The challenges associated with the design and implementation of Electro-
static Discharge (ESD) protection circuits become increasingly complex as
technology is scaled well into nano-metric regime. One must understand the
behavior of semiconductor devices under very high current densities, high
temp ...
This paper reviews key factors to practical ESD
protection design for RF and analog/mixed-signal (AMS) ICs,
including general challenges emerging, ESD-RFIC interactions,
RF ESD design optimization and prediction, RF ESD design
characterization, ESD-RFIC co-design technique, etc. Practical
design exa ...
Resource allocation is an important issue in wireless communication networks. In
recent decades, cognitive radio technology and cognitive radio-based networks have
obtained more and more attention and have been well studied to improve spectrum
utilization and to overcomethe problem of spectrum scarc ...
Battery systems for energy storage are among the most relevant technologies of the
21 st century. They – in particular modern lithium-ion batteries (LIB) – are enablers
for the market success of electric vehicles (EV) as well as for stationary energy
storage solutions for balancing fluctuations in ...
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the technology behind the pico-solar revolution
and offers guidance on how to test and choose quality products. The book also discusses how
pioneering companies and initiatives are overcoming challenges to reach scale in the market-
place, from innovati ...
n present power system, the engineers face variety of challenges in
planning, construction and operation. In some of the problems, the engineers need
to use managerial talents. In system design or upgrading the entire system into
automatic control instead of slow response of human operator, the engi ...

With global drivers such as better energy
consumption, energy efficiency and reduction of
greenhouse gases, CO 2 emission reduction has become
key in every layer of the value chain. Power Electronics
has definitely a role to play in these thrilling challeng ...
RFID is at a critical price point that could enable its large-scale adoption.
What strengths are pushing it forward? What technical challenges and
privacy concerns must we still address?
The past decade has seen an explosion of machine learning research and appli-
cations; especially, deep learning methods have enabled key advances in many
applicationdomains,suchas computervision,speechprocessing,andgameplaying.
However, the performance of many machine learning methods is very sensi ...
