Low Noise and high linearity Wide-band Low Noise Amplifier for 5G Receiver Front End System

This work Demonstrates a wideband LNA for 5G receiver front end modules with high linearity, Low noise reused topology has an inter stage wideband inductor based two common source cascade stages. The configuration provides the bias current; better Noise figure increases the forward gain. By providing RC Series network at gate terminal of second stage the return losses are reduced and stability will be increased. After pre and post simulation all parameters are better than the existing LNAS. After post simulation results, the Noise figure is achieved less than 1dB and forward gain as flat 16dB for wide band width of 1.5 – 5.5 GHz. At the 1dB compression point the output is 20dbm achieved and OIP3 IS +40dbm is achieved. The chip size of an LNA along with pad is 0.64mm2. The design is GaAsp HEMT process at 50nm technology.

Relook at Aileron to Rudder Interconnect

The implementation of interconnect gain from aileron to rudder surface on the majority of the aircraftis to decrease sideslip which is generated because of adverse yaw with the movement of control stick in lateral axis and also enhances the turning rate performance.The Aileron to Rudder Interconnect (ARI)involves significant part to decouple the Dutch roll oscillations from roll rate response to aileron command. ARI is feed-forward gain whichis susceptible to aircraft system uncertainty. Incorrect ARI gain can lead to side slip buildup which can cause aircraft to depart in case of fault scenarios. Four systematic ARI design methods are proposed. One of the proposed methods which use the norm of ARI transfer function at roll damping frequency is suitable for online reconfiguration of control law. The reconfiguration of ARI gain is illustratedwith the simulation responses of fault scenario case of aileron surface damage.

Research of Conventional and Observer Based Controller for Three Tank Interacting System

In many Industries, the fault tolerant control scheme have been accepted and used from many decades. In this paper, the observer and the observer based Controller is designed for the three tank interacting system. Initially in this work, the three tank interacting system with Single Input Single Output configuration is modeled and conventional PID controller has been implemented, finally the performances are analyzed. Then the observer is designed for the three tank interacting system. Inorder to design the observer based controller, the control law and the feed forward gain value is calculated and described by Chakrabarti A et al.[4]. Finally the observer based controller performances are also analyzed. In this work, the sensor is replaced by the state observer. The observer based controller provides better performance than the conventional PID controller. This work may lead to design fault tolerant control for three tank interacting system in future.

Stabilizing and Swinging-Up the Inverted Pendulum Using PI and PID Controllers Based on Reduced Linear Quadratic Regulator Tuned by PSO

The inherited instabilities in the Inverted Pendulum (IP) system make it one of the most difficult nonlinear problems in the control theory. In this research work, Proportional –Integral and Derivative (PID) Controller with a feed forward gain is used with Reduced Linear Quadratic Regulator (RLQR) for stabilizing the Cart Position and Swinging-up the Pendulum angle. Tuning the Controllers' gains is achieved by using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) Technique. Obtaining the combined PID controllers' gains with a feed forward gain and RLQR is a multi-dimensions control problem. The Proposed Controllers give minimum Settling Time, Rise Time, Undershoot and Over shoot for both the Cart Position and the Pendulum angle. A disturbance with different amplitudes is applied to the system, and the results showed the robustness of the systems based on the tuned controllers. The overall results are promising.

Optimization of building blocks for multi-stage 17–44 dB 6.1–9.6 mW 90-nm K-band front-ends

In this article, five two-stage ∼6-mW and four three-stage ∼9-mW matched amplifier architectures are proposed to establish optimization procedure and quantify relative merits of cascode (CC), common-gate (CG), and commonsource (CS) building blocks for low-voltage low-power multi-stage front-ends. The circuits are simulated with a 90-nm CMOS technology including modeling of layout parasites. Integrated bias trees and passive port matching networks are incorporated in the K-band designs. In the face of process mismatch, variability in noise and gain figures remains <0.39 dB and <7.1 dB from the design values. The five combinations of building blocks in twostage low-power (6.1–6.6 mW) amplifiers achieve linearity (IIP3) in the range of −5.2∼–13.5 dBm, good reverse isolation (better than −26 dB), 2.89–3.82 dB noise penalties, and 17.2–25.5 dB peak forward gain. In case of threestage front-ends built with CS, CC, and CG blocks (power rating 9.2–9.6 mW), forward gain and optimized noise figures are found as >33 dB and <3.26 dB, respectively. They achieve −2.5∼18.3 dBm IIP3, <−39 dB reverse isolation, and <−17 dB minimum IRL. The results are compared with reported simulated findings on CMOS multistage amplifiers to highlight their relative advantages in terms of power requirement and decibel(gain)-per-watt.
