We comment on a recent Letter [Opt. Lett. 35, 4121 (2010)], in which the authors discuss an optimal pulse-width modulation (OPWM) method for sinusoidal fringe generation. We consider that the comparison of the squared binary method (SBM) and the sinusoidal pulse-width modulation (SPWM) method has considerable deficiencies.

This paper studies the consensus problem for multi-agent systems. A distributed consensus algorithm is developed by constructing homogeneous pulse width modulators for agents in the network. In particular, a certain percentage of the sampling period named duty cycle is modulated according to some state difference with respect to the neighbors at each sampling instant. During each duty cycle, th...

This paper sprays five hybrid pulse width modulation strategies for three level inverters in FPGA platform. The proposed hybrid-modulation strategy is an amalgamation of fundamental-frequency modulation and any carrier based pulse width modulation (SPWM) invoking the performance of the well-known carrier based PWM modulations. The main philosophy of this modulation is the reduction of switching...

Unfortunately, traditional RF pulse measurements become less effective predictors of performance in radars that use pulse compression. For example, the width of an uncompressed radar pulse is directly related to spatial resolution. In contrast, the resolution depends on pulse width, chirp bandwidth and chirp linearity in a compressed radar system that uses linear frequency modulated (LFM) chirp...

Inverters inherently have the property of controlling output frequency but the output voltage can’t be varied. Usually to vary output voltage we have to vary supply voltage which is not always possible for this reason PWM techniques gained momentum. Basic aim of PWM technique is to control output voltage and harmonic reduction. Pulse-width modulation (PWM), or pulseduration modulation (PDM), is...

This paper proposes a single-phase five-level inverter with a modified pulse width-modulated (PWM)control scheme. The modified pulse width-modulation technique is developed to reduce switching loss.Also, the proposed multilevel inverter can reduce the requirement of power switches compared to aconventional cascaded multilevel inverter. The modes of operation, control signals, and operatingprinc...

We have proposed a novel driving concept for TFT-OLEDs, pulse-width modulation with current uniformization. This driving method can simultaneously achieve precise grayscale and exceedingly improve luminance uniformity. Lately, we succeeded to reduce the number of TFTs in a pixel circuit from nine to seven. Especially in this paper, its working and tolerance against characteristic deviations of ...
