A scheme for buffering Ethernet packets for hardware implementation of their processing based on
FPGA has been developed. The scheme is designed at the RTL level in the System Verilog language
in the Quartus II 13.1 development environment. Verification and modeling were carried
out in the ModelSim Altera environment. An FPGA of the CycloneIV family, located on the
DE2-115 debugging board, was chosen as the target platform. Particular attention is paid to data
reception and transmission modules, as well as the implementation of a hardware queue (FIFO)
with the possibility of changing its contents by the processing module. The scheme is parameterized,
it allows you to change the queue depth at the expense of one parameter without making
changes to other parts of the scheme. A feature of the scheme is the ability to add any hardware
module that monitors, processes or encrypts network traffic. The MII interface is used for transmitting
and receiving packets, which allows using any available physical layer chips for receiving
and transmitting packets. The device allows you to easily change the input and output interface,
which increases its versatility. The system does not use proprietary IP cores, which makes it as
portable as possible to FPGAs from various manufacturers. The main feature of the scheme is the
low delay between receiving and sending a packet, determined only by the parameters of the processing
module. The results of the work can be applied during the design of devices that transmit
data with preprocessing. For example, network equipment (switches, routers), monitoring and
data collection systems. -
SPATIAL SEPARATION OF INFORMATION IN THE AIRCRAFT COMMUNICATION DEVICE
V.N. Nosulenko, I.A. Basul, E.Y. Zybin, М.А. Lelikov2022-03-02Abstract ▼The article presents some results of research aimed at the design of human-machine interfaces,
taking into account the multimodal nature of human perception, for use in the on-board
equipment of an aircraft. In particular, we are talking about the possibility of a wider use of audio
channels for input and output of information. The advantages of sound interfaces in relation to
visual and tactile ones are, first of all, in the absence of the need for directed attention of the pilot,
in the ability to create auditory objects in three-dimensional space and indicate the direction to
several different objects at the same time. In the experiments, the possibilities of spatial separation
of speech information flows in an aircraft intercom in situations where the level of interference
significantly exceeded the level of the target speech message were tested. The indicators of target
message recognition were evaluated in the presence of two types of sound interference: the sound of
another speech message and the noise of an aircraft engine. The results showed that spatial separation
of audio messages significantly improves the operator’s ability to recognize their content, regardless
of the type of interference. The maximum number of errors when recognizing a target message
corresponds to its spatial position in the same direction as the noise of the interference. At the
same time, message recognition is significantly better if it is pronounced in a female voice. The fact of
spatial asymmetry of correct recognitions was also revealed: messages arriving from the right are recognized better than in cases of their arrival from the left. The practical significance of the research
concerns the possibility of creating intercom with increased security against conflicts between
different information flows, as well as against the impact of external acoustic noise. The prospect is
seen in the use of three-dimensional audio interfaces not only as part of an intercom, but also for
navigation and aircraft control systems, as well as monitoring its state. -
AIRCRAFT FLIGHT PATH PREDICTION UNDER COMPLETE PARAMETRIC UNCERTAINTY
V.V. Kosyanchuk, V.V. Glasov, E.Y. Zybin, Liguo Tan2021-04-04Abstract ▼Most of the methods for predicting the behavior of dynamic systems are based on the information
about the parameters of their mathematical models. However, the problems of
nonstationarity, nonlinearity and nonidentifiability of models of real complex systems lead to the
fact that traditional parametric methods are applicable in practice only when the parameters and
structure of models of systems are reliably known, and the uncertainties in the formulation of the
problem are significantly limited. The article describes an original nonparametric method for
predicting the aircraft flight path under absence of a priori information about the parameters of its
mathematical flight dynamics model. The proposed method, unlike similar widely known ones,
does not use logical or statistical calculations and does not require its preliminary training or
long-term tuning. It is based only on the basis of a retrospective analysis of several sequential
values of the spatial coordinates of the aircraft and its control signals, therefore it is not subject to
model errors and can be used to predict the flight path of the aircraft under complete parametric
uncertainty, even in the case of non-identifiability of its flight dynamics model. The results of numerical
simulation of the solution to the problem of predicting the flight path of an unmanned
aerial vehicle of the most common type of quadrocopter under complete uncertainty in parameters
of its mathematical model are presented. The results obtained confirm the efficiency of the developed
method and show high performances of the accuracy of solving the problem and the speed of
tuning the algorithm. The described approach can be used to predict the motion path of any other
vehicle (car, ship, etc.), if its model is linearizable over the observed time interval and there is
information about its control signals. Practical implementation of the described nonparametric
method together with traditional parametric ones will improve the accuracy of flight path predicting
and solve the problem of high-precision landing of an unmanned aerial vehicle on an actively
maneuvering ship, and specifically in the event of various critical situations.
