A fundamental problem in formalizing our intuitive ideas about information is to provide a quantitative notion of “meaningful” or “relevant” information. It is argued in this paper that information theory, in particular lossy source compression, provides a natural quantitative approach to the question of “relevant information.” Specifically, the authors formulate a variational principle for the...

In this article, a novel concept is introduced to improve the radio frequency (RF) linearity of partially-depleted (PD) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) MOSFET circuits. The transition due to the non-zero body resistance (RBody) in output conductance of PD SOI devices leads to linearity degradation. A relation for RBody is defined to eliminate the transition and a method to obtain transition-free c...

Advances in speech signal analysis facilitate the development of techniques for remote biomedical voice assessment. However, the performance of these techniques is affected by noise and distortion in signals. In this paper, we focus on the vowel /a/ as the most widely-used voice signal for pathological voice assessments and investigate the impact of four major types of distortion that are commo...

This paper presents an adaptive digital resolution improvement method for extrapolating and recursive analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The presented adaptively enhanced ADC (AE-ADC) digitally estimates the digital equivalent of the input signal by utilizing an adaptive digital filter (ADF). The least mean squares (LMS) algorithm also determines the coefficients of the ADF block. In this sch...

Because of installation for local consumers and since it is free of all contaminations, connecting photovoltaic cells to the grid via single-phase inverter is significantly on the rise. In this paper, a new simple current control is proposed for a single-phase grid-connected voltage source inverter. Using the PQ theory and modelling a single-phase system as an unbalanced three-phase system, a m...

We propose a two-stage adaptive filtering process for canceling narrowband interference from a wideband signal process, based on a reference signal consisting of a Doppler shifted version of the interference. The first stage uses the timevarying behavior of NLMS with large step-size to produce an estimate of the interference signal, in which the Doppler shift is mitigated. The second stage uses...

Signal compression is an important problem encountered in many applications. Various techniques have been proposed over the years for addressing the problem. In this paper we present a time domain algorithm based on the coding of line segments which are used to approximate the signal. These segments are t in a way that is optimal in the rate distortion sense. Although the approach is applicable...

Non-linearity in the human ear can cause audible distortion not present in the original signal. Such distortion is generated within the ear by inter-modulation of a spectral complex, itself containing possible masked components. When psychoacoustic codecs remove these supposedly masked components, the in-ear-generated distortion is also removed, and so our listening experience is modified. In t...

oise can be defined as an unwanted signal that interferes with the communication or measurement of another signal. A noise itself is a signal that conveys information regarding the source of the noise. For example, the noise from a car engine conveys information regarding the state of the engine. The sources of noise are many, and vary from audio frequency acoustic noise emanating from moving, ...
