The third order intermodulation distortion (IMD3) mechanisms of HBT's are analyzed using Volterra Series theory. A T-equivalent circuit is used for the large-signal model of the HBT. The third order nonlinear currents generated by the device nonlinearities are evaluated for this purpose and current cancellation is discussed. It is found that, even though the C(je) and g(je) related currents do not show pronounced cancellation, the total base-emitter current and the total base-collector current cancel partially. Second harmonic loading is addressed in view of IMD3 optimization while, at the same time, maintaining high gain through conjugate matching at the fundamental frequency. IMD3 is very sensitive to the nonlinear currents generated by g(je) and alpha. Optimum IMD3 occurs at high second harmonic reflection coefficients corresponding to open load conditions. Finally, minimum and maximum IMD3 occurs for second harmonic load reflection coefficient phases close to analogous extremes of the dominant nonlinear current of the device.

This paper develops the theoretical basis for time-scale modification of speech based on short-time Fourier analysis. The goal is the development of a high-quality system for changing the apparent rate of articulation of recorded speech, while at the same time preserving such qualities as naturalness, intelligibility, and speaker-dependent features. The results of the theoretical study were used as the framework for the design of a high-quality speech rate-change system that was simulated on a general-purpose minicomputer.

We consider a problem originating in radar polarimetry for which the radar target is to be characterized by the properties of its coherent polarization state, given complete coherent backscattering matrix data sets at one frequency and for one target aspect angle. First, the Jones vector formalism for the coherent monostatic case and Sinclair's backscattering matrix [S(AB)] for the general polarization basis (AB) are introduced. Using the unitary change of polarization state transformation, we present the concept of the characteristic polarization states of a scatterer, which was introduced by Kennaugh and Huynen. The generalized unitary transformation matrix formulation under the change-of-basis transformation, expressed in terms of the generalized polarization ratio rho(AB), is developed for emphasizing the unique properties of the interrelation among the existing characteristic polarization states. For the monostatic reciprocal case (S(AB) = S(BA)) treated here, it is shown that there exist in total five pairs of characteristic polarization states: the orthogonal cross-polarization null and the copolarization maximum-state pairs, which are identical and share one main circle with the copolarization null and the orthogonal cross-polarization maximum-state pairs, the latter being at right angles to the cross-polarization null pairs;and a newly identified pair, the orthogonal cross-polarization saddle-point extrema that are normal to the plane (main circle) spanned by the other four pairs. With this complete and unique mathematical description of Huynen's polarization fork concept, it is possible to study the problem of polarimetric radar target optimization more rigorously. Various examples are provided and interpreted by comparing the unique result with the results of previous incomplete analyses. In conclusion, the relevance of these canonical results to optical polarimetry are highlighted and interpreted.
