Single event transient mitigation techniques for a cross‐coupled LC oscillator, including a single‐event transient hardened CMOS LC‐VCO circuit by Arumugam Karthigeyan, Sankararajan Radha, Esakkimuthu Manikandan

“…A circuit asymmetry technique is used for faster recovery of the oscillator in the event of a single event transient (SET) caused by an ion hit. Also, a new SET tolerant inductor capacitor‐voltage controlled oscillator (LC‐VCO) topology is proposed for a radiation environment that shows reduced phase displacement, amplitude displacement, and recovery time. …”

Target Q-Coverage Problem with Bounded Service Delay in Directional Sensor Networks by Deying Li, Hui Liu, Xianling Lu, Wenping Chen, Hongwei Du

“…We propose a protocol to find a collection of coverage sets that satisfy the coverage quality requirement and the bounded service delay constraint, where the target in each coverage set may not be served continuously but can be served with tolerant service delay. By steering some sensors' directional antennas, our protocol could deal with the changes of network topology or monitoring tasks. …”

Robust Output Synchronization of Arrays of Chaotic Sprott Circuits by Ernesto V. Gonzalez Solis, David I. Rosas Almeida

“…This technique can be applied to different topologies and is robust to parametric uncertainties caused by tolerances in the electronic components. The design of coupling signals is based on the definition of a set of functionals which depend on the errors between the outputs of the nodes and the errors between the output of a reference system and the outputs of the nodes. …”
