  2. 1. Trellis Decoding: From Algorithm to Flexible Architectures

    Author : Matthias Kamuf; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electronics; Signalbehandling; Signal processing; VLSI; Viterbi algorithm; trellis decoding; TCM; survivor path; flexibility; convolutional codes; ACS; ASIC; Elektronik; Telecommunication engineering; Telekommunikationsteknik;

    Abstract : Trellis decoding is a popular method to recover encoded information corrupted during transmission over a noisy channel. Prominent members of this class of decoding algorithms are the Viterbi algorithm, which provides maximum likelihood estimates, and the BCJR algorithm, which is a maximum a posteriori estimator commonly used in iterative decoding.

  4. 2. Custom Designed Digital Signal Processors Using Bit-Serial Arithmetic

    Author : Peter Nilsson; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; On-Chip Clocking; Digital IF-Filtering; Digital Wideband Filtering; Elektronik; Electronics; Bit-Serial Arithmetic; CMOS; Custom DSP; VLSI;

    Abstract : This thesis presents two prime contributions. First, digital filters for both intermediate and base band filtering for mobile communication are presented. Second, a local clock for on-chip clock generation is introduced. The intermediate frequency filter is a digital alternative to today's analog filters. READ MORE

  5. 3. Manufacturability in the Nanometer Era: Regularity considerations in VLSI Circuits

    Author : Kasyab Parmesh Subramaniyan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Regular Fabrics; Shifters; Barrel Shifter; ASIC; TDM; Bricks; Wired; Transistor; VLSI.; Multipliers; CMOS; HPM; Regularity; SoC; Arithmetic; Circuits;

    Abstract : Each reduction of the technology node has, along with improvements in IC fabricationtechnology, been the main driver in delivering the demand for function rich, integratedmobile electronics that are so prevalent. As devices keep growing smaller and geometriesapproach the order of a few atomic layers, it is increasingly difficult to achievecost-effective mass production for reasons related to performance and fabrication capability.

  6. 4. Design Issues in VLSI Implementation of Image Processing Hardware Accelerators - Methodology and Implementation

    Author : Hongtu Jiang; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Signal processing; Bildbehandling; image processing; Imaging; Teknik; Technological sciences; Controller Synthesis; Circuit design; FPGA; Image convolution; Image processing; Video segmentation; Signalbehandling; Electronics; Elektronik;

    Abstract : With the increasing capacity in today's hardware system design enabled by technology scaling, image processing algorithms with substantially more complexity can be implemented in a single chip with real-time performance. Combined with the demand for low power consumption or larger resolution seen in many applications such as mobile devices and HDTV, new design methodologies and hardware architectures are constantly called for to bridge the gap between designers productivity and what the technology could offer.

  7. 5. MIMO Decoding Algorithm and Implementation

    Author : Zhan Guo; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Telecommunication engineering; Elektronik; Electronics; Signalbehandling; Signal processing; ASIC; VLSL; MIMO; Sphere Decoder; Telekommunikationsteknik; Electrical engineering; Elektroteknik;

    Abstract : Multi-Input Multi-Output system has been one of the hot technologies for future wireless communications, since it can increase the capacity (coverage or link quality in other senses) at no cost in frequency spectrum. This doctoral thesis investigates improvements to MIMO decoding algorithms and presents VLSI implementation results. READ MORE
