The acoustic emission (AE) signal of wood damage is a kind of weak and highfrequency signal. Hardware circuit design and software programming are necessary for the acoustic emission data acquisition. In order to carry out further analysis, it needs to be preprocessed. The preprocessing hardware system consists of preamplifier, filtering circuit, main amplification circuit and AD converting circ...

This paper presents a novel digital miniaturization method for a prototype silicon micro-gyroscope (SMG) with the symmetrical and decoupled structure. The schematic blocks of the overall system consist of high precision analog front-end interface, high-speed 18-bit analog to digital convertor, a high-performance core Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) chip and other peripherals such as high-s...

Great effect of three way catalytic convertor (TWC) performance on oxygen sensor output voltage has made the sensor (located after catalyst) as the main signal in almost all today’s TWC monitoring algorithms. In this paper output voltage of nonlinear oxygen sensor is estimated using a nonlinear autoregressive with exogenous inputs (NARX) model. The estimation uses ECU calculated exhaust gas flo...
