Single-Transistor Second-Order Allpass Filters

This paper presents two CMOS designs of a second-order voltage-mode allpass filters (APFs) for high-frequency applications. Each of the proposed filters is based only on a single transistor and four surrounding impedances. The first proposed allpass filter is an RL filter while the second proposed one is an RLC filter. A detailed analysis along with the parasitic effects is provided for each of

Odd clipping optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing for VLC system

The Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has emerged as one of the promising techniques because of its robustness to multipath fading with high-speed data transmission. Classical bipolar OFDM cannot be used in intensity modulated with direct detection (IM/DD) optical communication systems, as visible light communication (VLC), so many optical modulation techniques as asymmetrical

Control of continuous-time chaotic (hyperchaotic) systems: F-M synchronisation

In this paper, a new type of chaos synchronisation between different dimensional chaotic systems is proposed. The novel scheme is called F-M synchronisation, since it combines the inverse generalised synchronisation with the matrix projective synchronisation. In particular, the proposed approach enables F-M synchronisation to be achieved between n-dimensional master system and m-dimensional slave

Evaluation of computational techniques for predicting non-synonymous single nucleotide variants pathogenicity

The human genetic diseases associated with many factors, one of these factors is the non-synonymous Single Nucleotide Variants (nsSNVs) cause single amino acid change with another resulting in protein function change leading to disease. Many computational techniques have been released to expect the impacts of amino acid alteration on protein function and classify mutations as pathogenic or neutral

Toward Portable Bio-impedance devices

Bio-impedance measurement has been used as an indicator for specific physical and chemical changes in food products, fruits and vegetables, cancer detection and other applications. In this paper, a portable wireless bio-impedance measurement embedded system, based on the AD5933 chip, is introduced. The system is calibrated using a parallel RC network and the industry standard electrochemical

Power tracking controller design for photo-voltaic systems based on particle swarm optimization technique

Solar energy turns into a promising supply of electricity, so structures of Photo-voltaic (PV) regularly use a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) way to deliver the highest probable power to the load continuously. This paper presents the methodology of PI controller tuning of PV employing Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The aim is to obtain the maximum power and maintain its value using the PI

Analysis and Design of Fractional-order Low-pass Filter with Three Elements of Independent Orders

This paper studies a new fractional-order form for the active low-pass filter. The form was mainly generated from generalizing an active second-order low-pass filter with three capacitors to the fractional-order domain with three independent orders. The transfer function introduced an extra term in the denominator comprising the third fractional order. The effect of the third fractional-order

Log-domain implementation of fractional-order element emulators

Novel fractional-order capacitor and inductor em-ulators are presented in this work, which offer fully electronic tunability of their characteristics and, simultaneously, reduced circuit complexity compared to those already introduced in the literature. This has been achieved through the utilization of the log-domain filtering for implementing the approximation of the required fractional-order

Automated Cell-Type Classification and Death-Detection of Spinal Motoneurons

Spinal motoneurons (MNs) play a crucial role in movement control. Decoding the firing activity of spinal MNs could help in real-life challenges, such as enhancing the control of myoelectric prostheses and diagnosing neurodegenerative diseases. In this paper, we propose a machine learning approach to automatically classify MNs based on their firing activity. Applying the proposed approach to data

An Ultra-Low Power Wide-Band Single-Transistor Second-Order Allpass Filter in 65nm CMOS

In this paper, we propose a MOS design of a second-order voltage-mode allpass filter to be used as a time delay cell. The proposed filter is based on a single transistor, three resistors and two energy storage elements and was designed in a 65nm CMOS technology. Post-layout simulations demonstrate a group delay of approximately 13ps across a 30GHz bandwidth, while only consuming 809.7μW from a 1-V
