    EUGEN SIMION: EXEGI MONUMENTUM

    No full text
    This text is a reminder that October marks one year since the passing of Professor Academician Eugen Simion, a prominent figure in Romanian culture. The article pays tribute to the efforts and achievements of Eugen Simion’s work and legacy, exemplified by the verses of the Latin poet Horace, “exegi monumentum aere perennius”. It highlights the significant contributions of this exceptional personality of Romanian culture and literature, emphasising Eugen Simion’s reputation as one of the most esteemed literary critics and historians, essayists and theorists in the field of literature. He is considered the (theoretical) founder of biographical genres (journals, correspondence, memoirs). His activity as an editor, preface writer, author of monographs and promoter of national-scale projects yielded important results, including Dicționarul General al Literaturii Române ‘The General Dictionary of Romanian Literature’ (DGLR, two editions), Cronologia vieții literare românești 1944 – 2012 ‘The Chronology of Romanian Literary Life 1944 – 2012’ (CVLR, 60 volumes) and the facsimile reproduction of Eminescu’s manuscripts (notebooks) (38 volumes). A university professor and member of the Romanian Academy and president of this high forum between 1997 and 2006, Eugen Simion also became a member of seven other academies in the United Kingdom, Denmark, France, Greece, Moldova, Spain and Serbia. Some of his books and studies were translated in Belgium, Switzerland, France, Germany, the United States, Serbia and Hungary. The unexpected loss of Professor Eugen Simion left a vast literary project unfinished, deprived now of the infectious energy and enthusiasm of its initiator. These projects are currently being continued and completed by researchers at the “G. Calinescu” Institute of Literary History and Theory of the Romanian Academy, where Eugen Simion served as director

    Distributed amplifier based broadband and low spurious frequency doubler

    No full text
    A circuit topology for a frequency doubler consisting of a distributed amplifier work- ing under nonlinear regime is analyzed analytically and characterized experimentally. Fully- distributed circuit topologies for the phase shifter used to realize the gate and drain artificial transmission lines of the distributed amplifier are proposed. For these types of phase shifters, it is shown that efficient rejection of the output odd harmonics is possible, but also low ripple of the output power level on the output second harmonic is obtained. The proposed frequency doubler has been designed for central input frequency equal to 5 GHz, and the designed cir- cuit has been fabricated, too. The experimental conversion loss for the fabricated frequency doubler is less than 4 dB and 7 dB, when the power level to the input is imposed to –1 dBm and 5 dBm, respectively, while the input frequency is between 4 and 6 GHz

    CRLH unit cells - The key for new design methods of distributed active and passive microwave devices and circuits

    No full text
    Recent applications of CRLH unit cells used to design distributed passive and active microwave devices and circuits are presented. In particular, new configurations for small-size passive devices based on quarter-wavelength transmission line sections, as well as microwave amplifiers, oscillators and frequency doublers are analyzed. The performances of these new circuit topologies are put into evidence numerically and the results are validated by experiments

    High power efficiency distributed oscillator based on composite-right-/left-handed unit cells

    A microwave oscillator topology based on CRLH (Composite Right-/Left-Handed) unit cells is analyzed theoretically and experimentally tested. The oscillator consists of a CRLH based distributed amplifier and a positive feedback realized by a simple transmission line. The oscillator has two output ports, where the power levels are practically the same. For this topology, we have found the oscillation condition and we demonstrate that each transistor gives the same contribution to the power delivered at the two output ports, in this way, the output power is maximized. The oscillator has been designed for a frequency of oscillation of 2.8 GHz and fabricated in hybrid technology, by using InGaAs HEMTs and microstrip lines. The measured powers at the two output ports are equal to 12.6 dBm and 10.4 dBm, the small difference between these values being given by the insertion loss of the gate line. The experimental frequency of oscillation is 2.77 GHz, with a difference of less than 1% in comparison with the expected value. Due to the frequency selectivity of the CRLH unit cells, numerical simulations predict low phase noise for this configuration of oscillator.

    A topology for a 3-dB broadband and small-size ring coupler is designed and numerically analyzed. It consists of fully-distributed Composite Right-/Left-Handed phase shifters and a Lange coupler. The frequency bandwidth is one octave centered on 1.5GHz. The area occupied by the coupler is 25% of the conventional ring coupler topology. The coupler has been fabricated and it is ready for the experimental characterization

    An oscillator based on distributed amplifier realized by using CRLH (Composite Right-/Left-Handed) unit cells is designed and experimentally validated. The positive feedback consists of a transmission line which connects the input port and drain idle port of the amplifier. The remaining two ports of the distributed amplifier are the oscillator output ports. For this oscillator topology, the transistors give the same contribution to the output power. The measured powers at the two output ports are equal to 12.6 dBm and 10.4 dBm. The experimental frequency of oscillation is 2.77 GHz, the difference compared to the simulated value being less than 1%

    A new distributed frequency multiplier topology is proposed. The phase matching condition accordingly to the order of frequency multiplication is derived. Based on this topology, a frequency doubler for 8–12 GHz output frequencies is designed and analyzed numerically. Due to the circuit topology, the fundamental and third harmonics at the output may be suppressed completely
