Multiport Synthesis With Multi-Layered Distributed Parameter Rc Networks, Walter Ronald Koenig
Multiport Synthesis With Multi-Layered Distributed Parameter Rc Networks, Walter Ronald Koenig
Doctoral Dissertations
"Synthesis and design techniques for multiport, multilayered, distributed parameter RC networks are investigated in this dissertation. The basic building block is a network section of uniform width consisting of alternate layers of resistive and dielectric materials on top of a perfectly conducting plane. The resulting network is composed of a cascade of these sections with all access terminals at one end of the cascaded network. The terminals at the other end are either open circuited or short circuited. A method is discussed for synthesizing a network from a prescribed network admittance matrix. An approximation technique is given for obtaining a …
Nonparametric Sequential Detection, James Charles Fowler
Nonparametric Sequential Detection, James Charles Fowler
Doctoral Dissertations
"This dissertation extends the theory of the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney U statistic so that this statistic can be used to perform sequential tests on hypotheses. This sequential test procedure makes use of a sequential ranking procedure similar to the one first introduced by Parent. The operating-characteristic function and average number of samples function for this new test are calculated as a function of the signal to noise ratio. The test is then shown to be efficient for several forms of alternatives with an efficiency of 95% against the Wald Sequential Probability Ratio Test for a constant signal in normal noise. Finally, the …
Signal Theoretic Characterization Of A Function Using Positive Exponential Basis Functions, James Julius Baremore
Signal Theoretic Characterization Of A Function Using Positive Exponential Basis Functions, James Julius Baremore
Doctoral Dissertations
"A signal theory characterization of a time function or signal is a representation of the function throughout a sample interval by an orthogonal basis function expansion. The characterization described here obtains the coefficients in the expansion by processing the input waveform, in real time, through a system of three terminal passive RC filters. The outputs of the filters are sampled periodically and the coefficients of the basis function expansion in that interval are related to these values. The basis functions result from an exponential transformation applied to the Legendre polynomials and are orthogonal in time over the sample interval. The …
Distributed Parameter Rc Network Analysis, Robert C. Peirson
Distributed Parameter Rc Network Analysis, Robert C. Peirson
Doctoral Dissertations
"Methods of analyzing uniform and tapered distribute [sic] parameter RC networks are reviewed and correlated in this dissertation. Multilayer networks and simple three layer networks are considered. Analogies between two-wire transmission line theory and multilayer distributed network theory are developed, i.e., standing wave and traveling wave concepts. An accurate computer-aided steady state analysis procedure is presented which has a solution accuracy that can be determined prior to actual analysis computations. The impulsive response of the uniform RC network is investigated with the goal of measuring the network's parameters. Procedures to determine the parameters R and C of a uniform RC …
Recombination Statistics For The Neutron-Induced Base Current Component, Ming-Chwan Chow
Recombination Statistics For The Neutron-Induced Base Current Component, Ming-Chwan Chow
Doctoral Dissertations
"This paper presents a derivation of the recombination statistical model for the neutron-induced base current component. The derivation was based on the assumptions: 1) the current equation for the induced current component developed by Goben is valid; 2) the Shockley-Read-Hall statistics for holes and electrons are applicable; and 3) the recombination statistics derived by Sah, Noyce and Shockley, for sites in the bulk space-charge region are valid. Several examples were presented to emphasize accuracy of this derived model for predictions. This paper shows that the recombination process may be described by a mathematical model, recombination statistics which depend on the …
