    In this thesis, the problem of quantization noise 1s presented, and recent efforts 1n this area are reviewed. With the motivation for further Investigation Into the problem explained, the purpose of this thesis 1s stated to be the determination of peak harmonic distortion due to quantization for predominantly single frequency Inputs. Two cases were examined with pure sinusoid and sine wave plus Gaussian bandlimited white noise. The method used was to simulate the quantization process on the computer, and to use a Fast Fourier Transform algorithm to analyze the spectra of the quantized signals. For pure sinusoidal Inputs, the location of the peak harmonic distortion 1n the quantization noise spectrum was found to be very sensitive to the degree of loading of the quantizer. However the magnitude of the peak distortion when plotted as a function of the number of bits totally used by the Input was fitted very well with a straight line of slope -6dB/b1t. Moreover the largest component 1n the quantization noise spectrum was observed to be about 4dB above the average noise spectral density across the entire frequency band of observation. The addition of noise to the sine wave was anticipated to have a smoothing effect on the quantization noise spectrum. This phenomenon was observed for a specific set of Input noise samples but the results are not conclusive, becuase after further investigation of the noise generation mechanism, the statistical properties of the synthesized noise signal were found to be unsuitable for analysis of power spectra. However since the pure sinusoidal inputs represent the worst case condition for harmonic distortion due to quantization, the measured peaks will provide the upper bounds necessary for specifications in engineering system designs

    CEPC Technical Design Report -- Accelerator

    No full text
    International audienceThe Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) is a large scientific project initiated and hosted by China, fostered through extensive collaboration with international partners. The complex comprises four accelerators: a 30 GeV Linac, a 1.1 GeV Damping Ring, a Booster capable of achieving energies up to 180 GeV, and a Collider operating at varying energy modes (Z, W, H, and ttbar). The Linac and Damping Ring are situated on the surface, while the Booster and Collider are housed in a 100 km circumference underground tunnel, strategically accommodating future expansion with provisions for a Super Proton Proton Collider (SPPC). The CEPC primarily serves as a Higgs factory. In its baseline design with synchrotron radiation (SR) power of 30 MW per beam, it can achieve a luminosity of 5e34 /cm^2/s^1, resulting in an integrated luminosity of 13 /ab for two interaction points over a decade, producing 2.6 million Higgs bosons. Increasing the SR power to 50 MW per beam expands the CEPC's capability to generate 4.3 million Higgs bosons, facilitating precise measurements of Higgs coupling at sub-percent levels, exceeding the precision expected from the HL-LHC by an order of magnitude. This Technical Design Report (TDR) follows the Preliminary Conceptual Design Report (Pre-CDR, 2015) and the Conceptual Design Report (CDR, 2018), comprehensively detailing the machine's layout and performance, physical design and analysis, technical systems design, R&D and prototyping efforts, and associated civil engineering aspects. Additionally, it includes a cost estimate and a preliminary construction timeline, establishing a framework for forthcoming engineering design phase and site selection procedures. Construction is anticipated to begin around 2027-2028, pending government approval, with an estimated duration of 8 years. The commencement of experiments could potentially initiate in the mid-2030s
