Abstract

This paper proposed an experimental device that emulates and facilitates teaching the theoretical concepts of error-control coding (ECC) techniques. Two prototypes laboratory boards were designed and implemented. The first board simulates the transmitter side of a typical digital communication system. It mainly contains a data source, (7,4) Hamming encoder, cyclic redundancy check encoder (CRC), and Gaussian noise generator. The second board has two types of Hamming decoders, a syndrome decoder, and a maximum likelihood (ML) decoder that accepts the received soft signals at the channel output. Each board has several control switches so that the trainee can change the code variables, noise power, user ID, in addition to display tools such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and test points for the oscilloscope that help the user to observe the results. Moreover, results and setting variables can also be displayed on a PC’s screen connected through a USB port and organic light emitting diodes (OLED) display that is attached to the receiver board. The pipelining architecture of the field programmable gate array (FPGA) device was exploited in this proposed system to reduce the processing delay and hence increase the data throughput. Furthermore, we proved that both theoretical and experimental tests are identical.

Abstract

In this work a simple, high conversion efficiency, and high output voltage energy harvesting device was designed and simulated. The harvesting device consists of microstrip antennas, matching and rectifier circuits. Both mono patch and array antennas are designed to be operated at 5.8 GHz. The simulation work was implemented using central standard time (CST) studio. Results showed an accepted return loss and high gain. To more elevate the device gain and then to obtain greater output energy, an array of microstrip antennas was designed. To convert the radio frequency (RF) energy to dc output voltage, a rectifier, which consists of a voltage doubter and schottky diodes was designed using advanced design system (ADS) simulator. Furthermore, to achieve 50 Ω impedance, a matching circuit was designed by adjusting the microstrip line patterns. The output voltage of the device was 6.2 V at input power 20 dBm and 560 Ω load resistance.
