In this communication, two single-input multiple-output (SIMO) type biquad filters employing operational transresistance amplifiers (OTRAs) have been presented. Various parameters of the proposed filter circuits viz. pole frequency (ɷ), pole quality factor (Q) and the gain are independently controllable. The proposed filter configurations can also be converted into low frequency oscillators with fully uncoupled control of condition of oscillation and frequency of oscillation with quadrature output voltages. The active and passive sensitivities of the proposed circuits have been found to be small. SPICE simulation results and experimental validation of the proposed circuits employing OTRAs realized with AD844 type CFOAs have also been presented.

The paper presents a nonlinear hydrodynamic numerical model with multiple-states proportional-derivative (PD) controllers for simulating the ship's tracking in random sea. By way of the rudder operation, the track-keeping ability of the PD controller on the ship is examined using the line-of-sight (LOS) guidance technique. Furthermore, the roll-reduction function using the rudder control is also included in the PD controller. From the present simulation results, the single-input multiple-output (SIMO) heading/roll PD controller including LOS technique developed here indeed works, either for the roll reduction or for track keeping while the ship is maneuvering in waves.

A number of sinusoidal oscillators using current differencing buffered amplifiers (CDBAs) have been reported in the literature. However, only three of them are canonic quadrature oscillators (i.e., requiring two capacitors). The aim of this letter is to present additional realizations of single/dual-resistance-controlled quadrature oscillators using CDBAs. Four voltage-mode quadrature oscillators are proposed, which provide the following advantageous features: (i) use of reduced and canonic component count, viz. two CDBAs, three/four resistors and two capacitors, (ii) all passive components are grounded or virtually grounded, which is favorable from integration point of view and (iii) independent and non-interactive resistor control of the condition of oscillation (CO) and the frequency of oscillation (FO). Simulation results verifying the workability of the proposed circuits have been included.

This paper analyzes a resonant inductive wireless power transfer link using a single transmitter and multiple receivers. The link is described as an (N+1)–port network and the problem of efficiency maximization is formulated as a generalized eigenvalue problem. It is shown that the desired solution can be derived through simple algebraic operations on the impedance matrix of the link. The analytical expressions of the loads and the generator impedances that maximize the efficiency are derived and discussed. It is demonstrated that the maximum realizable efficiency of the link does not depend on the coupling among the receivers that can be always compensated. Circuital simulation results validating the presented theory are reported and discussed.

During the last two decades, the detection of coal seam discontinuities by seismic waves guided by the seam has become a special branch of exploration seismics in Europe. Waves consisting purely of SH motion (so‐called waves of Love type) are of special interest, and the rather high frequencies of the Airy phase, in thin seams, are most important because they present very high reflectivity at seam interruptions. Absorption increases with frequency in most layers, and therefore attenuates the high Airy‐phase frequencies more severely than the earlier low‐frequency part of the guided waves. Another fact additionally impairs the Airy‐phase signal: the quality factor Q is much lower in coal than in the schists and sandstones of the Carboniferous country rock. Unfortunately, most of the energy of the Airy phase is transferred by the coal, whereas the lower frequencies have their main energy conveyed by the country rock above and below the seam. In order to allow a better understanding of the influence of absorption on Love‐type seam waves, several simplified computations were carried out for the fundamental mode of a seam typical for the northwest‐German Ruhr area. The assumptions are as follows: The quality factors [Formula: see text] for coal and [Formula: see text] for the country rock do not depend upon frequency; higher powers of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] can be neglected; and the distance from the source is large enough to allow the two‐dimensional plane‐wave case to be considered. The mathematics resulting from these assumptions and adequate data processing of transmission records provides the possibility to determine the quality factor [Formula: see text] of coal in‐situ, although the thickness of the seam may be much smaller than the wavelengths involved. [Formula: see text] may become of interest for practical mining problems.

AbstractHigh quality-factor (Q) optical resonators are a key component for ultra-narrow linewidth lasers, frequency stabilization, precision spectroscopy and quantum applications. Integration in a photonic waveguide platform is key to reducing cost, size, power and sensitivity to environmental disturbances. However, to date, the Q of all-waveguide resonators has been relegated to below 260 Million. Here, we report a Si3N4 resonator with 422 Million intrinsic and 3.4 Billion absorption-limited Qs. The resonator has 453 kHz intrinsic, 906 kHz loaded, and 57 kHz absorption-limited linewidths and the corresponding 0.060 dB m−1 loss is the lowest reported to date for waveguides with deposited oxide upper cladding. These results are achieved through a careful reduction of scattering and absorption losses that we simulate, quantify and correlate to measurements. This advancement in waveguide resonator technology paves the way to all-waveguide Billion Q cavities for applications including nonlinear optics, atomic clocks, quantum photonics and high-capacity fiber communications.

A new single-input multiple-output (SIMO) converter is proposed in this work by incorporating flyback and buck converters in a master–slave configuration. The objective of this work is to address the cross regulation problem, achieve tight voltage regulation, improve the circuit form factor and attain a fast transient response for a SIMO flyback converter. The flyback converter maintains the output channels within 10% of their rated voltages and the SIMO buck converter is placed in series with the flyback converter such that it compensates for the output voltage deviation. Moreover, a time multiplexing switching scheme decouples output channel to eliminate the cross-regulation problem and remove the need for an additional winding transformer per each output channel. A type II compensator with a peak current mode controller was designed to achieve faster transient response which is critical for the proposed configuration. A thorough steady-state analysis was carried out on a triple output channel topology to obtain the design criteria and component values. MATLAB/Simscape modelling and simulation was used to validate the effectiveness of the proposed converter with the result yielding satisfactory transience even with load disturbance. Additionally, the result of the proposed converter is compared with previously published works.

Replacing stiff pitch links on rotorcraft with coupled fluidic devices has the potential to reduce the aerodynamic blade loads transmitted through the pitch links to the swashplate. Analytical models of two fluidic devices coupled with three different fluidic circuits are derived. These passive fluidlastic systems are tuned, by varying the fluid inertances and capacitances of each fluidic circuit, to reduce the transmitted pitch-link loads. The different circuit designs result in transmitted pitch-link loads reduction at up to three main rotor harmonics. The simulation results show loads reduction at the targeted out-of-phase and in-phase harmonics of up to 88% and 93%, respectively. Experimental validation of two of the fluidic circuits demonstrates loads reduction of up to 89% at the out-of-phase isolation frequencies and up to 81% at the in-phase isolation frequencies.
