Data Word Length Reduction for Low-Power DSP Software Kyungtae Han Abstract The increasing demand for portable computing accelerates the study of minimizing power dissipation. Most power in processes is consumed by the switching activity of capacitance. The switching power can be reduced by not only minimizing hardware but also optimizing software. Key papers for low power techniques of hardwar...

In this paper we obtained an approach to the optimal switching control problem with unknown switching points which it is described in reference [1, 2]. In reference [1], the authors studied the Decomposition of Linear-Quadratic Optimal Control Problems for Two-Steps Systems. In [1], the authors assumed the switching point t1 is fixed in the interval for state equation and boundary of the integr...

This article deals with the optimization, expressed as the minimization of the 2 norm of the tracking error, of the regulation transients caused by instantaneous, wide parameter variations occurring in the regulated systems. The parameter-varying regulated system is modeled by a set of discrete-time, linear, time-invariant systems and the regulated system switching law is assumed to be complete...

In this paper, we compare the availability and performance of a wireless TDMA system with and without automatic protection switching. Stochastic reward net models are constructed and solved by SPNP (Stochastic Petri Net Package). Hierarchical decomposition is adopted to simplify the analysis. The optimization of the number of guard channels reserved for the handoff calls is studied. Numerical r...

we solve the coupled mode equations governing the chalcogenide nonlinear fiber bragg gratings (fbgs) numerically, and obtain the bistability characteristics. the characteristics of the chalcogenide nonlinear fbgs such as: switching threshold intensity, bistability interval, on-off switching ratio are studied. the effects of fbg length and its third order nonlinear refractive index on fbg charac...

Multilevel inverters are emerging as a most promising alternative for reducing the harmonics and to achieve high-voltage, high-power capability but switching losses are increased because of increased device count. Many modulation techniques like soft switching techniques, space vector-based PWM techniques or sinusoidal PWM-based techniques were employed to reduce the switching losses. In this p...

naphthol isomers were simultaneously and spectrophotometrically determined in wastewater, using a model based on net analyte signal (nas). the calibration method used is a variation of the original hybrid linear analysis method as proposed by goicoechea and olivieri (hla/go). owing to spectral interferences, the simultaneous determination of mixtures of naphthol isomers, using a spectrophotomet...
