By harvesting these advantages of IR-UWB technology at the physical-layer design, this paper proposes that a cross layer architecture platform can be considered as a good integrator for different wireless short-ranges indoor protocols into a universal smart wireless-tagged architecture with new promising applications in cognitive radio for future applications. Adaptive transmission algorithms have been studied to show the trade-off between different specific QoS requirements, transmission rates and distances at the physical layer level and this type of dynamic optimization and reconfiguration leads to the cross-layer design proposal in the paper. Studies from both theoretical simulation and statistical indoor environments experiments are considered as a proof of concept for the proposed architecture.展开更多

Because of the ultra-high semiconducting tube purity and self-aligned T-shape gate structure, these transistors showed an excellent direct current and radio frequency performance. In regard to the direct current characteristics, these transistors showed a transconductance up to 40μS/μm and an excellent current saturation behavior with an output resistance greater than 200 kΩ·μm. In terms of the radio frequency characteristics, an extrinsic maximum oscillation frequency (fmax) of 19 GHz was achieved, which is a record among all kinds of carbon nanotube transistors, and an extrinsic current gain cut-off frequency (fT) of 22 GHz was achieved, which is the highest among transistors based on carbon nanotube networks. Our results take the radio frequency performance of carbon nanotube transistors to a new level and can further accelerate the application of carbon nanotubes for future radio frequency electronics.展开更多

Through periodic interdigital capacitors, the phase of the current on the loop is compensated and kept in phase. Hence, a loop with a perimeter of one wavelength at 900 MHz achieves a uniform near magnetic field distribution inside the loop. A novel method is proposed to evaluate the performance of the coplanar waveguide (CPW) to coplanar stripline (CPS) transition, which is used as a balun for the feeding network in this paper. This loop antenna has a 70 MHz operating bandwidth and 12 cm maximum reading range when the output power is 24 dBm, which is suitable for most near field radio frequency identification (RFID) applications.展开更多
