I am interested in the use of embedded microprocessors in modern day electronic products. In particular I have a general interest in microprocessor & memory architectures; common bus protocol and the efficient programming of microprocessors. More specifically I have interest in real-time systems and associated signal processing algorithms, embedded media systems and robotics.
Past research interests have included the implementation, topology, rapid prototyping and long-term analyses and characterisation of both baseband and bandpass Sigma-Delta modulators. In relation to this I have worked on/with Poly-Phase decimation filtering for the measurement of oversampled data converters, arithmetic noise power calculation for IIR filters, VHDL chip design tools, DSP algorithm development, Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) for fast prototyping and VLSI ASIC design
