A ideia inicial para esta investigação era estudar o efeito da prática de orquestra na motivação intrínseca dos alunos, nomeadamente as repercussões no estudo individual do instrumento. Foram realizados dois estudos no contexto da investigação: um primeiro estudo de natureza exploratória, no qual foram entrevistados 15 professores e 15 alunos; um segundo estudo, de natureza descritiva e explanatória, no qual se administraram 274 questionários a alunos de 9 classes de orquestra em 4 escolas do ensino especializado da música, assistiu-se a um ensaio de cada uma das orquestras e realizou-se uma entrevista informal ao professor de cada classe de orquestra. Os resultados obtidos indicam que a prática orquestral pode produzir efeitos na motivação dos alunos, com implicações claras no estudo do instrumento. Também foi possível concluir que a participação dos alunos em orquestra poderá ser um fator capaz de motivar os alunos, e capaz de transformar para melhor a perspetiva dos alunos em relação à aprendizagem musical. Este facto sugere que a prática de orquestra deve ser entendida como um pilar fundamental da dinâmica das escolas do ensino especializado da música, e como uma disciplina nuclear do curriculum deste ensino.

In this work physical and behavioral models for a bulk Reflective Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (RSOA) modulator in Radio over Fiber (RoF) links are proposed. The transmission performance of the RSOA modulator is predicted under broadband signal drive. At first, the simplified physical model for the RSOA modulator in RoF links is proposed, which is based on the rate equation and traveling-wave equations with several assumptions. The model is implemented with the Symbolically Defined Devices (SDD) in Advanced Design System (ADS) and validated with experimental results. Detailed analysis regarding optical gain, harmonic and intermodulation distortions, and transmission performance is performed. The distribution of the carrier and Amplified Spontaneous Emission (ASE) is also demonstrated. Behavioral modeling of the RSOA modulator is to enable us to investigate the nonlinear distortion of the RSOA modulator from another perspective in system level. The Amplitude-to-Amplitude Conversion (AM-AM) and Amplitude-to-Phase Conversion (AM-PM) distortions of the RSOA modulator are demonstrated based on an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and a generalized polynomial model. Another behavioral model based on Xparameters was obtained from the physical model. Compensation of the nonlinearity of the RSOA modulator is carried out based on a memory polynomial model. The nonlinear distortion of the RSOA modulator is reduced successfully. The improvement of the 3rd order intermodulation distortion is up to 17 dB. The Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) is improved from 6.1% to 2.0%. In the last part of this work, the performance of Fibre Optic Networks for Distributed and Extendible Heterogeneous Radio Architectures and Service Provisioning (FUTON) systems, which is the four-channel virtual Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO), is predicted by using the developed physical model. Based on Subcarrier Multiplexing (SCM) techniques, four-channel signals with 100 MHz bandwidth per channel are generated and used to drive the RSOA modulator. The transmission performance of the RSOA modulator under the broadband multi channels is depicted with the figure of merit, EVM under di erent adrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) level of 64 and 254 for various number of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) subcarriers of 64, 512, 1024 and 2048.
