A particle image velocimetry (PIV) was applied to a flow measurement in a transonic centrifugal impeller. A phase locked measurement technique every $20\%$ blade pitch enabled a reconstruction of a velocity field over one blade pitch. The measured velocity field at the inducer of impeller clearly showed a shock wave generated on the suction surface of a blade.

Orthogonal freqency division multiplexing (OFDM) is an attractive technique for achieving high-bit-rate wireless data transmission. However, the potentially large peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) has limited its application; An OFDM signal with the large PAPR can cause power degradation (In-band distortion) and spectral spreading (Out-of-band distortion) by being clipped passing through a power amplifier. Thus, we propose the combining algorithm of Hadamard transform and phase shift, which is ascribed to the relation between the correlation of the IFFT input sequence function and PAPR. Extensive computer simulations show that the combining algorithm is an effective technique to reduce PAPR.

A comparative study of single-phase PWM converters having active filtering functions both on ac-input and dc-output sides have been carried out. Based on the function of the dc-output side active filter, two types of configurations, the RPM (ripple power managing) type and the APM (average power managing) type are compared to show their contrastive characteristics. The prototype system using DSP based control algorithms, i.e. deadbeet current control and voltage sensor-less technique using full-order observer, show the availability of the proposed system.

A very simple and efficient scheme for jitter reduction is proposed for a carrier frequency recovery loop using phase differential frequency estimation, which estimates the current frequency offset based on the difference of the average phases of two successive intervals. Analytical and numerical results presented in this paper show that by simply overlapping the observation intervals by half for frequency offset estimations, both the steady-state and transient performances can be improved. The proposed scheme does not require any additional hardware circuitry, but results in improved performance even with reduced complexity.

A fully integrated parallel-coupled 6-GHz quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator (QVCO) has been designed. The symmetrical parallel-coupled quadrature VCO is implemented using 0.13-${\mu}m$ CMOS process. The measured phase noise is -101.05 dBc/Hz at an offset frequency of 1 MHz. The tuning range of 710 MHz is achieved with a control voltage ranging from 0.3 to 1.4 V. The average output phase error is about $1.26^{\circ}$ including cables and connectors. The QVCO dissipates 10 mA including buffer from the 1.5 V supply voltage. The output characteristic of the differential injection-locked frequency divider (DILFD), which has similar topology to the QVCO, is presented.

One of the drawbacks in an OFDM system is the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). Among a number of techniques to reduce the high PAPR, simple amplitude predistortion (SAP), a form of active constellation extension, has been proposed to effectively achieve the desired PAPR. In this letter, a novel scheme, simple amplitude and phase predistortion (SAPP), is proposed. In SAP the carriers' amplitude is utilized to combat the peak signal. Each amplitude is amplified according to its degree of contribution as a metric. In addition to amplitude, SAPP also utilizes the phase. Simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme provides better PAPR reduction than SAP.

In this paper, a selective coefficient updating (SCU) approach at each branch of the per-tone equalization (PTEQ) structure has been applied for insufficient cyclic prefix (CP) length. Because of the high number of adaptive filters and their complex adaption process in the PTEQ structure, SCU has been proposed. Using this method leads to a reduction in the computational complexity, while the performance remains almost unchanged. Moreover, the use of set-membership filtering with variable step size is proposed for a sufficient CP case to increase convergence speed and decrease the average number of calculations. Simulation results show that despite the aforementioned algorithms having similar performance in comparison with conventional algorithms, they are able to reduce the number of calculations necessary. In addition, compensation of both the channel effect and the transmitter/receiver in-phase/quadrature-phase imbalances are achievable by these algorithms.

A blind hopping phase estimator is proposed for the demodulation of received signals in frequency-hopping spread spectrum systems. The received signals are assumed to be bandwidth limited with a shaping filter, modulated as frequency modulation (FM) or binary frequency shift keying (BFSK), and hopped by predetermined random frequency sequences. In the demodulation procedure in this paper, the hopping frequency tracking is accomplished by choosing a frequency component with maximum amplitude after taking a discrete Fourier transform, and the hopping phase estimator performs the conjugated product of two consecutive signals and moving-average filtering. The probability density function and Cramer-Rao low bound (CRLB) of the proposed estimator are evaluated. The proposed scheme not only is very simple to implement but also performs close to the CRLB in demodulating hopped FM/BFSK signals.

The paper presents a numerical study to evaluate the phase velocities and attenuations of the average longitudinal and shear ultrasonic waves resulting from multiple scattering in fiber-reinforced composites. A computational procedure developed in this work is first used to produce a random, yet largely even distribution of fibers. Both the viscoelastic epoxy matrix and lossless randomly distributed graphite fibers are modeled using the mass-spring-dashpot lattice model, with no damping for the latter. By numerically simulating ultrasonic through-transmission tests using this direct model of composites, phase velocities and attenuations of the longitudinal and shear waves through the composite are found as functions of frequency or fiber concentration. The numerical results are observed to generally agree with the corresponding results in the literature. Discrepancies found in some detail aspects, particularly in the attenuation results, are also addressed.
