Throughput analysis for multicast switches with multiple input queues

This letter analyzes the saturated throughput for multicast switches with multiple input queues per input port. Under the assumptions of a Poisson uniform traffic model and random packet scheduling policy, we derive the multicast switch saturated throughput under different fanouts. To verify the analysis, extensive simulations are conducted with different switch sizes and fanouts. It is shown that the theoretical analysis and the simulation results have a discrepancy less than 1.9%. Results from this letter can be used as a guidance to design the optimal queuing for multicast switches.     

基于SOI的双极场效应晶体管

在分析了双极型晶体管和场效应晶体管各自的特点和不足后，介绍了一种既具有双极型晶体管较大电流容量和功率输出，又具有场效应晶体管高输入阻抗的电子器件——双极MOS场效应晶体管(BJMOSFET)，同时指出体硅BJMOSFET的阳极扩散区与衬底之间存在较大的漏电流，可产生较大的寄生效应。提出了一种新型固体电子器件——基于SOI的BJMOSFET，分析了其工作原理j与体硅BJMOSFET比较，由于SOI技术完整的介质隔离避免了体硅器件中存在的大部分寄生效应，使基于SOI的BJMOSFET在体效应、热载流子效应、寄生电容、短沟道效应和闩锁效应等方面具有更优良的特性。     

Transmission performance of 10-Gb/s 1550-nm transmitters using semiconductor optical amplifiers as booster amplifiers

We have demonstrated the transmission performance of 10-Gb/s transmitters based on LiNbO/sub 3/ modulator using semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) as booster amplifiers. Utilizing the negative chirp converted in SOAs and self-phase modulation induced by high optical power, we can successfully transmit 10-Gb/s optical signals over 80 km through the standard single-mode fiber with the transmitter using SOAs as booster amplifiers. SOAs can be used for booster amplifiers with a careful adjustment of the operating conditions. In order to further understand an SOA's characteristics as a booster amplifier, we model SOAs and other subsystems to verify the experimental results. Based on the good agreement between the experimental and simulation results, we can find the appropriate parameters of input signals for SOAs, such as extinction ratio, rising/falling time, and chirp parameter to maximize output dynamic range and available maximum output power (P/sub o,max/).     

Lost retransmission detection for TCP SACK

There have been a lot of works to avoid retransmission timeout (RTO) of transmission control protocol (TCP) that takes place in an unnecessary situation. However, most current TCP implementations, even if selective acknowledgment (SACK) option is used, do not have a mechanism to detect a lost retransmission and avoid subsequent RTO. In this letter, we propose a simple modification that enables a TCP sender using SACK option to detect a lost retransmission, which is called TCP SACK+ in simple. We use a stochastic model to evaluate the performance of TCP SACK+. Numerical results evaluated by simulations show that TCP SACK+ improves the loss recovery of TCP SACK significantly in presence of random losses.     

Geometric derivation of expectation-maximization and generalized successive interference cancellation algorithms with applications to CDMA channel estimation

The expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm is well established as a computationally efficient method for separable signal parameter estimation. Here, a new geometric derivation and interpretation of the EM algorithm is given that facilitates the understanding of EM convergence properties. Geometric considerations lead to an alternative separable signal parameter estimator based on successive cancellation. The new generalized successive interference cancellation (GSIC) algorithm is then applied to multiuser delay and channel estimation for code-division multiple access (CDMA) radiolocation and communication. The radiolocation application uses a handshaking protocol in which multiple reference nodes transmit acknowledge (ACK) CDMA packets to a master node, which then computes round-trip travel times (RTTs). Simulation results comparing EM and GSIC are presented for the CDMA channel-estimation problem.     

A study of the numerical dispersion relation for the 2-D ADI-FDTD method

This letter presents a numerical dispersion relation for the two-dimensional (2-D) finite-difference time-domain method based on the alternating-direction implicit time-marching scheme (2-D ADI-FDTD). The proposed analytical relation for 2-D ADI-FDTD is compared with those relations in the previous works. Through numerical tests, the dispersion equation of this work was shown as correct one for 2-D ADI-FDTD.     

Simultaneous amplification by Er ions and SRS in an Er-doped germano-silica fiber

A flat signal gain over in the entire C- and L-bands by erbium (Er) ions' radiative transition and stimulated Raman scattering in an Er-doped germano-silica fiber can be obtained if proper values of the concentration of Er and background loss in a fiber core are obtained during the fiber fabrication process. The optimized conditions for the flat C- and L-band gain are analyzed as functions of Er concentrations. Even for a low-gain value provided by a germano-silica core fiber with a low Er concentration and an optimum fiber length, a relatively low pump is required to obtain the flat gain band.

医学超声图像处理系统

超声图像诊断是与X线CT、同位素扫描、核磁共振等一样重要的医学图像诊断手段。根据肝脏超声图像进行脂肪肝的诊断,是病变确诊的主要方法。但是,与CT和核磁共振等医学图像相比,超声图像的图像质量较差,目前的诊断以定性为主,受主观因素影响较大。以图像分割为基础,以VC语言为工具,建立了超声图像处理系统,对超声图像进行了二值化处理,并对处理结果进行了量化,为诊断提供了依据。     

Advanced disturbance observer design for mechanical positioning systems

Disturbance-observer (DOB)-based controller design is one of the most popular methods in the field of motion control. In this paper, the generalized disturbance compensation framework, named the robust internal-loop compensator (RIC) is introduced and an advanced design method of a DOB is proposed based on the RIC. The mixed sensitivity optimization problem, which is the main issue of DOB design, is also solved through the parametrization of the DOB in the RIC framework. Differently from conventional methods, the Q-filter is separated from the mixed sensitivity optimization problem and a systematic design law for the DOB is proposed. This guarantees the robustness and optimality of the DOB and enables the design for unstable plants.
