A Low-Power Wide-Dynamic-Range Analog VLSI Cochlea

Low-power wide-dynamic-range systems are extremely hard to build. The biological cochlea is one of the most awesome examples of such a system: It can sense sounds over 12 orders of magnitude in intensity, with an estimated power dissipation of only a few tens of microwatts. In this paper, we describe an analog electronic cochlea that processes sounds over 6 orders of magnitude in intensity, and that dissipates 0.5 mW. This 117-stage, 100 Hz to 10 KHz cochlea has the widest dynamic range of any artificial cochlea built to date. The wide dynamic range is attained through the use of a wide-linear-range transconductance amplifier, of a low-noise filter topology, of dynamic gain control (AGC) at each cochlear stage, and of an architecture that we refer to as overlapping cochlear cascades. The operation of the cochlea is made robust through the use of automatic offset-compensation circuitry. A BiCMOS circuit approach helps us to attain nearly scale-invariant behavior and good matching at all frequencies. The synthesis and analysis of our artificial cochlea yields insight into why the human cochlea uses an active traveling-wave mechanism to sense sounds, instead of using bandpass filters. The low power, wide dynamic range, and biological realism make our cochlea well suited as a front end for cochlear implants.

Pi-coefficient analysis of update algorithms for adaptive systems

This paper finds the appropriate pi-coefficients for a parameter estimation adaptive system and uses them to analyze the stability of two estimation algorithms. The estimation error dynamics of the system are modeled by a linear time-invariant subsystem and a nonlinear time-varying update law in a feedback loop. Then the so-called max-p problems are formulated and solved to obtain the pi-coefficients for the linear subsystem and nonlinear update low. For the investigated system, the quantitative results show that the least-squares update algorithm has larger stability range than that of the gradient algorithm, and the σ-modification scheme gives larger stability ranges for both algorithms.     

硼酸铝钕(NAB)晶体光学均匀性的测量
