The lasing wavelength of a single-section distributed feedback DFB laser diode can be modulated by modulating the drive current. This makes it possible to utilize the DFB laser diode in a frequencymodulated continuous wave FMCW range and velocity measuring system...

The accuracy of target position detection in IR seeker depends on the accuracy of tracking error signal (TES) extraction from seeker Field of View (FOV). The type of reticle inside the seeker determines the output modulation signal that carries the TES. In this paper, the stationary wagon wheel reticle is used, which makes the type of the output signal as FM modulation in the linear region of F...

SPICE-compatible equivalent circuits were developed to facilitate the analysis and envelope simulation of electric circuits driven by modulated signals. The circuits are based on a novel complex phasor-domain transformation. The proposed method facilitates simulation of any general linear circuit driven by a modulated signal such as amplitude modulation, frequency modulation, or phase modulatio...

An open-loop, all-fiber-optic gyroscope with wide dynamic range and linear scale factor is described. This novel approach converts the Sagnac phase shift into a phase shift in a low-frequency electronic signal by using optical phase modulation followed by amplitude modulation verify the theoretical predictions.

We present an extremum seeking control algorithm for discrete-time systems applied to a class of plants that are represented as a series combination of a linear input dynamics, a static nonlinearity with an extremum, and a linear output dynamics. By using the two-time scale averaging theory, we derive a mild sufficient condition under which the plant output exponentially converges to an ( ) nei...

Intra-pulse modulation recognition under negative signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) environment is a research challenge. This article presents a robust algorithm for the recognition of 5 types of radar signals with large variation range in the signal parameters in low SNR using the combination of the Short-time Ramanujan Fourier transform (ST-RFT) and pseudo-Zernike moments invariant features. The ST...

Linear, Low Noise Microwave Photonic Systems using Phase and Frequency Modulation by John Michael Wyrwas Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences University of California, Berkeley Ming C. Wu, Chair Photonic systems that transmit and process microwave-frequency analog signals have traditionally been encumbered by relatively large signal distortion and noi...

The processing of texture patterns has been characterized by a model that postulates a first-stage linear filter to highlight a component texture, a pointwise rectification stage to convert contrast for the highlighted texture into mean response strength, followed by a second-stage linear filter to detect the texture-defined pattern. We estimated the spatial-frequency bandwidth of the second-st...
