چکیده

An experimental analysis of on-wafer S-parameter uncertainties is presented. Recently, two different approaches, based either on differential numerical programming or on a fully analytical solution have been introduced. In order estabilish their suitability, a careful comparison is here given for on-wafer meaurements. Through this comparison, possible limitations and causes of errors are also highlighted. Finally, the uncertainty evaluation of the 16-term error model is here presented for the first time.

Comparison of RF Inductor Performance Evaluation Methods

— Various model parameter calculation equations of RF CMOS inductors are compared. The calculation equations are using as variables either Y, Z-parameters or S-parameters. Results are based on on-wafer RF S-parameter measurements of a 3.75 turn spiral inductor fabricated in AMIS 0.7 μm CMOS DM1P n-well technology. Results obtained with calculation equations for a differentially driven inductor ...

A Combinatorial Algorithm for Fuzzy Parameter Estimation with Application to Uncertain Measurements

This paper presents a new method for regression model prediction in an uncertain environment. In practical engineering problems, in order to develop regression or ANN model for making predictions, the average of set of repeated observed values are introduced to the model as an input variable. Therefore, the estimated response of the process is also the average of a set of output values where th...

Canonical thermostatics of ideal gas in the frame work of generalized uncertainty principle

The statistical consequences of minimal length supposition are investigated for a canonical ensemble of ideal gas. These effects are encoded in the so-called Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) of the second order. In the frame work of the considered GUP scenario, a unique partition function is obtained by using of two different methods of quantum and classical approaches. It should be noti...

Impact of region of interest size and location in Gafchromic film dosimetry

Introduction: Accurate film dosimetry requires careful consideration of sources of uncertainty. Some of the sources of uncertainty are dependent on the size and location of region of interest (ROI), especially in small fields. Avoiding the penumbra is often a reason for using a small ROI. In contrast, choosing very small ROIs may increase uncertainty due to the reduction of th...
