In this paper, we propose a digital twin (DT)-based user-centric approach for processing sensing data in an integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) system. The considered scenario involves an ISAC device with a lightweight deep neural network (DNN) and a mobile edge computing (MEC) server with a large DNN. After collecting sensing data, the ISAC device either processes the data locally or uploads them to the server for higher-accuracy data processing. To cope with data drifts, the server updates the lightweight DNN when necessary, referred to as continual learning. Our objective is to minimize the long-term average computation cost of the MEC server by jointly optimizing two decisions, i.e., sensing data offloading and sensing data selection for the DNN update. A DT of the ISAC device is constructed to predict the impact of potential decisions on the long-term computation cost of the server, based on which the decisions are made with closed-form formulas. Experiments on executing DNN-based human motion recognition tasks are conducted to demonstrate the outstanding performance of the proposed DT-based approach in computation cost minimization.

This paper proposes a highly supply voltage-scalable, low-power and compact-area temperature sensor, which satisfies the requirements for Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) and microprocessors hotspots monitoring. The proposed novel sensor structure employs diode-connected NMOS devices operating in sub-thresold, featuring different sizes, as sensing elements, in order to implement a proportional-to-absolute-temperature (PTAT) sensor output voltage. The proposed sensor does not require any additional biasing or start-up circuits and, since it mostly processes the signals generated by the sensing elements in the current domain, enables high supply voltage scalability. Furthermore, a low-cost 1-point temperature calibration algorithm can be employed for trimming the sensor sensitivity. The proposed sensor circuit was designed in a 130-nm CMOS process and its performance was verified through extensive simulations in the Cadence Virtuoso environment.

Accurate removal of brain tumors is always one of the most important challenges for surgeons, as the continuous change of the brain state after opening the skull and releasing the resulting pressure causes the tumor state to change. By registration of preoperative MR images on intraoperative ultrasound images, the extent of this change is estimated and a new image of the brain is created. The result shows the changes and shifts in the brain, and the surgeon removes the tumor based on this image. Image registration using new deep learning methods has attracted the attention of many researchers due to its high efficiency and accuracy. In this paper, the images of 22 male and female patients with grade 2 glioma tumors were used to evaluate the proposed method. MR images of the patients were taken before surgery, while ultrasound images were taken during surgery and after cranial incision. The deep network used in this paper to compensate for non-rigid changes is voxel morph. All images were fed to the pre-trained network in pairs, and the results are reported for each individual. The average error of all images for the proposed method is 3.56 ± 1.72. This shows the improvement in performance compared to the previous methods since in this work the landmarks were not used in training phase.

This paper presents a new CAN (Controller Area Network) receiver, which is suited for multi-bit communication. Two alternative designs are described. The former provides better performance in terms of threshold voltage accuracy and pulse width symmetry, the latter is optimized in terms of area, but provides worse results regarding all the other key parameters. In both receivers, flash analog-to-digital conversion is used, which is performed during the data transmission phase and gives 4 pulses at the output that can be converted to a binary representation by an encoder. During arbitration the receivers behave conventionally. A chip of the second design described was produced using a $0.18-{\mu} \mathrm{m}$ high voltage BCD technology. The circuit draws an average current of 5 mA from a 5-V supply.

Silicon amplifiers in D-Band are required to operate at high gain-bandwidth products and close to the cutoff frequency $f_{\max }$. Multi-stage amplifiers commonly employ stagger-tuning to meet the desired bandwidth, but with sub-optimal noise and linearity. Better performance is achieved with broadband inter-stage matching and gain progressively distributed among the stages. This work proposes a design flow for broadband matching networks approximating the response of a doubly-tuned transformer. The technique is applied to design a 3-stage D-band LNA in BiCMOS 55 nm technology. Measurements show 28 dB gain, 127-168 GHz bandwidth, NF down to 5.2 dB and >2dBm output compression point with 30 mA DC current from 2V supply. The performance compare favorably against previous works.

A medium access control (MAC) protocol design is proposed in this paper for next-generation industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) networks. Considering a nonfully connected network with multiple access points (APs), we aim to connect a massive number of IIoT devices densely populating the network and minimize the delay in channel access without packet collisions. To achieve this objective, we propose a device location-based medium access control design, which integrates scheduled access and carrier sensing. In our design, devices are assigned to time slots based on their locations, and the assignments are coordinated among APs to eliminate collisions while maximizing channel utilization. To analyze the performance of the proposed design, we derive the average delay each device experiences with the proposed scheduling scheme and verify our analysis via simulations of an IIoT network with 19 APs and over 17000 devices. The results show the effectiveness of the proposed design in supporting massive connections while at the same time achieving low delay.
