This paper investigates the application of tensor decomposition and the stochastic Galerkin method for the uncertainty quantification of complex systems characterized by high parameter dimensionality. By employing these methods, we construct surrogate models aimed at efficiently predicting system output uncertainty. The effectiveness of our approaches is demonstrated through a comparative analysis of accuracy and CPU cost with conventional Galerkin methods, using two transmission line circuit examples with up to 25 parameters.

Recently, Polynomial Chaos (PC) has been proposed as efficient approach for performing uncertainty quantification in the the context of electronic design automation. A related approach, Rational Polynomial Chaos (RPC) was later developed for applications that exhibit a large variation in the quantity of interest. One of the key bottlenecks for both PC and RPC is the number of circuit evaluation needed, particularly as the number of random parameters increases (often referred to as the curse of dimentionality). In this paper, we propose an approach that uses sensitivity information to significantly reduce the number of circuit evaluations needed for Rational Polynomial Chaos. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed approach.

Temperature variation poses a significant challenge for battery-free sensors and Internet of Things (IoT) systems, mainly due to the absence of built-in temperature compensation modules. This work presents a strategy to identify Schottky diodes for low-power RF-to-dc Dickson charge pump (DCP) rectifiers to enhance temperature stability. Theoretical analysis pinpoints that performance degradation in dynamic temperatures results from the mismatch loss between diode nonlinear junction resistance and load resistance. The analytical method is implemented to synthesize the optimum number of stages and identify suitable Schottky diodes for low-power RF-to-dc DCP rectifiers. Experimental measurements demonstrate that the SMS7621-based 3-stage RF-to-dc DCP rectifier maintains a wide matched operating temperature range from 32.5 °C to 70 °C. Further experiments show that its dc output voltage remains above 3.2 V across a wide temperature range of 40 °C to 80 °C when the RF input is 8 dBm, which can drive a commercial wireless sensor board. This work aims to serve as a benchmark for developing reliable low-power RF-to-dc DCP rectifiers that meet various operating temperature requirements of battery-free IoT sensors.

In [1], we proposed the methodology to use the sensitivity information for building the Least-Squares SVM-based surrogate model for uncertainty quantification in the context of circuit systems. It was shown in [1] that the sensitivity-enhanced LS-SVM could successfully reduce the simulation data required for building LS-SVM-based surrogate models. However, the number of samples required for building the surrogate model is not known a priori. In this paper, we present an iterative technique that uses the nested Latin hypercubes to add the samples until the surrogate model achieves the desired accuracy. The presented technique is demonstrated using two numerical examples, where we show that the proposed method, when used with [1], can significantly reduce the amount of simulation data required for building LS-SVM-based surrogate models.

... Indeed, working in a real environment, outside of anechoic chamber, may degrade the dynamic range. Otherwise, employing two orthogonal polarizations (for UL and DL components of the E-wave) or two different harmonic frequency (using a harmonic transponder [6]- [7]) for transmission of the DL E-wave) and reception (UL E-wave) can significantly enhance the signal's dynamic range with the price of increasing system complexity. ...

... The Dickson rectifier in Figure 1 was demonstrated in the '70s by John F. Dickson [10]. In recent times, due to the practicality and simplicity of the Dickson rectifier, it has commonly been found and implemented in various charge pump and voltage doubler circuitry [11]- [16]. The coupling capacitor C1 charges during VRF < -VDIODE through D1 and functions as a doubler during VRF > VDIODE through D2 to transfer the charges to CL to generate VOUT = 2(|VRF| -VDIODE). ...

Indeed, the polymer material involved in the additive manufacturing as well as the added conductor have a major impact on the RFEH performances and it is one of the main issues of the paper to quantify the impact and discuss the pertinence of the manufacturing process proposal in this context.

... An item's level of participation in a fuzzy set indicates the extent to which it shares that set's defining features or attributes. If U is the space of uncertainty, then ωà is the membership function connected to each of its constituents in the fuzzy set Ã. Then the representation of fuzzy set is given by (Chamoun & Nour, 2021;Kassis et al., 2019;Saab & Saab, 2019): ...

... However, this can be achieved by leveraging a form of model selection. To this aim, we note that VF has already been coupled with model selection strategies [34,33], as a way to overcome one of its main limitations, namely, the need to fix the "surrogate complexity" m in advance. Without going into too many details, such model selection strategies generally work by using VF to independently build several rational approximations with different values of m, and then selecting the rational approximant characterized by the lowest approximation error 2 . ...

... The subspace methods including ORT, N4SID, MOESP, CVA) were used for the linear state space identification with different probing tests [36][37][38]. Afterwards, many variants of transfer function identification methods [8,13,[39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48] and state space identification methods [6,15,22,[49][50][51][52] were developed for data-driven control in the context of power grid applications such as damping control, voltage control and microgrid control (primary, secondary and tertiary) and aggregated load control. Generally, both transfer function and linear state space methods can represent systems well using a locally linearized model around a fixed operating point under the assumption that the system is an LTI (linear time-invariant). ...
