Wireless body sensor nodes (WBSNs) are miniaturized devices that are able to acquire, process and transmit bio-signals (such as electrocardiograms, respiration or human-body kinetics). WBSNs face major design challenges due to extremely limited power budgets and very small form factors. We demonstrate, for the first time in the literature, the use of disruptive nanotechnologies to create new nano-engineered...
This paper focuses on a review of state-of-the-art memory designs and new design methods for near-threshold computing (NTC). In particular, it presents new ways to design reliable low-voltage NTC memories cost-effectively by reusing available cell libraries, or by adding a digital wrapper around existing commercially available memories. The approach is based on modeling at system level supported by...
Technology scaling enables the design of low cost biosignal processing chips suited for emerging wireless body-area sensing applications. Energy consumption severely limits such applications and memories are becoming the energy bottleneck to achieve ultra-low-power operation. When aggressive voltage scaling is used, memory operation becomes unreliable due to the lack of sufficient Static Noise Margin...
Global navigation satellite system reflectometry (GNSS-R) remote sensing is a new remote sensing technique of satellite navigation application. Essentially, it entails a method of remote sensing that receives and processes microwave signals reflected from various surfaces. The GPS open-loop differential real-time receiver (GOLD-RTR) instrument have been proposed as GNSS-R instrument, to gather global...
