A new method on the hardware implementation of multi-channel Finite Impulse Response(FIR) digital filter using vector multiplication structure is proposed. The proposed method can reduce the complexity of hardware structure and improve execution speed. The frequency response of four channel digital filter implemented by the above method is quite agreeable with the frquency response simulated by Remez method.

In FIR (Finite Impulse Response) filter applications, Nth-band FIR digital filters are known to be important due to their reduced computational requirements. The conventional methods for designing FIR filters use iterative approaches such as the well-known Parks-Mcclellan algorithm. the Parks-Mcclellan algorithm is also used to design Nth-band FIR digital filters. But a disadvantage of the Parks-McClellan algorithm Is that it needs a good amount of design time. This paper describes a direct design method for third-band FIR Filters using Chebyshev polynomial, which provide a reduction in design time over indirect methods such as the Parks-McClellan algorithm. The response of the resulting filter is equi-ripple in passband. The proposed method of design produces a passband response that is equi-ripple to within a minuscule error, compare to that of the Parks-McClellan algorithm.

In this research a signal processing system is designed for detecting the ultrasonic signal envelope using Xilinx's Zynq SoC(system on chip). As a design tool, Vivado IDE(integrated design environment) is used to hierarchically design the whole signal processing system. The proposed system consists of a Zynq-internal ADC, an FIR(finite impulse response) BPF(band pass filter), an absolute value calculator, an FIR LPF(lpw pass filter), and the Kalman filter. Under this configuration, two design schemes, HW design scheme with LPF as a final stage and HW/SW co-design scheme with a Kalman filter as a final stage, are compared in terms of the performance and efficiency. As a result, envelope detecting performances of the two schemes are proved to be almost same, but the HW/SW co-design is verified to be much more efficient than the HW design considering the much smaller time consumption during system design.

Air pollution has become a social issue. Particularly, interest in fine dust is increasing. Various kinds of sensors are being used to measure fine dust. The most commonly used infrared detection dust sensors operate by sensing the diffraction of light through an infrared receiver and sensing the light reflected by the dust in the air. However, this method has a drawback in which accurate data analysis is difficult due to deviation caused by the noise during measurement. In order to overcome such drawbacks, in this thesis, a low pass filter algorithm of FIR(Finite Impulse Response) filter was designed and implemented.

Filtering is necessary for the SRC(sample rate converter), that is used to change the sampling rate of a digital signal. The larger the conversion ratio of the sampling rate becomes, the more signal processing is needed for the filter, which means more complexity on realization. Thus it is important to reduce the amount of signal processing for the case of substantial conversion ratios. In this paper it is presented an efficient design method of a multistage FIR(finite impulse response) filter, with which the rate conversion occurs in stages rather than in one step. In this method, filter searching is performed exhaustively over all possible factorization of the conversion ratio, and also the filter complexity is measured based on direct realization rather than on estimation. It has been shown a designed multistage filter to have a less number of multiplications for filtering operation in comparison with a conventionally designed one. It has also been found that by allowing some variations of the filter architecture such as a halfband filter or a filter with multiple transition bands, the number of multiplications can be reduced further.

In this research the TOF (time of flight) of ultrasonic signal is measured using Xilinx's Zynq SoC (system on chip). The TOF is calculated from the difference between periods during which RF (radio frequency) and ultrasonic signals come across a distance, and then travelling distance is obtained by multiplying the TOF by the ultrasonic speed in the air. For this purpose, a ultrasonic pulse is generated from a Zynq's internal ADC, a FIR (finite impulse response) filter, and a Kalman filter. And a RF reference pulse is generated from a RF interface. Based on baremetal multiprocessing, the Kalman filter and the RF interface are c-programmed on Zynq's dual processor cores, with other components fabricated on Zynq's FPGA. With this HW/SW co-design, both lower resource utilization and much smaller designing period were obtained than the HW design. As a design tool, Vivado IDE(integrated design environment) is used to design the whole signal processing system in hierarchical block diagrams.

To realize the tap coefficient of a finite impulse response(FIR) filter or the twiddle factor of a fast Fourier transform(FFT) using a current-mode analog circuit, a high accurate current-attenuator circuit is needed This paper introduces an accuracy enhancement technique in the current-mode signal processing. First of all, the DC of set-current error in a conventional current-attenuator using a gate-ratioed orient mirror circuit is analyzed and then, the current-attenuator circuit with a negligibly small DC offset-current error is introduced. The circuit consists of N-output current mirrors connected in parallel with me another. The output current of the circuit is attenuated to 1/N of the input current. On the basis of the Kirchhoff current law, the current scale ratio is determined simply by the number of the current mirrors in the N-current mirrors connected in parallel. In the proposed current-attenuator circuit the scale accuracy is limited by the ac gain error of the current mirror. Considering that a current mirror has a negligibly small ac gain error, the attainable maximum scale accuracy is theoretically -80[dB] to the input current.

Fault detection and diagnosis (FDI) algorithms are actively being researched for ensuring the integrity and reliability of environment perception sensors in autonomous vehicles. In this paper, a fault detection algorithm based on a multi-sensor perception system composed of radar, camera, and lidar is proposed to guarantee the safety of an autonomous vehicle's perception system. The algorithm utilizes reference generation filters and residual generation filters based on finite impulse response (FIR) filter estimates. By analyzing the residuals generated from the filtered sensor observations and the estimated state errors of individual objects, the algorithm detects faults in the environment perception sensors. The proposed algorithm was evaluated by comparing its performance with a Kalman filter-based algorithm through numerical simulations in a virtual environment. This research could help to ensure the safety and reliability of autonomous vehicles and to enhance the integrity of their environment perception sensors.

The dynamic responses of a telescope loaded on an STSAT-3 satellite were analyzed, and environmental tests were conducted to verify the reliability of the design. The space use telescope COMIS (compact imaging spectrometer) is a major payload of the STSAT-3 launched on November 21, 2013. Vibration responses such as the acceleration, displacement, and velocity with respect to random vibration and shock impulse inputs were obtained based on theoretical fundamentals in conjunction with finite element analysis. The main focus of this study was on developing technology for accurate and/or favorable modeling and analysis of the structure and fitting the results to that of experiments. Cutting-edge technology for manipulating the vibrations of a space use telescope is suggested.
