Drift reliability optimization in VLSI ciruit design
(1992)
Due to aggressive scaling of transistor feature size in contemporary Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuits, some wearout failure mechanisms have become much more serious than before. Design-for-Reliability is thus ...
Slotline, CPW ring circuits and waveguide ring cavities for coupler and filter applications
(1994)
Slotline and coplanar waveguide (CPW) ring elements have been developed as circuit components for resonator, filter, and coupler applications. Transitions from CPW to slotline and coplanar strip (CPS) using uniform and ...
Knowledge-based control of a transport aircraft during approach and landing
(1994)
The research for this dissertation was undertaken by Emily Ann Glass in pursuit of a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Electrical Engineering. The objectives were first, to examine software architecture useful for knowledge-based ...
Microwave remote sensing and its application to soil moisture detection
(1977)
Theoretical and experimental studies of the thermal microwave emission from moist soil were performed. The theoretical study was undertaken to provide a physical understanding of the emission from soil and its relationship ...
Theory of resonant tunneling characteristics in semiconductor heterostructure electron devices
(1993)
In this thesis, the electron transport mechanisms and the current-voltage characteristics in one and two-dimensional structures are described. The resonant tunneling characteristics in double-barrier heterostructure ...
Reliability evaluation of bulk power systems
(1986)
The increasing size and complexity of power systems, coupled with present day financial constraints have made the use of probabilistic methods and reliability indices a necessity in order to maintain the continuity and ...
Thermal microwave emission from an inhomogeneous half-space
(1977)
The phenomena of thermal electromagnetic radiation sources, electromagnetic propagation in both one and two dimensionally inhomogeneous media, and surface roughness effects on electromagnetic transmission have been analyzed ...
Shape discrimination and assembly of scattered regional pieces by Psi-S curve
(1987)
One of the fundamental problems of shape discrimination by machine vision is the object matching based on the boundary information. Subsequently, precise edge detection has been the main issue in this field. New techniques ...
An analysis of the radiation characteristics of asymmetrically-driven thin linear antennas
(1969)
A study is made of the radiation characteristics of the thin, linear antenna of arbitrary length and driving-point location. A compact algebraic expression for the radiation field of this antenna is found, a special case ...
Modeling and system identification for the in-phase/quadrature process
(1979)
The goal of this investigation is to develop a real-time, sampled-data processing technique to combat both natural and intention interferences on aeronautical radio communication and data-link channels. The particular ...
