An FPGA-based versatile development system for endoscopic capsule design optimization

An Efficient LUT Design on FPGA for Memory-Based Multiplication

An efficient Lookup Table (LUT) design for memory-based multiplier is proposed.  This multiplier can be preferred in DSP computation where one of the inputs, which is filter coefficient to the multiplier, is fixed. In this design, all possible product terms of input multiplicand with the fixed coefficient are stored directly in memory. In contrast to an earlier proposition Odd Multiple Storage ...

FPGA Based Secure System Design-an Overview

The implementation of cryptographic algorithm on FPGA is highly addressed in different forums due to its paramount advantages over the other platforms. Most of the secure systems are designed using SRAM based FPGAs with additional security features provided by the manufactures. In this paper, firstly, attempts are made to address different security problems of FPGA based secure systems. The dif...

Superelastic leg design optimization for an endoscopic capsule with active locomotion

Nowadays Nitinol structures are accepted and highly exploited in the medical field. Therefore, studying the mechanical properties of this material—which is not trivial by considering the thermal behaviour of the alloy—is very important in order to get quantitative data for a reliable design of novel Nitinol components. In particular, this study focuses on the design optimization of superelastic...

FPGA-Based WiMAX System Design

An endoscopic capsule robot

A number of unique challenges arise in fabricating and assembling complex mechanisms at the meso-scale (hundreds of microns to centimetres). In general, for a complex multi-part mechanism at this length scale, no single machining technique can produce all the necessary parts—or often even a single individual part. Towards developing a comprehensive set of ‘best practices’ for combining multiple...
