High bandwidth low power operational amplifier design and compensation techniques
The need for high bandwidth operational amplifiers (op amp) exists for numerous applications. This need requires research in the area of Op Amp bandwidth extension. The exploited method in this thesis uses a class of compensation called Indirect Feedback Frequency Compensation in which the compensation current is fed back indirectly from the output to an internal high impedance node, to extend the bandwidth of an Op Amp.
Among various compensation methods for operational amplifiers, indirect compensation offers potentially large benefits in regards to power to speed trade-off. The indirect compensated Op Amps can exhibit significant improvements in speed over traditional Miller compensated Op Amps and result in much smaller layout size and lower power consumption. However the technique has not been widely used in practice due to a lack of clear design procedure. This thesis develops an analytical description of how indirect compensation works and derives key trade off equations among various specifications. These results provide the insight needed for practically designing operational amplifiers with this technique. Based on the results, a step-by-step design procedure is proposed for an operational amplifier using indirect compensation. To demonstrate the proposed design procedure, a two stage Op Amp is designed. The Op Amp achieved a 2 MHz gain-bandwidth
product (GBW) driving a large capacitive load (100 pF). The GBW of the Op Amp was improved by a factor of 10 times compared to the miller compensation scheme. The amplifier documented in this thesis achieved a higher simulated figures-of-merit (FoMs) compared to the state-of-art and can be directly used in integrated systems to achieve higher performance
Transmit Antenna Selection for Physical-Layer Network Coding Based on Euclidean Distance
Physical-layer network coding (PNC) is now well-known as a potential
candidate for delay-sensitive and spectrally efficient communication
applications, especially in two-way relay channels (TWRCs). In this paper, we
present the error performance analysis of a multiple-input single-output (MISO)
fixed network coding (FNC) system with two different transmit antenna selection
(TAS) schemes. For the first scheme, where the antenna selection is performed
based on the strongest channel, we derive a tight closed-form upper bound on
the average symbol error rate (SER) with -ary modulation and show that the
system achieves a diversity order of 1 for . Next, we propose a
Euclidean distance (ED) based antenna selection scheme which outperforms the
first scheme in terms of error performance and is shown to achieve a diversity
order lower bounded by the minimum of the number of antennas at the two users.Comment: 15 pages, 4 figures, Globecom 2017 (Wireless Communications

Performance Analysis of NOMA-based Cooperative Relaying in {\alpha} - {\mu} Fading Channels
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is widely recognized as a potential
multiple access technology for efficient radio spectrum utilization in the
fifth-generation (5G) wireless communications standard. In this paper, we study
the average achievable rate and outage probability of a cooperative relaying
system (CRS) based on NOMA (CRS-NOMA) over wireless links governed by the
- generalized fading model; here and designate the
nonlinearity and clustering parameters, respectively, of each link. The average
achievable rate is represented in closed-form using Meijer's G-function and the
extended generalized bivariate Fox's H-function (EGBFHF), and the outage
probability is represented using the lower incomplete Gamma function. Our
results confirm that the CRS-NOMA outperforms the CRS with conventional
orthogonal multiple access (CRS-OMA) in terms of spectral efficiency at high
transmit signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). It is also evident from our results that
with an increase in the value of the nonlinearity/clustering parameter, the SNR
at which the CRS-NOMA outperforms its OMA based counterpart becomes higher.
Furthermore, the asymptotic analysis of the outage probability reveals the
dependency of the diversity order of each symbol in the CRS-NOMA system on the
and parameters of the fading links.Comment: 16 pages, 7 figures, 1 table, accepted in IEEE International

-factorization approach to the Higgs boson production in channel at the LHC
We calculated a differential cross section of the Higgs boson production in
the decay channel within the framework of
-factorization. Results are obtained using an off-shell matrix element for
the process together with
Ciafaloni-Catani-Fiorani-Marchesini (CCFM) evolution equations for an
unintegrated gluon distribution function. We have presented a comparison of our
results with the latest experimental measurements at = 8 TeV and
= 13 TeV from the ATLAS and CMS collaborations at the LHC. In
addition to this, we have compared our results with the results from the
collinear factorization formalism calculated up to next-to-next-to-leading
order plus next-to-next-to-leading logarithm (NNLO + NNLL) accuracy obtained
using the HRes code for the Higgs boson production in the gluon-gluon fusion
process. Our estimates are consistently close to NNLO + NNLL results obtained
using a collinear factorization formalism and are also in agreement with
experimental measurements.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figures updated using TMDli
