In this paper a new design for 6 bit DMTL phase shifter with only 32 MEMS switches is proposed. The reduction in number of switches in ordinary 6 bit phase shifter from 63 to 32 is due to combination of one 5.625 degree for least significant bit and 11.25 degree for the rest of the switches. Decreasing the number of the switches reduces the die-size as well as loss of the CPW line. Analytical s...

In future high-speed self-routing photonic networks based on all-optical time division multiplexing (OTDM) it is highly desirable to carry out packet switching, clock recovery and demultplexing in the optical domain in order to avoid the bottleneck due to the optoelectronics conversion. In this paper we propose a self-routing OTDM node structure composed of an all-optical router and demultiplex...

The purpose of this paper is to clarify the temporary threshold shifts in fingertip vibratory sensation produced by hand-transmitted vibrations that have the same equivalent tool vibration levels according to the JIS B 4900 determination method. The JIS B 4900 standard is based on vibration exposure dose values. Therefore, even though the vibration exposure pattern is varied, the severity of vi...

vibration in the air slide tables of ultra precision machines prevents gaining accuracies within nanometer level. in this work, dissimilar types of internal vibration including small vibrations and pneumatic hammers have been tested and some measures have been offered to reduce their effects. this paper has also proceeded to the vibration tests on the air slide tables built with different numbe...

today there are different vibration isolators used in industries according to the weight and excitation frequency of the machines which have vibration. one of them is air spring which is in two types: convoluted air spring and membrane air spring. convoluted air springs are used to control vibrations in low frequency (usually lower than 10 hz) and the membrane ones are used in high frequency (u...

We present an optoelectronic module called the equivalency-processing parallel photonic integrated circuit (EP(3)IC) that is created specifically to implement high-speed parallel equivalence searches (i.e., database word searches). The module combines a parallel-computation model with multiwavelength photonic integrated-circuit technology to achieve high-speed data processing. On the basis of s...

structural dynamic parameters: natural period, shape modes and damping ratio of vibration, play a decisive role on the seismic behavior of those structures. there are several methods for determining of the structural dynamic parameters, such as: free vibration, ambient vibration and force vibration tests. in this research the structural response of a three-story building (the natural frequencie...

in this paper the problem of minimizing the total transmitting power subject to a fixedtotal bit rate in ofdm systems is considered. upper bounds on transmitting power and bit rate ofeach subcarrier can also be taken into account. in practice, the number of bits of each subcarriershould be integer and nonnegative. in this paper an analytical optimal solution is derived for thecase of assuming t...

Application of quantum-dot is a promising technology for implementing digital systems at nano-scale.  Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) is a system with low power consumption and a potentially high density and regularity. Also, QCA supports the new devices with nanotechnology architecture. This technique works </...

Display-camera communication has become a promising direction in both computer vision and wireless communication communities. However, the consistency of the channel measurement is an open issue since precise calibration of the experimental setting has not been fully studied in the literatures. This paper focuses on establishing a scheme for precise calibration of the display-camera channel per...
