This letter presents an experimental comparison between two linear-cavity erbiumdoped fiber lasers (EDFL) assisted by two different artificial backscatter fiber-based reflectors. Both reflectors were inscribed by femtosecond ...

The advent of context-aware environments and related applications demands a high degree of connectivity, with new spectral bands and related radio resource management functionalities in the current 5G bands and foreseen ...

The design of a micropower class AB operational transconductance amplifier with large dynamic current to quiescent current ratio is addressed. It is based on a compact and power-efficient adaptive biasing circuit and a ...

A CMOS fully integrated all-pass filter with an extremely low pole frequency of 2 Hz is introduced in this paper. It has 0.08-dB passband ripple and 0.029-mm2 Si area. It has 0.38-mW power consumption in strong inversion ...

The unpredictable nature of renewable energies is drawing attention to lithium-ion batteries. In order to make full utilization of these batteries, some research works are focused on the management of existing systems, ...

Discontinuous space vector pulsewidth modulation (DSVPWM) techniques are an interesting option for three-phase, two-level power converters when efficiency is a key factor. Such is the case of back-to-back (B2B) power ...

In this paper, three compact antennas using the Ridge Gap Waveguide (RGW) technology working in the millimeter-wave band (60 GHz), with a high-purity and broadband circular polarization (CP) are numerically and experimentally ...

We demonstrate a technique to compensate the nonlocal effects that appear in Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensors when pump pulses with limited extinction ratio are deployed. These recently discovered nonlocal ...

Lossy mode resonance based sensors have been extensively studied in recent years. The versatility of the lossy mode resonance phenomenon has led to the development of sensors based on different configurations that make use ...
