Fabricate An 8.35-Ghz Frequency Synthesizer, A. Attaran, Hossein Ameri Mahabadi, M. Moghavvemi Sep 2011

Fabricate An 8.35-Ghz Frequency Synthesizer, A. Attaran, Hossein Ameri Mahabadi, M. Moghavvemi

The article presents information on designing a low-noise frequency synthesizer for achieving low-phase-noise outputs past 8 GHz for digital microwave radios (DMRs). These synthesizers can be used with the DMRs, depending on advanced digital modulation such as quadrature-amplitude-modulation (QAM) and quadrature-phase-shift-keying (QPSK) formats.

A design and fabrication of a dual-band synthesizer device is presented in this paper. The noise analysis in synthesizer loop block component is modeled individually. The Design methodology is elaborated along with the test results. The initial frequency synthesizer in 1.8-2.4GHz frequency range (L and S-band) is designed and it is multiplied by 8. Microstrip bandpass filters (LFCN) are used to filter out the spurious frequency contents; the final output frequency is 14-20GHz (Ku-band). Phase noise investigation, design steps, filter assembling of 14-20GHz synthesizer is presented in this paper.

This system should help managing the visitors and tour guides as well as scheduling tours to visit “Petronas Twin Towers Sky Bridge”. The system should at least support the following characteristics. It should keep track of visitors and or tourists. It should keep information about tour guides and their working hour and other related information about such employees. The administrators should be able to schedule their visiting hours. This is a work-flow system and it need to keep track of daily visitors. The requirement was meant for this system is straight forward and very clear with so little complexity. On …


A Compact Analytical Design Of Dual-Loop 18 Ghz Frequency Synthesizer To Enhance Signal Reliability In Digital Millimeter Radio Link System, M. Moghavvemi, Hossein Ameri Mahabadi, A. Attaran Jul 2011

A Compact Analytical Design Of Dual-Loop 18 Ghz Frequency Synthesizer To Enhance Signal Reliability In Digital Millimeter Radio Link System, M. Moghavvemi, Hossein Ameri Mahabadi, A. Attaran

In this paper a high resolution dual-loop 17.7–19.7 GHz frequency synthesizer is presented which is compatible with ITU-R (F.595-6) standards. The investigations of phase noise and spur frequency contents are discussed in detail. The simulated and measured phase noise and spur frequency contents are similar to one another. Phase noise of –81 dBc/Hz in 17.7 GHz at 10 KHz offset frequency is measured by (HP8560) series Spectrum analyzer and it matches with predicted measurements.

This body-biased voltage-controlled oscillator provides reasonably good phase-noise performance over a broad tuning range with relatively low power consumption and low jitter timing noise in the time domain.


Control Of A Bidirectional Z-Source Inverter Forelectric Vehicle Applications In Different Operation Modes, Omar Ellabban, Joeri Van Mierlo, Philippe Lataire Mar 2011

Control Of A Bidirectional Z-Source Inverter Forelectric Vehicle Applications In Different Operation Modes, Omar Ellabban, Joeri Van Mierlo, Philippe Lataire

Omar Ellabban

This paper proposes two control strategies for the bidirectional Z-source inverters (BZSI) supplied by batteries for electric vehicle applications. The first control strategy utilizes the indirect field-oriented control (IFOC) method to control the induction motor speed. The proposed speed control strategy is able to control the motor speed from zero to the rated speed with the rated load torque in both motoring and regenerative braking modes. The IFOC is based on PWM voltage modulation with voltage decoupling compensation to insert the shoot-through state into the switching signals using the simple boost shoot-through control method. The parameters of the four PI …


Microstrip Diplexers With Double-Stub Bandpass Filters, M. Khalaj-Amirhosseini, M. Moghavvemi, Hossein Ameri Mahabadi, A. Attaran Feb 2011

Microstrip Diplexers With Double-Stub Bandpass Filters, M. Khalaj-Amirhosseini, M. Moghavvemi, Hossein Ameri Mahabadi, A. Attaran

Hossein Ameri Mahabadi

This paper presents a microstrip diplexer using two Double-Stub Band-Pass Filters (DS-BPFs), composed of several double-stubs connected to a main microstrip line. Each DS-BPF has a null at the center frequency of the other. Therefore, these types of filters are suitable for diplexers with two near frequencies. A diplexer at frequencies 5.875 and 6.225 GHz is designed, fabricated and measured. Measured results of the fabricated diplexer have a good agreement with the calculated results.


Design And Implementation Of A Dsp Based Dual-Loop Capacitor Voltage Control Of The Z-Source Inverter, Omar Ellabban, Joeri Van Mierlo, Philippe Lataire Feb 2011

Design And Implementation Of A Dsp Based Dual-Loop Capacitor Voltage Control Of The Z-Source Inverter, Omar Ellabban, Joeri Van Mierlo, Philippe Lataire

Omar Ellabban

The Z-source inverter is a recently proposed single stage converter topology with buck-boost capabilities. This paper proposes a dual-loop capacitor voltage control, with outer voltage loop and inner current loop, of the Z-source inverter (ZSI). Both controller are designed based on a third order small signal model of the ZSI using the direct digital design method. Real-time control algorithm is implemented using DSP linked with MATLAB real time workshop (RTW) as rapid prototyping tool. The feasibility of the proposed dual loop control method has been verified by the simulation and experimental results.
