Using the characteristics of a moving object, this paper presents a compressive imaging method for moving objects based on a linear array sensor. The method uses a higher sampling frequency and a traditional algorithm to recover the image through a column-by-column process. During the compressive sampling stage, the output values of the linear array sensor are multiplied by a coefficient that is a measurement matrix element, and then the measurement value can be acquired by adding all the multiplication values together. During the reconstruction stage, the orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm is used to recover the original image when all the measurement values are obtained. Numerical simulations and experimental results show that the proposed compressive imaging method not only effectively captures the information required from the moving object for image reconstruction but also achieves direct separation of the moving object from a static scene.

In today’s modern wireless era, reconfigurable antennas play a vital role for functioning under selective frequency bands, different polarizations and radiation patterns according to the users’ application. This article, gives an insight on solid state plasma planar compound reconfigurable antenna for military radar applications at X-band by using array of Lateral PIN (LPIN) diodes. Silicon-dioxide (SiO2 ) is used as substrate and proximity coupled feeding technique is chosen to avoid biasing problem in LPIN diodes and also to have compatibility with processing on a standard silicon process. The proposed antenna comprises of a square metallic patch placed above the substrate with linear array of LPIN diodes at adjacent sides of patch to provide fine and coarse tuning in frequency over the range of 8-12 GHz and LPIN diodes placed in the ground plane to provide pattern reconfiguration. Hence, the antenna with compound reconfigurability converges to a solution, where a single antenna satisfies the needs for multiple applications.

This paper presents a two-stage ADC based on pseudo-differential operational transconductance amplifier (OTA), which is designed for the readout circuit of X-ray linear array sensor. This hybrid ADC employs an incremental sigma-delta ADC and a cyclic ADC, achieving a good trade-off between accuracy and conversion speed. The two stages share the same hardware to reduce power consumption and die area. A common-mood feedback module is used to suppress the influence of charge injection, and the effectiveness is demonstrated by detailed theoretical analysis. A test chip of 14-bit ADC is fabricated in 0.35μm CMOS technology. The measured root mean square (RMS) value of DNL is 0.254 LSB, and the maximum value of INL is -0.776/+1.56 LSB. The measured effective number of bits (ENOB) is 13.43 bits.
