Wirelessly Powered cm-Scale Sensor for Small Insect Localization Application

Creator:: Kang, Jian
Abstract:: The prevalence of Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications leads to an increasing focus on the design and optimization of sensor nodes. Battery lifetime and associated costs of battery replacement often limits the long term operation and viability of sensor nodes. RF wireless energy harvesting on the other hand can be appealing since...

Measurement and analysis of soft error vulnerability of low-voltage logic and memory circuits

Creator:: Pawlowski, Robert
Abstract:: Scaling the supply voltage into the sub/near-threshold domain is one of the most effective methods for improving the energy efficiency of next-generation electronic microsystems. Unfortunately, the relationship between low-voltage operation and radiation-induced soft error rate is not widely known, as little research has been previously performed and reported for soft-error...

Design techniques for low-power electrical and optical serial link receivers

Creator:: Bai, Rui
Abstract:: As computation power continues to grow, the demand for data transfer bandwidth is also rising. This is reflected in the increasing data-rate of high-speed links. However, the increase in data-rate is sustainable only if the I/O energy efficiency improves as well. This dissertation explores several techniques to enable high-speed links...

Analysis and design on low-power short-range radios for wireless body area networks

Creator:: Cheng, Jiao
Abstract:: The release of the IEEE802.15.6 standard has led to increased interest in low-power technologies for wireless body-area-networks (WBANs). The power dissipation, supply voltage, and die area are some of the most important criteria for successful WBAN implementations. Digital-intensive RX architectures can potentially result in sub-1V operation with significant reductions in...

Design and modeling of low-power register file memories

Creator:: Donkoh, Eric Kwesi
Abstract:: With the evolving popularity of new computing platforms such as Ultrabooks, Tablets, and Smart Phones, and the shift to multi-core computing, power is now the key performance limiter, a departure from the traditional frequency limitation. As such, increasingly low-power design solutions feature prominently in early architectural and design space exploration...

Design techniques for low-power multi-GS/s analog-to-digital converters

Creator:: Jiang, Tao
Abstract:: Ultra-high-speed (>10GS/s), medium-resolution (5~6bit), low-power (<50mW) analog-to-digital converter can find it application in the areas of digital oscilloscopes and next-generation serial link receivers. There are several challenges to enable a successful design, however. First, the time-interleaved architecture is required in order to achieve over 10GS/s sampling rate, with the trade-off...

Energy-efficient clock generation for communication and computing systems using injection locking

Creator:: Ma, Chao
Abstract:: The design of high-performance, high-speed clock generation and distribution becomes challenging in terms of phase noise, jitter and power consumption, due to the fast development of communication and computing systems. Injection locking is a promising clocking technique since it can significantly improve the energy efficiency, suppress the phase noise of...

Cloud-Enabled Health Monitoring on an Android Device

Creator:: Howe, Tyler Daniel
Abstract:: Constant and reliable health monitoring can help doctors provide higher quality health care to meet the growing needs of the medical industry. The advent of cloud computing has enabled low-cost sensor devices that can process their data in real-time without powerful onboard hardware. Using an Android smartphone, medical data can...

TIMR : Time Interleaved Multi Rail

Creator:: Ruggeri, Thomas L.
Abstract:: This work presents a new energy saving technique for modern digital designs. We propose Time Interleaved Multi-Rail (TIMR) - a method for providing two dynamic supply rails to a circuit. This technique uses the first supply rail to mask the transition delay while changing the voltage of the second rail....

A Personal Dead Reckoning RFID Waypoint Updated System for Footstep Level Resolution Path Tracking to Enable Research Into Early Diagnosis of Alzheimer’s

Creator:: Connell, Sean Robert
Abstract:: The problem of footstep level resolution indoor path tracking and gait velocity lacks a good solution. The current solutions are either prohibitively expensive [4], extremely invasive to deploy [1], or too inaccurate to achieve the sub meter level resolution required to track foot paths. By combining existing pedestrian dead reckoning...
