In array radar signalprocessing applications, the processing demands range from tens of GFLOPS to several TFLOPS. To address this, as well as the, size and power dissipation issues, a special purpose "array signalprocessing" architecture is proposed. We argue that a combined MIMD-SIMD system can give flexibility, scalability, and programmability as well as high computing density. The MIMD system level, where SIMD modules are interconnected by a fiber-optic real-time network, provides the high level flexibility while the SIMD module level provides the compute density. In this paper we evaluate different design alternatives and show how the VEGA architecture was derived. By examining the applications and the algorithms used, the SIMD mesh processor is found be sufficient. However, the smaller the meshes are the better is the flexibility and efficiency. Then, based on prototype VLSI implementations and on instruction statistics, we find that a relatively large pipelined processing element maximises the performance per area. It is thereby concluded that the small SIMD mesh processor array with powerful processing elements is the best choice. These observations are further exploited in the design of the single-chip SIMD processor array to be included in the MIMD-style overall system. The system scales from 6.4 GFLOPS to several TFLOPS peak performance.

It is suggested that specified robustness criteria and the sensitivity requirement in multidimensional signalprocessing can be satisfied using a design based on concepts of passivity (including incremental passivity) and losslessness. The resulting algorithms represent what can be called discrete passive dynamical systems. The underlying principles are the same for multidimensional (MD) wave digital filters, and, adopting some plausible assumptions, it appears that there does not exist any other way to generate useful 1-D or MD discrete passive dynamical systems. A wide field of new applications has been opened up recently by applying these principles to numerical integration of partial differential equations. It is shown how the principles presented can be applied to various types of electrical partial differential equations (including Maxwell's equations) and to the partial differential equations of acoustics.< >

The mobile Internet has finally arrived with the sky-rocketing usage increase of HSPA. LTE, WiMAX and evolved WiFi are the upcoming wireless standards which are based on OFDM and MIMO. The mentioned standards have already started the evolution process with LTE-advanced, IEEE 802.16m and IEEE 802.11n. New technology building blocks are on its way like cooperative MIMO, relaying and self-organizing networks. Increase of data-rate is one target, but the energy consumption both on the terminal and network side are important as well. This paper discusses the challenges imposed by developments in the wireless industry. Advanced signalprocessing can play a major role in addressing these challenges.

The need for robust health monitoring and prognostics of structural components in remote or difficult-to-access locations, e.g. helicopter rotor-head structure, is driving the advancement of wireless intelligent sensor devices (WISD). Damage detection techniques, combined with advanced signalprocessing, are the core components of a structural health monitoring (SHM) system. In this context, feature extraction is an essential component of a SHM system that converts raw sensor data into useful information about the structure health condition. The level of signalprocessing that can be performed in a WISD depends on the capability of the processing element in terms of speed, memory and energy consumption. But the real bottleneck for energy efficiency is the fact that communications dominate the WISD energy consumption. Therefore, running intelligent local data interrogation algorithms on-board the WISD is a mechanism through which considerable battery power can be preserved. In that sense, in this paper a soft histogram feature extraction algorithm is developed to extract damage-sensitive information from measured response data of tie-bar component of the main rotor hub of a Lynx helicopter. In addition, a method for pattern recognition and critical degradation detection of tie-bar is proposed based on the extracted features and a combination of statistical process control and fuzzy sets theory. Results show the applicability of the proposed approaches.

Grover's Adaptative Search (GAS) algorithm combined with the High Order Binary Optimization (HOBO) oracle proposal is currently the Fault Tolerant Quantum Computer (FTQC)'s main algorithm to solve binary optimization problems. In this paper, we propose a new way to obtain the Grover's oracle needed which is costless in terms of gates and ancilla qubits. This oracle proposal also has zero additional costs linked to decimal numbers of the problem weights and a very small overcost due to high order problems with respect to the other proposals. Nevertheless, it cannot be easily adapted to constrained problems. This new oracle is based on a completely different approach, which uses Quantum signalprocessing (QSP) techniques and amplitude encoding. This method can also be described in the Quantum Singular Value Transformation (QSVT) framework as a variant of eigenstate search algorithms. Our oracle combines the benefits of both the QSVT amplitude encoding of the problem and GAS strategies to seek eigenvalues.

A method for solving a class of 2-D interpolation problems is presented. The method is not restricted to uniform interpolation points and has the attractive features of recursive computability and permanence of the solution. By combining two different approaches to the problem, the authors obtained the LU decomposition of the interpolation matrix without having to check the nonsingularity of submatrices. This decomposition gives the computational advantage of reducing the original problem to the solution of two triangular systems. The method can be used for the design of 1-D and 2-D FIR (finite-impulse response) filters.< >

This paper first introduces the direct method of classical power spectrum estimation, and then proposes two improved classical power spectrum estimation methods: Welch Method and MultiTaper (MTM) Method. Then the Maximum Entropy Spectral Estimation (based on Burg) in parametric spectral estimation is introduced. Then the power spectrum is extended in the spatial domain, and two kinds of spatial spectrum estimation methods, MUSIC Method and ESPRIT method, and their improved algorithms are introduced. All of the above methods have been simulated in Matlab environment. We have compared various spectrum estimation methods in detail, and analyzed and summarized their respective advantages and disadvantages. Finally, the paper points out the shortcomings of current power spectrum estimation and the future development direction.

The emphasis was to develop an architecture that can support a distributed implementation while maintaining a bound on the nontransparent overhead. The solution partitions the software functions in correspondence with the hardware modules within a processing Element. Thus the use of rotating memory sections permits concurrent inputting of new data, processing of current data, and outputting of previous data. A specific example illustrates the design features.

Space time adaptive processing (STAP) has been identified as a key enabling technology for the detection of small targets in the presence of severe clutter and jamming. It is therefore important to develop simulation and analysis tools which accurately model advanced STAP architectures in realistic operational environments and to evaluate evolving system technologies prior to large development programs. This paper describes a user-friendly simulation capability, developed under the ARPA Mountaintop program, which can be used to assess the performance of evolving adaptive processing technologies for advanced airborne surveillance systems.
