This logic uses the macroscopic effects which can be found in nano-structured superconductor devices such as the Josephson AC and DC effects, and the magnetic flux quantization. As the typical time of the Josephson junction quantized phase leap 2π is in the order of picoseconds, the RSFQ circuits can operate with clock frequencies in the order of hundreds of GHz. This invited paper focuses on basic principles of superconducting RSFQ logic as well as on typical applications, such as the signal conversion or petaflops computing systems. In addition we point out the benefits of the semi-metallic NbN-TaxN-NbN Josephson junction technology, which has been developed at CEA-INAC in Grenoble.","PeriodicalId":267447,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 21st International Conference Radioelektronika 2011","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130407238","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}

The work improves the Wendroff-based techniques, with MTL's boundary conditions treated via generalized Thévenin equivalents, and thus enabling to consider simple terminating circuits only. The utilization of the MNA approach ensures a high universality and covers arbitrarily complex systems on principle. The solution of resultant MNA differential algebraic equations (DAEs) is based on the backward Euler technique. All the computer experiments have been performed in the Matlab language environment.","PeriodicalId":267447,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 21st International Conference Radioelektronika 2011","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131367631","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}

However, the impulsive interference can still significantly affect performance of OFDM systems including terrestrial digital video broadcasting (DVB-T). In this paper we present initial laboratory measurements focused on the evaluation of DVB-T receivers' impulse interference immunity. First, the impulsive interference model is adopted and the set-up for impulse immunity measurement is introduced. Then several different measurements and results are presented. Two basic scenarios are selected for the measurements. In first one we assume impulsive interference with short impulsive noise pulse duration, where only one DVB-T symbol in burst sequence is corrupted. In second scenario the impulsive noise with impulses longer than DVB-T symbol is applied.","PeriodicalId":267447,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 21st International Conference Radioelektronika 2011","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123748686","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}

This paper describes procedure for depth map creating using rectified stereo images and segmentation algorithm belief propagation (BP). Very necessary steps to creating depth map are camera calibration and image rectification of the image pairs. Calibration of the stereoscopic cameras consists from a two parameters of a stereo system: intrinsic parameters, which characterize the transformation mapping an image point from camera to pixel coordinates in each camera and extrinsic parameters, which describe the relative position and orientation of the two cameras. The depth recovery is important problem of image analysis in the study of compute vision and is optimized by using the belief propagation techniques.","PeriodicalId":267447,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 21st International Conference Radioelektronika 2011","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122359571","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}

The proposed circuit employs a single MCBTA and four passive components including two grounded capacitors. The circuit provides completely de-coupled condition of oscillation (CO) of the frequency of oscillation (FO), i.e. no term in the CO is present in the FO and vice versa. Both the CO and FO are independently tunable by two different grounded resistors. The FO is also tunable by means of the transconductance and thereby is electronically tunable. SPICE simulation results have confirmed the workability of the proposed circuit.","PeriodicalId":267447,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 21st International Conference Radioelektronika 2011","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124051898","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}

This paper introduces typical challenges and approaches for QoE testing of HD IPTV services. We provide an overview of influence factors, with a special focus on content types and characteristics, and we provide decision criteria for selecting subjective testing methods for IPTV research studies.
