We study the impact of individual and temporal aggregation in linear static and dynamic models for panel data in terms of model specification and efficiency of the estimated parameters. Model wise we find that i) individual aggregation does not affect the model structure but temporal aggregation may introduce residual autocorrelation, and ii) individual aggregation entails heteroskedasticity wh...

— Various model parameter calculation equations of RF CMOS inductors are compared. The calculation equations are using as variables either Y, Z-parameters or S-parameters. Results are based on on-wafer RF S-parameter measurements of a 3.75 turn spiral inductor fabricated in AMIS 0.7 μm CMOS DM1P n-well technology. Results obtained with calculation equations for a differentially driven inductor ...

sufficient measurements of effective parameters with suitable temporal and spatial distributions for all phenomena are needed. however, providing the data and informations are difficult and costly. so, temporal and/or spatial downscaling is of prime importance. by downscaling, one can generate data from available ones. there are diffent downscaling methods in literature but they are not compare...

background and aim: this study investigated whether objective temporal processing paradigms including voice-onset-time, speech-in-noise, and amplitude modulated-broad-band noise (am-bbn) are sensitive to disrupted temporal processing in elderly listeners with normal hearing (age-related-temporal processing deficit). methods: we evaluated 15 adults aged 64–80 years using behavioural measures of ...

We develop a covariance-matrix-based uncertainty analysis for vector-network-analyzer scattering-parameter measurements. The covariance matrix captures all of the measurement uncertainties and statistical correlations between them. This allows the uncertainties of vector-network-analyzer scattering-parameter measurements to be propagated into the uncertainties of other quantities derived from s...

An efficient measurement methodology is proposed to construct the scattering parameters of a multi-port device using a four-port vector network analyzer (VNA) without the external un-terminated ports. By using the four-port VNA, the reflected waves from the un-terminated ports could be minimized. The proposed method significantly enhances the accuracy of the S-parameters with less number of mea...
