Modeling And Simulation Concepts In Engineering Education: Virtual Tools, Levent Sevgi̇ Jan 2006

Modeling And Simulation Concepts In Engineering Education: Virtual Tools, Levent Sevgi̇

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This article reviews fundamental concepts of modeling and simulation in computational sciences, such as a model, analytical- and numerical-based modeling, simulation, validation, verification, etc., in relation to the virtual labs widely-offered as parts of engineering education. Virtual tools that can be used in electromagnetic engineering are also introduced.


Uplink Practical Capacity And Interference Statistics Of Wcdma Cigar-Shaped Microcells For Highways In Rural Zones With Non-Uniform Spatial Traffic Distribution And Imperfect Power Control, Bazil Taha Ahmed, Miguel Calvo Ramon, Leandro De Haro-Ariet Jan 2006

Uplink Practical Capacity And Interference Statistics Of Wcdma Cigar-Shaped Microcells For Highways In Rural Zones With Non-Uniform Spatial Traffic Distribution And Imperfect Power Control, Bazil Taha Ahmed, Miguel Calvo Ramon, Leandro De Haro-Ariet

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The capacity (the maximum number of users per sector that the system can support) and the interference statistics (expected value and variance) of sectors composed of cigar-shaped WCDMA microcells are studied. A model of 5 microcells is used to analyze the uplink capacity and interference statistics. The microcells are assumed to exist in rural zone highways. The capacity and the interference statistics of the microcells are studied for different non-uniform spatial traffic distributions. As user density decreases away from the base station, the capacity of the sector increases due to the reduced total power transmitted by the interfering users.


State Of The Art For Differential Circuits In Wireless Transceivers: A New Wideband Active Balun In Sige Bicmos Technology, Balwant Godara, Alain Fabre Jan 2006

State Of The Art For Differential Circuits In Wireless Transceivers: A New Wideband Active Balun In Sige Bicmos Technology, Balwant Godara, Alain Fabre

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The aim of this paper is 3-fold: firstly, to provide a comprehensive overview of the use of differential circuits for analogue signal processing in wireless transceivers; secondly, to describe, in detail, single-ended signal to differential conversion, and the corresponding theory of such devices, their characterisation, various methods of implementation, and comparative analyses of their performance; lastly, to propose a new transistor-based solution for wideband baluns. This novel solution is based on the current conveyor and has been modelled using the transistor parameters of a 0.35 \mu m SiGe BiCMOS technology. The salient features of the new implementation are: (a) stable …


Digital Fractional Frequency Synthesizer Based On Counters, Milan Stork Jan 2006

Digital Fractional Frequency Synthesizer Based On Counters, Milan Stork

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper describes the architecture of a new pure digital frequency synthesizer based on pulse generators, counters and a register. The technique described here is much simpler than other methods. The synthesizer presented is suitable for the design of VLSI architectures or for programmable large-scale integration circuits.
