A modified design that can reject the nth harmonic components in the Wilkinson power divider is presented. After adding transmission lines of electrical lengths determined by suppression terms between two transformers of the traditional design, a solution of the modified Wilkinson divider can be found. Experimental results show the second and third harmonic suppression to be -45.3 dB and -46.4 dB, respectively, while maintaining the conventional performance at the fundamental frequency.

This paper presents a dual-rate (2.4/4.0 kbps) Improved Harmonic-CELP(IHC) speech coder based on the EHC(Efficient Harmonic-CELP) which was presented by the authors. The proposed IHC employs the harmonic coding for voiced and the CELP for unvoiced segments. In the IHC, an initial voiced/unvoiced estimate is obtained by the pitch gain and energy. Then, the final V/UV mode is decided by using the frame energy contour. A new harmonic estimation combining peak picking and delta adjustment provides a more reliable harmonic estimation than that in the EHC. In addition, a noise mixing scheme in conjunction with an improved band voicing measurement provides the naturalness of the synthesized speech. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed IHC coder, the coder has been implemented and compared with the 2.0/4.0 kbps HVXC(Harmonic excitation Vector Coding) standardized by MPEG-4. Results of subjective evaluation showed that the proposed IHC coder and produce better speech quality than the HVXC, with only 40% complexity of the HVXC.

The power quality of Single Phase Grid-Connected Inverters (GCIs) has received much attention with the increasing number of Distributed Generation (DG) systems. However, the performance of single phase GCIs get degraded due to several factors such as the grid voltage harmonics, the dead time effect, and the turn ON/OFF of the switches, which causes the harmonics at the output of GCIs. Therefore, it is not easy to satisfy the harmonic standards such as IEEE 519 and P1547 without the help of harmonic compensator. To meet the harmonic standards a certain kind of harmonic controller needs to be added to the current control loop to effectively mitigate the low order harmonics. In this paper, the harmonic compensation is performed using a novel robust harmonic compensation method based on Digital Lock-in Amplifier (DLA). In the proposed technique, DLAs are used to extract the amplitude and phase information of the harmonics from the output current and compensate it by using a simple PI controller in the feedforward manner. In order to show the superior performance of the proposed harmonic compensation technique, it is compared with those of conventional harmonic compensation methods in terms of the effectiveness of harmonic elimination, complexity, and implementation. The validity of the proposed harmonic compensation techniques for the single phase GCIs is verified through the experimental results with a 5kW single phase GCI. Index Terms -Single Phase Grid Connected Inverter (SPGCI), Harmonic Compensation Method, Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and Harmonic Standard.

This paper presents the design and optimization of output matching network according to envelope for class F power amplifier(PA) which is to apply to envelope elimination and restoration(EER) transmitter. In this paper, to increase the PAE of class F power amplifier which applies to EER transmitter, the varactor diode has been used on output matching network. As envelope changes, it optimizes constitution of harmonic trap that is short circuit in 2nd-harmonic and is open circuit in 3rd-harmonic. When drain voltage changes from 25 V to 30 V, some percentage is improved in the PAE.put the abstract of paper here.

This paper describes an analog multi-phase delay-locked loop (DLL) to solve the harmonic lock problem using current-starved inverter and shunt-capacitor delay cell. The DLL can be used not only as an internal clock buffer of microprocessors and memory It's but also as a multi-phase clock generator for gigabit serial interfaces. The proposed circuit was simulated in a 0.25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS technology to solve harmonic lock problem and to realize fast lock-on time and low-jitter we verified time interval less than 40 ps as the simulation results.

In this paper, we investigate the properties of Bergman spaces, Bloch spaces and integral means of p-harmonic functions on the unit ball in ℝn. Firstly, we offer some Lipschitz-type and double integral characterizations for Bergman space ��kγ. Secondly, we characterize Bloch space ��αω in terms of weighted Lipschitz conditions and BMO functions. Finally, a Hardy-Littlewood type theorem for integral means of p-harmonic functions is established.

In this paper, a closed-loop system constructed with a linear plant and nonlinearity in the feedback connection is considered to argue against its planar orbital stability. Through a state space approach, a main result that presents a sufficient stability criterion of the limit cycle predicted by solving the harmonic balance equation is given. Preliminarily, the harmonic balance of the nonlinear feedback loop is assumed to have a solution that determines the characteristics of the limit cycle. Using a state-space approach, the nonlinear loop equation is reformulated into a linear perturbed model through the introduction of a residual operator. By considering a series of transformations, such as a modified eigenstructure decomposition, periodic averaging, change of variables, and coordinate transformation, the stability of the limit cycle can be simply tested via a scalar function and matrix. Finally, the stability criterion is addressed by constructing a composite Lyapunov function of the transformed system.

A microwave incoherent imaging method for a conducting cyliner by using multi-frequency tiem-harmonic field is presented in this study. In this paper, an incoherent intensity pattern of th econducting cylinder is obtained by averagin gout the multi-frequency intensities of the coherent field such as the time-harmonic field scattered from this cylinder. This phenomenon is hsown numerically in scattering by a conducting circular cylinder illuminated by the time-harmonic plane wave, and is interpreted analytically by the mutual coherence functon defined as a frequency-averaged intensity of the time-harmonic fields in th frequency domain.

For the rotation-invariant pattern recognition, we propose multiple circular harmonic filter which is expanded about the proper center. The proper centerm when input image is given, is the circular harmonic expansion center of the filter which yields a maximum center correlation peak in the output plane. In this paper, we founded the circular harmonic components that the proper center superposes on the same position and then designed multiple circular harmonic filter using these components. Also the proposed filter is compared with conventional multiple circular harmonic filter and shows that it can maximize the center correlation peak for the rotated input image by the computer simulation.

In order to realize an efficient and stable X-band harmonic generator, a 100 MHz frequency multiplier, an impulse generator using SRD(Step Recovery Diode) module, and a narrow-band bandpass waveguide filter have been designed and tested. By properly combining these devices an X-band harmonic generator has been realized. The output power of the harmonic generator was measured to be -1.5 dBm at 9 GHz which is the 90th harmonic of the 100MHz input. The power fluctuation of the harmonic generator due to temperature variation was observed to the about 0.15 dB during 24 hours of 4\ulcorner temperature variation.
