Turbo decoders applied in wireless communications are complex and dissipate large amount of power. In this paper, we investigate design & simulation of Turbo algorithm for wireless communications applications, including our proposed Simulink model of Turbo decoder. The schemes employed in our low-power design are clock-gating and toggle filtering. We described the behavior of Turbo decoders in ...

This paper describes how to extend the capabilities of SIMULINK for the time-domain simulation of ZA modulators implemented by using switched-capacitor, switched-current and continuous-time circuits. considering the most important error mechanisms. The behavioural models of these circuits are incorporated into the SIMULINK environment by using C-language S-function blocks, which leads to a dras...

Traditional worst-case execution time (WCET) analysis interfaces to the user either through high-level language source code or assembly/machine code. This paper demonstrates how WCET analysis can be integrated into high-level application design and simulation tools like Matlab/Simulink, thus providing a higher-level interface to WCET analysis. The paper shows necessary restrictions and adaption...

Various aspects related to controlling induction motors are investigated. Different control strategies are explored. The direct torque control (DTC) strategy is studied in details and its relation to space vector modulation (SVM) is emphasized. An SVM-based DTC strategy is suggested and a controller design based on this strategy is presented. A Simulink model representing the controller is deve...

Matlab/Simulink is a wide-spread tool for model-based design of embedded systems. Supporting hierarchy, domain specific building blocks, functional simulation and automatic code-generation, makes it well-suited for the design of control and signal processing systems. In this work, we propose an automated translation methodology for a subset of Simulink models to Synchronous dataflow Graphs (SDF...

In this paper the efficiency of code generated by a particular RAD systems will be examined and contrasted with other available systems. The functionality and performance of SMT6050, the new software module from Sundance, helping RAD systems target DSP will be fully discussed. The RAD used as the base system, in this case, is Simulink and Real Time Workshop (RTW) from MathWorks . These two prod...
