Abstract We have designed and developed the digital correlation receiver for Mingantu Spectral Radioheliograph (MUSER). The MUSER digital correlation receiver is implemented to sample, channelise, and correlate a 400 MHz wide solar radio signal of 40-antenna output from MUSER intermediate-frequency array and 60-antenna output from MUSER high-frequency array. The polyphase filter channeliser is used for wide-band channelisation and proved to be efficient to realise narrow-band filtering ( ${\sim}25$ MHz) in a high-speed digital signal-processing pipeline (sampling rate ${\sim}1$ Gsps). All modules of the digital correlation receiver are implemented on FPGA-based hardware and integrated via high-speed backplane, which makes a well-performed and economical correlator system for MUSER array. The future upgrade is also addressed including spectral resolution enhancement and radio-frequency-interference excision.

The interface presented in this paper is recommended for high speed data acquisition systems; it performs a synchronized sampling of all common-mode or differential analog inputs with a high sampling rate. This is a low cost interface, entirely controlled by the PC104 CPU. Programmable electronic modules that contain such PC104 interfaces can be found running in the energetic system from Romania; these dedicated equipments perform the analog and digital signal acquisition for monitoring and recording different specific transient events. Some experimental results obtained using the disturbance monitoring device PC-08/104 are also presented in this paper.

Probability Of False Alarm

Compressive sensing (CS) technique is used to solve the problem of high sampling rate with wide band signal spectrum sensing where high speed analogue to digital converter is needed to do that. This leads to difficult hardware implementation, large time of sensing and detection with high consumptions power. The proposed approach combines energy-based detection, with CS compressive sensing and investigates the probability of detection, and the probability of false alarm as a function of the SNR, showing the effect of compression to spectrum sensing performance of cognitive radio system. The Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) is used as a sparse representation basis of the received signal, and random matrix as a compressive matrix. The 𝓁1 norm algorithm is used to reconstruct the original signal. A closed form of probability of detection and probability of false alarm are derived. Computer simulation shows clearly that the compression ratio, recovery error and SNR level affect the probability of detection.

AbstractThe Chinese Spectral Radioheliograph is a solar dedicated radio interferometric array that will produce high spatial resolution, high temporal resolution, and high spectral resolution images of the Sun simultaneously in decimetre and centimetre wave range. Digital processing of intermediate frequency signal is an important part in a radio telescope. This paper describes a flexible and high-speed digital down conversion system for the CSRH by applying complex mixing, parallel filtering, and extracting algorithms to process IF signal at the time of being designed and incorporates canonic-signed digit coding and bit-plane method to improve program efficiency. The DDC system is intended to be a subsystem test bed for simulation and testing for CSRH. Software algorithms for simulation and hardware language algorithms based on FPGA are written which use less hardware resources and at the same time achieve high performances such as processing high-speed data flow (1 GHz) with 10 MHz spectral resolution. An experiment with the test bed is illustrated by using geostationary satellite data observed on March 20, 2014. Due to the easy alterability of the algorithms on FPGA, the data can be recomputed with different digital signal processing algorithms for selecting optimum algorithm.

Background: With the growing demand of image processing and the use of Digital Signal Processors (DSP), the efficiency of the Multipliers and Accumulators has become a bottleneck to get through. We revised a few patents on an Application Specific Instruction Set Processor (ASIP), where the design considerations are proposed for application-specific computing in an efficient way to enhance the throughput. Objective: The study aims to develop and analyze a computationally efficient method to optimize the speed performance of MAC. Methods: The work presented here proposes the design of an Application Specific Instruction Set Processor, exploiting a Multiplier Accumulator integrated as the dedicated hardware. This MAC is optimized for high-speed performance and is the application-specific part of the processor; here it can be the DSP block of an image processor while a 16-bit Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) processor core gives the flexibility to the design for any computing. The design was emulated on a Xilinx Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and tested for various real-time computing. Results: The synthesis of the hardware logic on FPGA tools gave the operating frequencies of the legacy methods and the proposed method, the simulation of the logic verified the functionality. Conclusion: With the proposed method, a significant improvement of 16% increase in throughput has been observed for 256 steps iterations of multiplier and accumulators on an 8-bit sample data. Such an improvement can help in reducing the computation time in many digital signal processing applications where multiplication and addition are done iteratively.

Displacement Sensors

Non-contact rotor position sensors are an essential part of control systems in magnetically suspended high-speed drives. In typical active magnetic bearing (AMB) levitated high-speed machine applications, the displacement of the rotor in the mechanical air gap is measured with commercially available eddy current-based displacement sensors. The aim of this paper is to propose a robust and compact three-dimensional position sensor that can measure the rotor displacement of an AMB system in both the radial and axial directions. The paper presents a sensor design utilizing only a single unified sensor stator and a single shared rotor mounted target piece surface to achieve the measurement of all three measurement axes. The sensor uses an inductive measuring principle to sense the air gap between the sensor stator and rotor piece, which makes it robust to surface variations of the sensing target. Combined with the sensor design, a state of the art fully digital signal processing chain utilizing synchronous in-phase and quadrature demodulation is presented. The feasibility of the proposed sensor design is verified in a closed-loop control application utilizing a 350-kW, 15,000-r/min high-speed industrial induction machine with magnetic bearing suspension. The inductive sensor provides an alternative solution to commercial eddy current displacement sensors. It meets the application requirements and has a robust construction utilizing conventional electrical steel lamination stacks and copper winding.

The study aimed to investigate the acute effects of handheld loading on standing broad jump (SBJ) performance and biomechanics. Fifteen youth male athletes (mean age: 14.7 ± 0.9 years; body mass: 59.3 ± 8.0 kg; height: 1.73 ± 0.07 m) volunteered to participate in the study. Participants were assigned to perform SBJ with and without 4 kg dumbbells in a random order. Kinematic and kinetic data were collected using 10 infrared high-speed motion-capture cameras at a 250 Hz sampling rate and two force platforms at a 1000 Hz sampling rate. A paired t-test was applied to all variables to determine the significance between loading and unloading SBJs. Horizontal distance (p < 0.001), take-off distance (p = 0.001), landing distance (p < 0.001), horizontal velocity of center of mass (CoM; p < 0.001), push time (p < 0.001), vertical impulse (p = 0.003), and peak horizontal and vertical ground reaction force (GRF; p < 0.001, p = 0.017) were significantly greater in loading SBJ than in unloading SBJ. The take-off vertical velocity of CoM (p = 0.001), take-off angle (p < 0.001), peak knee and hip velocity (p < 0.001, p = 0.007), peak ankle and hip moment (p = 0.006, p = 0.011), and peak hip power (p = 0.014) were significantly greater in unloading SBJ than in loading SBJ. Conclusions: Acute enhancement in SBJ performance was observed with handheld loading. The present findings contribute to the understanding of biomechanical differences in SBJ performance with handheld loading and are highly applicable to strength and conditioning training for athletes.
