With the growing need for increased capacity, speed and capabilities, the complexity of Integrated Circuit (IC) designs continue to increase. With the increased level of complexity and market pressures to deliver better results faster and cheaper, IC companies are forced to innovate and introduce efficiencies into their development process. To improve IC design productivity and time-to-market, this paper introduces an innovative Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tool that will allow the replication of an existing layout in different technology nodes by automatically porting analog and mixed-signal circuits. Furthermore, to better manage the complexity of IC development projects, the paper suggests the use of iterative and incremental approach of agile methods by presenting a case study on an EDA tool development project.

This work presents a novel radar system for vehicle imaging. The proposed system is based on estimation of target parameters like range and velocity and generation of the final radar image. For this purpose, a multistatic Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) system is implemented. Both the simulation and on site measurements show that such a radar system has the potential to replace the current very expensive sensors.

Mobile Sensor Nodes (MSNs) have been recently proposed to leverage the performance of conventional static Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). In this paper, we propose to energize both the sink and Cluster Head nodes with mobility, such that wireless communication path loss is minimized thus preserving the sensor nodes energy and extending the network lifetime. The performance evaluation of the proposed scheme shows a superior performance over other related work in terms of extending the network lifetime, and preserving the nodes energy.

With the rapid increase of mobile devices handover management in Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) is a concern for user mobility. Traditional handover management methods used for user mobility management are decentralized and do not cater to the delay encountered by the number of Ethernet switches between the Access Points (APs) in the WLAN networks. Software Defined Networking (SDN) technology could fulfill the need of effective centralized handover management and load balancing requirements in the WLAN networks. In this paper, we have analyzed the need for SDN to restructure the current WLAN network architecture. Firstly, we analyzed the existing model and proposed an SDN based model for handover management with improved performance; capable of having multiple switches between the APs during user mobility management. Secondly, we have made an experimental testbed in which multiple switches are placed between the APs connecting the mobile stations. Furthermore, these mobile stations are performing handover during their mobility between the coverage area of the APs on traditional and SDN based WLAN networks. Lastly, the results show the analysis of data rate and delay measured on traditional and SDN based WLAN networks.

Identity-bearing digital money (e.g. BitMint) can be paid in a private transaction between payor and payee without reliance on network authentication. The payee must trust that the paid digital coin is bona fide. Presenting a hard wallet (HW) to generate the required trust. Payment issued from the HW can be taken in by a second hard wallet, which will further pay to a third hard wallet, creating a payment ecology of digital money for long periods without the benefit of a communication network. Payment may be tethered to eventual terms of redemption. The hard wallet may be personalized -- fitted with ownership security capability. The HW may be engineered in conjunction with a smart phone, so people can use a single device as a phone and as an off-line wallet.

This paper presents a new design for a Circularly Polarized Square Slot Antenna (CPSSA). The proposed antenna is single layered with L-shaped stubs loaded on both the opposite corners of the antenna, which is capable of generating orthogonal modes for the excitation of Circular Polarization. Two asymmetric strips on the top and the left portions of the proposed antenna and various other asymmetric strips are also loaded. The proposed structure is having the dimensions of 40 x 40 x 1.6 mm3.The designed CPSSA operates in the range of 3.2-12.5 GHz with Axial Ratio (AR) bandwidth in the range of 4.5-8.5 GHz. In this paper the improvement of the performance parameters like AR and Return Loss (S11) on the addition of asymmetric stubs is explained in detail.

As we move towards lower nodes, device dimensions are changing and becoming more complex. With FinFet’s elevated channel, gate voltage is applied from all 3 directions. The gate electric field is no longer unidirectional. These add complexity in the behavior of current through the channel. Traditional Shockley model which had square law dependency on the over drive voltage in saturation region will no longer hold good. To overcome this shortcoming of the model alpha power model was introduced by Sakurai- Newton [1]. This accurately modeled the transistor behavior in submicron device in saturation region. According to this model the device will not have square dependency in saturation region. But will have power reduced from two to one as node shrinks. As we were scaling the nodes, there wasn’t any significant scaling in the voltage. As the velocity saturation becomes more dominant alpha reaches one. Models designed for the planar devices and are not in sync with the FinFet. Proposed paper describes the behavior of the MOS in 7nm across different voltage condition and comparison of the current behavior predicted from the Shockley’s square law model and Sakurai-Newton’s alpha power model in FinFets.
随着我们向低节点移动，设备尺寸也在发生变化，变得越来越复杂。使用FinFet的高架通道，栅极电压从所有3个方向施加。栅极电场不再是单向的。这些增加了通过通道的电流行为的复杂性。传统的肖克利模型在饱和区依赖于过驱动电压的平方律将不再适用。为了克服模型的这一缺点，Sakurai- Newton b[1]引入了alpha幂模型。该方法准确地模拟了饱和区亚微米器件中晶体管的行为。根据该模型，器件在饱和区域不存在平方依赖。但是随着节点的缩小，功率将从2减少到1。当我们扩展节点时，电压没有明显的变化。随着速度饱和度的增加，alpha趋于1。为平面器件设计的模型与FinFet不同步。本文描述了7nm MOS在不同电压条件下的行为，并比较了finfet中肖克利平方定律模型和Sakurai-Newton α功率模型预测的电流行为。

This paper aims to assess the enhancements of the electric vehicle (EV) energy storage systems by hybridizing Lithium ion (Li-ion) battery with a supercapacitor, based on their operation efficiency and the aging of the overall storage system. The hybrid energy storage system brings desired improvements due to the high power density and small internal resistance of supercapacitors. However, the energy density of a supercapacitor is lower than that of a typical EV battery, making the combination of the two storage systems a promising breakthrough to increase both EV mileage and battery lifetime. Accordingly, MATLAB/Simulink tools are used in this work to set-up simulation scenarios to investigate the operation of the proposed hybrid storage system.

Quantum dot Cellular Automata (QCA) poses novel computing paradigm to design Nano electronic circuits with favorable proximity intended towards high speed, energy efficient and compact devices. Hence this emerges as a viable beyond CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) Technology. Many literatures are based on 3 input-1 output majority gate logic, which primarily focuses to reduce the number of cells in single individual logic gates utilized. In this work we are extending our proposed multi-logic gates with different configurations to produce multiple logic functions with the same inputs of individual logic gates and also performing energy dissipation analysis. These gates are very useful since this enables the design of efficient smaller circuits. Proposed multi-logic design consumes less area than that of individual gates. The design is simulated in QCA Designer 2.0 and found in accordance with the logic. An analysis to explore the power dissipated by multi-logic gates is carried out by QCA Designer-E. The area and power efficiency of these multi-logic gates are compared with the previous best designed individual gates. Superior results are obtained and reported here.
