TRULY BALANCED PULSE GENERATOR USING MICROWAVE TRANSISTOR AND SRD

A novel efficient circuit for Ultra-WideBand(UWB) balanced sub-nanosecond monocycle pulse generation is presented.The pulse generator employs wideband bipolar transistor,step recovery diodes,Schottky diodes,and simple charging and discharging circuitry.Simple transient analysis and design of the circuit are presented along with their operating principle.The pulse generator produces truly balanced monocycle pulse with 500 ps pulse-width and 800 mV peak voltage.The generated monocycle pulse also has very symmetrical positive and negative portions and low ringing level.The presented pulse generator can be used as both a transmitter feeding UWB balanced antennas without broadband baluns and a balanced switching pulse generator that used in UWB receiver.

Fault Attack on the Balanced Shrinking Generator

Fault analysis, belonging to indirect attack, is a cryptanalysis technique for the physical implementation of cryptosystem. In this paper, we propose a fault attack on the Balanced Shrinking Generator. The results show that the attacker can obtain the secret key by analyzing faulty output sequences which is produced by changing control clock of one of Linear Feedback Shift Registers （LFSR）. Therefore, the balanced shrinking generator has a trouble in hardware implementation.

Generalized Electron Balance for Dynamic Redox Systems in Mixed-Solvent Media

A complex example of electrolytic redox system involving 47 species, 3 electron-active elements and five (3 am-phiprotic + 2 aprotic) co-solvents, is presented. Mixed solvates of the species thus formed are admitted in the system considered. It is proved that the Generalized Electron Balance (GEB) in its simplest form obtained according to the Approach II to GEB is identical with the one obtained for aqueous media and binary-solvent system, and is equivalent to the Approach I to GEB.

Formulation of Titration Curves for Some Redox Systems

The formalism realised according to the Generalised Approach to Electrolytic Systems (GATES) is presented and applied to typical redox systems known from the laboratory practice. In any redox system, the Generalized Electron Balance (GEB), perceived as the law of the matter conservation, is derivable from linear combination 2·f(O) – f(H) of elemental balances: f(O) for oxygen and f(H) for hydrogen. It is an equation linearly independent from other (charge and concentration) balances referred to an electrolytic redox system (aqueous media) of any degree of complexity, and named as the primary form of GEB and then denoted as pr-GEB. A compact equation for GEB is obtained from linear combination of 2·f(O) – f(H) with other (charge and concentration) balances. For a non-redox electrolytic system, of any degree of complexity, the balance 2·f(O) – f(H) is not an independent equation. In the derivation of GEB, all known components (species) of the system tested, taken in their real (i.e., hydrated) form, are involved in the balances, and none simplifying assumptions are needed. The redox systems are simulated with use of an iterative computer program.

Disproportionation Reactions of HIO and NaIO in Static and Dynamic Systems

The paper refers to disproportionation of HIO and NaIO in aqueous media, in static and dynamic systems. The results of calculations, realized according to GATES/GEB principles, with use of an iterative computer program, are presented graphically. An example of the computer program with all physicochemical knowledge involved in the related algorithm is attached herewith.

Compact Formulation of Redox Systems According to GATES/GEB Principles

The Generalized Electron Balance (GEB), together with charge balance and concentration balances, completes the set of equations needed for resolution of electrolytic redox systems. The general formulae for GEB were obtained according to Approach II to GEB, i.e., on the basis of the equation 2?f(O) ? f(H) obtained from elemental balances: f(H) for H, and f(O) for O. Equivalency of the Approach II and the Approach I to GEB was proved for an aqueous solution and a binary-solvent system. On this basis, a compact form of GEB was derived.

Near generalized balanced tournament designs with block sizes 4 and 5

A near generalized balanced tournament design, or an NGBTD(k,m) in short, is a (km+1,k,k-1)-BIBD defined on a (km+1)-set V . Its blocks can be arranged into an m×(km+1) array in such a way that (1) the blocks in every column of the array form a partial parallel class partitioning V\{x} for some point x, and (2) every element of V is contained in precise k cells of each row. In this paper, we completely solve the existence of NGBTD(4,m) and almost completely solve the existence of NGBTD(5,m) with four exceptions.

FIRST-PASSAGE FAILURE OF PREISACH HYSTERETIC SYSTEMS

The first-passage failure of a single-degree-of-freedom hysteretic system with non- local memory is investigated. The hysteretic behavior is described through a Preisach model with excitation selected as Gaussian white noise. First, the equivalent nonlinear non-hysteretic sys- tem with amplitude-dependent damping and stiffness coefficients is derived through generalized harmonic balance technique. Then, equivalent damping and stiffness coefficients are expressed as functions of system energy by using the relation of amplitude to system energy. The stochastic aver- aging of energy envelope is adopted to accept the averaged It5 stochastic differential equation with respect to system energy. The establishing and solving of the associated backward Kolmogorov equation yields the reliability function and probability density of first-passage time. The effects of system parameters on first-passage failure are investigated concisely and validated through Monte Carlo simulation.
