Control voltage for baseband channel selection filter to select one of communication channels can be easily fluctuated according to external noise or variation of fabrication. In this paper, we design a voltage regulator with small chip area to keep control voltage constantly using current comparative method. Cut-off frequency of channel selection filter is automatically controlled by detecting current flow using the proposed voltage regulator.

This paper describes a low-voltage and low-power channel selection analog front end with continuous-time low pass filters and highly linear programmable-gain amplifier(PGA). The filters were realized as balanced Gm-C biquadratic filters to achieve a low current consumption. High linearity and a constant wide bandwidth are achieved by using a new transconductance(Gm) cell. The PGA has a voltage gain varying from 0 to 65dB, while maintaining a constant bandwidth. A filter tuning circuit that requires an accurate time base but no external components is presented. With a 1-Vrms differential input and output, the filter achieves -85dB THD and a 78dB signal-to-noise ratio. Both the filter and PGA were implemented in a 0.18um 1P6M n-well CMOS process. They consume 3.2mW from a 1.8V power supply and occupy an area of $0.19mm^2$.

A multiple output dc-dc resonant converter topology for an independent voltage control technique is proposed, using a narrow frequency selection band-pass filters. The multi-output converter is supplied by a single source inverter with the superposed sinusoidal signals reserved for each output. A series-series parallel resonant topology is utilized to implement the narrow frequency selection channels for minimum interference. Finally the experimental setup for four output dc-dc converter is verified with the narrow channel frequencies of 26 kHz, 32 kHz, 38 kHz and 46 kHz.

An active-RC channel selection filter (CSF) with the bandwidth of 40MHz and the improved linearity is proposed in this paper. The proposed CSF is the fifth butterworth filter which consists of a first order low pass filter, two second order low pass filters of a biquad architecture, and DC feedback circuit for cancellation of DC offset. To improve the linearity of the CSF, a body node of a MOSFET for a switch is connected to its source node. The bandwidth of the designed CSF is selected to be 10MHz, 20MHz and 40MHz and its voltage gain is controlled by 6 dB from 0 dB to 24 dB. The proposed CSF is designed by using 40nm 1-poly 8-metal CMOS process with a 1.2V. When the designed CSF operates at the bandwidth of 40 MHz and voltage gain of 0 dB, the simulation results of OIP3, in-band ripple, and IRN are 31.33dBm, 1.046dB, and 39.81nV/sqrt(Hz), respectively. The power consumption and layout area are $450{\times}210{\mu}m^2$ and 6.71mW.

In active noise control filter, LMS algorithms which used for control filter, assure the convergence property, and computational burden of these algorithms are proportionate to the filter taps. The convergence speed of LMS algorithms is mainly determined by value of the convergence coefficient, so optimal selection of the value of convergence coefficient is very important. In this paper, We proposed novel adaptive fuzzy logic LMS algorithms with FIR filter structure which has better convergence speed and less computational burden than conventional LMS algorithms, for single channel active noise control with ill conditioned signal case. Computer simulations were performed to show the effectiveness of a proposed algorithms.

We present our study of analyzing the photometric properties of the globular cluster (GC) system which resides in the extended halo of the central bright Coma cluster galaxy NGC 4874. The core of the Coma cluster of galaxies (Abell 1656) was observed with both the HST Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) in the F475W (g475) and F814W (I814) and Wide Field Camera 3 IR Channel (WFC3/IR) in the F160W (H160) filters. The data analysis procedure and GC candidate selection criteria are briefly described. We investigate the interesting "tilt" features in color-magnitude diagrams for this GC system and their link to the nonlinear color-metallicity relation for GCs. The NGC 4874's GC system exhibits a bimodal distribution in the optical g475-I814 color and much more than half the GCs fall in the red side at g475-I814 ~ 1.1. This bimodality is weakened in the optical-IR I814-H160 color; the quantitative analysis on the features of both color distributions using the Gaussian Mixture Modeling code proves the bimodalities are different. Both colors, thus, cannot linearly reflect the bimodality of an underlying metallicity, supporting the suggestion that observed bimodalities in extragalactic GC colors are the metallicity-to-color projection effect.
