ZERO MODE NATURAL FREQUENCY AND NONLINEAR VIBRATION OF COUPLED LATERAL AND TORSION OF A LARGE TURBINE GENERATOR

Zero mode natural frequency (ZMNF) is found during experiments. The ZMNF andvibrations resulted by it are studied. First, calculating method of the ZMNF excited byelectromagnetic in vibrational system of coupled mechanics and electrics are given from the view ofmagnetic energy. Laws that the ZMNF varies with active power and exciting current are obtained andare verified by experiments. Then, coupled lateral and torsional vibration of rotor shaft system isstudied by considering rest eccentricity, rotating eccentricity and swing eccentricity. UsingLargrange-Maxwell equation when three phases are asymmetric derives differential equation of thecoupled vibration. With energy method of nonlinear vibration, amplitude-frequency characteristics ofresonance are studied when rotating speed of rotor equals to ZMNF. The results show that ZMNF willoccur in turbine generators by the action of electromagnetic. Because ZMNF varies withelectromagnetic parameters, resonance can occur when exciting frequency of the rotor speed is fixedwhereas exciting current change. And also find that a generator is in the state of large amplitudein rated exciting current.

ZERO INTERMEDIATE FREQUENCY RECEIVER FOR MULTICARRIER MODE OF cdma2000

This paper proposes a novel zero Intermediate Frequency (IF) receiver for Multi-Carrier (MC) Direct-Sequence Code-Division Multiple Access (DS-CDMA) based on multicar-rier mode of cdma2000 system. The proposed receiver employs direct RF-to-baseband down-conversion, sampling at a rate equal to the bandwidth of the baseband multicarrier signal and complex-valued coefficient FIR filters. This receiver avoids the need for arrays of high Q analog bandpass filters, has a much lower sampling rate half of that of conventional receiver and offers significant savings in hardware implementation. Analytic and simulation results show that the presented receiver performs well for both the AWGN channel and Rayleigh fading channel.

Simulation of Rock Complex Resistivity Using an Inversion Method

The complex resistivity of coal and related rocks contains abundant physical property information,which can be indirectly used to study the lithology and microstructure of these materials.These aspects are closely related to the fluids inside the considered coal rocks,such as gas,water and coalbed methane.In the present analysis,considering different lithological structures,and using the Cole-Cole model,a forward simulation method is used to study different physical parameters such as the zero-frequency resistivity,the polarizability,the relaxation time,and the frequency correlation coefficient.Moreover,using a least square technique,a complex resistivity“inversion”algorithm is written.The comparison of the initial model parameters and those obtained after inversion is used to verify the stability and accuracy of such approach.The method is finally applied to primary-structure coal considered as the experimental sample for complex resistivity measurements.

Linear-in-dB Variable-Gain Downconversion Mixer for Zero Intermediate Frequency Receivers

In-phase/quadrature （I/Q） mismatch is a key problem in zero intermediate frequency （ZIF） receiver architectures. Although integration and careful layout can alleviate I/Q mismatch, circuit and system level calibrations are also needed due to process variations and variable operating conditions. The amplitude im- balance between I/Q channels was calibrated using a modified R-2R ladder to achieve fine linear-in-dB variable gain. A downconversion mixer working in the 2,4-GHz band was developed for a wireless local area network （WLAN） ZIF receiver using 0.25μm complementary metal-oxide semiconductor （CMOS）. The twostage mixer configuration relaxes the tradeoff between noise and linearity. Experimental results verify the fine linear-in-dB variable conversion gain of the mixer, which can also be used as part of an automatic gain control （AGC）loop.

Temperature dependent behaviors of electro-elastic properties of NdCa_(4)O(BO_(3))_(3)crystal with monoclinic symmetry

Rare-earth calcium oxyborate crystals(RECa_(4)O(BO_(3))_(3),RECOB,RE:rare-earth elements)are a kind of multifunctional crystal materials.In this work,the temperature dependent behaviors of the electroelastic constants of NdCOB crystal were investigated over the temperature range of-80-200℃,and their temperature coefficients were evaluated.It is found that NdCOB crystal possesses minimal variation of relative dielectric permittivities(<3%).The temperature coefficient of frequency for ZY cut with width shear vibration mode is in the order of 0.07×10^(-4)/℃.The temperature coefficients of the elastic compliances are obtained to be in the range of-33.0×10^(-4)/℃-32.2×10^(-4)/℃.Particularly,the sand swere found to show low temperature coefficients of the elastic compliances,i.e.1.0×10^(-4)/℃and-0.4×10^(-4)/℃,respectively,indicating the existence of zero temperature coefficient of frequency crystal cut.Furthermore,the electromechanical coupling factors and piezoelectric coefficients as a function of temperature were studied.The electromechanical coupling factor kand piezoelectric coefficient dare determined to be~30.8%and~15.2 pC/N at room temperature,respectively.The large piezoelectric response and zero temperature coefficient of frequency indicate the potential usage of NdCOB crystal for piezoelectric frequency devices over a wide temperature range.
