Abstract:
With the requirement to store and transmit information efficiently, an ever increasing number of uses of data compression techniques have been generated in diverse fields such as television, surveillance, remote sensing, medical processing, office automation, and robotics. Rapid increases in processing capabilities and the speed of complex integrated circuits make data compression techniques a prime candidate for application in the areas mentioned above. This report addresses, from a theoretical viewpoint, three major data compression techniques, Pixel Coding, Predictive Coding, and Transform Coding. It begins with a project description and continues with data compression techniques, focusing on Differential Pulse Code Modulation.

Increasing speed and complexity of guidance and target acquisition systems being developed for SDI missile interceptors mandate new performance standards for today's airborne telemetry systems. High bandwidth video data merged with a myriad of high sample rate analog and digital channels have pushed bit rates to 10 MBPS (Mega Bits Per Second) and beyond. These bit rates which are an order of magnitude beyond most telemetry systems in use today, result in the need for a new architecture which facilitates data transfer at these higher rates.

Abstract:
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / November 04-07, 1991 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada
Development of automated test equipment for an advanced telemetry system requires continuous monitoring of PCM data while exercising telemetry inputs. This requirements leads to a large amount of data that needs to be stored and later analyzed. For example, a data stream of 4 Mbits/s and a test time of thirty minutes would yield 900 Mbytes of raw data. With this raw data, information needs to be stored to correlate the raw data to the test stimulus. This leads to a total of 1.8 Gb of data to be stored and analyzed. There is no method to analyze this amount of data in a reasonable time. A data compression method is needed to reduce the amount of data collected to a reasonable amount. The solution to the problem was data reduction. Data reduction was accomplished by real time limit checking, time stamping, and smart software. Limit checking was accomplished by an eight state finite state machine and four compression algorithms. Time stamping was needed to correlate stimulus to the appropriate output for data reconstruction. The software was written in the C programming language with a DOS extender used to allow it to run in extended mode. A 94 - 98% compression in the amount of data gathered was accomplished using this method.

Abstract:
The work in this thesis investigates the properties of the IR diffuse wireless link with regard to: the use of sets of signature sequences with good message separation properties (hence providing low BER), the suitability of a hPIM-CDMA scheme for the IR diffuse wireless systems under the constraint of eye safety regulations (i.e. when all users are transmitting simultaneously), the quality of message separation due to multipath propagation. The suitability of current DS-CDMA systems using other modulation techniques are also investigated and compared with hPIM-CDMA for the performances in power efficiency, data throughput enhancement and error rate. A new algorithm has also been proposed for generating large sets of (n,3,1,1)OOC practically with reduced computation time. The algorithm introduces five conditions that are well refined and help in speeding up the code construction process. Results for elapsed computation times for constructing the codes using the proposed algorithm are compared with theory and show a significant achievement. The models for hPIM-CDMA and hPPM-CDMA systems, which were based on passive devices only, were also studied. The technique used in hPIM-CDMA, which uses a variable and shorter symbol duration, to achieve higher data throughput is presented in detail. An in-depth analysis of the BER performance was presented and results obtained show that a lower BER and higher data throughput can be achieved. A corrected BER expression for the hPPM-CDMA was presented and the justification for this detailed. The analyses also show that for DS-CDMA systems using certain sets of signature sequences, the BER performance cannot be approximated by a Gaussian function.

Abstract:
Voice-over-IP (VoIP), the transmission of packetized voice over IP networks, is gaining much attention as a possible alternative to conventional Public Switched Telephone Networks (PSTN). However, impairments present on IP networks, namely jitter, delay and channel errors can lead to the loss of packets at the receiving end. This packet loss degrades the speech quality. Model-based coders, especially G.729-A and G.723.1 International Telecommunication Union (ITU-T) Standards, have been extensively used for speech coding over IP networks because of their inherent ability to recover from erasure. Their built-in packet loss concealment makes their quality drop slowly with increasing amount of packet loss. However, their memory makes the transition from the concealed state to the correct state require a few frames and they actually tend to corrupt a few good packets before recovery as a result of a phenomenon known as "State Error". On the other hand, Pulse Code Modulation (PCM), although having a higher score than G.729 and G.723 in the periods of normal operations, does not have the ability to conceal erasure and the quality of speech during loss periods drops dramatically. Yet it can recover from packet loss more rapidly than model-based coders since the first speech sample in the first good packet restores speech to its original quality. The goal of this work is to develop a Packet Loss Concealment (PLC) algorithm to provide the G.711 PCM coders with the required ability to conceal erasure and maintain a high score of user satisfaction. This algorithm uses a receiver-based prediction model to develop an estimate of the missing speech segments.

Caterpillar Inc. has been testing construction and mining equipment using Computerized Analysis Vans for two decades. During our latest van upgrade, we chose to move to PCM/FM from FM/FM mainly to increase the channel count. We also replaced our old signal conditioning that used span and balance potentiometers with computer programmable signal conditioning. This new signal conditioning requires that the gain and balance point be calculated for every channel on each test. The formulas for these calculations depend on the sensor, the signal conditioning card used, and the test requirements. Due to the number and variety of machines tested at the Caterpillar Proving Grounds, these calculations needed to be automated. Using a few initial parameters and the information from our sensor calibration database, each channel’s balance point, gain, and expected slope are calculated. This system has increased productivity, accuracy, and consistency over manually calculating these parameters. This paper covers the sensor database, the calculated parameters and an overview of the way the system works.

Aydin Vector Division has developed and manufactured an airborne, high shock, wideband FM/FM telemetry system for Saab Missiles AB in Sweden. This system was presented in the ITC Proceedings of 1988, Volume XXIV, pp 71-84 (Ref [1]). Three such systems were supplied. Saab Missiles AB also awarded Aydin Vector Division with an additional order for a larger number of high shock, computer based, specially designed, miniature PCM/FM airborne telemetry systems. These systems were developed, manufactured and supplied to Saab Missiles AB, and have been extensively and successfully used in the Swedish program. The PCM/FM telemetry package described in this paper was used for the system testing and the firing trials program of a mortar projectile, where the measurement requirements included micro processor interfaces, as well as a high amount of analog and bi-level data channels. The paper covers the specifications of the PCM/FM system mentioned above, the concept that was used to meet these specifications, the system’s mechanical and electrical design, the packaging technique and some of the test results.

Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) Encoders used in Telemetry Instrumentation systems have traditionally been implemented using sequencer or state-machine based micro-architectures with distributed control and signal acquisition components. This architecture requires the use of many discrete electronic components and custom micro-code programming or state machine development for the control of the systems. The advent of relatively high-speed microcontrollers with embedded signal acquisition subsystems has brought about the ability to implement highly integrated PCM Encoder systems using fewer components and standardized programming methods. This paper will discuss sequencer based PCM encoders for background and then introduce the concept of Microcontroller Based PCM Encoders for Telemetry Instrumentation. Specific design examples will be introduced. Advantages and disadvantages of the two techniques will be discussed.

The new generation of advanced tactical aircraft and missiles places unique demands on the electronic and mechanical designs for flight test instrumentation, high bit rates, operating temperature range and system interconnect wiring requirements. This paper describes a microminiature PCM distributed data acquisition system with integral signal conditioning (MMSC) which has been used in advanced aircraft and missile flight testing. The MMSC system is constructed from microminiature, stackable modules which allow the user to reconfigure the system as the requirements change. A second system is also described which uses the same circuitry in hermetic hybrid packages on plug-in circuit boards.

DOD flight test centers need affordable, small-format, flight-qualified digital instrumentation recording solutions to support existing and future flight testing. The Advanced Airborne Test Instrumentation System (AATIS) is today's primary data acquisition system at the Air Force Flight Test Center (AFFTC). Digital Recorder (DR) 1995 is planned to provide full support for AATIS output capabilities and satisfy initial recording requirements for the Common Airborne Instrumentation System (CAIS). The follow-on to the AATIS, the CAIS is a tri-service development to satisfy future DOD flight test data acquisition requirements. DR 2000 is planned as the future recording solution for CAIS and will be able to fully satisfy the 50 Mbps recording requirement. In the developments of DR 1995 and DR 2000, commonality and interoperability have emerged as significant issues. This paper presents an overview of these recording solutions and examines commonality and interoperability issues.

Abstract:

After Qualcomm's proposal of the IS-95 standard, code-division multiple access (CDMA) gained popularity as an alternative multiple-access scheme in cellular and personal communication systems (PCS). Besides the advantage of allowing asynchronous operation of the users, CDMA direct-sequence spread spectrum (DS-SS) offers resistance to frequency selective fading and graceful degradation of the performance as the number of users increases.

Orthogonality of the signals in time-division multiple access and frequency-division multiple access is inherent from the nature of the multiple access scheme. In a CDMA system, orthogonality of the signals is not guaranteed in general. Consequently, the performance of conventional correlation receivers suffers.

Sub-optimum receivers which use knowledge of the interfering signals have been investigated by other researchers. These receivers attempt to cancel the multi-user interference by despreading the interfering users. Hence, these receivers require knowledge about all the spreading codes, amplitude levels, and signal timing, and are, in general, computationally intensive.

In this thesis, a technique is presented for which a high degree of interference rejection can be obtained without the necessity of despreading each user. It is shown that exploiting spectral correlation can help mitigate the effects of the multiple-access interference. If code-on-pulse DS-SS modulation is used, a cyclic form of the Wiener filter provides substantial improvements in performance in terms of bit error rate and user capacity. Furthermore, it is shown, that a special error-criterion should be used to adapt the weights of the filter.

The computational complexity of the receiver is equivalent to that of conventional equalizers.

A target missile is a unique piece of test hardware. This test tool must be highly reliable, low cost and simple and must perform any task that the developing interceptor missile planners require. The target missile must have ample power and guidance resources to put the target in a specified place in the sky at a desired time. The telemetry and measurement system for the target missile must have the same requirements as its interceptor missile but must be flexible enough to accept new requirements as they are applied to the target and its interceptor. The United States Army has tasked Coleman Aerospace to design and build this type of target missile. This paper describes and analyzes the telemetry and instrumentation system that a Hera target missile carries. This system has been flying for the past two years, has completed seven out of seven successful test flights and has accomplished all test objectives to date. The telemetry and instrumentation system is an integral part of the missile self-test system. All preflight checks and flight simulations are made with the on-board three-link telemetry system through a radio frequency (RF) link directly through the missile antenna system to a ground station antenna. If an RF transmission path is not available due to test range restrictions, a fiber-optic cable links the pulse code modulator (PCM) encoder to the receiving ground stations which include the bitsync, decommutator and recorders. With this capability, alternative testing is not limited by RF test range availability. The ground stations include two mobile stations and a factory station for all testing including preflight testing of the missile system prior to flight test launches. These three ground stations are built in a single configuration with additional equipment in the mobile units for use at remote locations. The design, fabrication, testing and utilization of these ground stations are reviewed. The telemetry system is a modification of the classical PCM system and will operate with its interceptor missile at least into the first decade from the year 2000.

Increased data throughput demands in military and avionics systems has led to the development of an advanced, All-Bus MIL-STD-1553 Instrumentation Monitor. This paper discusses an airborne unit which acquires the information from up to 8 dual-redundant buses, and formats the data for telemetry, recording or real-time analysis according to the requirements of IRIG-106-86, Chapter 8. The ALBUS-1553 acquires all or selected 1553 messages which are formatted into IRIG-compatible serial data stream outputs. Data is time tagged to microsecond resolution. The unit selectively transmits entire or partial 1553 messages under program control. This results in reduced transmission bandwidth if prior knowledge of 1553 traffic is known. The ALBUS also encodes analog voice inputs, discrete userword inputs and multiplexed analog (overhead) inputs. The unit is provided in a ruggedized airborne housing utilizing standard ATR packaging,

The old system became obsolete in terms of capability and maintainability. New on-board avionic systems also demand that the Flight Test Instrumentation group (INSTR) accommodate fiber and high speed Ethernet data. In addition, the footprint and location for INSTR systems and components will be moved to remote areas. INSTR engineering selected the Teletronics Technology Corporation's Ethernet networked Data Acquisition Units (DAUs), known as MnDAUs, as the core system. Prior to the first flight utilization of the new INSTR DAS will undergo extensive lab and field testing to assure flight test effectiveness and the accuracy of all necessary data products.

The Boeing Commercial Airplane Company presently uses an Airborne Data Analysis and Monitor System (ADAMS) to support extensive qualification testing on new and modified commercial aircraft. The ADAMS system consists of subsystems controlled by independent processors which preprocess serial PCM data, perform application-specific processing, provide graphic display of data, and manage mass storage resources. Setup and control information is passed between processors using the Ethernet protocol on a fiber optic network. Tagged data is passed between processors using a data bus with networking characteristics. During qualification tests, data are dynamically selected, analyses performed, and results recorded. Decisions to proceed or repeat tests are made in real time on the aircraft. Instrumentation in present aircraft includes up to 3700 sensors, with projections for 5750 sensors in the next generation. Concurrently, data throughput rates are increasing, and data preprocessing requirements are becoming more complex. Fairchild Weston Systems, Inc., under contract to Boeing, has developed an Acquisition Interface Assembly (AIA) which accepts multiple streams of PCM data, controls recording and playback on analog tape, performs high speed data preprocessing, and distributes the data to the other ADAMS subsystems. The AIA processes one to three streams in any of the standard IRIG PCM formats using programmable bit, frame and subframe synchronizers. Data from ARINC buses with embedded measurement labels, bus ID’s, and time tags may also be processed by the AIA. Preprocessing is accomplished by two high-performance Distributed Processing Units (DPU) operating in either pipeline or parallel environments. The DPU’s perform concatenation functions, number system conversions, engineering unit conversions, and data tagging for distribution to the ADAMS system. Time information, from either a time code generator or tape playback, may be merged with data with a 0.1 msec resolution. Control and status functions are coordinated by an embedded processor, and are accessible to other ADAMS processors via both the Ethernet interface and a local operator’s terminal. Because the AIA assembly is used in aircraft, the entire functional capability has been packaged in a 14-inch high, rack-mountable chassis with EMI shielding. The unit has been designed for high temperature, high altitude, vibrating environments. The AIA will be a key element in aircraft qualification testing at Boeing well into the next generation of airframes, and specification, design, development, and implementation of the AIA has been carried out with the significance of that fact in mind.

Resumo: Medir a qualidade da água sempre foi importante para as agências governamentais, organizações científicas e a própria sociedade manterem o nível de contaminação da água em patamares que não afetem a sobrevivência de nenhum ser vivo. Rastrear de forma mais detalhada e precisa os efluentes industriais que retornam aos rios e lagos das cidades, através da instalação de diversos medidores ao longo das linhas de distribuição de água industriais, auxilia na manutenção da qualidade da água destas fontes naturais. Os medidores existentes atualmente, conhecidos por turbidímetros, são caros, o que impede o amplo monitoramento das linhas de água. O objetivo desta dissertação é a construção de um turbidímetro de baixo custo que seja capaz de auxiliar na avaliação dos efluentes industriais. O turbidímetro proposto é baseado no GLI Método 2 (Great Lake Instruments Method 2), que emprega duas técnicas de espectroscopia: a nefelometria e a turbidimetria. A contribuição dada por esta dissertação está na aplicação da técnica de modulação por amplitude de pulso com amostragem instantânea, muito utilizada em telecomunicações, com o intuito de mitigar qualquer deslocamento do sinal devido às fontes de luz do ambiente e outras interferências do circuito eletrônico. O equipamento consegue medir uma faixa de turbidez de 16 a 4000 NTU. Abaixo de 16 NTU não há precisão nas medidas devido à intensa presença de ruído no sinal nefelométrico. Apesar de não conseguir medir o nível de turbidez aceitável de água apropriada para consumo (5 NTU), considera-se a faixa de medição suficiente para se medir efluentes indústrias e monitorá-los para não que não poluam os rios e reservatórios das cidades
Abstract: Measuring water quality has always been important for government agencies; scientific organizations and society maintain the level of water contamination at levels that do not affect the survival of any living being. Track, with more details and accuracy, the industrial effluents that return to the rivers and the lakes of the cities through the installation of several meters along the water lines of industries, helps maintain water quality of the natural sources. The meters currently existing, known for turbidimeters, are expensive, which prevents the widespread monitoring of water lines. The objective of this dissertation is design a low cost turbidimeter that is able to assist in the assessment of industrial effluents. The turbidimeter proposed is based on the GLI Method 2 (Great Lake Instruments Method 2), which employs two spectroscopic techniques: nephelometry and turbidimetry. The contribution of this dissertation is in applying the technique of pulse amplitude modulation with instantaneous sampling, widely used in telecommunications, in order to mitigate any signal offset due to ambient light sources and interference from the electronic circuit. The equipment can measure a range of 16-4000 turbidity NTU. Below 16 NTU there is no accuracy in measurements because the noise interfering in the nephelometric signal. Although the equipment cannot measure the acceptable turbidity level of drinking water (5 NTU), it is considered sufficient to measure industrial effluents and track them to not pollute the rivers and reservoirs of cities

The Common Airborne Instrumentation System (CAIS) was developed under the auspices of the Department of Defense to promote standardization, commonality, and interoperability among flight test instrumentation. The central characteristic of CAIS is a common suite of equipment used across service boundaries and in many airframe and weapon systems. The CAIS system has many advanced capabilities which must be tested during ground support and system test. There is a need for a common set of low cost, highly capable ground support hardware and software tools to facilitate these tasks. The ground support system should combine commonly available PC-based telemetry tools with unique devices needed for CAIS applications (such as CAIS Bus Emulator, CAIS Hardware Simulator, etc.). An integrated software suite is imperative to support this equipment. A CAIS Ground Support Unit (GSU) has been developed to promote these CAIS goals. This paper presents the capabilities and features of a PC-based CAIS GSU, emphasizing those features that are unique to CAIS. Hardware tools developed to provide CAIS Bus Emulation and CAIS Hardware Simulation are also described.

One of the initial control room capabilities to be demonstrated by iNET program is the ability to provide data displays in the control room that do not contain data dropouts. This concept is called PCM Backfill where PCM data is both transmitted via traditional SST and recorded onboard via an iNET compatible recorder. When data dropouts occur, data requests are made over the telemetry network to the recorder for the missing portions of the PCM data stream. The retrieved data is sent over the telemetry network to the backfill application and ultimately delivered to a pristine data display. The integration of traditional SST and the PCM Backfill capability provides both real-time safety of flight data side-by-side with pristine data suitable for advanced analysis.

Abstract:
In the last years, the importance of locating people and objects and communicating with them in real time has become a common occurrence in every day life. Nowadays, the state of the art of location systems for indoor environments has not a dominant technology as instead occurs in location systems for outdoor environments, where GPS is the dominant technology. In fact, each location technology for indoor environments presents a set of features that do not allow their use in the overall application scenarios, but due its characteristics, it can well coexist with other similar technologies, without being dominant and more adopted than the others indoor location systems. In this context, the European project SELECT studies the opportunity of collecting all these different features in an innovative system which can be used in a large number of application scenarios. The goal of this project is to realize a wireless system, where a network of fixed readers able to query one or more tags attached to objects to be located. The SELECT consortium is composed of European institutions and companies, including Datalogic S.p.A. and CNIT, which deal with software and firmware development of the baseband receiving section of the readers, whose function is to acquire and process the information received from generic tagged objects. Since the SELECT project has an highly innovative content, one of the key stages of the system design is represented by the debug phase. This work aims to study and develop tools and techniques that allow to perform the debug phase of the firmware of the baseband receiving section of the readers.

Although PCM/TDM framed data is one of the most prevalent formats handled by flight test ranges, it is often required to acquire and process other types. Examples of such non-standard data types are radar position information and meteorological data from both ground based and radiosonde systems. To facilitate the process and management of such non-standard data types, a micro-processor based system was developed to acquire and transform them into a standard PCM/TDM data frame. This obviated the expense of developing additional special software and hardware to handle such non-standard data types.

The thesis is focused on the improvement of Double Predictor Differential Pulse Code Modulation algorithm for image data compression to increase the image transmission speed. We adopt the Quadtree segmentation algorithm to divide the real-world images into regions having widely differing perceptual importance. The detail regions of a given image will be segmented into blocks with smaller block size, and the background regions of the image will be assigned larger block size for the blocks. After the pre-processing of Quadtree segmentation, the differential values between the near by pixels of each image block are reduced. Therefore, we can decrease the distribution range of prediction error as well as reduce the bit rate and quantization levels. We also use the double predictor DPCM architecture for the proposed image coding system. The conventional DPCM image coding system can be easily affected by a larger fed-back quanti-zation error while transmitted over an error-free channel. The advantage of double predictor DPCM system is to reduce the affect from the fed-back quantization error and not to increase the system complexity. The system performance results of the proposed variable block-size Double Predictor DPCM image encoder/decoder system are about 5 to 6 dB coding gain in signal to noise ratio(SNR) than the conventional DPCM system.

Abstract:
This project deals with the critical evaluation of a Poisson windowed test signal which was proposed for in-service and production testing of filtered pulse code modulation systems. The Poisson windowed test signal has various advantages over the existing two test methods specified by the International Consultive Committee for Telephone and Telegraph (CCITT). The main goals of the new test signal are to minimise the test time and to accommodate the send- and reel eve filters normally found in communication systems. The evaluation process included the compilation of performance curves of signal ,to noise ratio vs. signal level and gain variation vs. signal level. These curves were compiled by simulating the codec and filters on a digital computer and processing the output data. Three sets of programs were The results obtained revealed some fundamental limitations of the proposed test signal. Using the basic properties of the Poisson windowed signal, an alternative test signal was proposed. It was the single sided exponentially windowed sinusoidal which proved to be suitable for the testing of filtered pulse code modulation stems.

The speech application are very popular in the world today, such as telephone,voice mail box,speech recognition,speech synthesis...etc.The amout of orginal speech data is very large. If we don't process those stored speech data , it must cost much memory.For example,if we record speech signal with 8 KHZ sampling rate and 8 bits per sample,we need 64k bits memory per second and 3.84 Mbits per minute . In the region of speech coding, people try to reduce the bit rate of speech data and make reconstructed signal comfortable for people.This paper focuses on using less bit rate to implement speech application. Sound baster is used to record speech signal and Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation (ADPCM ) bases on International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (CCITT) G.721 standard is adopted to compress speech data in this paper.The sampling rate is 8 KHZ and 4 bits per sample. In ADPCM system , one word memory adaptive quantizer and adaptive preditor is adopted to reduce bit rate in this paper. In the decoder of ADPCM , a 8-bit mircocontroller is adopted to implement this algorithm.Besides,the paper use verilog to simulate the interface between the mircocontroller,memory and D- to-A converter.After finishing all simulation,the paper uses FPGA to verify whole system in real world. Besides,this paper design a simple application using this speech decoder to make sure the quantity of output speech accepted by the people.

ABSTRACT In this study, we use quadtree segmentation method to improve the non-stationary statistic characteristics of digital image models. The double predictor differential pulse code modulation (DP-DPCM) system can reduce the quantization error than that in tradition differential pulse code modulation (DPCM) system. Therefore, DP-DPCM algorithm can possess better data compression ratio as well as increase system transmission rate. The transmission medium is modeled as a fading communication channel and quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) modulation is adopted in the study. For channel coding, we use convolution encoder and maximum-likelihood Viterbi hard decision decoder. The channel coding scheme is to protect the transmitted source data and to reduce bit error rate (BER) in fading channel. Performance of this advanced double predictor differential pulse code modulation image transmission system over fading channel is evaluated in this research. Key Words : quadtree segmentation, non-stationary statistical, double predictor differential pulse code modulation, differential pulse code modulation, quadrature phase shift keying, fading channel.
