چکیده
An improved time caliper method has been proposed for measuring a small relative delay of two signals transmitted on different channels. This is achieved by using a new method to generate two periodic pulse trains that have much smaller period difference, over 1000 times smaller than that in the prior scheme. The two pulse trains, with a period difference of 0.1 ps, are generated by an arbitrary waveform generator and a time demultiplexer, with a fine clock offset. The average and maximum measurement errors obtained are 0.68 and 1.67 ps, respectively.

متن کاملFast Fpga Based Low-trigger-jitter Waveform Generator Method for Barrier-bucket Electronics at Fair∗
A new method for low trigger-jitter waveform generation is presented. The targeted application is the time-delayed, trigger synchronous waveform generation. The method can be implemented on a single FPGA, which drives an ADC. The phase-jitter between a trigger signal fed to the FPGA and the generated single sine waveform is σ= 40 ps and 275 ps peak-to-peak. The response time of the wave form ge...
متن کاملSynchronization in a Wideband Optical Data Transmission System
An optical synchronization technique is described for the demultiplexer of a wideband optical data transmission system. In this system, the closely spaced optical pulses of interleaved PCM channels are “space sorted” by a coincidence detection technique using an optical reference waveform generated in the receiver. For synchronization of the reference waveform with a spatial waveform produced b...
متن کاملA High Precision and Low Power Digital Synchronous Clock for Sensor Network
The applications envisioned for sensor networks require collaborative execution of a distributed task amongst a large set of sensor nodes. This is realized by exchanging messages that are time-stamped using the local clocks on the nodes. Therefore, time synchronization becomes an indispensable piece of infrastructure in such systems. We propose a design of synchronous clock using digital tune m...
