Stability under Large-Signal Conditions PresentationNMDG NV
This presentation demonstrates calibrated small-signal S-parameters extraction under large-signal conditions, performed in parallel with the calibrated large-signal measurements provided by the ZVxPlus nonlinear extension kits.
The extracted S-parameters allow calculating the different stability criteria as well as the stability circles over the full frequency bandwidth of the selected network analyser.
Using contactless probing techniques, this feature allows you to perform calibrated in-circuit voltage and current time-domain measurements under large-signal conditions, on printed-circuit boards (PCB) or on wafer, at locations which are normally unreachable using standard VNA techniques.
Using one or more high-impedance voltage probes (HIP), this feature allows you to perform calibrated in-circuit voltage time-domain measurements under large-signal conditions, on printed-circuit boards (PCB) or on wafer, at locations which are normally unreachable using standard VNA techniques.
This presentation demonstrates that the S-functions models can be visualized and used directly in MATLAB R2012A (and LabVIEW 2011) thanks to the support of the .NET framework in both environments.
Furthermore, the response of the component, represented by such a model, is fully accessible from within MATLAB (and LabVIEW) for a given set of large-signal operating points and small-signal excitation tones.
Taking advantage of the new extended multi-port measurement ICE feature, NMDG developed a patent-pending technique to accurately model the behaviour of mixers with access to the local oscillator (LO).
NMDG developed different examples illustrating that it is possible to interact with NMDG ICE software from within LabVIEW 2011 or MATLAB R2012A, thanks to the ICE Remoting library and the .NET Remoting technology.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Why are my s parameters so noisy?

my S-parameters
so noisy?
This slide set illustrates that nonlinear behaviour shows up as
“deterministic noise” in S-parameters measurements.

A first S-parameter measurement is performed on a biased FET, from
500MHz to 18 GHz with 100MHz of frequency spacing, applying
-20dBm at source output.
This slide shows the measured S21 parameter in dB as function of
frequency.
The gain of the transistor decreases smoothly from 11.5 dB to 6dB.

2 measurements plot on top of
each other with Source @ 0 dBm

A second S-parameter measurement is performed on the same device,
using the same frequency grid, but applying 0dBm at the source
output. The device is in compression for this input level.
This slide shows a comparison of the resulting S21 parameter as
function of frequency for the two measurement.
One can observe a noisier S21 parameter for the second
measurement.
Moreover, a third S-parameter measurement is performed with 0dBm
at Source output. The resulting third S21 parameter is exactly the
same as in case of the second measurement.
Nonlinear behaviour shows up as “deterministic noise” in S-parameter
measurements.
