The RF power amplifier is one of the most critical blocks of transceivers, as it is expected to provide a suitable output power with high gain, efficiency and linearity. In this paper, a 60-GHz power amplifier based on an injection locked structure is demonstrated in a standard 65 CMOS technology. The PA core consists of a cross-coupled pair of NMOS transistors with an NMOS current source. This st
Background:The research of social science tends in many cases lean towards an approach that focus on negatively influencing factors, rather than health promoting factors from a salutogenic perspective. In the field of criminology, this approach commonly investigates reasons behind criminal behavior instead of studying the salutogenic factors, i.e. reasons why people do not engage in a criminal lif
Med en befolkning på cirka 30 miljoner människor är kurderna den fjärde största etniska gruppen i Mellanöstern. Trots detta har kurderna inte sin egen självständiga stat vilket gör dem till en minoritetsgrupp i Turkiet, Irak, Iran och Syrien. Eftersom kurderna är utspridda över fyra olika stater är det av intresse att undersöka hur de hänvisar till varandra i förhållande till idén om att ha en suvWith a population of around 30 million people, the Kurds are the fourth largest ethnic group in the Middle East. Despite this, the Kurds do not have their own independent state which makes them a minority group in Turkey, Iraq, Iran and Syria. Since the Kurds are scattered over four different states it is of interest to examine how they refer to each other in relation to the idea of having an inde
The purpose of this thesis is to identify barriers to innovation faced by firms delivering healthcare services and to analyse their effects on healthcare service firms' innovation process. This thesis therefore aims to close a gap in literature. Insights gained can help policy-makers understand how their actions impede innovation in the healthcare industry and how they can remove or reduce spe
The demand from the aircraft industry of light and stiff structures along with fast manufacturing processes has increased through the last decade. This master thesis is carried out at Saab Aeronautics with purpose of developing a new concept for the horizontal stabilizer to the turboprop aircraft SAAB 2000. To specify the project, only the torsion box, including spars, ribs and skins are considere
The evolution of World Wide Web (WWW) into semantic web is happening with the aid of standards like Resource Description Framework (RDF), SPARQL and a few others from World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). Over the years, semantic data management technologies have been introduced as software platforms commonly known as RDF stores. Lately these RDF stores have been tested for processing and maintenance o
Accelerator programs that support enterprises in their early stages are growing in numbers, acknowledged by many as an important organizational form for achieving economic growth. However, focusing solely on economic growth has proven to be detrimental for the environment and not enough to solve the challenges of our current social systems. As a response, accelerators and social enterprises that f
As passive investing has grown in popularity, the number of available passive investment strategies have risen as well. This paper strives to investigate one of these investment strategies, namely fundamental indexation. More specifically, the aim of this study is to investigate if fundamental indices are more mean-variance efficient compared to capitalization-weighted indices. Given that the supe
Background: Under a background of increasingly competitive environment in global sourcing e-tailing industry, companies have an urgent need to improve the performance and obtain more profits.
