This paper presents a broadband high operating frequency divide-by-2 frequency divider. This divider uses sourcecoupled logic (SCL) with two static loading master-slave D latches which achieves high input operating frequency, high input sensitivity and low power dissipation. This divider can work from 8GHz~ 27GHz and the input power is -40dBm@18GHz. The chip area is 735μm×480μm with only 4.6mW ...

The frequency of baroreceptor volleys to the central nervous system can influence the fidelity of baroreceptor signal transmission and thus may affect baroreflex regulation of blood pressure. We examined 1) the extent to which frequency-dependent depression of aortic baroreceptor signals was initiated at the first central synapse between primary baroreceptor fibers and second-order nucleus trac...

In this chapter the authors discuss the physical insight of the role of wireless communication in RFID systems. In this respect, this chapter gives a brief introduction on the wireless communication model followed by various communication schemes. The chapter also discusses various channel impairments and the statistical modeling of fading channels based on the environment in which the RFID tag...

In many areas of language acquisition, researchers have suggested that semantic generality plays an important role in determining the order of acquisition of particular lexical forms. However, generality is typically confounded with the effects of input frequency and it is therefore unclear to what extent semantic generality or input frequency determines the early acquisition of particular lexi...
