary optical signals is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. A parametric processor was used to form multiple signal copies, synchronize intercopy delays, and perform simultaneous sampling of spectrally ...

The Integrated Actuators Laboratory (LAI) of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) has been developping for several years a force feedback keyboard which is able to imitate the touch of the piano, the harpsichord and the organ. The deve ...
Mixed-signal systems combine analog and digital signal processing in one overall design that should be integrated as a single system on chip. At system level, the separation into isolated subsystem representations for analog and digital parts needs to be o ...
Multi-bit feedback, being one way of lowering ΔΣ modulators power consumption, has a major obstacle: the number of components in the internal analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and digital-to-analog converter (DAC). Nevertheless, the number of comparators i ...
FMRI time course processing is traditionally performed using linear regression followed by statistical hypothesis testing. While this analysis method is robust against noise, it relies strongly on the signal model. In this paper, we propose a non-parametri ...

In this paper, we propose a theoretical model for the error propagation phenomenon generated by a frame loss in a distributed video coding framework. Using rate-distortion functions, we analyze the impact of a frame loss on the average distortion of a grou ...
