TL;DR: In this article, a compact one-dimensional phase shifter is proposed using alternating sections of negative refractive index (NRI) metamaterials and printed transmission lines (TL).
Abstract: A compact one-dimensional phase shifter is proposed using alternating sections of negative refractive index (NRI) metamaterials and printed transmission lines (TL). The NRI metamaterial sections consist of lumped element capacitors and inductors, arranged in a dual TL (high-pass) configuration. By adjusting the NRI-medium lumped element values, the phase shift can be tailored to a given specification. Periodic analysis is applied to the structure and design equations are presented for the determination of the lumped element parameters for any arbitrary phase shift. To validate the design, various phase shifters are simulated and tested in coplanar waveguide (CPW) technology. It is demonstrated that small variations in the NRI-medium lumped element values can produce positive, negative or 0/spl deg/ phase shifts while maintaining the same short overall length. Thus, the new phase shifter offers some significant advantages over conventional delay lines: it is more compact in size, it exhibits a linear phase response around the design frequency, it can incur a phase lead or lag which is independent of the length of the structure and it exhibits shorter group delays.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a point image method to solve for wall reflections and a Nyquist plot was used to determine whether a given room impulse response was minimum phase when the initial delay was removed.
Abstract: When a conversation takes place inside a room, the acoustic speech signal is distorted by wall reflections. The room’s effect on this signal can be characterized by a room impulse response. If the impulse response happens to be minimum phase, it can easily be inverted. Synthetic room impulse responses were generated using a point image method to solve for wall reflections. A Nyquist plot was used to determine whether a given impulse response was minimum phase. Certain synthetic room impulse responses were found to be minimum phase when the initial delay was removed. A minimum phase inverse filter was successfully used to remove the effect of a room impulse response on a speech signal.

TL;DR: Linear phase filtering is proposed for the removal of baseline wander and power-line frequency components in electrocardiograms with a considerably reduced number of impulse response coefficients.
Abstract: Linear phase filtering is proposed for the removal of baseline wander and power-line frequency components in electrocardiograms. In order to reduce the large number of computations involved in the digital filtering that are necessary, the desired filter spectrum was defined periodically. Making use of the property that the spectrum period is 50 Hz, the spectrum can be realized with a considerably reduced number of impulse response coefficients. This, in combination with the necessary impulse response symmetry, leads to a reduction in the number of multiplications per output sample by a factor of 10. A suitable impulse response is designed with a pass-band ripple of less than 0.5 dB and a high stop-band attenuation. The applicability is demonstrated by applying the filtering to exercise electrocardiograms.

TL;DR: In this article, a new method of designing linear-phase FIR filters is proposed by minimizing a quadratic measure of the error in the passband and stopband, based on the computation of an eigenvector of an appropriate real, symmetric, and positive-definite matrix.
Abstract: A new method of designing linear-phase FIR filters is proposed by minimizing a quadratic measure of the error in the passband and stopband. The method is based on the computation of an eigenvector of an appropriate real, symmetric, and positive-definite matrix. The proposed design procedure is general enough to incorporate both time- and frequency-domain constraints. For example, Nyquist filters can be easily designed using this approach. The design time for the new method is comparable to that of Remez exchange techniques. The passband and stopband errors in the frequency domain can be made equiripple by an iterative process, which involves feeding back the approximation error at each iteration. Several numerical design examples and comparisons to existing methods are presented, which demonstrate the usefulness of the present approach.

TL;DR: In this article, a 10-Gb/s phase-locked clock and data recovery circuit with a half-rate phase detector was proposed. But the phase detector provided a linear characteristic while retiming and demultiplexing the data with no systematic phase offset, and the power dissipation was 72 mW from a 2.5V supply.
Abstract: A 10-Gb/s phase-locked clock and data recovery circuit incorporates an interpolating voltage-controlled oscillator and a half-rate phase detector. The phase detector provides a linear characteristic while retiming and demultiplexing the data with no systematic phase offset. Fabricated in a 0.18-/spl mu/m CMOS technology in an area of 1.1/spl times/0.9 mm/sup 2/, the circuit exhibits an RMS jitter of 1 ps, a peak-to-peak jitter of 14.5 ps in the recovered clock, and a bit-error rate of 1.28/spl times/10/sup -6/, with random data input of length 2/sup 23/-1. The power dissipation is 72 mW from a 2.5-V supply.
