We have used three-dimensional simulation to investigate application of a new body contact to SOI devices. Performance characteristics of the new body contact on high-voltage SOI devices were studied. Our comparative investigation showed increased current drive, improved cutoff frequency, reduced on-resistance while attaining satisfactory breakdown voltage. The new body contact is applicable to both high […]
The contour integral (CI) method is developed to analyze H-plane waveguide circuits filled with inhomogeneous dielectric such as circuits including full height dielectric posts. In order to reduce the computational costs, the multimode CI method, which considers the effect of higher order TEn0 modes, is introduced and we present a hybrid method based on multimode […]
This paper opens with introducing the structure of the network control systems and then the impact of the network on the system equations is simultaneously modeled and the factors affecting the network control systems, due to the existence of the network in the system, are examined. Next, a instantaneous approximation based on Kalman filter design […]
It has been shown recently that in many industrial factories, for example rolling and looming, single controller and drive must control a number of multi-phase machines simultaneously. The major difficulty in utilizing this approach is using common single controller for two motors. The most recent solution for this problem is to serialize the stator windings […]
