Analysis and Design of an Adaptive Polynomial Predistorter with the Loop Delay Estimator

Most adaptive linearization circuits for the nonlinear amplifier have a feedback loop that returns the output signal oj'tne eunplifier to the lineurizer. The loop delay of the linearizer most be controlled precisely so that the convergence of the linearizer should be assured lot this Letter a delay control circuit is presented. It is a delay lock loop (ULL) with it modified early-lute gate and can he easily applied to a DSP implementation. The proposed DLL circuit is applied to an adaptive linearizer with the use of a polynomial predistorter, and the simulalion for a 16-QAM signal is performed. The simulation results show that the proposed DLL eliminates the delay between the reference input signal and the delayed feedback signal of the linearizing circuit perfectly, so that the predistorter polynomial coefficients converge into the optimum value and a high degree of linearization is achieved

Spin and density longitudinal response of quantum dots in the time-dependent local-spin-density approximation

The longitudinal dipole response of a quantum dot has been calculated in the far-infrared regime using local-spin-density-functional theory. We have studied the coupling between the collective spin and density modes as a function of the magnetic field. We have found that the spin dipole mode and single-particle excitations have a sizable overlap, and that the magnetoplasmon modes can be excited by the dipole spin operator if the dot is spin polarized. The frequency of the dipole spin edge mode presents an oscillation which is clearly filling factor (v) related. We have found that the spin dipole mode is especially soft for even-n values. Results for selected numbers of electrons and confining potentials are discussed.

ARMA modeling of time series based on rational approximation of spectral density function

This study is concerned with Autoregressive Moving Average (ARMA) models of time series. ARMA models form a subclass of the class of general linear models which represents stationary time series, a phenomenon encountered most often in practice by engineers, scientists and economists. It is always desirable to employ models which use parameters parsimoniously. Parsimony will be achieved by ARMA models because it has only finite number of parameters. Even though the discussion is primarily concerned with stationary time series, later we will take up the case of homogeneous non stationary time series which can be transformed to stationary time series. Time series models, obtained with the help of the present and past data is used for forecasting future values. Physical science as well as social science take benefits of forecasting models. The role of forecasting cuts across all fields of management-—finance, marketing, production, business economics, as also in signal process, communication engineering, chemical processes, electronics etc. This high applicability of time series is the motivation to this study.

Spin polarized neutron matter and magnetic susceptibility within the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approximation

The Brueckner-Hartree-Fock formalism is applied to study spin polarized neutron matter properties. Results of the total energy per particle as a function of the spin polarization and density are presented for two modern realistic nucleon-nucleon interactions, Nijmegen II and Reid93. We find that the dependence of the energy on the spin polarization is practically parabolic in the full range of polarizations. The magnetic susceptibility of the system is computed. Our results show no indication of a ferromagnetic transition which becomes even more difficult as the density increases.

Quasilocal density functional theory and its application within the extended Thomas-Fermi approximation

In this paper we propose a generalization of the density functional theory. The theory leads to single-particle equations of motion with a quasilocal mean-field operator, which contains a quasiparticle position-dependent effective mass and a spin-orbit potential. The energy density functional is constructed using the extended Thomas-Fermi approximation and the ground-state properties of doubly magic nuclei are considered within the framework of this approach. Calculations were performed using the finite-range Gogny D1S forces and the results are compared with the exact Hartree-Fock calculations

A generic polynomial solution for the differential equation of hypergeometric type and six sequences of orthogonal polynomials related to it

In this work, we present a generic formula for the polynomial solution families of the well-known differential equation of hypergeometric type s(x)y"n(x) + t(x)y'n(x) - lnyn(x) = 0 and show that all the three classical orthogonal polynomial families as well as three finite orthogonal polynomial families, extracted from this equation, can be identified as special cases of this derived polynomial sequence. Some general properties of this sequence are also given.

An approximation method using approximate approximations

The aim of this paper is to extend the method of approximate approximations to boundary value problems. This method was introduced by V. Maz'ya in 1991 and has been used until now for the approximation of smooth functions defined on the whole space and for the approximation of volume potentials. In the present paper we develop an approximation procedure for the solution of the interior Dirichlet problem for the Laplace equation in two dimensions using approximate approximations. The procedure is based on potential theoretical considerations in connection with a boundary integral equations method and consists of three approximation steps as follows. In a first step the unknown source density in the potential representation of the solution is replaced by approximate approximations. In a second step the decay behavior of the generating functions is used to gain a suitable approximation for the potential kernel, and in a third step Nyström's method leads to a linear algebraic system for the approximate source density. For every step a convergence analysis is established and corresponding error estimates are given.

Ground state correlation energy of the Be-sequence for Z = 4-20 in MCDF approximation

The ground state (J = 0) electronic correlation energy of the 4-electron Be-sequence is calculated in the Multi-Configuration Dirac-Fock approximation for Z = 4-20. The 4 electrons were distributed over the configurations arising from the 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p and 3d orbitals. Theoretical values obtained here are in good agreement with experimental correlation energies.

Zur Approximation der Gleichungen von Navier-Stokes

In der vorliegenden Arbeit betrachten wir die Strömung einer zähen, inkompressiblen, instationären Flüssigkeit in einem dreidimensionalen beschränkten Gebiet, deren Verhalten wird mit den instationären Gleichungen von Navier-Stokes beschrieben. Diese Gleichungen gelten für viele wichtige Strömungsprobleme, beispielsweise für Luftströmungen weit unterhalb der Schallgeschwindigkeit, für Wasserströmungen, sowie für flüssige Metalle. Im zweidimensionalen Fall konnten für die Navier-Stokes-Gleichungen bereits weitreichende Existenz-, Eindeutigkeits- und Regularitätsaussagen bewiesen werden. Im allgemeinen dreidimensionalen Fall, falls also die Daten keinen Kleinheitsannahmen unterliegen, hat man bisher lediglich Existenz und Eindeutigkeit zeitlich lokaler starker Lösungen nachgewiesen. Außerdem existieren zeitlich global so genannte schwache Lösungen, deren Regularität für den Nachweis der Eindeutigkeit im dreidimensionalen Fall allerdings nicht ausreicht. Somit bleibt die Lücke zwischen der zeitlich lokalen, eindeutigen starken Lösung und den zeitlich globalen, nicht eindeutigen schwachen Lösungen der Navier-Stokes-Gleichungen im dreidimensionalen Fall weiterhin offen. Das renommierte Clay Mathematics Institute hat dieses Problem zu einem von sieben Millenniumsproblemen erklärt und für seine Lösung eine Million US-Dollar ausgelobt. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird ein neues Approximationsverfahren für die Navier-Stokes-Gleichungen entwickelt, das auf einer Kopplung der Eulerschen und Lagrangeschen Beschreibung zäher Strömungen beruht.
