Cole bio-impedance model variations in daucus carota sativus under heating and freezing conditions

This paper reports on the variations in the parameters of the single dispersion Cole bio-impedance model of Daucus Carota Sativus (carrots) under heating and freezing conditions. Experiments are conducted on six samples with recorded live bio-impedance spectra versus temperature. The Cole model parameters are extracted from the measured data using the Flower Pollination Algorithm (FPA)

Frational Order Inverse Filters Based on CCII Family

This paper proposes two generalized topologies of fractional order inverse filters (FOIF). All possible realizations of each topology are investigated using the second generation current conveyor (CCII) family. Inverse fractional highpass (IFHPF), inverse fractional bandpass (IFBPF), and inverse fractional lowpass (IFLPF) filters are realized using the same topology based on the generalized

Design of fractional-order differentiator-lowpass filters for extracting the R peaks in ECG signals

An implementation of a fractional-order differentiator-lowpass filter is presented in this work, which is constructed from Operational Transconductance Amplifiers as active cells. This offers the benefits of electronic tuning and, also, of monolithic implementation. The presented scheme has been employed for the extraction of the R peaks in electrocardiogram signals due to its efficiency for

A current-mode system to self-measure temperature on implantable optoelectronics

Background: One of the major concerns in implantable optoelectronics is the heat generated by emitters such as light emitting diodes (LEDs). Such devices typically produce more heat than light, whereas medical regulations state that the surface temperature change of medical implants must stay below + 2 °C. The LED's reverse current can be employed as a temperature-sensitive parameter to measure

Ternary Functions Design Using Memristive Threshold Logic

Memristive threshold logic (MTL) concept is emerged in many circuits to enable high-performance systems in terms of power, energy, area, and delay. This paper proposes a systematic method for building two-bit ternary number functions based on the MTL concept. The proposed method is applied to build the basic ternary arithmetic operations. The implementation of two-bit adder and multiplier is

Synchronization and FPGA realization of fractional-order Izhikevich neuron model

This paper generalizes the Izhikevich neuron model in the fractional-order domain for better modeling of neuron dynamics. Accurate and computationally efficient numerical techniques such as non-standard finite difference (NSFD) scheme is used to solve the neuron system in the fractional-order domain for different cases. Neuron synchronization plays an important role in the process of information

Heating and Freezing Injury to Plant Tissues and Their Effect on Bioimpedance: Experimental Study

Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) has been used as a technique for the assessment of food attributes. This paper discusses the effect of injuries caused by heating and freezing treatments to plant's bioimpedance. Unlike other studies to these kinds of injuries, experiments are carried out on the whole fruit using non-invasive electrodes keeping the plant tissues unharmed. Moreover, one

Memristor FPGA IP core implementation for analog and digital applications

Exploring the nonlinear dynamics of the memristors is essential to be adequately used in the applications. Realizing memristor on FPGAs as an intellectual property (IP) core offers a flexible platform to realize different models. In the literature, few implementations have been proposed for simple and limited memristor model. In this brief, two discrete and continuous versatile memristor models

Center pulse width modulation implementation based on memristor

This paper introduces two new versions for memristor-based center pulse-width modulator (PWM) circuits. The proposed circuits use only one comparator which reduces the circuit complexity and power dissipation compared to a former work. The first design is based on two memristors and two resistors while the second design is based on four memristors. Theoretical analysis is provided, and the

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
