Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific meetings on programmable devices and systems began in 1995 with the PDS'95 event organised by the Institute of Electronics, Silesian University of Technology (SUT). Many papers on the issues of programmable devices and systems were presented at numerous conferences and workshops devoted to electronics and circuit theory yet there were no workshops devoted solely to those particular topics. Combined with the belief that some specific common problems appeared in the area of PDS justified the decision to organise the PDS meeting. The PDS2001 IFAC Workshop, organised by the Institute of Electronics, SUT, Gliwice, Poland was the 5th event in the series. The aim of the meeting was to define the future trends of this field via the interaction of industry, technical research centres and academia representatives. This Proceedings volume contains 54 duly presented papers and many of them when compared to the Preprints volume version have been corrected and enriched with the discussion results. The papers are grouped according to the Workshop plenary sessions topics as follows: bull;Communication bull;Digital Signal Processing bull;Industrial Programmable Logic Controllers bull;Field Programmable Logic

Download or read book FPGA based Implementation of Signal Processing Systems written by Roger Woods and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-10-13 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are an increasingly popular technology for implementing digital signal processing (DSP) systems. By allowing designers to create circuit architectures developed for the specific applications, high levels of performance can be achieved for many DSP applications providing considerable improvements over conventional microprocessor and dedicated DSP processor solutions. The book addresses the key issue in this process specifically, the methods and tools needed for the design, optimization and implementation of DSP systems in programmable FPGA hardware. It presents a review of the leading-edge techniques in this field, analyzing advanced DSP-based design flows for both signal flow graph- (SFG-) based and dataflow-based implementation, system on chip (SoC) aspects, and future trends and challenges for FPGAs. The automation of the techniques for component architectural synthesis, computational models, and the reduction of energy consumption to help improve FPGA performance, are given in detail. Written from a system level design perspective and with a DSP focus, the authors present many practical application examples of complex DSP implementation, involving: high-performance computing e.g. matrix operations such as matrix multiplication; high-speed filtering including finite impulse response (FIR) filters and wave digital filters (WDFs); adaptive filtering e.g. recursive least squares (RLS) filtering; transforms such as the fast Fourier transform (FFT). FPGA-based Implementation of Signal Processing Systems is an important reference for practising engineers and researchers working on the design and development of DSP systems for radio, telecommunication, information, audio-visual and security applications. Senior level electrical and computer engineering graduates taking courses in signal processing or digital signal processing shall also find this volume of interest.
