System wbudowany oparty na procesorze ARM oraz układzie FPGA

摘要

W niniejszym artykule przedstawiono system przeznaczony do analizy i przetwarzania sygnałów wibroakustycznych oparty na procesorze z jądrem ARM oraz układzie FPGA. Jednym z kilku zaimplementowa-nych algorytmów w ramach prezentowanego systemu jest Procedura Liniowej Decymacij, szeroko stosowana do diagnozowania maszyn wirnikowych synchronizowanych cyklem roboczym. Szybkość wstępnego przetwarzania sygnałów przy pomocy układów FPGA jest dużo większa niż w przypadku procesorów DSP, dzięki czemu stworzony system umożliwia analizę sygnałów diagnostyczny w czasie rzeczywistym.%The paper presents an embedded system for monitoring and analysis of vibroacustic signals. The system is based on an ARM processor and FPGA, which provides both flexibility and real-time processing capabilities. The Linear Decimation Procedure was implemented as one of the vital algorithms for rotary machinery analysis along with a whole set of other calculation procedures widely employed in vibroacustic. Exp() function was used to benchmark the DEVKIT8000 and PANDA platforms against the desktop processor Core i7 3,4 GHz. The presented system is also capable of working in a real-time mode due to its high processing data rate resulting from the adopted architecture and employed high-performance components. A number of the original algorithms were implemented in the FPGA which could be used for non-stationary signals analysis. Furthermore, numerical procedures which do not fit into the FPGA due to the high resources occupation were employed on the ARM processor. It is worth mentioning that the whole system is run under the Ubuntu system which provides a huge flexibility in a number of software packets available as well as stability of the system as such. Some additional widely available environments (e.g. Octave) were installed on the platform facilitating data analysis and processing. It should be noted that the software of the system can be easily modified or replaced apart of the hardware which allows for a fast upgrade. Some other Linux or Windows distributions are also considered for installation in the future.
