Selected AbstractsA new tracking controller for discrete-time SISO non minimum phase systems,ASIAN JOURNAL OF CONTROL, Issue 1 2010Mohsen Ruzbehani Abstract A new tracking controller for discrete-time Single Input Single Output (SISO) non-minimum phase (NMP) systems is presented. In the proposed method, after cancelation of poles and cancelable zeros of the system, the controller adds some NMP zeros to compensate the effect of NMP zero (zeros) of the system. As a result, the phase of the overall transfer function will be almost linear and its magnitude approaches unity for all frequencies. The method can be applied even to the systems with complex conjugate NMP zeros. As well, it is applicable to the systems for which the conventional methods cannot properly be used. Furthermore, a generalization of method to continuous-time systems is another given result. Several examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the method.

This relationship is a global convolution integral in the time domain. Rational approximation to its frequency response function (frequency-domain convolution kernel) in the frequency domain, which is then realized into the time domain as a lumped-parameter model or recursive formula, is an effective method to obtain the temporally local representation of unbounded soil. Stability and identification for the rational approximation are studied in this paper. A necessary and sufficient stability condition is presented based on the stability theory of linear system. A parameter identification method is further developed by directly solving a nonlinear least-squares fitting problem using the hybrid genetic-simplex optimization algorithm, in which the proposed stability condition as constraint is enforced by the penalty function method. The stability is thus guaranteed a priori. The infrequent and undesirable resonance phenomenon in stable system is also discussed. The proposed stability condition and identification method are verified by several dynamic soil,structure-interaction examples. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [source] Gaussian inputs: performance limits over non-coherent SISO and MIMO channelsEUROPEAN TRANSACTIONS ON TELECOMMUNICATIONS, Issue 3 2007Rasika R. Perera Performance limits of information transfer over a discrete time memoryless Rayleigh fading channel with neither the receiver nor the transmitter knowing the fading coefficients except its statistics is an important problem in information theory. We derive closed form expressions for the mutual information of single input single output (SISO) and multiple input multiple output (MIMO) Rayleigh fading channels for any antenna number at any signal to noise ratio (SNR). Using these expressions, we show that the maximum mutual information of non-coherent Rayleigh fading MIMO channels is achieved with a single transmitter and multiple receivers when the input distribution is Gaussian. We show that the addition of transmit antennas for a fixed number of receivers result in a reduction of mutual information. Furthermore, we argue that the mutual information is bounded by the SNR in both SISO and MIMO systems showing the sub-optimality of Gaussian signalling in non-coherent Rayleigh fading channels.

Dalal This paper obtains comparative static results for a firm that sells a single output domestically and abroad when prices in both markets are uncertain. Results are obtained for both constant absolute risk aversion and for Ross decreasing absolute risk aversion, using a diagrammatic analysis which exploits the properties of expected marginal utility contours. The results depend crucially on whether foreign and domestic sales are net substitutes or complements. The model is more complex and yields fewer unambiguous results , particularly in the case of substitutes , than when there is price uncertainty in only one market. [source] | ||||||||||
