Huang, Shijie (author)Class D amplifiers find widespread application in audio devices for driving load speakers, primarily due to their remarkable efficiency. Nonetheless, this enhanced efficiency often comes at the expense of reduced linearity. Hence, techniques for reducing Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) are important in the context of class D amplifiers.<br/><br/...master thesis 2023

Appelman, Tycho (author), Bruinsma, Carli (author), Ouaissa, Anass (author)Lunar dust presents a serious problem for future lunar rovers. Due to the charged nature of this fine dust, it tends to stick to sensitive elements like solar panels. It is clear that a system needs to be implemented in order to remove lunar dust to keep the output power of the solar panel at a satisfactory level. This paper develops the proof...bachelor thesis 2023

Geerling, Tom (author), Mihankhah, Mehrdad (author), Plantfeber, Tim (author)One of the major challenges faced by future robotic and human missions to Mars and the Moon is the presence of atmospheric dust. The Lunar Zebro rover which is intended to walk on the Moon is powered by solar panel. Due to its surrounding terrain, which mostly consists of small particles, the rover may be a potential target for dust accumulation...bachelor thesis 2023

van Dam, Nadine (author), Jonker, Mees (author)Unmanned underwater vehicles benefit from communication with a high data rate on relatively small distances (under 100 m). Existing communication methods are not able to provide this or present other shortcomings. Therefore, this bachelor end project focuses on a new type of underwater communication, quasi-static electric field communication....bachelor thesis 2022

van Mourik, Floris (author), Onstein, Teije (author)As electromagnetic waves cannot propagate sufficiently far in water, underwater communication is mainly performed using either acoustics or optics. However, none of these technologies have been proven to be completely effective in every situation. Therefore, research in new underwater communication systems can still bring large benefits to a...bachelor thesis 2022
