چکیده

This paper proposes a methodology for modelling and simulation of RF systems in SystemC-WMS. Analog RF modules have been described at system level only by using their specifications. A complete Bluetooth transceiver, consisting of digital and analog blocks, has been modelled and simulated using the proposed design methodology. The developed transceiver modules have been connected to the higher levels of the Bluetooth stack described in SystemC, allowing the analysis of the performance of the Bluetooth protocol at all the different layers of the protocol stack.

Proposal to Extend SystemC-AMS with a Bond Graph Based Model of Computation

There is a need to improve the modelling capabilities of SystemC-AMS concerning conservative continuous time systems involving the interaction of several physical domains and the interaction with digital control components. Bond graphs unify the description of multi-domain systems by modelling the energy flow between the electrical and non-electrical components. They integrate well with block d...

Tutorials A 1 : System Modelling

Complexities of present systems or SoC designs are forcing the movement to a higher level of abstraction than RTL. With most of the system containing a large portion of software, the present languages, methodologies and tools are not adequate to tackle system-level design. SystemC is a C++ class library aimed at modelling systems with hardware and software content at many different levels of ab...

SystemC-AMS Models for Low-Power Heterogeneous Designs: Application to a WSN for the Detection of Seismic Perturbations

The paper presents a system-level approach for the modeling and simulation of a genuine heterogeneous system composed of individually powered Wireless Sensor Network nodes. The models are written in SystemC-AMS, an open-source C++ extension to the OSCI SystemC Standard dedicated to the description of AMS designs containing digital, analog, RF hardware as well as physical, optical or chemical IP...

Modelling Tile-Based Run-Time Reconfigurable Systems Using SystemC

In the area of hardware design, there is a noticeable trend towards the use of run-time reconfigurable elements as parts of System-on-Chips (SoCs), SoCs themselves are frequently targeted to reconfigurable platforms such as field programmable gate arrays. This development is a challenge to established high-level modelling and simulation methods which assume a static structure of the simulated s...

An Extension to Systemc to Allow Modelling of Analogue and Mixed Signal Systems at Different Abstraction Levels

SystemC is Hardware Description Language HDL for digital systems. An extension is proposed in this paper to extended the capabilities of SystemC to allow modelling of analogue and mixed-signal systems. The proposed extension provides a variety of abstraction levels, from system level to circuit level. In order to comply with the SystemC simulation cycle semantics, the analogue kernel is linked ...
