Recently, PWM inverter is widely utilized for many industrial applications such as high performance drive and space vector pulse width modulation(SVPWM) inverter which has high voltage ratio and low harmonics compared to conventional PWM inverter. This paper presents the implementation on a field programmable gate array(FPGA) of a SVPWM module for a voltage source inverter. The SVPWM module consists of PWM generator, current and position sensor interface and dead time compensator. The implemented SVPWM module can be integrated with a digital signal processor(DSP) to provide a flexible and effective solution for high performance voltage source inverter and for the use of multi-motor control. The performance of SVPWM module is verified by simulation and several experimental results.

This paper presents the design of a System on Programmable Chip (SoPC) based on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) for speech recognition in which Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) for speech feature extraction and Vector Quantization for recognition are used. The implementing process of the speech recognition system undergoes the following steps: feature extraction, training codebook, recognition. In the first step of feature extraction, the input voice data will be transformed into spectral components and extracted to get the main features by using MFCC algorithm. In the recognition step, the obtained spectral features from the first step will be processed and compared with the trained components. The Vector Quantization (VQ) is applied in this step. In our experiment, Altera's DE2 board with Cyclone II FPGA is used to implement the recognition system which can recognize 64 words. The execution speed of the blocks in the speech recognition system is surveyed by calculating the number of clock cycles while executing each block. The recognition accuracies are also measured in different parameters of the system. These results in execution speed and recognition accuracy could help the designer to choose the best configurations in speech recognition on SoPC.

This research deals with the implementation procedures of a chorus processing DSP for karaoke system. It is necessary to compress the chorus data to store as many choruses as we can. We apply MPEG-1 audio algorithm to compress the chorus data. And the chorus system must be accompanied with the karaoke that can change the key and the tempo. So the chorus DSP must be able to change the key and tempo of the chorus data. We apply SOLA (Synchronized Overlap and Add) to do it. We designed the chorus DSP that can compress the chorus, change the key and tempo. And we verified the chorus DSP logic using FPGA. The used FPGA are two FLEX10K100s made by ALTERA. Finally we make the ASIC chip of chorus DSP and verify its operation.

This paper presents an implementation of selective harmonic elimination (SHE) modulation for a single-phase 13-level transistor-clamped H-bridge (TCHB) based cascaded multilevel inverter. To determine the optimum switching angle of the SHE equations, the Newton-Raphson method is used in solving the transcendental equation describing the fundamental and harmonic components. The proposed SHE scheme used the relationship between the angles and a sinusoidal reference waveform based on voltage-angle equal criteria. The proposed SHE scheme is evaluated through simulation and experimental results. The digital modulator based-SHE scheme using a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is described and has been implemented on an Altera DE2 board. The proposed SHE is efficient in eliminating the $3^{rd}$, $5^{th}$, $7^{th}$, $9^{th}$ and $11^{th}$ order harmonics, which validates the analytical results. From the results, it can be seen that the adopted 13-level inverter produces a higher quality with a better harmonic profile and sinusoidal shape of the stepped output waveform.

A watermarking for copyright protection of digital contents for broadcasting have to be made for a real-time system. In this paper, we propose a real-time video watermarking system which is hardware-based watermarking system of SD/HD (standard definition/high definition) video with the STRATIX FPGA device from ALTERA. There was little visual artifact due to watermarking in subjective quality evaluation between the original video and the watermarked one in our experiment. Embedded watermark was extracted after robustness testscalled natural video attacks such as A/D (analog/digital) conversion. Our implemented watermarking hardware system can be useful in movie production and broadcasting companies that requires real-time contents protection systems.

LILI-II stream cipher is an upgraded version of the LILI-128, one of candidates in NESSIE. Since the algorithm is a clock-controlled, the speed of the keystream data is degraded structurally in a clock-synchronized hardware logic design. Accordingly, this paper proposes a 4-bit parallel LFSR, where each register bit includes four variable data routines for feedback or shifting within the LFSR. furthermore, the timing of the proposed design is simulated using a Max+plus II from the ALTERA Co., the logic circuit is implemented for an FPGA device (EPF10K20RC240-3), and apply to the Lucent ASIC device (LV160C, 0.13${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS ＆ 1.5v technology), and it could achieve a throughput of about 500 Mbps with a 0.13${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ semiconductor for the maximum path delay below 1.8㎱. Finally, we propose the m-parallel implementation of LILI-II, throughput with 4, 8 or 16 Gbps (m=8, 16 or 32).

A multi-channel digital GPS receiver has been developed including a RF-to-IF engine (engine 1), a digital signal processing engine (engine 2) with a microprocessor interfacing, and a navigation software. A high speed SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) as a active device has been mounted on chip-on-board (COB) type hybrid ICs such as LNA, mixer, and VCO in RF front-end of the engine 1 board. A 6-channel digital correlator together with a real-time clock and a microprocessor interface has been realized using an Altera Flex 10K FPGA as well as ASIC technology. Navigation software controlling the correlator for GPS signal tracking, retrieval and storing a message retrieval, and position calculation has been implemented. The GPS receiver was tested using a single channel STR2770 simulator. Successful navigation message retrieval and position determination was confirmed.

This study is concerned with implementing an external memory expansion device for large-scale image processing. It consists of an external memory adapter card with a PCI(Peripheral Component Interconnect) Express Gen3 x8 interface mounted on a graphics workstation for image processing and an external memory board with external DDR(Dual Data Rate) memory. The connection between the memory adapter card and the external memory board is made through the optical interface. In order to access the external memory, both Programmable I/O and DMA(Direct Memory Access) methods can be used to efficiently transmit and receive image data. We implemented the result of this study using the boards equipped with Altera Stratix V FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Array) and 40G optical transceiver and the test result shows 1.6GB/s bandwidth performance.. It can handle one channel of 4K UHD(Ultra High Density) image. We will continue our study in the future for showing bandwidth of 3GB/s or more.

This paper presents the design of a video encoder for the device of need TV-OUT function. The designed video encoder satisfies the standard conditions of International Telecommunication Union-Radiocommunication (ITU-R) BT.470. ITU-R BT.470 can be classified as NTSC, PAL or SECAM. NTSC and PAL use Amplitude Modulation (AM) to transmit color difference signals and SECAM uses Frequency Modulation (FM). SECAM must have an antic-cloche filter but the filter recommended by ITU-R BT.470 is not easy to design due to sharpness of the frequency response. So formerly the filter was designed as analog. This paper proposes that the filter is designed as digital and the special quality of the filter is transformed easy to design. And the modulation method is modified to be identical with the result required at standard. The encoder can control power consumption by output mode to apply mobile phone, mobile devices, etc. The proposed encoder is experimentally demonstrated with ALTERA FPGA APEX20KE EP20K1000EBC652-3 device and SAMSUNG LCD-TV.
