A Faraday wheel (FW)-an electric generator of constant electrical polarity that produces huge currents-could be implemented in an existing tokamak to study high-gain high-field (HGHF) fusion plasma, such as the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST). HGHF plasma can be realized in EAST by updating its pulsed-power system to compress plasma in two steps by induction fields; high ga...

A high gain conformal antenna is proposed having E-shaped patch to be used in SHF frequency range. A comprehensive parametric study has been carried out to understand the effects of various dielectric substrate effects and to optimize the performance of the antenna. For various substrate materials the effect of dielectric constant, loss tangent, mass density, bulk conductivity is observed .Resu...

in this study an ultra-broad band, low-power, and high-gain cmos distributed amplifier (cmos-da) utilizing a new gain-cell based on the inductively peaking cascaded structure is presented. it is created bycascading of inductively coupled common-source (cs) stage and regulated cascode configuration (rgc).the proposed three-stage da is simulated in 0.13 μm cmos process. it achieves flat and high ...

Cell enhancers, or broadband on-frequency repeaters (OFRs), offer radio network operators a cost-effective means of improving service quality in areas of low signal strength, or even extending coverage into new areas. Their ability to simultaneously receive and transmit in the same frequency band provides maximum spectral efficiency and renders them transparent to the rest of the network. For s...

Exploiting dynamic scaling and homogeneity in the bi-limit, we developp a new class of high gain observers which incorporate a gain update law and nonlinear output error injection terms. A broader class of systems can be addressed and the observer gain is better fitted to the incremental rate of the nonlinearities. The expected improved performance is illustrated.
