In this paper, we proposed a hardware(H/W) structure which can compress and recontruct the input image in real time operation and implemented it into a FPGA platform using VHDL(VHSIC Hardware Description Language). All the image processing element to process both compression and reconstruction in a FPGA were considered each of them was mapped into H/W with the efficient structure for FPGA. We used the DWT(discrete wavelet transform) which transforms the data from spatial domain to the frequency domain, because use considered the motion JPEG2000 as the application. The implemented H/W is separated to both the data path part and the control part. The data path part consisted of the image processing blocks and the data processing blocks. The image processing blocks consisted of the DWT Kernel fur the filtering by DWT, Quantizer/Huffman Encoder, Inverse Adder/Buffer for adding the low frequency coefficient to the high frequency one in the inverse DWT operation, and Huffman Decoder. Also there existed the interface blocks for communicating with the external application environments and the timing blocks for buffering between the internal blocks The global operations of the designed H/W are the image compression and the reconstruction, and it is operated by the unit of a field synchronized with the A/D converter. The implemented H/W used the 69%(16980) LAB(Logic Array Block) and 9%(28352) ESB(Embedded System Block) in the APEX20KC EP20K600CB652-7 FPGA chip of ALTERA, and stably operated in the 70MHz clock frequency. So we verified the real time operation of 60 fields/sec(30 frames/sec).

In this paper, an efficient hardware platform for the digital signal processing for OFDM Communication systems is presented. The hardware platform consists of a single FPGA, two DSPs with 8000 MIPS of maximum at 1 GHz clock, 2-channel ADC and DAC supporting maximum 125 MHz sampling rate, and flexible data bus architecture, so that a wide variety of baseband signal processing algorithms for practical OFDM communication systems may be implemented and tested. The IEEE 802.16 software modem is also presented in order to verify the effectiveness and usefulness of the designed platform.

본 논문에서는 PID, PWM, HSC, 컴퓨터와의 호스트 통신, 외부 DAC 인터페이스를 FPGA만을 이용하여 하나의 Chip에 구현하고 DC 서보 모터의 속도를 설정한 제어 상태로 안정화시킬 수 있는 시스템을 구현하고자 한다. 컴퓨터에서 설정한 설정치(SV)와 P, I, D의 이득 값을 호스트 통신으로 데이터 블록은 해당 블록으로 전달하며 DC 서보 모터의 엔코더에서 나오는 $90^{\circ}$ 위상차가 있는 2채널의 펄스는 HSC 블록을 거쳐 프로세스치(PV)를 생성 고 이로부터 얻어진 SV와 PV의 편차(E)를 산출한 후 PID 제어 동작을 수행한다. 그 결과인 조작치(MV)를 PWM 블록에 제공하여 실질적으로 DC 서보 모터를 구동하는 H-bridge 회로를 구동한다. 또한 FPGA 내부의 SV, PV, E, MV를 오실로스코프로 계측하기 위해 DAC 인터페이스 블록을 첨가 하여 외부 디지털 아날로그 변환기(DAC)를 제어 하였다.

본 논문에서는 임베디드 시스템 온칩 적용을 위한 통합 보안 프로세서를 SIP(Semiconductor Intellectual Property)로 설계하였다. 각각의 SIP는 VHDL RTL로 모델링하였으며, 논리합성, 시뮬레이션, FPGA 검증을 통해 재사용이 가능하도록 구현하였다. 또한 ARM9과 SIP들이 서로 통신이 가능하도록 AMBA AHB의 스펙에 따라 버스동작모델을 설계, 검증하였다. 플랫폼기반의 통합 보안 SIP는 ECC, AES, MD-5가 내부 코어를 이루고 있으며 각각의 SIP들은 ARM9과 100만 게이트 FPGA가 내장된 디바이스를 사용하여 검증하였으며 최종적으로 매그나칩 $0.25{\mu}m(4.7mm\times4.7mm)$ CMOS 공정을 사용하여 MPW(Multi-Project Wafer) 칩으로 제작하였다.

This paper implemented the conventional FAST and BRIEF algorithm as hardware on Zynq-7000 SoC Platform. Previous feature-based hardware accelerator is mostly implemented using the SIFT or SURF algorithm, but it requires excessive internal memory and hardware cost. The proposed FAST & BRIEF accelerator reduces approximately 57% of internal memory usage and 70% of hardware cost compared to the conventional SIFT or SURF accelerator, and it processes 0.17 pixel per Clock.

In this paper, we designed a diversity modem hardware architecture for IEEE802.11p WAVE and tested the modem on the road with car attached shark antenna. One of the dual channel modem and the diversity single modem with maximum ratio combining algorithm can be selected on the designed architecture. The designed modem have been implemented on the Xillinx Kintex7 FPGA. We tested the modem performance on the smart highway experience road. As experimental results, we can verify the performance of the diversity modem on real road and the enlarged communication range by more than 30%.

In this paper, the IC(Integrated Circuit) for multi-channel synchronous communication was designed by using FPGA and VHDL language. The existing chips for synchronous communication that has been used commercially are composed for one to two channels. Therefore, when communication system with three channels or more is made, the cost becomes high and it becomes complicated for communication system to be realized and also has very little buffer, load that is placed into Microprocessor increases heavily in case of high speed communication or transmission of high-capacity data. The designed IC was improved the function and performance of communication system and reduced costs by designing 8 synchronous communication channels with only one IC, and it has the size of transmitter/receiver buffer with 1024 bytes respectively and consequently high speed communication became possible. It was designed with a communication signal of a form various encoding. To detect errors of communications, the CRC-ITU-T logic and channel MUX logic was designed with hardware logics so that the malfunction can be prevented and errors can be detected more easily and input/output port regarding each communication channel can be used flexibly and consequently the reliability of system was improved. In order to show the performance of designed IC, the test was conducted successfully in Quartus simulation and experiment and the excellence was compared with the 85C3016VSC of ZILOG company that are used widely as chips for synchronous communication.
