The purpose of this article is to make this approximation substantially more accurate by extending the Taylor expansion of the corresponding probability density function to include quadratic and cubic terms in several centralized sample means, and thus finding the corresponding -proportional correction to the original algorithm. We then demonstrate the new procedure’s usage, both for constructing confidence regions and for testing hypotheses, emphasizing that incorporating this correction carries minimal computational and programming cost. In our final chapter, we present two examples to indicate how significantly the new approximation improves the procedure’s accuracy.展开更多

Solutions are sought for the Euler model by employing a unified expansion of the logarithmic hodograph in terms of a set of intrinsic component functions analytically determined to represent all the intrinsic properties of the wave entity from the wave crest to its outskirts. The unknown coefficients in the expansion are determined by minimization of the mean-square error of the solution, with the minimization optimized so as to take as few terms as needed to attain results as high in accuracy as attainable. In this regard, Stokess formula, F<SUP>2</SUP>= tan , relating the wave speed (the Froude number F) and the logarithmic decrement of its wave field in the outskirt, is generalized to establish a new criterion requiring (for minimizing solution error) the functional expansion to contain a finite power series in M terms of Stokess basic term (singular in ), such that 2M is just somewhat beyond unity, i.e. 2M1. This fundamental criterion is fully validated by solutions for waves of various amplitude-to-water depth ratio =a/h, especially about 0.01, at which M=10 by the criterion. In this pursuit, the class of dwarf solitary waves, defined for waves with 0.01, is discovered as a group of problems more challenging than even the highest wave. For the highest wave, a new solution is determined here to give the maximum height <SUB>hst</SUB>=0.8331990, and speed F<SUB>hst</SUB>=1.290890, accurate to the last significant figure, which seems to be a new record.展开更多

At the input, the sample-andhold amplifier (SHA) is removed for low power and low noise; meanwhile, an improved sampling circuit is adopted to alleviate the clock skew effect. On-chip bias current is programmable to achieve low power dissipation at different sampling rates. Particularly, drain-to-source voltages in the operational amplifiers (opamps) are fixed to ensure high DC gain within the variant range of the bias current. Both on-chip and off-chip decoupling capacitors are used in the voltage reference circuit in consideration of low power and stability. The proposed ADC was implemented in 0.18-μm 1P6M CMOS technology. With a 2.4-MHz input, the measured peak SNDR and SFDR are 74.4 and 91.6 dB at 2.5 MSample/s, 74.3 and 85.4 dB at 8.0 MSample/s. It consumes 8.1, 21.6, 29.7, and 56.7 mW (including I/O drivers) when operating at 1.5, 2.5, 5.0, and 8.0 MSample/s with 2.7 V power supply, respectively. The chip occupies 3.2 mm^2, including I/O pads.展开更多
