| Zusammenfassung |
| Digital applications that must be on-board space missions must comply with
a very restrictive set of requirements. These include energy efficiency,
small volume and weight, robustness and high performance. Moreover, these
circuits cannot be repaired in case of error, so they must be reliable or
provide some way to recover from errors. These features make reconfigurable
hardware (FPGAs, Field Programmable Gate Arrays) a very suitable technology
to be used in space missions. This paper presents a Martian dust devil
detector implemented on an FPGA. The results show that a hardware
implementation of the algorithm presents very good numbers in terms of
performance compared with the software version. Moreover, as the amount of
time needed to perform all the computations on the reconfigurable hardware is
small, this hardware can be used most of the time to realize other
applications. |
