The IceCube data acquisition system: Signal capture, digitization, and timestamping
IceCube is a km-scale neutrino observatory under construction at the South Pole with sensors both in the deep ice (InIce) and on the surface (IceTop). The sensors, called Digital Optical Modules (DOMs), detect, digitize and timestamp the signals from optical Cherenkov-radiation photons. The DOM Main Board (MB) data acquisition subsystem is connected to the central DAQ in the IceCube Laboratory ...
متن کاملFPGA-Based Signal Acquisition System
This paper presents a high-performance four-channel signal acquisition system composed of frequency channelizers and signal detectors in a single 6U VME slot. The intense computational complexity necessary to implement such an application requires field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) to achieve a 10x performance density increase over a traditional GPP implementation. The same application perf...
متن کاملSatellite Signal Acquisition, Tracking, and Data Demodulation
In practice, a GPS receiver must first replicate the PRN code that is transmitted by the SV being acquired by the receiver; then it must shift the phase of the replica code until it correlates with the SV PRN code. When cross-correlating the transmitted PRN code with a replica code, the same correlation properties occur that occurs for the mathematical autocorrelation process for a given PRN co...
متن کاملCorrect and Efficient Timestamping of Temporal Data
Previous approaches to timestamping temporal data have implicitly assumed that transactions have no duration. In this paper we identify several situations where a sequence of operations over time within a single transaction can violate ACID properties. It has been previously shown that the transaction-time dimension must be timestamped after commit. This time is not known within the transaction...
متن کاملHigh-density data acquisition system and signal preprocessor for interfacing with microelectromechanical system-based biosensor arrays.
Microelectromechanical system (MEMS) development has become an active area for research in over the last decade. This area has advanced rapidly in recent years due to the potential ability of MEMS devices to perform complex functions in a smaller area. There is also the prospect to develop devices that can (1) be easily manufactured, (2) offer low power consumption, and (3) reduce waste. Especi...
