Prasad and P. Satyanarayana (1986), which avoids the redundant operations in the inverse transform. An improved intermediate sequence is introduced to preserve the Hermitian symmetry when interpolating a real-valued signal. The resulting algorithm is significantly more efficient than the 2-D FFT method of J.W. Adams (1987). It is also more convenient, since it permits the use of the IFFT with a size that is the same as that of the original FFT.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":6453,"journal":{"name":"[1991] Proceedings of the 34th Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems","volume":"8 2 1","pages":"700-703 vol.2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77327598","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}

By forcing a constant voltage swing on the feedback switches, channel charge injection dependence on effective threshold voltage levels leads to uncompensated offset errors.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":6453,"journal":{"name":"[1991] Proceedings of the 34th Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems","volume":"30 1","pages":"719-722 vol.2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83120341","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 low-order model is partitioned into (decoupled) subsystems by projecting the directions of strong influence in individual input(s) and output(s) on the state space of the reduced model. Quadratic weights are determined for the individual decoupled subsystems. These weights are used in the quadratic performance index for the reduced model. The quadratic weights for the original large-order model can easily be determined from the reduced performance index. The reduced performance index is sufficient to determine a robust low-order optimal controller for the large-order system. A ninth-order model of a chemical reactor having four inputs and three outputs is considered as an example.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":6453,"journal":{"name":"[1991] Proceedings of the 34th Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems","volume":"96 1","pages":"478-481 vol.1"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85230023","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 design approach is experimentally confirmed by the measurement of a test circuit with discrete elements. The features of this design approach are as follows: the SCF structure is the same as that based on the LDI transformation, the SCF structure requires no sample and hold circuits at the front and back, and the aperture effect is approximately compensated. Consequently, the total circuit that includes the SCF, the prefilter, and the postfilter can become simple and small. This design approach is effective in the case of using the SCF with the prefilter and the postfilter on the same IC chip.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":6453,"journal":{"name":"[1991] Proceedings of the 34th Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems","volume":"1 1","pages":"572-575 vol.2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90998223","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}
