Study of fractional flux-controlled memristor emulator connections

In this paper, the series and parallel connections of the fractional flux-controlled memristors are studied. Asymmetric I-V hysteresis with high I-V nonlinearity can be obtained from single fractional memristor as reported in literature. However, connecting different memristor emulators can convert the asymmetric hysteresis to symmetric one and maintaining the high I-V nonlinearity to be used in

Extraction of Phase Information from Magnitude-Only Bio-impedance Measurements Using a Modified Kramers–Kronig Transform

The need for portable and low-cost bio-impedance analyzers that can be deployed in field studies has significantly increased. Due to size and power constraints, reducing the hardware in these devices is crucial and most importantly is removing the need for direct phase measurement. In this paper a new magnitude-only technique based on modified Kramers–Kronig transforms is proposed and tested

High-Frequency Capacitorless Fractional-Order CPE and FI Emulator

A fractional-order capacitor and inductor emulator, implemented using MOS transistors, instead of passive capacitors, is introduced in this paper. This is achieved using current mirrors as active elements, without passive resistors, and therefore reducing the circuit complexity and resulting in both a resistorless and capacitorless topology. The emulator has been designed by combining fractional
