==Telecommunications==
==Short Description==
 
  
Numerous applications from the area of wireless communications, robotics or navigation require computationally demanding signal-processing algorithms, which have to be executed in real-time. Examples include robot positioning or estimation of time-varying radio channels.
 
  
Sigma point belief propagation [1] lets one describe these algorithms in a common way. While in a recent master project [2] we demonstrated, how a more restrictive type of belief propagation can be used to build a dedicated processor architecture, the goal of this project is to build a processor for sigma point belief propagation. Application specific processors of this type are serve as an signal-processing accelerator in heterogeneous multicore processors. They offer a unique blend of flexibility and computational performance compared to dedicated hardware implementations or general purpose processors.

The following supervisors work in the field of telecommunications. Feel free to contact them if you want to do a project in this field.
  
You will start by implementing a sigma point processor in Matlab, then implementing and verifying the processor in VHDL. Afterwards you will compare the performance speed-up of your processor against existing designs and start with back-end design. After the back-end, your signal processor ASIC will be fabricated in high-end 65nm CMOS technology.
