A theoretical and experimental investigation into narrow-bandwidth microwave rejection filters, which can be constructed from simple, standard microwave components, is described. Suppression factors of at least 50dB at resonance are possible, and the bandwidth can be easily controlled. A simple form of analysis, which indicates clearly the effects of variation in the parameters, gives good agreeme... View full abstract»

The noise performance of transistor mixers at high frequencies is investigated by first considering the signal processes in the mixer. A knowledge of the mixer signal performance, and consideration of the various noise sources in the transistor, allows calculation of expressions for the mixer noise figure and optimum source resistance. The effects of variation in operating conditions are discussed... View full abstract»

Shockleys's theory of the junction field-effect transistor with step-junction transitions is reviewed and improved. Estimates of the effect of channel-length modulation on the output conductance and drain-to-gate capacitance are obtained.

Publication Year: 1968, Page(s):503 - 506
Cited by:  Papers (1)
| | PDF (468 KB)

A propagation mechanism is discussed which comprises two reflections from a horizontally-stratified, partially-reflecting layer. Such a layer located appreciably below the crossover heightÂ¿ (i.e. the height of intersection of the horizon rays from the terminals) may cause an enhancement of signal strength which exceeds that obtained with a single reflection from a similar layer at the crossover ...

• ### Power-control characteristics of an asynchronised synchronous machine: a computer study

Publication Year: 1968, Page(s):507 - 510
| | PDF (504 KB)

An asynchronised synchronous machine is a combination of a doubly excited synchronous machine and an automatic control system, and it overcomes some of the basic disadvantages inherent in a synchronous machine. The paper describes some analogue-computer studies in which the steady-state and transient characteristics of an asynchronised synchronous machine are examined from the point of view of pow...

The application of the o-d-q transformation (due to Park) to the induction-machine equations is used to develop a set of equations suitable for use with a digital computer in the analysis of dynamic performance. The method of calculation is designed to be compatible with those already in use for the analysis of synchronous-machine behaviour and makes use of a novel equivalent circuit. An account i...

Cited by:  Papers (13)
| | PDF (1072 KB)

In order to study the influence of terminal capacitors on the transient behaviour of an induction machine, differential equations are developed in which the nonlinear effect of magnetic saturation is taken into account. Theoretical results obtained from a digital-computer solution of these equations are compared with experimental measurements on a 7.5hp motor. The transients investigated are those...

The general phenomenon of voltage collapse or instability at the load end of transmission links is introduced with reference to previous work, and the induction motor is seen to be the critical constituent of system loads. The power/voltage and reactive-power/voltage characteristics of power-system loads are predicted and accurately represented by polynomial expressions which are used in the analy...

Partitioning techniques for the nodal-impedance methods of the power-system network load-flow solution are derived and classified. The techniques include normal matrix inversion using partitioning and successive inverse modification, the topological or diakoptic and the algebraic partitioning principles. The paper shows how, without reference to network graph theory, these principles follow from s... View full abstract»

• ### Protection and stabilisation of large superconducting coils

Publication Year: 1968, Page(s):543 - 547
Cited by:  Papers (11)
| | PDF (702 KB)

Large superconducting coils, with stored energies from 108J upwards, must be stable and have a predictable performance. This is achieved by combining the superconductor with a good ordinary conductor (substrate) to form a composite and by providing cooling throughout the winding. In addition, large superconducting coils must be protected against overheating and voltage breakdown which might be cau... View full abstract»

The paper describes an electromagnetic suspension in which use is made of LCRcircuits to modify the force/distance characteristics between magnetised bodies. The modified characteristic is statically stable, and, although the use of series capacitance introduces Qfactor lag and oscillations, it is found by experiment that these can be damped out, giving a considerable advantage in power/weight rat...

A theoretical 2-dimensional analysis is made of the end region of a single-load crossconnected m.h.d. generator in which the duct cross-section, fluid properties and magnetic field are uniform, infinitely fine segmentation of the crossconnected electrode system is assumed. With a single load connected between solid electrodes at each end of the generator, the analysis predicts infinitely high curr... View full abstract»

Publication Year: 1968, Page(s):562 - 571
| | PDF (1228 KB)

A simple continuous process is controlled by a digital computer. The process is initially identified and thereafter represented on a digital computer by means of a dynamic model. The optimum response of the model is obtained by adjusting the parameters of the digital controller to minimise a chosen cost function. Once the optimum controller has been determined by methods involving conjugate gradie... View full abstract»

Publication Year: 1968, Page(s):572 - 576

The paper considers linear distributed-parameter systems described by the diffusion equation. A functional-analysis approach is used to develop a technique for obtaining explicit solutions to the class of optimum-control problems that are reducible to the abstract minimum-norm problem. To illustrate the technique, two specific problems are solved. In both cases, the initial state of the system is ... View full abstract»

The circle criteria¿¿ for giving stability information of linear systems containing one time-varying element are shown to have useful graphical interpretations for design purposes on a parameter-plane diagram. The significance of the parameter-plane approach is that, in a system design, the adjustable parameters of either the time-varying element or the time-invariant subsystem may be selected to...

The property of separability of a process with respect to n random processes is defined and examples of such a process are given. The equivalent gains of a multidimensional nonlinearity (m.d.n.l.), obtained by Kazakov, are shown to constitute the best linear model of the m.d.n.l. in the Wiener sense if, and only if, each of the inputs is separable with respect to all the inputs.

In the paper an algorithm is described for solving the problem of secure economic load scheduling on a large power system. The method is an extension of that of Wells, which solves the problem as a linear program by means of the dual simplex algorithm. A dual form of the decomposition principle of Dantzig and Wolfe is used in order to reduce the size of the problem, so that it can be solved effici... View full abstract»
