Third-order Intermodulation Reduction in Mobile Power Amplifiers by the First Stage Bias Control
In this paper, the third order intermodulation distortion (IMD3) of three-stage power amplifier (PA) is analyzed using the Volterra series. The analysis explains how the total IMD3 of the three-stage power amplifier can be reduced by the first-stage bias condition. The three-stage PA, which is fabricated using InGaP/GaAs hetero-junction bipolar transistor (HBT), operates with an optimized first driver stage bias for higher P1dB and good gain flatness. The power amplifier has been designed for 1626.5 MHz~1660.5 MHz satellite mobile communications. With π/4 DQPSK modulation signals, this PA can deliver a highly linear output power of 33 dBm from 3.6V supply voltage. At 33 dBm output power, it shows a gain of 31.9 dB, a power-added efficiency (PAE) of 39.8%, an adjacent channel power ratio (ACPR) of -28.2 dBc at a 31.25 KHz offset frequency
Stochastic control system parameter identifiability
The parameter identification problem of general discrete time, nonlinear, multiple input/multiple output dynamic systems with Gaussian white distributed measurement errors is considered. The knowledge of the system parameterization was assumed to be known. Concepts of local parameter identifiability and local constrained maximum likelihood parameter identifiability were established. A set of sufficient conditions for the existence of a region of parameter identifiability was derived. A computation procedure employing interval arithmetic was provided for finding the regions of parameter identifiability. If the vector of the true parameters is locally constrained maximum likelihood (CML) identifiable, then with probability one, the vector of true parameters is a unique maximal point of the maximum likelihood function in the region of parameter identifiability and the constrained maximum likelihood estimation sequence will converge to the vector of true parameters
On Inhomogeneity of a String Bit Model for Quantum Gravity
We study quantum gravitational effect on a two-dimensional open universe with
one particle by means of a string bit model. We find that matter is necessarily
homogeneously distributed if the influence of the particle on the size of the
universe is optimized.Comment: 16 pages, LaTeX2
Direct relation between the low-energy spin excitations and superconductivity of overdoped high- superconductors
The dynamic spin susceptibility, , has been measured over the
energy range of meV for overdoped
LaSrCuO. Incommensurate (IC) spin excitations are observed
at 8 K for all superconducting samples for with
peaking at meV. The IC peaks at 6 meV become smaller in
intensity with increasing and, finally, become unobservable for a sample
with which has no bulk superconductivity. The maximum
decreases linearly with (onset) in the overdoped region, implying a direct
cooperative relation between the spin fluctuations and the superconductivity.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
Determination of electron-nucleus collision geometry with forward neutrons
There are a large number of physics programs one can explore in
electron-nucleus collisions at a future electron-ion collider. Collision
geometry is very important in these studies, while the measurement for an
event-by-event geometric control is rarely discussed in the prior deep
inelastic scattering experiments off a nucleus. This paper seeks to provide
some detailed studies on the potential of tagging collision geometries through
forward neutron multiplicity measurements with a zero degree calorimeter. This
type of geometry handle, if achieved, can be extremely beneficial in
constraining nuclear effects for the electron-nucleus program at an
electron-ion collider
