It uses the whole matching and maintaining order characters of the epipolar line, Fourier transform and dynamic programming matching theories, thus truly synthesizing the destination image of current viewpoint. Through the combination of Fourier transform, epipolar geometry constraint and dynamic programming matching, the circumference distortion problem resulting from conventional view synthesis approaches is effectively avoided. The detailed implementation steps of this algorithm are given, and some running instances are presented to illustrate the results.展开更多

This 14-bit DAC uses a "5+9"segment PMOS current-steering architecture. A bias circuit which ensures the PMOS current source obtains a larger output impedance under every PVT(process, source voltage and temperature) corner is also presented. The8 to 1 MUX has a 3 stage structure, and a proper timing sequence is designed to ensure reliable data synthesis. A DEM function which is merged with a "5-31"decoder is used to improve the DAC's dynamic performance. This DAC is embedded in a 2.5 GHz direct digital frequency synthesizer(DDS) chip, and is implemented in a 0.18 m CMOS technology, occupies 4.86 2. 28 mm-2 including bond pads(DAC only), and the measured performance is SFDR 〉 40 d B(with and without DEM) for output signal frequency up to 1 GHz. Compared with other present published DACs with a non-analog-resample structure(means return-to-zero or quad-switch structure is unutilized),this paper DAC's clock frequency(2.5 GHz) and higher output frequency SFDR(〉 40 d B, up to 1 GHz) has some competition.展开更多
