: The input chattering in the sliding mode control (SMC) is alleviated through a low pass filter. When the low pass filter is added to the original system, the overall system including the low pass filter dynamics can not satisfy the matching condition. So the integral SMC is applied for a main controller. A sliding surfaces are designed carefully to make the overall dynamics same with the nomi...

Introduction Non-invasive Fluorescent Reflectance Imaging (FRI) is used for accessing physiological and molecular processes in biological media. The aim of this article is to separate the overlapping emission spectra of quantum dots within tissue-equivalent phantom using SVD, Jacobi SVD, and NMF methods in the FRI mode. Materials and Methods In this article, a tissue-like phantom and an optical...

—The impact of the type of implementation is considered on the IR-UWB channel capacity. This study is lead for analog and mostly digital implementation. Key parameters and theirs impacts on the channel capacity are exposed in each case: data converters for mostly digital implementations and pulse generators capabilities for analog implementations. These two implementations are compared from a d...

The low pass filter is used in many application of microwave communication. Therefore it is necessary to design a good low pass filter for the faithful reproduction of wanted signals. Previously used methods to design the low pass filter using insertion loss method don’t give a very good flat response. So, a new method has been proposed for the filter design which gives a good response as compa...

Any Band-Pass filter may be converted into a tunable filter with a single tuning parameter through the use of a new Tunable Heterodyne Band-Pass Filter concept in which the frequency of the heterodyne signal is adjusted thereby translating the entire filter transfer function in frequency. If the fixed filter is selected to be a narrow-band band-pass filter, the new Tunable Heterodyne Band-Pass ...

A new universal current mode filter circuit composed by three multi-output second generation current conveyor circuits (MOCCII), two controlled active resistances and two passive capacitors is presented. This filter can realize all the five standard filter functions, namely low pass, band pass, high pass, notch and all pass, without changing the circuit topology. TSPICE simulation using 0.18 μm...
