However, implementing an EOS system on a chip is complex and needs full verifications. This paper introduces our design of Hardware/Software co-verification platform for EOS design. The hardware platform contains a microprocessor board and an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array)-based verification board, and the corresponding software includes test benches running in FPGAs, controlling programs for the microprocessor and a console program with GUI (Graphical User Interface) interface for configuration, management and supervision. The design is cost-effective and has been successfully employed to verify several IP (Intellectual Property) blocks of our EOS chip. Moreover, it is flexible and can be applied as a general-purpose verification platform.展开更多

The prosthetic hand was designed with simplicity, lightweight and dexterity on the requirement of anthropomorphic hands. Underactuated self-adaptive theory was adopted to decrease the number of motors and weight. The control part of the prosthetic hand was based on a surface EMG motion pattern classifier which combines LM-based (Levenberg-Marquardt) neural network with the parametric AR (autoregressive) model. This motion pattern classifier can successfully identify the flexions of the thumb, the index finger and the middle finger by measuring the surface EMG signals through two electrodes mounted on the flexor digitorum profundus and flexor pollicis longus. Furthermore, via continuously controlling a single finger's motion, the five-fingered underactuated prosthetic hand can achieve more prehensile postures such as power grasp, centralized grip, fingertip grasp, cylindrical grasp, etc. The experimental results show that the classifier has a great potential application to the control of bionic man-machine systems because of its fast learning speed, high recognition capability and strong robustness.展开更多

Low cost is an essential requirement for mBS baseband in UDN. Digital baseband cost of ASIC/ASIP (Application Specific Integrated Circuit / Instruction-set processor) is of the most uncertainty in roBS system. However. the actual costs and hardware feasibility of the baseband are yet unknown to network deployers and researchers. In this paper, we studied the baseband hardware system design and implementation for low-cost roBS. We analyzed popular baseband algorithms and architectures for both full-digital and hybrid beamforming (BF) for UDN. We then proposed feasible chip-level solutions for the baseband with up to 128-antenna BS system, and estimated their implementation cost. Results show that among lull-digital BF algorithms, zero-forcing is a choice of high performance and low cost; for hybrid BF, 4×32 architecture (32 RF chains) provides good reduction in baseband cost with acceptable performance loss, thus it can be a preferable solution under low cost consider- ation. The proposed system planning method can also be used for the design of other related systems.展开更多

Millimeter size rotational actuators are fabricated by combining MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical System) technology and shape memory alloy based artificial muscle wires. The actuator is composed of a pair of disk rotators and each rotor is suspended by four artificial muscle wires that are connected to the silicon frame. The rotational motion is generated by flowing the electrical current to each wire successively. Two actuators of different sizes are fabricated. The large actuator shows the displacement of 0.5 mm at the cycle time of 4 s. The small actuator shows 0.3 mm at 2 s. For controlling the actuator, the hardware neural networks are used. The hardware neural networks are composed of electrical circuits imitating cell bodies, excitatory synapses and inhibitory synapses. Four signal ports are extracted from four pairs of excitatory and inhibitory neurons and they are connected to the actuator. The small actuator is applied to the robot and built in the mid body of the robot. The shaft of the actuator is connected to the link mechanisms that transform the rotational motion to the locomotion. The appearance dimensions of the robot are 4.0, 2.7, 2.5 mm width, length and height. The robot performs forward and backward foot step like insects. The speed is 26.4 mm·min^-1 and the stepping width is 0.88 mm. Also, the robot changes the direction by external trigger pulses.展开更多

The proposed controller is modular, flexible, intelligent, inexpensive, portable, adaptive and designed to positively contribute in low voltage microgrids in which the lines R/X ratio is greater than the transmission lines. Therefore, the proposed control strategy is developed for operation in distribution lines. The controller strategy is different from the conventional grid-connected inverters which are designed based on transmission line characteristics. This controller, using a Texas Instrument general purpose DSP (digital signal processor), is programmed and tuned using MATLAB/SIMULINK in order to enhance self-healing, reliability and stability of the grid. This general purpose controller makes proper decisions using its local measurements as the primary source of data. The controller has the capability of communicating with the adjacent controllers and sharing the information if/when needed. The power flow output of the inverter is tested for both islanded and grid-connected modes of operation. The inverter positively contributes to active and reactive power supply while operating in grid-connected mode. The proposed control method has been implemented on a Texas Instrument DSC (digital signal controller) chip and tested on a hardware test bench at the Alternative Energy Laboratory at WVU1T (West Virginia University Institute of Technology). The system's experimental results veri~ the validity and efficiency of the proposed controller.展开更多
