Nondestructive testing has become an essential tool for failure prevention, conditionbased maintenance, structural health monitoring, as well as for quality control during production processes. Ultrasound and Acousto-Optics are applied to examine the mechanical properties of isotropic and anisotropic materials, and also to detect material defects. Fiber reinforced composites are ubiquitous in many industries, yet the interaction of ultrasound with such materials is particularly challenging because of effects such as surface roughness, the fact ....etc

Abstract.
This paper is the first of two presenting the Digital Amplitude Modulator and the Digital Linear Amplifier. One leads to the other with the Digital Amplitude Modulator the precursor and the first theorized. Linear amplitude modulation in very high power full carrier systems still requires rather large solid state or vacuum tube devices in Medium Wave (MW) and Short Wave (SW), telephone and VHF and UHF ....etc

ABSTRACT
Wide band Sigma-Delta PLL modulator is based on PLL fractional N synthesis techniques along with Sigma-Delta modulation to randomize fractional N spurs. A modified Sigma-Delta function allows for suppression of Sigma-Delta noise at low frequencies & hence allows wider bandwidth. This is achieved using a fractional-N PLL architecture. They are capable of synthesizing frequencies at channel spacings less than the reference frequency. This helps to increase the reference frequency & hence reduces PL ....etc

Wideband Sigma Delta PLL Modulator

The proliferation of wireless products over past few years has been rapidly increasing. New wireless standards such as GPRS and HSCSD have brought new challenges to wireless transceiver design. One pivotal component of transceiver is frequency synthesizer.

Two major requirements in mobile applications are efficient utilization of frequency spectrum by narrowing the channel spacing and fast switching for high data rates. This can be achieved by using fractional- ....etc

INTRODUCTION
Wireless communications are an essential and continuously expanding part of modern life. Smart phones presents a number of challenging requirements on the display module, such as low power consumption, video quality speed, and viewability in a broad range of lighting conditions.

The Interferometric Modulator (IMOD) is an electrically switched light modulator comprising a micro-machined cavity that is switched on and off using driver ICs similar to those used to ad ....etc
