低功耗并行LTE-Turbo译码器的VLSI结构设计及实现

针对3GPP LTE标准中的Turbo码,设计了一种基于最大后验概率算法的低功耗并行译码器.根据二次置换多项式交织器的整数数学特性,分解并行处理中每个译码器的交织地址为子码块地址和块内偏移地址,提出一种高效的递归计算子码块交织地址的算法,使得并行度可以为任意值,而不仅仅限于2的幂次;并依此设计了低复杂度的实时递归计算交织器的互连结构,以避免传统实现方法中对交织地址的存储,有效地简化了Turbo译码器本征信息处理的互连网络,减小了实现面积和功耗;最后从结构级进行优化设计,进一步减少面积和功耗.实验结果表明,在40nm的工艺下,约束工作电压为1.18V、时钟频率为282MHz,版图实现可以达到130Mb/s的吞吐量,且功耗仅为107mW,每次迭代能量效率为0.107nJ/bit.     

The parameterized level set method for structural topology optimization with shape sensitivity constraint factor

In recent years, the parameterized level set method (PLSM) has attracted widespread attention for its good stability, high efficiency and the smooth result of topology optimization compared with the conventional level set method. In the PLSM, the radial basis functions (RBFs) are often used to perform interpolation fitting for the conventional level set equation, thereby transforming the iteratively updating partial differential equation (PDE) into ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Hence, the RBFs play a key role in improving efficiency, accuracy and stability of the numerical computation in the PLSM for structural topology optimization, which can describe the structural topology and its change in the optimization process. In particular, the compactly supported radial basis function (CS-RBF) has been widely used in the PLSM for structural topology optimization because it enjoys considerable advantages. In this work, based on the CS-RBF, we propose a PLSM for structural topology optimization by adding the shape sensitivity constraint factor to control the step length in the iterations while updating the design variables with the method of moving asymptote (MMA). With the shape sensitivity constraint factor, the updating step length is changeable and controllable in the iterative process of MMA algorithm so as to increase the optimization speed. Therefore, the efficiency and stability of structural topology optimization can be improved by this method. The feasibility and effectiveness of this method are demonstrated by several typical numerical examples involving topology optimization of single-material and multi-material structures.

Anomaly detection via a combination model in time series data

Since the time series data have the characteristics of a large amount of data and non-stationarity, we usually cannot obtain a satisfactory result by a single-model-based method to detect anomalies in time series data. To overcome this problem, in this paper, a combination-model-based approach is proposed by combining a similarity-measurement-based method and a model-based method for anomaly detection. First, the process of data representation is performed to generate a new data form to arrive at the purpose of reducing data volume. Furthermore, due to the anomalies being generally caused by changes in amplitude and shape, we take both the original time series data and their amplitude change data into consideration of the process of data representation to capture the shape and morphological features. Then, the results of data representation are employed to establish a model for anomaly detection. Compared with the state-of-the-art methods, experimental studies on a large number of datasets show that the proposed method can significantly improve the performance of anomaly detection with higher data anomaly resolution.
