In this paper, we propose a second-order fiber flexible comb filter based on a polarization-diversity loop(PDL). The proposed filter consists of a polarization beam splitter, four half-wave plates(HWPs), and three high birefringence fiber(HBF) segments. In the previous Solc-type second-order filter based on the PDL, HBF segments were fusion-spliced with a fixed angle offset between their principal axes with each other. But, the proposed filter implemented by inserting two HWPs between three HBF segments has a great flexibility in adjusting relative angular difference between the principal axes of two adjacent HBF segments. Owing to this flexibility, second-order transmission spectra, which had a channel spacing of ~0.8nm, could be interleaved by controlling the orientation angles of four HWPs. The output transmission spectra of the proposed filter were theoretically analyzed and experimentally verified.

Phase noise in a phase-locked-loop (PLL) is unwanted and unavoidable. It is a main concern in oscillation system especially PLL. The phase noise is derived in term of power spectrum density by using a reliable phase noise model. There are four noise sources being considered in this paper, which are generated by reference oscillator, voltage controlled oscillator, filter, and main divider. The major concern for this paper is the noise from the filter. Two types of second order low pass filter are used in the PLL system. Applying the mathematical phase noise model, the output noises are compared. The total noise from the passive filter is lower than the active filter at the offset frequency range between 1 Hz to 33 kHz.

This paper suggests a design method of an improved phase control loop for tracking resonant frequency of solid type precision resonant gyroscope. In general, a low cost MEMS gyroscope adapts the automatic gain control loops by taking a velocity feedback configuration. This control technique for controlling the resonance amplitude shows a stable performance. But in terms of resonant frequency tracking, this technique shows an unreliable performance due to phase errors because the AGC method cannot provide an active phase control capability. For the resonance control loop design of a solid type precision resonant gyroscope, this paper presents a phase domain control loop based on linear PLL (Phase Locked Loop). In particular, phase control loop is exploited using a higher order PLL loop filter by extending the first order active PI (Proportion-Integral) filter. For the verification of the proposed loop design, a hemispherical resonant gyroscope is considered. Numerical simulation result demonstrates that the control loop shows a robust performance against initial resonant frequency gap between resonator and voltage control oscillator. Also it is verified that the designed loop achieves a stable oscillation even under the initial frequency gap condition of about 25 Hz, which amounts to about 1% of the natural frequency of a conventional resonant gyroscope.

In this paper, we present a novel design for a dual-band bandpass filter (BPF) based on the conventional second-order, open-loop BPF. By adding series resonant circuits to the open ends of the resonator, we can create two resonant modes from the even and odd modes. One pair of the even and odd modes constitutes the upper passband, while the other pair constitutes the lower passband. By adding another series resonant circuit to the open-loop resonator, we can control the bandwidth of either the upper passband or the lower passband. We can replace the series resonant circuits with simple microstrip line resonators. A dual-band BPF working at both Wi-Fi bands (2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz bands) is designed based on the proposed method and is tested. The measured and simulated results show excellent agreement.

Capacitor current feedback active damping is extensively used in grid-connected converters with an LCL filter. However, systems tends to become unstable when the digital control delay is taken into account, especially in low switching frequencies. This paper discusses this issue by deriving a discrete model with a digital control delay and by presenting the stable region of an active damping loop from high to low switching frequencies. In order to overcome the disadvantage of capacitor current feedback active damping, this paper proposes a modified approach using grid current and converter current for feedback. This can expand the stable region and provide sufficient active damping whether in high or low switching frequencies. By applying the modified approach, the active damping loop can be simplified from fourth-order into second-order, and the design of the grid current loop can be simplified. The modified approach can work well when the grid impedance varies. Both the active damping performance and the dynamic performance of the current loop are verified by simulations and experimental results.

A phase-locked loop control system designed by using the linear quadratic regulator approach is presented in this paper. The system thus designed is optimal system when system is in locked state and the parameter value of loop filter which is an active PI filter can be obtained easily. By considering the structure of loop filter of phase-locked loop is included in the process to be controlled, a type 1 servo system can be constructed when voltage control oscillator is considered as an integrator. The integral gain of the proposed system obtained by linear quadratic regulator approach can be used as an optimal value to design the parameter of loop filter. The implemented result in controlling the second-order lag pressure process by using the proposed scheme show that the system response is fast with no overshoot and no steady-state error. Furthermore, the experimental results are also shown in term of output disturbance effect rejection, tracking and process parameter changed.

In this paper, the performance of the noncoherent code tracking loop designed at baseband for CDMA applications is analyzed in detail and is confirmed by computer simulations. Analytical closed-form formula for jitter variance is derived for AWGN channel environments as a function of pulse shaping filter, timing offset, signal-to-interference ratio, and loop filter coefficients. The design issue of the loop filter is also addressed with emphasis on the second-order tracking loop. Finally, the performance of the designed tracking loop is examined by computer simulations for both AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels, when applied to the reverse link of the coherent CDMA system for IMT-2000 designed by ETRI.

The PLL equivalent augmented system incorporated with state feedback is proposed in this paper. The optimal value of filter time constant of loop filter in the phase-locked loop control system and the optimal state feedback gain designed by using linear quadratic regulator approach are derived. This approach allows the PLL control system to employ the large value of the phase-frequency gain $K_d$ and voltage control oscillator gain $K_o$. In designing, the structure of phase-locked loop control system will be rearranged to be a phase-locked loop equivalent augmented system by including the structure of loop filter into the process and by considering the voltage control oscillator as an additional integrator. The designed controller consisting of state feedback gain matrix K and integral gain $k_1$ is an optimal controller. The integral gain $k_1$ related to weighting matrices q and R will be an optimal value for assigning the filter time constant of loop filter. The experimental results in controlling the second-order lag pressure process using two types of loop filters show that the system response is fast without steady-state error, the output disturbance effect rejection is fast and the tracking to step changes is good.

We propose an architecture that reduces the power consumption and active area of such a modulator through a reduction in the number of active components and a simplification of the topology. The proposed architecture reduces the power consumption and active area by reducing the number of active components and simplifying the modulator topology. A novel second-order loop filter that uses a single operational amplifier resonator reduces the number of active elements and enhances the controllability of the transfer function. A trapezoidal-shape half-delayed return-to-zero feedback DAC eliminates the loop-delay compensation circuitry and improves pulse-delay sensitivity. These simple features of the modulator allow higher frequency operation and more design flexibility. Implemented in a 130 nm CMOS technology, the prototype modulator occupies an active area of $0.098mm^2$ and consumes 5.23 mW power from a 1.2 V supply. It achieves a dynamic range of 62 dB and a peak SNDR of 60.95 dB over a 15 MHz signal bandwidth with a sampling frequency of 780 MHz. The figure-of-merit of the modulator is 191 fJ/conversion-step.

This paper is on the user equipment (UE) side time tracker design and implementation of the wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) system. The time tracker is constructed as a second order closed loop including time error detector (TED), loop filter (LP), numerically controlled oscillator (NCO), and sample selector (SS). Through the simulation, we found the gain of the TED as a function of the CPICH power contribution to the total transmission power of the base station. Also we derived the transfer function of the loop and the BER versus DPCH power relationships where timing offsets and loop noise bandwidths are used as parameters. In the curve, we can conclude that there are appropriate loop noise bandwidths according to the given environments for the better performance.
