An application specific integrated design using Quadrature Linear Discriminant Analysis is proposed for automatic detection of normal and epilepsy seizure signals from EEG recordings in epilepsy patients. Five statistical parameters are extracted to form the feature vector for training of the classifier. The statistical parameters are Standardised Moment, Co-efficient of Variance, Range, Root Mean Square Value and Energy. The Intellectual Property Core performs the process of filtering, segmentation, extraction of statistical features and classification of epilepsy seizure and normal signals. The design is implemented in Zynq 7000 Zc706 SoC with average accuracy of 99%, Specificity of 100%, F1 score of 0.99, Sensitivity of 98% and Precision of 100 % with error rate of 0.0013/hr., which is approximately zero false detection.

This paper presents a design method of high-speed digital comparators on FPGA/SoC by means of hierarchical structures. A synthesis technique of hierarchical structures for comparators is offered. In this technique, the comparator best hierarchical structure is empirically found for a certain FPGA family. The proposed method allows reducing a delay for 256-bits comparators by 1.245 to 2.516 times as compared with a traditional approach, and for 512-bits comparators by 3.399 times. The method also allows reducing an area by 40.2% on occasion.

We presents the design and test results of a picosecond-precision time interval measurement module, integrated as a System-on-Chip in an FPGA device. Implementing a complete measurement instrument of a high precision in one chip with the processing unit gives an opportunity to cut down the size of the final product and to lower its cost. Such approach challenges the constructor with several design issues, like reduction of voltage noise, propagating through power lines common for the instrument and processing unit, or establishing buses efficient enough to transport mass measurement data. The general concept of the system, design hierarchy, detailed hardware and software solutions are presented in this article. Also, system test results are depicted with comparison to traditional ways of building a measurement instrument.

The paper describes a design environment for development of precise time counters. The design was implemented in a System-on-Chip Zynq from Xilinx as an embedded solution with a custom user interface. The paper presents the system design, a dedicated time counter interface, and software running on the processing part of the Zynq device. It also contains the results of all system performance tests. The tests reveal the design advantages over the traditional approach, involving an FPGA device connected to a PC that serves as a host with a dedicated user interface. The presented development environment allowed reducing the calibration and measurement times twofold and threefold, respectively. Furthermore, thanks to the bus interface designed for data transmission from the time counter to the control module, the 200 MB/s data throughput inside the SoC was achieved.

This brief proposes a novel architecture of the chaotic pseudo-random bit generators (PRBGs) based on the chaotic nonlinear model and pipelined data processing. We investigated PRBG built on the chaotic logistic map and frequency dependent negative resistances (FDNR). A significant enhancement in terms of output throughput has been achieved by combining the advantages of pipelining with post-processing based on fast logical operations like bit shifting and XOR. The proposed method has been implemented using programmable SoC Zynq device from Xilinx. We verified output pseudo-random bit stream by standard statistical tests NIST SP800-22. We also present detailed comparison of the proposed post-processing method with the methods reported previously by the other authors. In particular, we compared the maximum output throughput and amount of total logical resources required by PRBG implementation in the programmable SoC device. For PRBGs based on the logistic chaotic map and frequency dependent negative resistance (FDNR) we obtained speed-up factors equal to 33% and 14%, respectively. By composing the output stream of 3 data channels in PRBG with FDNR element, we get the maximum throughput equal to 38.43 Gbps. That is significantly greater comparing to the chaotic PRBGs described so far.

The following paper describes an application of reconfigurable hardware architectures for processing of huge data streams. Radar, sonar and high speed internet networks are typical sources of data that require extreme computing power and resources to enable real time acquisition, processing and management. An approach to monitoring of real time multi-gigabit internet network has been described as a practical application of FPGA based board, designed for fast data processing.

W niniejszej pracy przedstawiono generator opisów VHDL potokowych bloków operacyjnych działających w arytmetyce ułamkowej (RFA) i przeznaczonych do implementacji w nowoczesnych układach FPGA, mających wbudowane bloki mnożące i/lub DSP. Badania autorów świadczą o mniejszej złożoności sprzętowej jednostek arytmetycznych RFA, wykonujących operacje dodawania i/lub mnożenia i/lub dzielenia w porównaniu z analogicznymi jednostkami operującymi na liczbach stałoprzecinkowych (przy zachowaniu wymaganej dokładności i wydajności obliczeń). Podstawowymi parametrami generatora są: rodzaj operacji arytmetycznej, szerokość danych wejściowych i wyjściowych oraz liczba stopni w potoku.

In this paper, the IP-core generator is proposed, which produces the VHDL description of the arithmetic units operating in rational fraction arithmetic (RFA). Due to RFA, the hardware complexity of the new arithmetic units, which must perform for example the addition or multiplication or division operations, is much lower in comparison with complexity of the similar fixed-point arithmetic units (with the same precision and performance). The architectures of the target RFA units are pipelined and are adapted to the internal structure of the modern reconfigurable devices (like to Xlinx Virtex 4 or Altera Sratix II devices), and use the built-in 18-bit multipliers or DSP blocks. The main tuned parameters of the proposed soft-generator are the type of arithmetic operation, for example addition, multiplication, division, square rooting, RFA to fixed-point format conversion (see tab. 2), the input and output data width, as well as the number of the pipeline stages in the target arithmetic unit.
