We describe a method of generating and utilizing visual landmarks that is well suited for SLAM applications. The landmarks created are highly distinctive and reliably detected, virtually eliminating the data association problem present in... more
One of the main goals of the HADES-at-FAIR upgrade project is to achieve sustained trigger rates of 20 kHz in the Au+Au heavy-ion collision system at energies up to 8 GeV/u. In this context, a fast and reliable data acquisition of the 24... more
After a brief discussion of the recent development of SiGe HBT technology, the state-of- the-art achievement of the technology in circuits implementation is reviewed from an applied perspective, focusing on microwave and mm-wave... more
Objective: To evaluate the performance of continuous and pulsed Doppler systems a test signal generator has been developed, simulating an ultrasound radio frequency signal, to be injected by induction into the front-end of an ultrasound... more
In the nanometer regime, especially the RF and analog circuits exhibit wide parameter variability, and consequently every chip produced needs to be tested. On-chip design for testability (DfT) features, which are meant to reduce test time... more
Abstract. This paper investigates the potential of recurrent spiking neurons for classification problems. It presents a hybrid approach based on the paradigm of Reservoir Computing. The practical applications based on recurrent spiking... more
Three-level NPC active-front-end three-phase (3LAFE) converters can be applied to high-power medium voltage applications, with 4-quadrant unity-power-factor operation, allowing a broad range for power conversion systems, such as... more
