A 1V,156.7μW,65.9dB Rail-to-Rail Operational Amplifier by Means of Negative Resistance Load and Replica-Amplifier Gain Enhancement

A low-voltage, low-power, and high-gain rail-to-rail operational amplifier （OpAmp） is presented. The replica-amplifier gain enhancement technique is applied to improve the DC gain of the amplifier, which does not degrade the output swing and is very suitable for low-voltage applications. In a 0. 18/μm standard CMOS process,a 1V OpAmp with rail-to-rail output is designed. For a load capacitance of 5 pF,simulation by HSPICE shows that this OpAmp achieves an effective open-loop DC gain of 65. 9dB,gain bandwidth of 70.28 MHz,and phase margin of 50 with a quiescent power dissipation of 156.7μW.

RELAY ASSISTED TRANSMISSSION WITH BIT-INTERLEAVED CODED MODULATION

We investigate an adaptive cooperative protocol in a Two-Hop-Relay (THR) wireless system that combines the following: (1) adaptive relaying based on repetition coding; (2) single or two transmit antennas and one receive antenna configurations for all nodes, each using high order constellation; (3) Bit-Interleaved Coded Modulation (BICM). We focus on a simple decoded relaying (i.e. no error correcting at a relay node) and simple signal quality thresholds for relaying. Then the impact of the two simple thresholds on the system performance is studied. Our results suggest that compared with the traditional scheme for direct transmission, the proposed scheme can increase average throughput in high spectral efficiency region with low implementa-tion-cost at the relay.

Improving Image Copy-Move Forgery Detection with Particle Swarm Optimization Techniques

Copy-Move Forgery(CMF) is one of the simple and effective operations to create forged digital images.Recently,techniques based on Scale Invariant Features Transform(SIFT) are widely used to detect CMF.Various approaches under the SIFT-based framework are the most acceptable ways to CMF detection due to their robust performance.However,for some CMF images,these approaches cannot produce satisfactory detection results.For instance,the number of the matched keypoints may be too less to prove an image to be a CMF image or to generate an accurate result.Sometimes these approaches may even produce error results.According to our observations,one of the reasons is that detection results produced by the SIFT-based framework depend highly on parameters whose values are often determined with experiences.These values are only applicable to a few images,which limits their application.To solve the problem,a novel approach named as CMF Detection with Particle Swarm Optimization(CMFDPSO) is proposed in this paper.CMFD-PSO integrates the Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) algorithm into the SIFT-based framework.It utilizes the PSO algorithm to generate customized parameter values for images,which are used for CMF detection under the SIFT-based framework.Experimental results show that CMFD-PSO has good performance.

Low-Complexity Detection and Decoding Scheme for LDPC-Coded MLC NAND Flash Memory

With the development of manufacture technology, the multi-level cell(MLC)technique dramatically increases the storage density of NAND flash memory. As the result,cell-to-cell interference(CCI) becomes more serious and hence causes an increase in the raw bit error rate of data stored in the cells.Recently, low-density parity-check(LDPC)codes have appeared to be a promising solution to combat the interference of MLC NAND flash memory. However, the decoding complexity of the sum-product algorithm(SPA) is extremely high. In this paper, to improve the accuracy of the log likelihood ratio(LLR) information of each bit in each NAND flash memory cell, we adopt a non-uniform detection(N-UD) which uses the average maximum mutual information to determine the value of the soft-decision reference voltages.Furthermore, with an aim to reduce the decoding complexity and improve the decoding performance, we propose a modified soft reliabilitybased iterative majority-logic decoding(MSRBI-MLGD) algorithm, which uses a non-uniform quantizer based on power function to decode LDPC codes. Simulation results show that our design can offer a desirable trade-off between the performance and complexity for high-column-weight LDPC-coded MLC NAND flash memory.

AN EFFICIENT RADIO RESOURCE MANAGEMENT STRATEGY FOR ADAPTIVE OFDM CELLULAR SYSTEMS

This paper presents an efficient Radio Resource Management (RRM) strategy for adaptive Orthogo-nal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) cellular systems. In the proposed strategy, only those users who have the same distance from their base stations can reuse a same subcarrier. This can guarantee the received Carrier-to-Interference ratio (C/I) of each subcarrier to be acceptable as required by system planning. Then by employing different modulation scheme on each subcarrier according to its received C/I, system spectral effi-ciency can be gracefully increased. Analytical and simulation results show that the spectral efficiency is im-proved by 40% without sacrificing the Bit Error Rate (BER) performance and call blocking probability and sys-tem capacity of the proposed strategy is better than conventional systems.

Dynamic Voltage Restorer with Active Disturbance Rejection Control

Power quality is one of the major concerns among consumers and electric utility companies. CUPS （custom power systems） devices are used to improve the quality of power and enhance the reliability of the power supply in the distribution networks. The DVR （dynamic voltage restorer） is an important CUPS device used to mitigate voltage sag/swell and imbalances. Various control techniques have been implemented to control the DVR, among which the PID （proportional-integral-derivative） controller is dominant because of its model independent property and its error driven technique. In this paper, a new controller based on the ADRC （active disturbance rejection control） concept is developed, and its performance is compared to that of the PID controller. The model of the DVR and its ADRC and PID controllers were developed under the MATLAB （matrix laboratory）/Simulink environment. The simulation results demonstrated the effectiveness of the ADRC over the PID controller.

Rehabilitation Soils with Date Palm Mulching Treatments

Kuwait is located in hyper arid desert environment. This geographical location and irrational human activities accelerate the expansion of land degradation problem. In order to rehabilitate the degraded areas it is necessary to use soil and water resources in sustainable manner. Owing to these reasons it is essential to use appropriate methods based on the scientific diagnostics of the problem. It is compulsory to identify, specify and test different efficient, cost-effective and environment friendly sound sustainable sand control measures such as, semi-circular bunds, square micro catchment and checker board palm leaves to rehabilitate degraded lands in Liyah refilled quarries. To evaluate the impact of rehabilitation method through mulching with date palm leaves soil samples were collected （control and rehabilitation sites with square micro catchment） prior to the implementation plan and post completion of the project （three years）. In this study will be highlighted on detail the results of using square micro catchment and with short brief descriptions on other water harvesting techniques. The results showed an improvement of physical soil properties after the application of these techniques. Soil fertility increased through increasing the quantity of fine and very fine sand. The soil moisture at the surface soil increased from 0.085% to 1.62% after the treatment. The untreated soil has high bulk density about 2 g/cm3 and low porosity about 27%. However, after the soil was ploughed and mulched the bulk density decreased to 0.03 g/cm3. And porosity improved 98%. This study conserved the irrigation water through reducing the proportion of soil evaporation, in addition to the creation of optimum condition for plant growth. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of using organic mulch date palm leaves with water harvesting techniques on the physical and biological properties of degraded soil in Liyah area.

Phase Factor Sequences Algorithm in Partial Transmit Sequence

Partial transmit sequence (PTS) is a promising technique for peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) re-duction in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). While in optimal PTS, an exhaustive search for all combinations of phase factor sequences is required, this results in huge computation. In this paper, by introducing the orthogonal design, a phase factor sequences algorithm is proposed. The algorithm uses orthogonal table to gen-erate phase factor sequences, and the regular PAPR computation result is then followed by the parameter estima-tion. The simulation result shows that the proposed algorithm reduces the computation notably and obtains a good PAPR performance approaching the optimal PTS.

A novel wavelength assignment scheme in OBS network for contention avoidance

Conventional optical burst switching(OBS)technique adopts purely statistical multiplex mechanismso that the bursts collide with each other very easily.To address this problem,a novel proactive con-tention avoidance scheme is proposed,which assigns dedicated wavelengths to each ingress node,then st-numbering algorithm is used to construct the traffic load balanced spanning trees .In this way,contentioncan be eliminated at ingress nodes,and the amount of bursts that could be accommodated by ingressnodes will be maximized.Further,those unused wavelengths left by traffic load balanced spanning treeare also organized as partial trees to carry bursts,thus the link utilization can be improved effectively.Simulation result shows that our scheme can improve the burst loss performance significantly without thewavelength converters or optical buffers comparing to other popular routing and wavelength assignment(RWA)algorithms.

Research on Optical Fiber Flow Test Method With Non-Intrusion

In the field of oil well logging, real-time monitoring of the fluid flow parameter provides a scientific basis for oil and gas optimization exploration and increase in reservoir recovery, so a non-intrusive flow test method based on turbulent vibration was proposed. The specific length of the sensor fiber wound tightly around the outer wall of the pipe was connected with the optical fiber gratings at both ends, and the sensor fiber and the optical fiber gratings composed the flow sensing unit. The dynamic pressure was generated by the turbulence when fluid flows through the pipe, and the dynamic pressure resulted in the light phase shift of the sensor fiber. The phase information was demodulated by the fiber optic interferometer technology, time division multiplexing technology, and phase generated carrier modulation and demodulation techniques. The quadratic curve relationship between the phase change and flow rate was found by experimental data analysis, and the experiment confirmed the feasibility of the optical fiber flow test method with non-intrusion and achieved the real-time monitoring of the fluid flow.

Synthesis of molybdenum disulfide/reduced graphene oxide composites for effective removal of Pb(Ⅱ) from aqueous solutions

In this work, a facile method was adopted to synthesize molybdenum disulfide/reduced graphene oxide （MoS2/rGO） composites through an c-cysteine-assisted hydrothermal technique, The as-prepared MoS2/ rGO composites were firstly applied as adsorbents for efficient elimination of Pb（Ⅱ） ions. Batch adsorption experiments showed that the adsorption of Pb（Ⅱ） on MoS2/rGO followed pseudo-second-order kinetic model well. The adsorption of Pb（Ⅱ） was intensely pH-dependent, ionic strength-dependent at pH 〈 9.0 and ionic strength-independent at pH 〉 9,0, The presence of humic acid （HA） enhanced Pb（Ⅱ） adsorption obviously. The MoS2/rGO composites exhibited excellent adsorption capacity of 384.16 mg g 1 at pH 5.0 and T = 298.15 K, which was superior to MOS2 （279.93 mg g 1） and many other adsorbents. The thermodynamic parameters suggested that the adsorption process of Pb（Ⅱ） on MoS2/rGO composites was spontaneous （zSG＂ 〈 O） and endothermic （△H 〉 0）. The interaction of Pb（Ⅱ） and MoS2] rGO was mainly dominated by electrostatic attraction and surface comple^ation between Pb（Ⅱ） and oxygen-containing functional groups of MoS2]rGO. This work highlighted the application of MoS21rGO as novel and promising materials in the efficient elimination of Pb（Ⅱ） from contaminated water and industrial effluents in environmental pollution management.

Sweet plasmonics： Sucrose macrocrystals of metal nanoparticles

The realization of plasmonic structures generally necessitates expensive fabrication techniques, such as electron beam and focused ion beam lithography, allowing for the top-down fabrication of low-dimensional structures. Another approach to make plasmonic structures in a bottom-up fashion is colloidal synthesis, which is convenient for liquid-state applications or very thin solid films where aggregation problems are an important challenge. The architectures prepared using these methods are typically not robust enough for easy handling and convenient integration. Therefore, developing a new plasmonic robust platform having large-scale dimensions without adversely affecting the plasmonic features is in high demand. As a solution, here we present a new plasmonic composite structure consisting of gold nanoparticles （Au NPs） incorporated into sucrose macrocrystals on a large scale, while preserving the plasmonic nature of the Au NPs and providing robustness in handling at the same time. As a proof of concept demonstration, we present the fluorescence enhancement of green CdTe quantum dots （QDs） via plasmonic coupling with these Au NPs in the sucrose crystals. The obtained composite material exhibits centimeter scale dimensions and the resulting quantum efficiency （QE） is enhanced via the interplay between the Au NPs and CdTe QDs by 58% （from 24% to 38%）. Moreover, a shortening in the photoluminescence lifetime from 11.0 to 7.40 ns, which corresponds to a field enhancement factor of 2.4, is observed upon the introduction of Au NPs into the QD incorporated macrocrystals. These results suggest that such ＂sweet＂ plasmonic crystals are promising for large-scale robust platforms to embed plasmonic nanoparticles.
