This letter proposes a novel coordinate rotation digital computer (CORDIC)-based fast radix-2 algorithm for

computation of discrete cosine transformation (DCT). The proposed algorithm has some distinguish

advantages, such as Cooley-Tukey fast Fourier transformation (FFT)-like regular data flow, uniform post-

scaling factor, in-place computation and arithmetic-sequence rotation angles. Compared to existing DCT

algorithms, this proposed algorithm has lower computational complexity. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm

is highly scalable, modular, regular, and suitable for pipelined VLSI implementation. In addition, this letter also

provides an easy way to implement the reconfigurable or unified architecture for DCTs and inverse DCTs.

codes with

sidelobes

In miniaturized radars where power, real estate, speed and low cost are tight constraints and Doppler tolerance

is not a major concern biphase codes are popular and FIR filter is used for digital pulse compression (DPC)

implementation to achieve required range resolution. Disadvantage of low peak to sidelobe ratio (PSR) of

biphase codes can be overcome by linear programming for either single stage mismatched filter or two stage

approach i.e. matched filter followed by sidelobe suppression filter (SSF) filter. Linear programming (LP) calls

for longer filter lengths to obtain desirable PSR. Longer the filter length greater will be the number of

multipliers, hence more will be the requirement of logic resources used in the FPGAs and many time becomes

design challenge for system on chip (SoC) requirement. This requirement of multipliers can be brought down

by clustering the tap weights of the filter by kmeans clustering algorithm at the cost of few dB deterioration in

PSR. The cluster centroid as tap weight reduces logic used in FPGA for FIR filters to a great extent by reducing

number of weight multipliers. Since kmeans clustering is an iterative algorithm, centroid for weights cluster is

different in different iterations and causes different clusters. This causes difference in clustering of weights and

sometimes even it may happen that lesser number of multiplier and lesser length of filter provide better PSR.

presents the applicability of a FPGA system for speech processing. Here adaptive filtering technique is used for

noise cancellation in speech signal. Least Mean Squares (LMS ) , one of the widely used algorithm in many

signal processing environment , is implemented for adaption of the filter coefficients. The cancellation system is

implemented in VHDL and tested for noise cancellation in speech signal. The simulation of VHDL design of

adaptive filter is performed and analyzed on the basis of Signal to Noise ratio (SNR) and Mean Square Error

Based on

Algorithm

Based on fast FIR algorithms (FFAs), this brief proposes new parallel FIR filter architectures, which are

beneficial to symmetric convolutions of odd length in terms of the hardware cost. The proposed parallel FIR

architectures exploit the inherent nature of symmetric coefficients reducing half the number of multipliers in the

subfilter section at the expense of increase in adders in preprocessing and postprocessing blocks. Exchanging

multipliers with adders is advantageous because adders weigh less than multipliers in terms of silicon area, and

in addition, the overhead from the increase in adders in preprocessing and postprocessing blocks stay fixed, not

increasing along with the length of the FIR filter, whereas the number of reduced multipliers increases along

with the length of the FIR filter. For example, for a three-parallel 81-tap filter, the proposed structure saves 26

multipliers at the expense of five adders, whereas for a three-parallel 591-tap filter, the proposed structure saves

196 multipliers at the expense of five adders still. Overall, the proposed parallel FIR structures can lead to

significant hardware savings for symmetric convolution in odd length from the existing FFA parallel FIR filter,

particularly when the length of the filter is large.

Digital Signal Processing (DSP) systems involve a wide spectrum of DSP algorithms and their realizations are

on a variety of programmable signal processors or on application specific VLSI chips. This paper presents the

design of Adaptive Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter for moving target detection in various clutter conditions

in Radar Receiver. The design uses pipelined COordinate Rotation DIgital Computer (CORDIC) unit and

pipelined multiplier to get high system throughput and reduced latency in each of the pipelined stage. Saving

area on silicon substrate is essential to the design of any pipelined CORDIC. The area reduction in proposed

design can be achieved through optimization in the number of micro rotations. For better adaptation and

performance of Adaptive Filters and to minimize quantization error, the numbers of iterations are also optimized.

Approaches

Adaptive filters are used in a wide range of applications such as echo cancellation, noise cancellation, system

execution is needed. However, impulsive noise affects the proper operation of the filter and the adaptation

process. This noise is one of the most damaging types of signal distortion, not always considered when

implementing algorithms, particularly in specific hardware platforms. Fieldprogrammable gate arrays (FPGAs)

are used widely for real-time applications where timing requirements are strict. Nowadays, two main design

processes can be followed for embedded system design, namely, a hardware description language (e.g., VHDL)

and a high-level synthesis design tool. This paper proposes the FPGA implementation of an adaptive algorithm

that is robust to impulsive noise using these two approaches. Final comparison results are provided in order to

test accuracy, performance, and logic occupation.

The adaptive filter constitutes an important part of the statistical signal processing. Whenever there is a

requirement

to process signals that result from operation in an environment of unknown statistics, the use of an adaptive filter

offers an attractive solution to the problem as it usually provides a significant improvement in performance over

the use of a fixed filter designed by conventional methods. Furthermore, the use of adaptive filters provides new

signal-processing capabilities that would not be possible otherwise. We thus find that adaptive filters are

successfully applied in such diverse fields as communications, control, radar, sonar, seismology, and biomedical

engineering.

Non-uniform sampling has proven through different works, to be a better scheme than the uniform sampling to

sample low activity signals. With such signals, it generates fewer samples, which means less data to process and

lower power consumption. In addition, it is well-known that asynchronous logic is a low power technology. This

paper deals with the coupling between a non-uniform sampling scheme and an asynchronous design in order to

implement a digital Filter. This paper presents the first design of a micropipeline asynchronous FIR filter

Based on fast finite-impulse response (FIR) algorithms (FFAs), this paper proposes new parallel FIR filter

structures, which are beneficial to symmetric coefficients in terms of the hardware cost, under the condition that

the number of taps is a multiple of 2 or 3. The proposed parallel FIR structures exploit the inherent nature of

symmetric coefficients reducing half the number of multipliers in subfilter section at the expense of additional

adders in preprocessing and postprocessing blocks. Exchanging multipliers with adders is advantageous because

adders weigh less than multipliers in terms of silicon area; in addition, the overhead from the additional adders in

preprocessing and postprocessing blocks stay fixed and do not increase along with the length of the FIR filter,

whereas the number of reduced multipliers increases along with the length of the FIR filter. For example, for a

four-parallel 72-tap filter, the proposed structure saves 27 multipliers at the expense of 11 adders, whereas for a

four-parallel 576-tap filter, the proposed structure saves 216 multipliers at the expense of 11 adders still. Overall,

the proposed parallel FIR structures can lead to significant hardware savings for symmetric convolutions from

the existing FFA parallel FIR filter, especially when the length of the filter is large.

Homes

A framework for maintaining security & preserving privacy for analysis of sensor data from smart homes,

without compromising on data utility is presented. Storing the personally identifiable data as hashed values

withholds identifiable information from any computing nodes. However the very nature of smart

home data analytics is establishing preventive care. Data processing results should be identifiable to certain users

responsible for direct care. Through a separate encrypted identifier dictionary with hashed and actual values of

all unique sets of identifiers, we suggest re-identification of any data processing results. However the level of re-

identification needs to be controlled, depending on the type of user accessing the results. Generalization and

suppression on identifiers from the identifier dictionary before re-introduction could achieve different levels of

privacy preservation. In this paper we propose an approach to achieve data security & privacy through out

the complete data lifecycle:data generation/collection, transfer, storage, processing and sharing.

Earthquake science and emergency response require integration of many data types and models that cover a

broad range of scales in time and space. Timely and efficient earthquake analysis and response require

automated processes and a system in which the interfaces between models and applications are established and

well defined. Geodetic imaging data provide observations of crustal deformation from which strain accumulation

and release associated with earthquakes can be inferred.Data products are growing and tend to be either

relatively large in size, on the order of 1 GB per image with hundreds or thousands of images, or high data rate,

such as from 1 second GPS solutions. The products can be computationally intensive to manipulate, analyze, or

model, and are unwieldy to transfer across wide area networks. Required computing resources can be large, even

for a few users, and can spike when new data are made available or when an earthquake occurs. A cloud

computing environment is the natural extension for some components of QuakeSim as an increasing number

ofdata products and model applications become available to users. Storing the data near the model applications

improves performance for the user
