Title
Simulation of a signal arbitration algorithm for a sensor array
Abstract
We present a simulation based study of an arrangement consisting of a sensor array, connected to a set of signal processing units (PUs), capable to be reconfigured in real time, depending on the signal type and processing requirements. The signal issued by a sensor is conveyed by means of an arbitration algorithm to a proper PU, so that the number of its state transitions should decrease. The algorithm also ensures a high throughput of the signals to be processed. The system includes queues at the PU level, to lower data loss. The functioning of the PUs is based upon two strategies: maximising task charge and standby state period, to maintain the highest number of spare PUs in order to decrease the reconfiguration actions and the associate power penalty. The sensors are capable to issue signals with variable frequency in time, a factor considered when prioritising among concomitantly generated signals.
