HYBRID FILTER WITH PREDICT-ESTIMATOR AND COMPENSATOR FOR THE LINEAR TIME INVARIANT DELAYED SYSTEM

This paper investigates the problem of real-time estimation for one kind of linear time invariant systems which subject to limited communication capacity. The communication limitations include signal transmission delay, the out-of-sequence measurements and data packet dropout, which appear typically in a network environment. The kernel of filter design is equally to formularize the traditional Kalman filter as one linear weighted summation which is composed of the initial state estimate and all sequential sampled measurements. For it can adapt aforementioned information limitations, the linear weighted summation is then decomposed into two stages. One is a predict-estimator composed by all reached measurements, another is one compensator constructed by those time-delayed data. In the network environment, there are obvious differences between the new hybrid filter and those existing delayed Kalman filters. For example, the novel filter can be optimal in the sense of linear minimum mean square error as soon as all measurements available and has the lowest running time than these existing delayed filters. One simulation, including two cases, is utilized to illustrate the design procedures proposed in this paper.

Is the High-Frequency Signal Necessary for the Resonance in the Delayed System?

In a delayed system excited by low-frequency and high-frequency signals, the necessity of the high-frequency signal on the resonance is discussed. By adjusting the delay time, the resonance occurs in a wide scope of frequencies, including the primary, subharmonic and superharmonic frequencies. Only for very few cases does the high-frequency signal have a positive effect on the resonance. It is the traditional vibrational resonance phenomenon. In most situations, the high-frequency excitation is unnecessary for the resonance. An appropriate delay, rather than the high-frequency signal, is the key factor in improving the weak low-frequency signal.

Analysis of on-chip distributed interconnects based on Pade expansion

In this paper, on-chip interconnects are modeled as distributed parameter RLCG transmission lines, based on which the matrix ABCD of interconnects is deduced. With help of the ABCD matrix, a voltage transfer function of an interconnect system, consisting of a driver, interconnect line and load, is obtained analytically in the form of a transcendental function, and it is reduced to a finite order system based on high order Pade approximation. With the reduced-order transfer function, response waveforms with step input can be obtained, and signal delay can be calculated consequently. Two numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate its efficiency.

Control of microwave signals using bichromatic electromechanically induced transparency in multimode circuit electromechanical systems

We theoretically investigate the tunable delay and advancement of microwave signals based on bichromatic electromechanically induced transparency in a three-mode circuit electromechanical system, where two nanomechanical resonators with closely spaced frequencies are independently coupled to a common microwave cavity. In the presence of a strong microwave pump field, we obtain two transparency windows accompanied by steep phase dispersion in the transmitted microwave probe field. The width of the transparency window and the group delay of the probe field can be controlled effectively by the power of the pump field. It is shown that the maximum group delay of 0.12 ms and the advancement of0.27 ms can be obtained in the current experiments.

Delays for Both Pedestrians Classified and Vehicles at a Signalized Crosswalk

Delays of both pedestrians,who are classified according to whether complying with traffic law,and vehicles at a signalized crosswalk are analyzed in this paper.The truncated Adams' model is applied to generate the probability and mean of delay of pedestrians non-complying with traffic law.Using the section-based traffic queuing-theory and the stochastic decomposition property of M/G/1vacation system with exhaustive service,the mean delay of vehicles is formulated.A multi-objective optimization model simultaneously minimizing the delays of pedestrians and vehicles during a signal period is proposed.The effects,which several model parameters have on the delays and the optimal solution of the model,are illustrated by numerical examples.

Circuit modeling and performance analysis of SWCNT bundle 3D interconnects

Metallic carbon nanotubes （CNTs） have been proposed as a promising alternative to Cu interconnects in future integrated circuits （ICs） for their remarkable conductive, mechanical and thermal properties. Compact equiv alent circuit models for single-walled carbon nanotube （SWCNT） bundles are described, and the performance of SWCNT bundle interconnects is evaluated and compared with traditional Cu interconnects at different interconnect levels for through-silicon-via-based three dimensional （3D） ICs. It is shown that at a local level, CNT interconnects exhibit lower signal delay and smaller optimal wire size. At intermediate and global levels, the delay improvement becomes more significant with technology scaling and increasing wire lengths. For 1 mm intermediate and 10 mm global level interconnects, the delay of SWCNT bundles is only 49.49% and 52.82% that of the Cu wires, respec tively.
