in current years, the application of biopotential signals has received a lot of attention in literature. one of these signals is an electromyogram (emg) generated by active muscles. surface emg (semg) signal is recorded over the skin, as the representative of the muscle activity. since its amplitude can be as low as 50 µv, it is sensitive to undesirable noise signals such as power‑line interfer...

The work is framed within Printed Electronics, an emerging technology for the manufacture of electronic products. Among different printing methods, roll-to-roll flexography technique used because it allows continuous manufacturing and high productivity at low cost. Apart from process parameters, ink substrate properties are some variables associated with flexographic printing. Specifically, thi...

We present the procedure for designing a high speed and low power all-optical analog to digital converter (AO-ADC), by integrating InGaAsP semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) with InP based photonic crystal (PhC) drop filters. The self-phase modulation in the SOA can shift the frequency of the Gaussian input pulse. The two output PhC based drop filters are designed to appropriately code the f...
