    Wireless sensor network (WSN) is commonly used for localization applications. Through sniffing receive signal strength indicator (RSSI) in WSN system, localization and connection to access point highest RSSI can be done automatically. In this paper, we propose Raspberry-Pi (RasPi), based best access point selection method utilizing RSSI metric. The RasPi brings the advantages of a personal computer (PC) to the domain of sensor network, which makes it the perfect platform for interfacing with a wide variety of external peripherals. This work aims to investigate various source codes deployed on RasPi for localization purpose by sniffing the RSSI metric. Consequently, comparative analysis of its key elements and performances with some of the currently available wireless sensor nodes have shown that despite few disadvantages, RasPi remains an inexpensive single board computer (SBC) which has been used very successfully in sensor network domain and diverse range of research applications.

    The Optimal Link State Routing (OLSR) protocol employs multipoint relay (MPR) nodes to disseminate topology control (TC) messages, enabling network topology discovery and maintenance. However, this approach increases control overhead and leads to wasted network bandwidth in stable topology scenarios due to fixed flooding periods. To address these challenges, this paper presents an Efficient Topology Maintenance Algorithm (ETM-OLSR) for Enhanced Link-State Routing Protocols. By reducing the number of MPR nodes, TC message generation and forwarding frequency are minimized. Furthermore, the algorithm selects a smaller subset of TC messages based on the changes in the MPR selection set from the previous cycle, adapting to stable and fluctuating network conditions. Additionally, the sending cycle of TC messages is dynamically adjusted in response to network topology changes. Simulation results demonstrate that the ETM-OLSR algorithm effectively reduces network control overhead, minimizes end-to-end delay, and improves network throughput compared to traditional OLSR and HTR-OLSR algorithms.

    Implementation and analysis of GMM-based speaker identification on FPGA
    ( 2012)
    Phak Len Al Eh Kan
    The use of highly accurate identification systems is required in today’s society. Existing systems such as pin numbers and passwords can be forgotten or forged easily and they are no longer considered to offer a high level of security. The use of biological features (biometrics) is becoming widely accepted as the next level for security systems. One of the biometric is the human voice and it leads to the task of speaker identification. Speaker identification is the process of determining whether a speaker exists in a group of known speakers and identifying the speaker within the group. Speaker specific characteristics exist in speech signals due to different speakers having different resonances of the vocal tract. These differences can be exploited by extracting Mel-frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs) from the speech signal. A statistical modelling process known as Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) is used to model the distribution of each speaker’s MFCCs in a multi-dimensional acoustic space. GMM involves with two phases called training and classification. The training phase is complex and is better suited for implementation in software. The classification phase is well suited for implementation in hardware and this allows for real time processing of multiple voice streams on large population sizes. Several innovative techniques are demonstrated which enable hardware system to obtain two orders of magnitude speed up over software while maintaining comparable levels of accuracy. A speedup factor of eighty six is achieved on hardware-based FPGA compared to a software implementation on a standard PC for this approach.

    Vehicle Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) have become a viable technology to improve traffic flow and safety on the roads. Due to its effectiveness and scalability, the Wingsuit Search-based Optimised Link State Routing Protocol (WS-OLSR) is frequently used for data distribution in VANETs. However, the selection of MultiPoint Relays (MPRs) plays a pivotal role in WS-OLSR’s performance. This paper presents an improved MPR selection algorithm tailored to WS-OLSR, designed to enhance the overall routing efficiency and reduce overhead. The analysis found that the current OLSR protocol has problems such as redundancy of HELLO and TC message packets or failure to update routing information in time, so a WS-OLSR routing protocol based on improved-MPR selection algorithm was proposed. Firstly, factors such as node mobility and link changes are comprehensively considered to reflect network topology changes, and the broadcast cycle of node HELLO messages is controlled through topology changes. Secondly, a new MPR selection algorithm is proposed, considering link stability issues and nodes. Finally, evaluate its effectiveness in terms of packet delivery ratio, end-to-end delay, and control message overhead. Simulation results demonstrate the superior performance of our improved MR selection algorithm when compared to traditional approaches.

    Limitations in capacity of internal memory chips on embedded systems lead to the usage of external memories especially when processing large amount of data as images or videos. FPGAs as embedded system devices used in different signal processing applications require extra memory for data storage. Current attempts in programming Secure Digital (SD) cards as external memories attached to FPGAs came with utilization of aiding application or of shelf tools which consumes large amount of chip clock cycles and reduce the overall performance. In this paper, a hardware implementation of SD card programming is presented by using pure and standalone VHDL code with high programming flexibility. In addition, High-Capacity SD cards (SDHC) are implemented for maximum storage capacity to handle large amount of data.

    Implementing deep learning technology with FPGA as an accelerator has become a popular application due to its efficiency and performance. However, given the tremendous data generated on medical diagnosis, normal inference speed is not sufficient. Hence, the FPGA technology is implemented for fast inference. In this context, the FPGA accelerates the deep learning inference process for fast breast cancer classification with minimal latency on real-time deployment. This paper summarizes the findings of model deployment across various computing devices in deep learning technology with FPGA. The study includes model performance evaluation, throughput, and latency comparison with different batch sizes to the extent of expected delay for real-world deployment. The result concludes that FPGA is the most suitable to act as a deep learning inference accelerator with a high throughput-to-latency ratio and fast parallel inference.

    In essence, Network-on-Chip (NoC) also known as on-chip interconnection network has been proposed as a design solution to System-on-Chip (SoC). The routing algorithm, topology and switching technique are significant because of the most influential effect on the overall performance of Network-on-Chip (NoC). Designing of large scale topology alongside the support of deadlock free, low latency, high throughput and low power consumption is notably challenging in particular with expanding network size. This paper proposed an 8x8 XX-Torus and 64 nodes XX-Ring topology schemes for Network-on-Chip to minimize the latency by decrease the node diameter from the source node to destination node. Correspondingly, we compare in differences on the performance of mesh, full-mesh, torus and ring topologies with XX-Torus and XX-Ring topologies in term of latency. Results show that XX-Ring outperforms the conventional topologies in term of latency. XX-Ring decreases the average latency by 106.28%, 14.80%, 6.7 1%, 1.73%, 442.24% over the mesh, fully-mesh, torus, XX-torus, and Ring topologies.
