Modeling and simulation of nonlinear systems provide communication system designers
with a tool to predict and verify overall system performance under nonlinearity and
complex communication signals. Traditionally, RF system designers use deterministic
signals (discrete tones), which can be implement ...
his research aims at creating broadband tunable, fully integrated filters for the application of
cognitive radio and signal classification receivers. The approach under study is the N-path filter
technique which is capable of translating a baseband impedance to a reference frequency creating
a tunab ...
All wireless communication standards, existing and under development, adopt or
consider adopting orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) as the
modulation technique. It is clear that OFDM has become the definitive modulation
scheme in current and future wireless communication systems.
Many good textbooks exist on probability and random processes written at the under-
graduate level to the research level. However, there is no one handy and ready book
that explains most of the essential topics, such as random variables and most of their
frequently used discrete and continuous proba ...
The following sections profile many of the vendors in the NFV market. The individual profiles were created
through a collaborative effort between SDNCentral’s Research Team and the Vendor’s product experts.
SDNCentral worked under the assumption the information provided by the vendors was factual, ...

The explosion in demand for wireless services experienced over the past 20 years
has put significant pressure on system designers to increase the capacity of the
systems being deployed. While the spectral resource is very scarce and practically
exhausted, the biggest possibilities are predicted to b ...
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) phenomena have been known to mankind since Thales of
Miletus in approximately 600 B.C.E. noticed the attraction of strands of hay to amber.
Two thousand six hundred years have passed and the quest to obtain a better under-
standing of electrostatics and ESD phenomenon c ...
The goal of this book is to introduce the simulation methods necessary to describe
the behaviour of semiconductor devices during an electrostatic discharge (ESD).
The challenge of this task is the correct description of semiconductor devices under
very high current density and high temperature trans ...
