This paper presents the design and implementation of a pipelined architecture and a method for real-time human detection using depth image from a Time-of-Flight (ToF) camera. In the proposed method, we use Euclidean Distance Transform (EDT) in order to extract human body location, and we then use the 1D, 2D scanning window in order to extract human joint location. The EDT-based human extraction method is robust against noise. In addition, the 1D, 2D scanning window helps extracting human joint locations easily from a distance image. The proposed method is designed using Verilog HDL (Hardware Description Language) as the dedicated hardware architecture based on pipeline architecture. We implement the dedicated hardware architecture on a Xilinx Virtex6 LX750 Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA). The FPGA implementation can run 80 MHz of maximum operating frequency and show over 60fps of processing performance in the QVGA ($320{\times}240$) resolution depth image.

There have been many demands for th ereal-time image compression. The image compression systems have a wide range of applications. However, real-time encoding is hard to implement because it needs a large amount of computations. In particular, the discrete cosine transform (DCT) and motion estimatio require a large number of arithmetic oeprations compared to other algorithms in MPEG-2. The conventional fasdt DCT algorithms have focused on the reduction of the number of additions more cycles and more expense in realization. Because TMS320C80 has special structure, new approach for implementation of DCT is suggested. The selection of adaptive algorithm and optimization is requried TMS320C80 are analyzed an dsome adaptive DCT algorithms are selected. The DCT algorithms are optimized and implemented. Chens and lees DCT algorithms among various fast algorithms are selected because 1-D approach is effective in the view of th einternal structure of TMS320C80. According to the simulation result, Lees algorithm is more effective in speed and has little difference in precision. On the basis of the result, the possibility of DCT implementation for real-time MPEG-2 system is verified and the required number of the processor, called advanced DSP, is decided for real-time MPEG-2 encoding and decoding.

This paper focuses on the DSP implementation of an HMM-based speech recognizer that can handle several hundred words of vocabulary size as well as speaker independency. First, we develop an HMM-based speech recognition system on the PC that operates on the frame basis with parallel processing of feature extraction and Viterbi decoding to make the processing delay as small as possible. Many techniques such as linear discriminant analysis, state-based Gaussian selection, and phonetic tied mixture model are employed for reduction of computational burden and memory size. The system is then properly optimized and compiled on the TMS320C6711 DSP for real-time operation. The implemented system uses 486kbytes of memory for data and acoustic models, and 24.5kbytes for program code. Maximum required time of 29.2ms for processing a frame of 32ms of speech validates real-time operation of the implemented system.

In this paper, we designed real time mechanism control language and proposed execution time analysis technique. It was impossible to handle real-time mechanism control programs like programmable controller, numerical controller, distributed control system and robot controller with general purpose programming languages and operating systems because they have to process electric signals generated by thousands of sensors at the same at the same time and in real time. So we made it possible to predict plausibility of time constraint constructs of tiem constraint construct of a real time application program at compilation time by adding time constraint constructs and mechanism synchronization structure to conditional statement and iteration statement of a programming language and developing execution time analysis technique.

Existing system management software solutions show limitations in time and space, as well as problems such as uncertain error messages, and also difficulty providing swift assistance or real time emergency support. Therefore, a wireless remote control system has been designed and implemented in this thesis, which is capable of managing and monitoring remote systems using mobile communication devices (Mobile Phone, PDA, Smart Phone, Webpad) for instantaneous control. The implemented real time wireless remote control system provides remote server management functions, error or event message (unctions, log record functions, authentication function via mobile devices.

This paper evaluates the real-time performance of the Train Communication Network (TCN) that consists of WTB and MVB. A run-time scheduling algorithm for the hard-real time communication was proposed and its performance was evaluated. Also, a new addressing method and the adaptive tree algorithm were suggested to enhance performance. The overall performance was evaluated by computer simulation using Arena.

Recently various control algorithms for industrial manipulators have been proposed. However, computation time, modelling error, and torque type controller design have prevented real-time implementation. As the result, most of performance evaluations of control algorithms have been carried out only by computer simulations. In this paper, we explore real-time implementation to show the feasibility and effectiveness of such algorithms. Experimental results indicate that computed torque method and learning control algorithms can be effectively applied to control industrial manipulators.

This paper describes a real-time implementation of a GSM-EFR (Global System for Mobil communications Enhanced Full Rate) speech coder using OakDSP core; a 16bit fixed-point Digital Signal Processor (DSP) by DSP Group, Inc. The real-time implemented speech coder required about 24MIPS for computation and 7.06K words and 12.19K words for code and data memory, respectively. The implemented GSM-EFR speech coder passes all of test vectors provided by ETSI (European Telecommunication Standard Institute), and perceptual speech quality measurement using MNB algorithm shows that the quality of the GSM-EFR speech coder is similar to the one of 32kbps ADPCM. The real-time implemented GSM-EFR speech coder which is the highest bit-rate mode of the GSM-AMR speech coder will be used as the basic structure of the GSM-AMR speech coder which is embedded in MODEM ASIC of IMT2000 asynchronous mode mobile station.

In this paper, it is proposed the implementation of face authentication system based on real-time image processing. We described the process implementing the two steps for real-time face authentication system. At first face detection steps, we describe the face detection by using feature of wavelet transform, LoG operator and hausdorff distance matching. In the second step we describe the new dual-line principal component analysis(PCA) for real-time face recognition. It is combines horizontal line to vertical line so as to accept local changes of PCA. The proposed system is affected a little by the video size and resolution. And then simulation results confirm the effectiveness of out system and demonstrate its superiority to other conventional algorithm. Finally, the possibility of performance evaluation and real-time processing was confirmed through the implementation of face authentication system.

In this paper, we present real-time implementation of a R2MFC/DTMF (R2 Multi Frequency Combinations/Dual Tone Multiple Frequency) tone receiver/sender using a high performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and apply it to a carrier class VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) gateway system. The Receiver utilizes the Goertzel filter and the sender adopts the harmonic resonant filter. We describe, in detail, the techniques of multi-channel real-time implementation on a Texas Instruments TMS320C62x DSP such as effective PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) in/out by means of DMA (Direct Memory Access) and McBSP (Multi Channel Buffered Serial Port) and message communication via HPI (Host Port Interface), etc. From experimental results, we confirmed that the optimized code provided 780 channel capacity at 250㎒ C6202, and the our R2MFC/DTMF receiver/sender met ITU-T (International Telecommunication Union-Telecommunication) specifications.
