Auditory brainstem response (ABR) peak measures were compared for a custom ear canal electrode and traditional mastoid and ear lobe reference electrode sites with the assumption that the ear canal electrode would yield larger Wave I amplitudes. In this study, Waves I, III, and V latencies and amplitudes were measured and compared in twenty participants between the ages of 18 and 50, with partic...

A low-power monolithic clock synthesizer suitable for use in mobile P platforms is presented. Clock synthesis is accomplished using an all-Si RF LC reference oscillator that does not require an external frequency reference. Fabricated in 0.18 m CMOS, the developed clock synthesizer demonstrates 1% frequency accuracy over process, voltage, and 0-70 C, exhibits 7.4/21/33psrms period jitter on 528...

A novel image contrast enhancement (ICE) circuit was proposed by modulating the reference voltages of the source driver circuit in liquid-crystal displays (LCDs). The adjustment of reference voltages is achieved immediately by applying external adjustment codes, which may be generated in accordance with the video data distribution on image displays and the liquid crystal materials, and leads to...

The paper deals with the robust output feedback discrete control of continuous-time multi input multi output (MIMO) linear plants with arbitrary relative degree under parametric uncertainties and external bounded disturbances with quantized output signal. The parallel reference model (auxiliary loop) to the plant is used for extracting information about the uncertainties acting on the plant. Th...

Abstract Starting from the current multifunctional integration and architecture design development status of flight control system for mainstream civil aircraft, this paper proposes concepts “In Out as a Whole”, “Direct Connection Transmission”, “Same Sources Routes” external sensors application sources fight system. External are air data, inertial Reference data angle attack in paper, specific...

The paper deals with the robust output feedback discrete control of continuous-time linear plants with arbitrary relative degree under parametric uncertainties and external bounded disturbances with quantized output signal. The parallel reference model (auxiliary loop) to the plant is used for obtaining the uncertainties acting on the plant. The proposed algorithm guarantees that the output of ...

This paper demonstrates how to construct a reference governor for which the size of its implemented data can be adjusted with an integer parameter ν , ensuring fulfillment of a pointwise-in-time constraint. Using a technique called “blocking,” a management method is established that changes the external reference every νTs period, where Ts denotes a sampling period of a constrained system. Cons...

External uniqueness is a surprising new way to add unique references to an OOPL. The idea is that an externally unique reference is the only reference into an aggregate from outside the aggregate. Internal references which do not escape the boundary of the aggregate are innocuous and therefore permitted. Based on ownership types, our proposal not only overcomes an abstraction problem from which...
