Multilevel inverters have been widely applied industries. A family of optimal puisewidth modulation (PWM) methods for multilevel inverters, such as step modulation, can generate output voltage with less harmonic distortion than popular modulation strategies, such as the carrier-based sinusoidal PWM or the space vector PWM. However, some drawbacks limit the application of optimal PWM. One of suc...

Analog multipliers are used for frequency conversion and are critical components in modern radio frequency (RF) systems. RF systems must process analog signals with a wide dynamic range at high frequencies. A mixer converts RF power at one frequency into power at another frequency to make signal processing easier and also inexpensive. A fundamental reason for frequency conversion is to allow am...

A new compression algorithm for ngerprint images is introduced. Using Lattice Vector Quantization (LVQ), a technique for determining the largest radius of the Lattice and its scaling factor is presented. The design is based on obtaining the smallest possible Expected Total Distortion (ETD) measure, using a given bit budget, while using the smallest codebook size. In the proposed Piecewise-Unifo...

A simple non-linear network for amplitude stabilization in harmonic quadrature oscillator (QO) is analyzed. The oscillation startup conditions for QO topology with two operational amplifiers are used for amplitude adjustment by element values. A closed form expression for the amplitude setting resistance is derived. Total harmonic distortion (THD) is expressed as closed form function of the est...

Abstract:Today, one of the important issues of power quality (PQ) in power systems is the current harmonics. Increasing expansion of nonlinear loads at different parts of the electric network makes harmonic distortion flow through the network. This causes the network to have background voltage and current harmonic distortion and even affect on the PQ of linear load performance. Therefore, it is...
