Unfortunately the power amplifier (PA) linearisation methods in common usage today to meet the linearity specification of standards such as GSM EDGE, TETRA and UMTS result in low DC to RF efficiency. This paper discusses the relationship between linearity and transmitter efficiency and reviews various linearisation schemes: Cartesian loop, polar loop, 2nd harmonic injection, envelope elimination and restoration (EER), predistortion methods, and synthesis techniques (e.g. LINC and CALLUM). The paper also shows that to increase the power efficiency (and thus talk-time) hybrid solutions to power amplifier linearisation are required and these are also discussed.","PeriodicalId":127784,"journal":{"name":"Electronics & Communication Engineering Journal","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125669020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At UHF and microwave frequencies, bodyworn antennas can suffer from reduced efficiency due to electromagnetic absorption in tissue, radiation pattern fragmentation and variations in feed-point impedance. The significance and nature of these effects are system specific and depend on the operating frequency, propagation environment and physical constraints on the antenna itself. This paper describes how numerical electromagnetic modelling techniques such as FDTD (finite-difference time-domain) can be used in the design of bodyworn antennas. Examples are presented for 418 MHz, 916/spl middot/5 MHz and 2/spl middot/45 GHz, in the context of both biomedical signalling and wireless personal-area networking applications such as the Bluetooth/sup TM/ wireless technology.","PeriodicalId":127784,"journal":{"name":"Electronics & Communication Engineering Journal","volume":"106 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122442256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is strongly associated in the minds of many with the overhyped network computer that failed to capture a significant market share from PCs. However, network computing and network computers are not synonymous. In fact, one of the major benefits of network computing is the ability to tailor applications to the capabilities of heterogeneous client devices. Given the very fast growing mobile computing market, with its numerous and diverse terminal types, network computing could at last realise its full potential. This tutorial paper provides an overview of computing from the early mainframes to today's multiplicity of computing devices. The advantages of network computing are discussed and an overview is provided of some of the underpinning technologies. To provide an insight into the potential of network computing, two applications are described. Some overall conclusions are also given.","PeriodicalId":127784,"journal":{"name":"Electronics & Communication Engineering Journal","volume":"87 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127995235","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Whilst this is an impressive achievement, the current analogue TV network can cover 99.7% of the UK population and digital satellite systems can boast virtually 100% coverage, so DTT still has some way to go. DTT coverage must improve in order to make analogue switch-off a politically acceptable reality and to compete directly with satellite in value-added services, such as shopping or banking. Analogue switch-off is a particularly desirable goal, as it would release a significant amount of valuable spectrum for use by other commercial services (e.g. mobile telephony). This paper addresses the use of transposers, in a manner similar to that of the current analogue TV network, in order to extend coverage cost-effectively to those viewers currently unable to receive all of the digital multiplexes. A number of transposer designs are considered, employing both DSP and high-temperature superconducting (HTS) techniques, and results presented on some of the technologies employed.","PeriodicalId":127784,"journal":{"name":"Electronics & Communication Engineering Journal","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127141596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, new tools will be required for the measurement of fundamental quantities such as the microwave frequency response, bandwidth, gain and return loss of microwave photonic components. However, existing lightwave measurement techniques are primitive when compared with conventional RF and microwave network analysis. This paper provides a review of the theory and techniques used for the small-signal characterisation of microwave photonic components. State-of-the-art architectures for lightwave network analysers and the corresponding two-port calibration techniques are described.","PeriodicalId":127784,"journal":{"name":"Electronics & Communication Engineering Journal","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129861439","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
