Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / In general, profiling sensors are low-cost crude imagers that typically utilize a sparse detector array, whereas traditional cameras employ a dense focal-plane array. Profiling sensors are of particular interest in applications that require classification of a sensed object into broad categories, such as human, animal, or vehicle. However, profiling sensors have many other applications in which reliable classification of a crude silhouette or profile produced by the sensor is of value. The notion of a profiling sensor was first realized by a Near-Infrared (N-IR), retro-reflective prototype consisting of a vertical column of sparse detectors. Alternative arrangements of detectors have been implemented in which a subset of the detectors have been offset from the vertical column and placed at arbitrary locations along the anticipated path of the objects of interest. All prior work with the N-IR, retro-reflective profiling sensors has consisted of wired detectors. This thesis surveys prior work and advances this work with a wireless profiling sensor prototype in which each detector is a wireless sensor node and the aggregation of these nodes comprises a profiling sensor’s field of view. In this novel approach, a base station pre-processes the data collected from the sensor nodes, including data realignment, prior to its classification through a back-propagation neural network. Such a wireless detector configuration advances deployment options for N-IR, retro-reflective profiling sensors.

Modern wireless mobile communication technology has made noticeable improvements from the technologies in the past but is still plagued by poor power efficiency of power amplifiers found in today’s base stations. One of the factors that affect the power efficiency adversely comes from modern modulation techniques like orthogonal frequency division multiplexing which result in signals with high peak to average power ratio, also known as the crest factor. Crest factor reduction algorithms are used to solve this problem. However, the dominant method of hardware description for synthesis has been to start with writing register transfer level code which gives a very fixed implementation that may not be the optimal solution. This thesis project is focused on developing a peak cancellation crest factor reduction system, using a high-level language as the system design language, and synthesizing it using high-level synthesis. The aim is to find out if highlevel synthesis design methodology can yield increased productivity and improved quality of results for such designs as compared to the design methodology that requires the system to be implemented at the register transfer level. Design space exploration is performed to find an optimal design with respect to area. Finally, a few parameters are presented to measure the performance of the system, which helps in tuning it. The results of design space exploration helped in choosing the best possible implementation out of four different configurations. The final implementation that resulted from high-level synthesis had an area comparable to the previous register transfer level implementation. It was also concluded that, for this design, the high-level synthesis design methodology increased productivity and decreased design time. / Användning av högnivåsyntes för reduktion av toppfaktor Det har gjorts noterbara framsteg inom modern trådlös kommunikationsteknik för mobiltelefoni, men tekniken plågas fortfarande av dålig energieffektivitet hos förstärkarna i dagens basstationer. En faktor som påverkar energieffektiviteten negativt är om signaler har en stor skillnad mellan maximal effekt och medeleffekt. Kvoten mellan maximal effekt och medeleffekt kallas för toppfaktor, och en egenskap hos moderna moduleringstekniker, såsom ortogonal frekvensdelningsmodulering, är att de har en hög toppfaktor. Algoritmer för reducering av toppfaktor kan lösa det problemet. Den dominerande metoden för design av hårdvara är att skriva kod i ett hårdvarubeskrivande språk med abstraktionsnivån Register Transfer Level och sedan använda verktyg för att syntetisera hårdvara från koden. Resultatet är en specifik implementation som inte nödvändigtvis är den optimala lösningen. Det här examensarbetet är inriktat på att utveckla ett system för reducering av toppfaktor, baserat på algoritmen Peak Cancellation, genom att skriva kod i ett högnivåspråk och använda verktyg för högnivåsyntes för att syntetisera designen. Syftet är att ta reda på om högnivåsyntes som designmetod kan ge ökad produktivitet och ökad kvalitet, för den här typen av design, jämfört med den klassiska designmetoden med abstraktionsnivån Register Transfer Level. Verktyget för högnivåsyntes användes för att på ett effektivt sätt undersöka olika designalternativ för att optimera kretsytan. I rapporten presenteras ett antal parametrar för att mäta prestandan hos systemet, vilket ger information som kan användas för finjustering. Resultatet av undersökningen av designalternativ gjorde det möjligt att välja den bästa implementationen bland fyra olika konfigurationer. Den slutgiltiga implementationen hade en kretsyta som är jämförbar med en tidigare design som implementerats med hårdvarubeskrivande språk med abstraktionsnivån Register Transfer Level. En annan slutsats är att, för den här designen, så gav designmetoden med högnivåsyntes ökad produktivitet och minskad designtid.

The databsae of accoustical recordings is a web-based application, which is accessible with an usual web browser. There were used technologies, that are ussually used in web applications. This ensures, that the application is open for using by wide range of users. The application enables uploading WAWE files to the server and allows the user to add various description of the recordings. The application allows also comparing the quality of recordings, which were processed with some method for highlighting the accoustical signal from noise. This function is established by listening tests, which are open for every user, who wants to join the tests.
