This paper proposes a new topology of quasiZ-source inverter(qZSI) which is used as step-up isolated dc/dc converter for residential fuel cell (FC) power systems .The proposed topology used is cascaded quasi Z source inverter and implemented using induction motor. The cascaded qZSI is derived by the adding of one diode, one inductor and two capacitors to the traditional qZSI. The proposed two-s...

An investigation of cascaded and parallel deep neural networks for speech synthesis is conducted. In these systems, suprasegmental linguistic features (syllable-level and above) are processed separately from segmental features (phone-level and below). The suprasegmental component of the networks learns compact distributed representations of high-level linguistic units without any segmental infl...

Ever since its discovery, graphene bears great expectations in high frequency electronics due to its irreplaceably high carrier mobility. However, it has long been blamed for the weakness in generating gains, which seriously limits its pace of development. Distributed amplification, on the other hand, has successfully been used in conventional semiconductors to increase the amplifiers' gain-ban...

We study numerically the formation of cascading solitons when femtosecond optical pulses are launched into a fiber amplifier with less energy than required to form a soliton of equal duration. As the pulse is amplified, cascaded fundamental solitons are created at different distances, without soliton fission, as each fundamental soliton moves outside the gain bandwidth through the Raman-induced...

This report presents a novel, cascaded approach to non-linear acoustic echo cancellation (AEC). The loudspeaker enclosure microphone (LEM) system is divided into two blocks: non-linear clipping and power filtering, and a conventional, linear AEC. They represent the non-linear amplifier and loudspeaker and linear acoustic channel and up-link path in a typical mobile communication scenario. We pr...

A novel circuit topology for high-gain distributed amplifiers is presented in this study. Based on the conventional distributed architecture, the gain cells are realized by cascading cascode stages for gain enhancement. In addition, the stagger-tuning technique is extensively utilized in the design of the cascode stages as well as the cascaded stages, leading to significant improvement in terms...

This paper presents an ultra-wideband (UWB) low noise amplifier (LNA) consuming 2.2-mW core dc power for 6-8.5GHz wireless applications. A common-gate input stage is cascaded with a common-source second stage to perform input impedance matching and wideband stagger-tuning amplification, while the current-reuse topology minimizes the dc power dissipation. The design method used to achieve flat-g...

This paper presents the design a power amplifier (PA) for direct sequence ultra-wideband applications using 0.13 μm CMOS technology operating in a low band frequency of 3.1 GHz to 5.1 GHz. Current-reused technique is employed at the first stage to increase the gain at the upper end of the desired band. Cascaded common source configuration with shunt peaking inductor at the second stage helps to...
