SPIRAL is a generator of optimized, platform-adapted libraries for digital signal processing algorithms. SPIRAL's strategy translates the implementation task into a search in an expanded space of alternatives. These result from the many degrees of freedom in the DSP algorithm itself and in the various coding choices. This paper describes the framework to represent and generate eeciently these a...

This letter presents a low power CMOS pulse generator based on spectral efficiently gated oscillator for multiband impulse radio ultra-wideband (UWB) system. The pulse generator is based on an on/off switched LC oscillator with the trapezoid switching pulse. By using trapezoid pulse for on/off switching signal of the oscillator, better output spectral characteristic can be achieved without addi...

HE objective of this project was to create a 5.8 GHz Signal Generator “capable of generating a CW signal in the 5.725 5.850 ISM band capable of FCC Part 15-compliant frequency hopping.” [1] This was one part of a three-part wireless power harvesting system, including a power amplifier immediately before the transmit antenna and a charge pump at the receiver to turn on an LED. There was no requi...

A new CMOS current-mode pseudo-exponential circuit based on the superior-order Taylor series expansion will be presented. The advantage of the circuit with respect to the previous reported similar ones is the smaller value of the limited expansion error obtained by using a superior-order approximation of the exponential function. Because of the circuit modularity and of the small silicon area c...

Brain Machine Interface (BMI) denominates a collection of systems which interface with the Central Nervous System (CNS). Implementation of a BMI involves the detection, extraction, processing, and translation of the signals from the Central Nervous System. A simulator to generate extracellular recordings is proposed by P.T.Thorbergsson, H. Jorntell, F.Bengtsson, M.Garwicz, J. Schouenborg, A.J J...

This paper describes a design of signal generator based on direct digital synthesis technique (DDS). According to the basic principles of DDS using Matlab/DSP Builder establish DDS model, then compiling by the SignalCompiler tools and generating VHDL code. Finally download the relevant documents to the field programmable gate array (FPGA) chip EP2C5Q208C8N. EP2C5Q208C8N and digital-analog chip ...
