Hardware Realization of Biological Mechanisms Using VHDL and FPGAs

Botros N., Akaaboune M., Alghazo J., Alhreish M., Southern Illinois University, US

In this paper we present a hardware realization of a simplified blood-pressure regulation mechanism. The mechanism has been proposed and then modeled by using Hardware Description Language (VHDL). After verifying the simulation results, Computer Aided [...]

Compact Models for Smart Pixels with Smart Illumination

Subramanian Y., Azadeh M., Darling R.B., University of Washington, US

Smart Pixels with Smart Illumination (SPSI) is a recently developed technology that enables the monolithic integration of two functionalities-optical illumination and detection- into arrays of optoelectronic ‘pixels’ in a compact and robust manner. To facilitate [...]

A Synthesizable Low Power VHDL Model of the Exact Solution of Three Dimensional Hyperbolic Positioning System

Bucher R., Misra D., New Jersey Center for Wireless and Telecommunication, US

This paper presents a synthesizable low power VHDL model of a three-dimensional hyperbolic positioning system algorithm. The algorithm derives the equations needed to obtain an exact solution for the three dimensional location of a mobile [...]

A FEM Based Network Approach for the Simulation of Miniaturized Electromagnetic Devices

Gollee R., Gerlach G., Dresden University of Technology, DE

The paper proposes a new computational approach for analyzing miniaturized electromagnetic devices. This approach is based on a general structure of an equivalent network for the coupled electromagnetic problem. It enables automated derivation of the [...]

Electromechanical Analysis of Micromechanical SOI-Fabricated RF Resonators

Lamminmäki T., Ruokonen K., Tittonen I., Mattila T., Jaakkola O., Oja A., Seppä H., Seppälä P., Seppälä P., Kiihamäki J., Helsinki University of Technology, FI

In this paper, finite element method (FEM) simulations are used to model mechanical properties of MEMS resonators. Using a static displacement analysis the effective spring constant and mass are calculated. Non-linearity of the mechanical restoring [...]

Techniques for Coupled Circuit and Micromechanical Simulation

Chen J., Kang S-M, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, US

This paper details advanced simulation techniques for efficiently determining system behavior of integrated microsystems that contains both circuit elements and micromechanical ones. Techniques for building reduced-order dynamical models for coupled energy domain non-liner (both weakly [...]
