Abstract Analog circuit realization of fractional order (FO) elements is a significant step for the industrialization of FO control systems because of enabling a low-cost, electric circuit realization by means of standard industrial electronics components. This study demonstrates an effective operational amplifier-based analog circuit realization of approximate FO integral elements for industrial electronics. To this end, approximate transfer function models of FO integral elements, which are calculated by using Matsuda’s approximation method, are decomposed into the sum of low-pass filter forms according to the partial fraction expansion. Each partial fraction term is implemented by using low-pass filters and amplifier circuits, and these circuits are combined with a summing amplifier to compose the approximate FO integral circuits. Widely used low-cost industrial electronics components, which are LF347N opamps, resistor and capacitor components, are used to achieve a discrete, easy-to-build analog realization of the approximate FO integral elements. The performance of designed circuit is compared with performance of Krishna’s FO circuit design and performance improvements are shown. The study presents design, performance validation and experimental verification of this straightforward approximate FO integral realization method.

Homodyne photothermal spectrometry (HPS) is a very wide bandwidth signal recovery technique which uses many of the elements of lock-in detection at very low cost. The method uses a frequency sweep, with a high-frequency bandwidth of up to 10 MHz, to excite a linear photothermal system. The response sweep of the photothermal system is downshifted into a bandwidth of a few kilohertz by means of in-phase mixing with the excitation sweep with the use of a four-quadrant double-balanced mixer and a low-pass filter. Under conditions derived from theory, the filter output gives a good approximation to the real part of the photothermal system's frequency response, dispersed as a function of time. From a recording of this signal, the frequency and impulse response of the photothermal system are rapidly recovered at very high resolution. The method has been tested with the use of laser photopyroelectric effect spectrometry and provides an inexpensive, convenient method for the recovery of high-frequency photothermal signals.

Abstract The important challenge for the realization of hearing aids is small size, low cost, low power consumption and better performance, etc. Keeping these requirements in view this work concentrates on the VLSI (Very Large Scale Integrated) implementation of analog circuit that mimic the PPSK (Passive Phase Shift Keying) demodulator with low pass filter. This research deals with RF Cochlear implant circuits and their data transmission. A PPSK modulator is used for uplink data transmission in biomedical implants with simultaneous power, data transmission This paper deals about the implementation of PPSK demodulator with related circuits and low pass filter which are used in cochlear implants consumes low power and operates at 14MHz frequency. These circuits are designed using FINFET 20nm technology with 0.4v DC supply voltage. The performance of proposed design over the previous design is operating at low threshold voltage, reduces static leakage currents and often observed greater than 30 times of improvement in speed performance

Abstract This paper presents novel solution of a fractional-order low-pass filter (FLPF). The proposed filter operates in the current mode and it is designed using third-order inverse follow-the-leader feedback topology and operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs), adjustable current amplifiers (ACAs), auxiliary multiple-output current follower (MO-CF) as simple active elements. The filter offers the beneficial ability of the electronic control of its order and also the pole frequency thanks to electronically controlled internal parameters of OTAs and ACAs. As an example, five particular values of fractional order of the FLPF were chosen and parameters of the filter were calculated. Similarly, also electronic control of the pole frequency of the filter was studied. The design correctness and proper function of the filter are supported by simulations with CMOS models and also by experimental laboratory measurements. Comparison of the simulation results of the proposed filter for two different approximations of the parameter sα is also included.

A reconfigurable bandwidth antenna for an impulse radio-UWB (IR/UWB) system design is illustrated in this paper. By adopting a continuously tunable low-pass filter by varactor at the feed of the antenna, the proposed antenna obtains a continuous tunable bandwidth from 1.02 GHz to 2.42 GHz. To ensure the identifiability of transmitted pulses in (IR-UWB) system, the antenna is analyzed in both frequency domain and time domain. The proposed antenna is valid with a system fidelity factor (SFF) above 0.8 while the bandwidth is tuning. The compact size, low cost, and tunable bandwidth with the identifiability of the transmitted pulse makes it suitable for UWB impulse radars to improve the utility ratio of frequency, and dynamic adjustment avoids interference of the IR-UWB in other communication frequency bands.
