More Book Details

Description of the Book:

The goal of this proposal was to establish an infrastructure for Field programmable Gate Array (FPGA) programming and development of algorithms which will be used in work on implementing custom data processing capabilities in small, ultra-low power, portable devices. This system is intended to support existing DoD projects and will enable work on future generation of smart electronics for use in military and other applications. The equipment will be used in the Laboratory for Instrumentation, Sensors and Power Electronics (LISPEL) at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNCC). The platform will be based on a Peripheral Component Interconnect eXtensions for Instrumentation (PXI) system. This modular instrumentation architecture will allow for easy deployment of our data processing schemes on the devices. Right now all the processing is done after transmitting the acquired data to a computer. By moving the processing to the front end of the data gathering chain, we expect to reduce or completely eliminate communication between any external data gathering center and the peripheral devices collecting the information.

Only the essential information will be conveyed, thus eliminating the data clutter haunting multi-node, data acquisition systems. In addition to the FPGA development capabilities the system will allow us to automate tests of the devices, as it includes all the necessary signal generation, control, and acquisition modules
