High performance digital computer technology enables the digital computer-based controllers to replace traditional analog controllers used for factory automations. This replacement, however, brings up the side effects caused by discrete quantization and non-real-time execution of control softwares. This paper describes the structure of real-time simulator and controller that can be used for design and verification of real-time digital controllers. The virtual machine concept adopted by real-time simulator make the proposed simulator be independent from the specific hardware platforms. The proposed system can also be used in the loosely coupled distributed environments connected through local area network using real-time message passing algorithm and virtual data table based on the shared memory mechanism.

In this paper, a design for a fully digital voltage sensor using a 32-nm fin-type field-effect transistor (FinFET) is presented. A new characteristic of the double gate p-type FinFET (p-FinFET) is examined and proven appropriate for sensing voltage variations. On the basis of this characteristic, a novel technique for designing low-power voltage-to-time converters is presented. Then, we develop a digital voltage sensor with a voltage range of 0.7 to 1.1V at a 50-mV resolution. The performance of the proposed sensor is evaluated under a range of voltages and process variations using Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis (SPICE) simulations, and the sensor is proven capable of operating under ultra-low power consumption, high linearity, and fairly high-frequency conditions (i.e., 100 MHz).

This paper describes fuzzy control methodologies of the steam generator which have nonlinear characteristics in the nuclear power plant. Actually, the steam generator part of the power generator has a problem to control water level because it has complex components and nonlinear characteristics. In order to control nonlinear terms of the model, Takagj-Sugeno (75) fuzzy system is used to design a controller. In designing procedure, intelligent digital redesign method is used to control the nonlinear system. This digital controller keeps the performance of the analog controller. Simulation examples are included for ensuring the proposed control method.

This paper presents the VHSIC Hardware Description Language(VHDL) implementation of the Fixed Point Covariance Lattice(FLAT) algorithm for an Linear Predictive Coding(LPC) analysis and its related algorithms, such as the forth order high pass Infinite Impulse Response(IIR) filter, covariance matrix calculation, and Spectral Smoothing Technique(SST) in the Vector Sum Exited Linear Predictive(VSELP) speech coder that has been Selected as the standard speech coder for the North America and Japanese digital cellular. Existing Digital Signal Processor(DSP) chips used in digital cellular phones are derived from general purpose DSP chips, and thus, these DSP chips may not be optimal and effective architectures are to be designed for the above mentioned algorithms. Then we implemented the VHDL code based on the C code, Finally, we verified that VHDL results are the same as C code results for real speech data. The implemented VHDL code can be used for performing logic synthesis and for designing an LPC Application Specific Integrated Circuit(ASOC) chip and DsP chips. We first developed the C language code to investigate the correctness of algorithms and to compare C code results with VHDL code results block by block.

In FIR (Finite Impulse Response) filter applications, Nth-band F]U digital filters are known to be important due to their reduced computational requirements. The conventional methods for designing F]U filters use iterative approaches such as the well-known Parks-Mcclellan algorithm. The Parks-Mcclellan algorithm is also used to design Nth-band FIR digital filters. But a disadvantage of the Parks-Mcclellan algorithm is that it needs a good amount of design time. This paper describes a direct design method for Nth-band FIR Filters using Chebyshev polynomials, which provides a reduced design time over indirect methods such as the Parks-Mcclellan algorithm. The response of the resulting filter is equiripple in passband. Our proposed method produces a passband response that is equripple to within a minuscule error, comparable to that of the Parks-Mcclellan algorithm.

This paper presents implementation of Air protocol analyzer and physical layer design algorithm. The analyzer is a measurement system providing real-time analysis of wireless signals between User Equipment (UE) and Node-B. The implemented system proposed in this paper consists of Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) and Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). The waveform of Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) has been selected for verification of the proposed system. We designed the analyzer using equalizer algorithm and rake-receiver algorithm. Among various algorithms of designing the equalizer, we have chosen Linear Minimum Mean Square Error (LMMSE) equalizer that uses the inverse of channel matrix. Since the LMMSE equalizer uses the inverse channel matrix, it suffers from a large amount of computational load, while it outperforms most conventional equalizers. In this paper, we introduce an efficient procedure of reducing the computational load required by LMMSE equalizer-based receiver.

In this paper, the CAD program for designing the microwave waveguide narrow-band bandpass filters has been developed by the passband correction method with filter synthesis for the MDR(Microwave Digital Relay) system. Here, the modified double E-plane structures are employed in the filter structure which is analyzed by the variational method. Using the developed CAD program, 0.01dB equi-ripple chebyshev type 6-section bandpass filters used in the MDR system operating nationally is designed at the center frequency of 11.0GHz, fabricated with tunable type and then measured by tuning process. The experimantal results show good agreements with the theoretical results.

The progress of silicon technology enables to implement a highly complex digital system on a given chip area. However, even the modern design environment is not so efficient to catch up with the progress of process technology. Design reuse is a promising approach to designing such a complex system in an efficient way. However, the rigidness and inflexibility of a model has been an obstacle to design reuse. This paper proposes a high-level model management methodology by introducing attributed AND-OR graph(AOG), a (formal semantics for representing the possible structure of a model. Using the formalism enables a designer to extract, extend and reuse the pre-modeled and pre-verified design. A complete process of constructing a cache operational model, extending the model and extracting executable models is exemplified to show effectiveness of the proposed framework.

The conventional methods for designing FIR filters use iterative approaches such as the well-known Parks-Mcclellan algorithm. the Parks-Mcclellan algorithm is also used to design Nth-band FIR digital filters. But a disadvantage of the Parks-McClellan algorithm Is that it needs a good amount of design time. This paper describes a direct design method for third-band FIR Filters using Chebyshev polynomial, which provide a reduction in design time over indirect methods such as the Parks-McClellan algorithm. The response of the resulting filter is equi-ripple in passband. The proposed method of design produces a passband response that is equi-ripple to within a minuscule error, compare to that of the Parks-McClellan algorithm.
