Fractional Order Oscillator Design Based on Two-Port Network

In this paper, a general analysis of the generation for all possible fractional order oscillators based on two-port network is presented. Three different two-port network classifications are used with three external single impedances, where two are fractional order capacitors and a resistor. Three possible impedance combinations for each classification are investigated, which give nine possible oscillators. The characteristic equation, oscillation frequency and condition for each presented topology are derived in terms of the transmission matrix elements and the fractional order parameters ? and ?. Mapping between some cases is also illustrated based on similarity in the characteristic equation. The use of fractional order elements ? and ? adds extra degrees of freedom, which increases the design flexibility and frequency band, and provides extra constraints on the phase difference. Study of four different active elements, such as voltage-controlled current source, gyrator, op-amp-based network, and second-generation current-conveyor-based network, serve as a two-port network is presented. The general analytical formulas of the oscillation frequency and condition as well as the phase difference between the two oscillatory outputs are derived and summarized in tables for each designed oscillator network. A comparison between fractional order oscillators with their integer order counterparts is also illustrated where some designs cannot work in the integer case. Numerical Spice simulations and experimental results are given to validate the presented analysis. © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York.

Fractional-order mutual inductance: Analysis and design

This paper introduces for the first time the generalized concept of the mutual inductance in the fractional-order domain where the symmetrical and unsymmetrical behaviors of the fractional-order mutual inductance are studied. To use the fractional mutual inductance in circuit design and simulation, an equivalent circuit is presented with its different conditions of operation. Also, simulations for the impedance matrix parameters of the fractional mutual inductance equivalent circuit using Advanced Design System and MATLAB are illustrated. The Advanced Design System and MATLAB simulations of the double-tuned filter based on the fractional mutual inductance are discussed. A great matching between the numerical analysis and the circuit simulation appears, which confirms the reliability of the concept of the fractional mutual inductance. Also, the analysis of the impedance matching using the fractional-order mutual inductance is introduced. © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

On-the-Fly Parallel Processing IP-Core for Image Blur Detection, Compression, and Chaotic Encryption Based on FPGA

This paper presents a 3 in 1 standalone FPGA system which can perform color image blur detection in parallel with compression and encryption. Both blur detection and compression are based on the 3-level Haar wavelet transform, which is used as a common building block to save the resources. The compression is based on performing the hard thresholding scheme followed by the Run Length Encoding (RLE) technique. The encryption is based on the 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), which is considered one of the most secure algorithms. Moreover, the modified Lorenz chaotic system is combined with the AES to perform the Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) mode. The proposed system is realized using HDL and implemented using Xilinx on XC5VLX50T FPGA. The system has utilized only 25% of the available slices. Furthermore, the system can achieve a throughput of 3.458 Gbps, which is suitable for real-time applications. To validate the compression performance, the system has been tested with all the standard 256times 256 images. It is shown that depending on the amount of details in the image, the system can achieve 30dB PSNR at compression ratios in the range of (0.08-0.38). The proposed system can be integrated with digital cameras to process the captured images on-the-fly prior to transmission or storage. Based on the application, the blurred images can be either marked for future enhancement or simply filtered out. © 2013 IEEE.

An inductorless CMOS realization of Chua’s circuit

In this paper, an inductorless CMOS realization of Chua’s circuit [IEEE Trans. Circ. Syst. – I 1985;32:798] is presented. The circuit is derived from the dimensionless form of Chua’s circuit and can generate Rossler or double-scroll attractors by changing a single capacitor’s value. Variables are represented in the current domain to facilitate adding or subtracting variables. New Gm-C representation of the Chua diode as well as the Chua circuit are presented. The circuit can operate from supply voltage as low as ±1.5 V. Transistor-level simulation results using PSpice in 0.5 ?m Mietec process are presented. © 2003 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.

Reconfigurable chaotic pseudo random number generator based on FPGA

This paper presents an FPGA Pseudo Random Number Generator (PRNG) that is based on the Lorenz and Lü chaotic systems. These two systems are used to generate four different 3D chaotic attractors. One attractor is generated from Lorenz while the other three attractors are generated from Lü. The output attractor of the proposed PRNG can be reconfigured during real time operation using an efficient hardwired shifting and multiplexing scheme. Furthermore, in order to exploit the proposed reconfiguration feature, the proposed PRNG has been embedded in an FPGA cascaded encryption processor that ciphers the input data from one up to four times successively. In each ciphering operation the PRNG is set to a new configuration and is initialized according to a part of the encryption key. The size of the encryption key can be varied according to the number of required ciphering operations. The proposed PRNG has been realized using VHDL, synthesized on Xilinx using the FPGA device XC5VLX50T, and analyzed using MATLAB and the NIST statistical suite. The proposed PRNG has utilized only 1.4% from the FPGA’s slices, achieved an operating frequency up to 78 MHz, and successfully passed all the NIST statistical tests. © 2018 Elsevier GmbH
