    Approximate Best Linear Unbiased Channel Estimation for Multi-Antenna Frequency Selective Channels With Applications To Digital Tv Systems
    (SPIE, 2004) Özen, Serdar; Pladdy, Christopher; Nerayanuru, Sreenivasa M.; Fimoff, Mark J.; Zoltowski, Michael D.
    We provide an iterative and a non-iterative channel impulse response (CIR) estimation algorithm for communication receivers with multiple-antenna. Our algorithm is best suited for communication systems which utilize a periodically transmitted training sequence within a continuous stream of information symbols, and the receivers for this particular system are expected work in a severe frequency selective multipath environment with long delay spreads relative to the length of the training sequence. The iterative procedure calculates the (semi-blind) Best Linear Unbiased Estimate (BLUE) of the CIR. The non-iterative version is an approximation to the BLUE CIR estimate, denoted by a-BLUE, achieving almost similar performance, with much lower complexity. Indeed we show that, with reasonable assumptions, a-BLUE channel estimate can be obtained by using a stored copy of a pre-computed matrix in the receiver which enables the use of the initial CIR estimate by the subsequent equalizer tap weight calculator. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the performance of the novel algorithms for 8-VSB ATSC Digital TV system. We also provide a simulation study of the robustness of the a-BLUE algorithm to timing and carrier phase offsets.

    Design of a Haptic Device for Teleoperation and Virtual Reality Systems
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2009) Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Selvi, Özgün; Bilgincan, Tunç; Kant, Yalkın
    Haptics technology has increased the precision and telepresence of the teleoperation and precision of the in-house robotic applications by force and surface information feedback. Force feedback is achieved through sending back the pressure and force information via a haptic device as the information is created or measured at the point of interest. In order to configure such a system, design, analysis and production processes of a haptic device, which is suitable for that specific application, becomes important. Today, haptic devices find use in assistive surgical robotics and most of the teleoperation systems. These devices are also extensively utilized in simulators to train medical and military personnel. The objective of this work is to design a haptic device with a new structure that has the potential to increase the precision of the robotic operation. Thus, literature is reviewed and possible robot manipulator designs are investigated to increase the precision in haptics applications. As a result of the investigations, conceptual designs are developed. Ultimately, final design is selected and produced after it is investigated in computer-aided- design (CAD) environment and its kinematic and structural analyses are carried out.

    Instability Phenomena in Microcrystalline Silicon Films
    (National Institute of Optoelectronics, 2005) Finger, Friedhelm; Carius, Reinhard; Dylla, Thorsten; Klein, Stefan; Okur, Salih; Güneş, Mehmet
    Microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H) for solar cell applications is investigated with respect to the material stability upon treatment of the material in various environments, followed by annealing. The material can be separated into two groups: (i) material with high crystalline volume fractions and pronounced porosity which is susceptible to in-diffusion of atmospheric gases, which, through adsorption or oxidation affect the electronic properties and (ii) compact material with high or low crystalline volume fractions which show considerably less or no influence of treatment in atmospheric gases. We report the investigation of such effects on the stability of μc-Si:H films prepared by plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition and hot wire chemical vapour deposition.

    Properties of Reactive O2 Ion Beam Sputtered Tio2 on Si Wafers
    (National Institute of Optoelectronics, 2005) Ulucan, Savaş; Özyüzer, Gülnur Aygün; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Eğilmez, Mehmet; Turan, Raşit
    TiO2 thin films were deposited on silicon (100) p-type wafers, using the reactive ion beam sputtering method in high vacuum as an alternative to conventional Argon ion beam sputtering in an O2 environment. Oxygen ions with 1000 eV energy were formed in a thruster and bombarded a high purity Ti target. The molecules of TiO2 were deposited on a Si (100) wafer at various substrate temperatures. The structural and optical properties were analyzed using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy in the range of 400-4000 cm-1. An ellipsometer was used to measure the thickness and refractive index of the deposited films. In order to determine the dielectric constant and capacitance of the deposited TiO2, the electrical properties were studied using an MOS capacitor. The effects of substrate temperature and deposition time on the dielectric properties of TiO2 are discussed.
