This paper presents the analysis of the Darlington pair as an element in a distributed amplifier (DA) configuration. The Darlington pair circuit with the input and output inductor of the DA transmission line are included in the analysis of the circuit, this is also simulated. The inherent problem of poor performance is reduced by the inductors. The overall result shows that high power gain at h...

The Transform model is based on the concept of transformation of access rights. It unifies a number of diverse acccsscontrol mechanisms such as amplification, copy flags, separation of duties and synergistic authorization. In this paper we describe a distributed architecture for implementing Transform. Our architecture is based on capabilities with identities of subjects buried in them. This en...

A monolithically integrated device combines 40 GHz dual mode-locked operation with the wide tuning range (>40nm) of sampled-grating DBR lasers, while further being integrated to an SOA and a potentially high-speed modulator. OCIS codes: (250.5300) Photonic integrated devices; (140.3600) Lasers, tunable; (140.4050) Mode-locked lasers

The paper presents a novel approach for the analysis and control of distributed systems with an underlying path-graph topology based on the so-called wave-based control perspective. With the help of irrational wave transfer functions, the approach allows us to identify and describe the travelling waves in heterogenous path graphs. The main advantage of this approach is that it shows how a chang...

Chirp-controlled optical modulation is demonstrated using a voltage division scheme applied to a long-section phase modulator to compensate for the positive chirp of an electroabsorption modulator arranged in a tandem configuration. Both modulators are integrated with a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) and a sampled-grating distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) laser. The effective chirp facto...

Studies conducted on design and implementation of RF front-end for UWB in the 3.1-10.6 GHz range have been based on the intrinsically wideband approach .These include distributed grounded gate and source LNA with gains of 6 and 14 dB and noise figures of 3 and 5.3 dB respectively, wideband matched LNA with a gain of 7.5 dB, DLL at 528 MHz and PLL at 3.432 GHz for realizing multi-band OFDM carri...

The paper considers a method for maintaining quasi-soliton mode in multi-span fiber-optic communication system using discrete Erbium optical amplifiers, as well Raman amplifiers with distributed amplification counter and bidirectional pumping. OptiSystem 19 OptiPerformer programs were used to model systems. simulation results are compared theoretical data, the advantages of amplifier pumping de...

In this paper, an ultra-low-noise amplifier with frequency band switching capability is designed, simulated and fabricated. The two frequency ranges of this amplifier consist of the 2.4 to 2.5 GHz and 3.1 GHz to 3.15 GHz frequency bands. The designed amplifier has a noise figure of less than 1dB, a minimum gain of 23 dB and a VSWR of less than 2 in the whole frequency band. The design process s...

The implementation of Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) front-ends is one of the challenging aspects in emerging Ultra Wide-Band (UWB) radio frequency (RF) systems. As it is highly desirable to achieve complete system-on-chip (SoC) integration, several CMOS based LNA implementations have been reported recently. The first part of this thesis presents a comparative study that helps designers understand t...
