TL;DR: A pulse-shaping technique that allows for spectrally resolved splitting of an input signal to multiple output ports, giving similar flexibility to a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) in electronics.
Abstract: We demonstrate a pulse-shaping technique that allows for spectrally resolved splitting of an input signal to multiple output ports. This ability enables reconfigurable creation of splitters with complex wavelength-dependent splitting ratios, giving similar flexibility to a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) in electronics. Our technique can be used to create reprogrammable optical (interferometric) circuits, by emulating their multi-port spectral transfer functions instead of the traditional method of creating an interferometer by splitting and recombining the light with an added delay. We demonstrate the capabilities of this technique by creating a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, an all-optical discrete Fourier transform filter, two nested Mach-Zehnder interferometers and a complex splitter with a triangular-shaped response.

21 Jun 1989TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied feedback control of linear time-invariant singularly perturbed systems of the form? = A 11 x + A 12 z + B 1 u + B 2 u y = C 1 x + C 2 z + Eu where Eu may be singular.
Abstract: This paper studies feedback control of linear time-invariant singularly perturbed systems of the form ? = A 11 x + A 12 z + B 1 u ? = A 21 x + A 22 z + B 2 u y = C 1 x + C 2 z + Eu. where A 22 may be singular. It is shown that, under stabilizability-detectability assumptions on the slow and fast models, the theory of feedback control of singularly perturbed systems can be extended to the case of singular A 22 . Both state and output feedback results are given.

TL;DR: The authors propose a generalization of the well known Wiener-Hopf design method of optimal controllers and filters, applicable to a certain class of systems described by fractional order differential equations, the so called rational order systems that, in the Laplace domain, are described by transfer functions which are quotients of polynomials in salpha.
Abstract: In this note, the authors propose a generalization of the well known Wiener-Hopf design method of optimal controllers and filters, applicable to a certain class of systems described by fractional order differential equations, the so called rational order systems that, in the Laplace domain, are described by transfer functions which are quotients of polynomials in salpha, alpha = (1 /q), q being a positive integer As can be verified in the literature, such transfer functions arise in the characterization of some industrial processes and physical systems which can be adequately modeled using fractional calculus, or when modeling some distributed parameter systems by finite dimensional models A brief exposition of the standard Wiener-Hopf method, and some fundamental considerations about rational order systems are given before presenting the proposed procedure Illustrative examples are discussed

TL;DR: In this article, an adaptive subcarrier loading function for a mobile receiver in a wireless communication system based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is provided to predict the channel transfer function of a multipath propagation channel being severely impaired by frequency-selective fading and an extremely time-variant behavior by detecting the position and/or movement of zero points of the transfer function.
Abstract: Wireless communication systems are provided with an adaptive subcarrier loading function for a mobile receiver in a wireless communication system based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) that can advantageously be applied to predict the channel transfer function of a multipath propagation channel being severely impaired by frequency-selective fading and an extremely time-variant behavior by detecting the position and/or movement of zero points of the transfer function, thereby reducing the probability of incorrect assignment of the modulation scheme for each subcarrier caused by mobile terminals moving at high velocity The zero points of the estimated channel transfer function are determined by detecting the position of deep notches on the associated amplitude response of the measured channel transfer function caused by frequency-selective fading whose depths are larger than a predefined threshold
