Noise contribution to timing with fraction discriminators
نویسنده
چکیده
The noise contribution to timing with pulse discriminators processing a fraction of the detector signal amplitude is discussed. The types of discrimination techniques under study do not produce theoretical walk for varying amplitude signals with equal shapes. They are suitable for implementation in the readout of time of flight (TOF) system and tracker. The utilization of the pulse discrimination methods in the nanosecond range with low-noise front-end may require tentative search of the processor parameters to achieve better time resolution. Simulation methods that provide rapid and consistent evaluation of front-end noise contribution to the time resolution are discussed.

Signal Processing for Pico-second Resolution Timing Measurements
The development of large-area homogeneous photo-detectors with sub-millimeter path lengths for direct Cherenkov light and for secondary-electrons opens the possibility of large time-of-flight systems for relativistic particles with resolutions in the pico-second range. Modern ASIC techniques allow fast multi-channel front-end electronics capable of sub-pico-second resolution directly integrated...

To improve the engine performance and reduce emissions, factors such as changing ignition and injection timing along with converting of port injection system to direct injection in SI(spark-ignited) engines and hydrogen enrichment to CNG fuel at WOT conditions have a great importance. In this work, which was investigated experimentally (for CNG engine) and theoretically (for combustion Eddy Bre...
متن کاملRole of STDP in regulation of neural timing networks in human: a simulation study
Many physiological events require an accurate timing signal, usually generated by neural networks called central pattern generators (CPGs). On the other hand, properties of neurons and neural networks (e.g. time constants of neurons and weights of network connections) alter with time, resulting in gradual changes in timing of such networks. Recently, a synaptic weight adjustment mechanism has b...

Background: The main result of hearing impairment is reduction of speech perception. Patient with auditory neuropathy can hear but they can not understand. Their difficulties have been traced to timing related deficits, revealing the importance of the neural encoding of timing cues for understanding speech. Objective: In the present study psychoacoustic perception (minimal noticeable differen...
