This paper presents a QVCO and divider for a 28 GHz SiGe PLL. It was designed in a SiGe process with fT= 200 GHz. The PLL is intended to be used for beam steering in an 81-86 GHz E-band transmitter. Phase control is implemented by programmable current injection into the loop filter. The simulations in Spectre use a layout extracted view with parasitics for the QVCO and the frequency divider and an

I argue that Lisa Shapiro’s rational reconstruction of Descartes’s provisional moral code in terms of a broad conception of morality supplies us with an interpretative framework that make historiographical sense of the reception of Descartes’s moral philosophy in an Anglophone context on three occasions: the appeal to Descartes made by Henry More, Henry Sidgwick’s abrupt dismissal, and the ensuing

F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby and Don Delillo’s White Noise both portray the modern world even though they were written over 60 years apart. Despite the fact that these worlds represent very different states of modernity, they are defined by two central traits: technology and consumerism, which influence the characters of both novels in several comparable ways. The concept of packaging is

Ett alternativ till att investera i ett traditionellt inhouse-system är att hyra en tjänst eller ett system av en tredje part. Detta fenomen kallas för Software as a Service (SaaS). SaaS kan enligt litteraturen bidra med fördelar för företag i form av kostnadsbesparingar och korta implementeringstider. Men det finns också kritiker till SaaS som menar att det kan medföra säkerhetsbrister och minska

Competition policy is important for the promotion of fair competition, preventing abuse of market power and protecting consumer and business interests. It is thus an area that builds and moulds itself according to the fabric or structure of society and eventually evolves by habitually adjusting to the dynamics of government economies. Despite the different economic dynamics between the European Un

This comparative study, which includes narrative, rhetoric, and reception analyses of two films depicting the current war in Ukraine—Bucha and 20 Days in Mariupol—explores the differences in how these films are received by various parties involved in the conflict, specifically Ukraine and russia, as well as by other countries affected by the war. The paper also features a chapter on the russian pr

Soil temperature fluctuations are typical at high latitudes in early spring or late autumn. Freeze-thaw cycles (FTCs) occur when the soil temperature fluctuates around 0°C, causing a change in the state of the soil solution. Due to climate change, FTCs are predicted to become more frequent and intense, especially in the Arctic, Antarctic, and cold temperate regions. In this study, two experiments

This thesis focuses upon generating a Sámi assessment of the EU’s addressal of the rights and needs of indigenous peoples in the EU’s extensive development of space infrastructures in the Arctic. The central puzzle derives from the EU’s oft-presented claim that indigenous peoples will be engaged with, included in, and will benefit from said space development activities; previous literature explori

The successive waves of violence since May 2012, have put Myanmar in the international spotlight. The crisis in the Rakhine state has quickly become a global concern broadly discussed in the media. This paper examines how the Rohingya crisis is framed in Burmese and Western news media agencies by comparing the media coverage by The Global New Light of Myanmar and The New York Times between 2017-08

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur brottsoffer, förövare och vittnen framställs i svenska true crime-poddar av aktörerna public service, kvällstidning och en självständig aktör. Vidare diskuteras hur press- och medieetik utmanas av poddar om true crime. I ett allt mer digitaliserat samhälle kan vem som helst publicera material om verkliga brott på olika plattformar. Dagligen produceras

We now have entered the Anthropocene. Humanity is the new geological force drastically changing the systems of the Earth. At least this is the story told by natural scientists. Social scientists are critical of this ‘natural’ narrative as it cannot deal with the social dimension of geological changes. This is problematic with regard to understanding the relation between social justice and ecologic

Over the past two decades, immigrant-receiving countries have been confronted with honour crimes. In a number of Western European countries, there have been cases of police failure to intervene in cases of honour crimes occurring in migrant communities. The authorities responses to honour crimes have consistently been inadequate, as they do not take victims of honour crimes seriously and fail to p

Objectives: To compare the predictive performance and potential clinical usefulness of risk calculators of the European Randomized Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer (ERSPC RC) with and without information on prostate volume. Methods: We studied 6 cohorts (5 European and 1 US) with a total of 15,300 men, all biopsied and with pre-biopsy TRUS measurements of prostate volume. Volume was categori

On 12 July 2021 the World Health Organization (WHO) Expert Advisory Committee on Developing Global Standards for Governance and Oversight of Human Genome Editing published a set of reports entitled Human Genome Editing: A Framework for Governance and Recommendations. These reports provide valuable advice and recommendations on appropriate institutional, national and global governance mechanisms fo
