This book was released on 2003 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We propose novel architectures and techniques for the stabilization of continuous-time delta-sigma modulators, the on-line restoration of corrupted oversampled data, and the implementation of high speed delta-sigma modulators in complementary metal-oxide semiconductor integrated circuit technology. Specifically, the contributions of this work are threefold: (1) A novel architecture for the stabilization of continuous-time delta-sigma modulators of arbitrary order is proposed. The approach features a guarantee of stability under certain assumptions and accommodates quantizers incorporating any number of levels and dithering. An estimation method to predict long-term SNR performance of the stabilized delta-sigma modulator is provided. We show that first-order noise-shaping can be achieved. (2) New measures for the management of instability in delta-sigma modulation are proposed. Digital state estimation techniques based on observer theory adapted to delta-sigma modulation are developed and simulated. Restorative algorithms suitable for multiplier-free digital implementation are also provided and simulated. Significant SNR recoveries are shown to be possible. (3) A compensated fifth-order single-bit continuous-time delta-sigma modulator integrated circuit for analog-to-digital conversion is designed, laid-out, fabricated (in a 0.35-micron CMOS technology) and tested. The basic operation of our soft-resetting technique is demonstrated in steady-state. Nominal performance of 56-dB SNDR and 51-dB DR in a signal bandwidth from 100--500 kHz is achieved. The presence of a non-ideal do offset is discussed and a possible remedy is proposed. The main purpose of the IC is for demonstrating that advanced switching control techniques can be implemented in a practical fashion. The chip does not represent a contribution to the state-of-the-art in nominal SNDR and DR modulator performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural Writing. Edited by Graziella Parati and Ben Lawton. ITALIAN CULTURAL STUDIES includes selected essays written by participants of the Italian Cultural Studies Symposium at Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH on October 29-31, 1999. These essays examine the notion of cultural studies-both Italian and others. What is cultural studies? Why should we study it? How should we teach it? What is its relation to traditional language studies? Contributors include Norma Bouchard, Joseph A. Buttigieg, Sandra Carletti, Roberto Maria Dainotto, Nathalie Hester, Sarah Patricia Hill, Irene Kacandes, Giancarlo Lombardi, Daniela Orlandi, Marie Orton, Nicoletta Pireddu, Adrian W.B. Randolph, Maria Galli Stampino, and Rebecca West. Perfectbound.

Download or read book Theories of Income Distribution written by Athanasios Asimakopulos and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together the work of scholars who have written for it independent essays in their areas of particular expertise in the general field of income distribution. The first eight chapters provide a review of the major theories of income distribution, while the final two are con cerned with problems of empirical estimates and inferences. One of these chapters presents estimates of factor shares in national income in the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada, while the other ex amines how relationships between the size distribution of income and economic development are being investigated. A convenient way of conveying an understanding of how economic theorists have dealt with the distribution of income is to examine separ ately each major approach to this subject. Each contributor was thus assigned a particular approach, or a major theorist. No attempt was made to avoid the apparent duplication that occurs when the same references are examined by different contributors. The reader gains by seeing how the same material can be treated by those looking at it from different perspectives. A chapter each has been devoted to Marx and Marshall.
Download or read book Antifascisms written by David Ward and published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an in-depth analysis of three of the most crucial years in twentieth-century Italian history, the years 1943-46. After more than two decades of a Fascist regime and a disastrous war experience during which Italy changed sides, these years saw the laying of the political and cultural foundations for what has since become known as Italy's First Republic. Drawing on texts from the literature, film, journalism, and political debate of the period, Antifascisms offers a thorough survey of the personalities and positions that informed the decisions taken in this crucial phase of modern Italian history.
