An Intuitive Signal Processing Approach for Temperature Fluctuations in Fuel Subassemblies
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the approach towards signal processing characteristics for temperature fluctuations from a fast thermocouple located above fuel subassemblies of fast reactor. Simulated temperature profile denoting various power levels was fed to the FPGA and the RMS value at each power level was calculated in real time. The technique mentioned in the paper helps in the analysis of reactor power and also fluctuation in it due to subassembly blockage. Altera Cyclone III FPGA was used as target device for Terasic DE0 board.

متن کاملA Time-Frequency approach for EEG signal segmentation
The record of human brain neural activities, namely electroencephalogram (EEG), is generally known as a non-stationary and nonlinear signal. In many applications, it is useful to divide the EEGs into segments within which the signals can be considered stationary. Combination of empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and Hilbert transform, called Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT), is a new and powerful ...
