Verification and Benchmarking in MPA Coprocessor Design Process
PublicationThis paper presents verification and benchmarking required for the development of a coprocessor digital circuit for integer multiple-precision arithmetic (MPA). Its code is developed, with the use of very high speed integrated circuit hardware description language (VHDL), as an intellectual property core. Therefore, it can be used by a final user within their own computing system based on field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs)....

Eco-Friendly Ether and Ester-Urethane Prepolymer: Structure, Processing and Properties
PublicationThis study concerns bio-based urethane prepolymers. The relationship between the chemical structure and the thermal and processing parameters of bio-based isocyanate-terminated ether and ester-urethane prepolymers was investigated. Bio-based prepolymers were obtained with the use of bio-monomers such as bio-based diisocyanate, bio-based polyether polyol or polyester polyols. In addition to their composition, the bio-based prepolymers...

Polyurethane Glycerolysate as a Modifier of the Properties of Natural Rubber Mixtures and Vulcanizates
PublicationChemical recycling of polyurethanes can be realized in several different ways, but the most important methods are glycolysis and glycerolysis. Both methods permit recovery of polyols (when the process is realized with the mass excess of depolymerizing agent) or substitutes of polyols, which contain urethane moieties in the main chains and terminate mainly in hydroxyl groups (when the process is realized with the mass excess of...

Digital Processing of Frequency–Pulse Signal in Measurement System
PublicationThe work presents the issue of the use of multichannel measurement systems of sensors processing input value to impulse signal frequency. The frequency impulse signal obtained from such sensors is often required to be processed at the same time with a voltage signal which is obtained from other sensors used in the same measurement system. In such case, it is usually necessary to sample the output signals from all sensors in the...

Call processing performance in multidomain IMS/NGN architecture
PublicationThe Next Generation Network (NGN) architecture, which bases on the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) concept, is a proposition of a telecommunication network dedicated to the needs of the modern information society. The main goal of NGN is to provide Quality of Service (QoS), for which proper network design and dimensioning are necessary. This also requires appropriate traffic models, which should be efficient and not excessively complicated...

Digital signal processing applied to the modernization of Polish Navy sonars
PublicationThe article presents the equipment and digital signal processing methods used for modernizing the Polish Navy’s sonars. With the rapid advancement of electronic technologies and digital signal processing methods, electronic systems, including sonars, become obsolete very quickly. In the late 1990s a team of researchers of the Department of Marine Electronics Systems, Faculty of Electronics, Telecommunications and Informatics, Gdansk...

Massive surveillance data processing with supercomputing cluster
PublicationIn recent years, increasingly complex algorithms for automated analysis of surveillance data are being developed. The rapid growth in the number of monitoring installations and higher expectations of the quality parameters of the captured data result in an enormous computational cost of analyzing the massive volume of data. In this paper a new model of online processing of surveillance data streams is proposed, which assumes the...

Web-based 3D processing and dissemination of multibeam sonar data
PublicationThe continuous detailed surveys of the various water bodies over time produce a large and ever-increasing volume and density of underwater sounding data. Three-dimensional data, such as those obtained by multibeam sonar systems, are quite complex to manage, and thus their growing numbers increase the pressure on development of new solutions dedicated to processing them. This paper presents a concept system for web-based dissemination...

Multibeam Sonar Data Processing for Seafloor Classification
PublicationDespite many years of the development of methodology for sensing the seafloor by means of underwater acoustics, the currently used techniques are still not mature enough and not ready to be utilised in numerous different (i.e. with respect to a water region character, used equipment type etc.) tasks. Therefore the hydroacoustic methods, both utilising vertical observations (e.g. by singlebeam echosounders), as well as those relying...
