Basic Continuous Time Signals01:22

Basic Continuous Time Signals

262
Basic continuous-time signals include the unit step function, unit impulse function, and unit ramp function, collectively referred to as singularity functions. Singularity functions are characterized by discontinuities or discontinuous derivatives.
The unit step function, denoted u(t), is zero for negative time values and one for positive time values, exhibiting a discontinuity at t=0. This function often represents abrupt changes, such as the step voltage introduced when turning a car's...

Frequency-Domain Interpretation of PD Control

159
Proportional-Derivative (PD) controllers are widely used in fan control systems to improve stability and performance. A fan control system can be effectively represented using a Bode plot to illustrate the impact of a PD controller through its transfer function. The Bode plot visually conveys how PD control modifies the fan's response across various frequencies, providing a frequency domain interpretation of the controller's behavior.
The proportional control gain, combined with the...

Receiver Operating Characteristic Plot

294
A ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) plot is a graphical tool used to assess the performance of a binary classification model by illustrating the trade-off between sensitivity (true positive rate) and specificity (false positive rate). By plotting sensitivity against 1 - specificity across various threshold settings, the ROC curve shows how well the model distinguishes between classes, with a curve closer to the top-left corner indicating a more accurate model. The area under the ROC curve...

Time-Domain Interpretation of PD Control

158
Proportional-Derivative (PD) control is a widely used control method in various engineering systems to enhance stability and performance. In a system with only proportional control, common issues include high maximum overshoot and oscillation, observed in both the error signal and its rate of change. This behavior can be divided into three distinct phases: initial overshoot, subsequent undershoot, and gradual stabilization.
Consider the example of control of motor torque. Initially, a positive...

BIBO stability of continuous and discrete -time systems01:24

BIBO stability of continuous and discrete -time systems

473
System stability is a fundamental concept in signal processing, often assessed using convolution. For a system to be considered bounded-input bounded-output (BIBO) stable, any bounded input signal must produce a bounded output signal. A bounded input signal is one where the modulus does not exceed a certain constant at any point in time.
To determine the BIBO stability, the convolution integral is utilized when a bounded continuous-time input is applied to a Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) system....

Sampling Continuous Time Signal01:11

Sampling Continuous Time Signal

309
In signal processing, a continuous-time signal can be sampled using an impulse-train sampling technique, followed by the zero-order hold method. Impulse-train sampling involves the use of a periodic impulse train, which consists of a series of delta functions spaced at regular intervals determined by the sampling period. When a continuous-time signal is multiplied by this impulse train, it generates impulses with amplitudes corresponding to the signal's values at the sampling points.
In the...

    Background:

    • Continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) offers secure communication.
    • Multi-carrier CV-QKD schemes promise higher secret key rates (SKR) than single-carrier systems.
    • Imperfect quantum state preparation in multi-carrier systems introduces excess noise, limiting performance.

    • Development of a modulation noise model for multi-carrier CV-QKD based on OFDM.
    • Integration of the noise model with single-carrier CV-QKD security analysis methods.
    • Simulation of multi-carrier CV-QKD performance under practical system parameters and various modulation protocols (e.g., QPSK, 256QAM, Gaussian).

    Main Results:

    • The proposed model accurately evaluates multi-carrier CV-QKD performance with arbitrary modulation protocols.
    • Simulation results demonstrate significant SKR improvement with increased carrier numbers (N), even with practical modulation imperfections.
    • Optimal SKR can be achieved by carefully selecting the number of carriers (N).
