General Topics of Thesis for Academic Year 2013/2014

The condition of the choice of thesis is selecting subjects from the same department.

Department of Telecommunications (Department no. 440):

Speech Quality Monitoring in Asterisk PBX ( miroslav.voznak@vsb.cz

)

Abstract: The Asterisk is a SW solution enabling mainly voice communication in a corporate environment. Speech quality is a crucial factor that affects the level of voice services and therefore the appropriate attention must be given to its assessment. The goal of this diploma thesis is to implement the speech quality monitoring into Asterisk PBX and the approach can be based on intrusive or non-intrusive methods. The calculated MOS score will be provided to the individual calls.

Highly Scalable SIP Proxy Architecture ( miroslav.voznak@vsb.c

z )

Abstract: One of the advantages of cloud computing is dynamic scaling which allows cloud users to automatically expand or reduce the number of VM instances as required by the application. This feature is attractive for VoIP providers. The aim of the thesis is to implement such highly scalable

SIP proxy architecture based on a cloud computing platform.

Department of Cybernetics and Biomedical Engineering (Department no. 450):

Body Sensor Network (BSN) ( martin.cerny@vsb.cz

)

Abstract: BSN are now very frequently discussed topic. They are a network of sensors that can use the impedance characteristics of the human body to its own communication with each other.

Transmission medium becomes a human body.

BSN is the basis for knowledge of the impedance characteristics of the human body. The scope of this project is the first detecting impedance characteristics of the human body. Construction equipment that is able to detect human body impedance at different frequencies. The next step can be identified proposals for the use of knowledge in the BSN.

Home Sensor Network ( martin.cerny@vsb.cz

)

Abstract: Caring for persons with handicaps or the elderly in their home environment today is the way to avoid unwanted consequences of aging.

HMS is furnishing such devices that monitor the person under surveillance and help her in case of sudden health problem. Other components are elements of home automation, which help to increase living comfort. Our own test laboratory HMS apartment for which they are ready to end solutions.

The project is to ensure cooperation between wireless communication devices, installation of these devices in the apartment, performance measurement and control long-term series of measurements.

The following measured data then suggests student evaluation or applied algorithms, based on fuzzy logic, which according to the results of existing work shows a good solution.

Measurement of biosensors impedance characteristics ( martin.cerny@vsb.cz

)

Abstract: Biosensors in biomedical technique are most common used devices for scanning electrical activities in human body. This thesis is focused on impedance characteristics of biosensors. Biosensors are mostly used for obtaining bioelectrical signals.

Measurement will be done by using millimeter EVAL AD5933 or alternatively, which is ideal for this kind of measurement. This millimeter is also good for electrical-impedance spectroscopy and non-invasive measurement of blood impedance. The goal of the project will be development of bioimpedance measurement from 0.05 to 1 kHz range, on electrode sample. The impedance characteristic is very useful for new electrode design and verification.

Actimetry – position, location and fall detection from accelerometers signal ( martin.cerny@vsb.cz

)

Abstract: In modern day with modern technologies and modern procedures, where many kinds of human activities take place, biomedicine has an important place. It focuses on the connection between medical science and technical science, in order to find new diagnostic and monitoring instruments for protection of human health. One of the primary monitoring element is reading the physical characteristics of the human. It means to monitor movement and positions of human body.

Now there exists technical instruments, which can scan and evaluate these parameters with good results. For example, accelerometers, gyroscopes. The signals of these instruments can be processed, evaluated and, with combination of biological signals, it could make up a large-scale monitoring system, for use by a patient in home care without need of medical professional.

The goal of the project will be development of laboratory task, for data measurement and processing from accelerometers and gyroscopes. The sensors on phantom model will be placed into the black box and there were analysed and compared the position of the phantom in time during random movement of BlackBox. The signal from different sensor type will be compared.

Design of Control Systems with FPGA ( vladimir.kasik@vsb.cz

)

Abstract: FPGA - Field Programmable Gate Array - an integrated circuit on which the user can implement any logic up to a high degree of complexity. Thanks to parallelism and user hardware customization the FPGA can be used efficiently for fast process control. In modern FPGA are preferably used parallel adders and multipliers and thus there can be achieved the fastest feedback control at present. The aim of the thesis is to analyze the topic of control systems with FPGA and the design and implementation of PID (or PSD) controller for DC motor control. Resources for project implementation will include a development board with Xilinx FPGA, incremental encoder and at least LED display and buttons.

Automatic System for Measurement of Electrical and Other Signals ( petr.bilik@vsb.cz

)

Abstract: Automated measurement systems based on Virtual Instrumentation bring many advantages like: modular hardware, flexible software and fast prototyping. Virtual Instrumentation leverages commercially available technologies, such as the PC, AD converter, digital input and outputs placed on data acquisition multifunctional boards or modules. Traditional instruments are often integrated into Virtual Instrumentation based measurement systems, then the PC communicates with them using available communication interface. The primary difference between traditional instrumentation and virtual instrumentation is that software is used to replace a significant amount of hardware. To build automated measurement system based on Virtual instrumentation very often is used graphical development environment LabVIEW.

Modern Methods of Signal Processing ( zdenek.machacek@vsb.cz

)

Abstract: Design, implementation and realization of the complex system solution for the analysis and detection of audio or video data signal for the real time industrial applications. The system will be developed with a sequence of sophisticated algorithms and methods to analyses performing, which allow signal processing, system parameters changing and visualization on the user interface.

Implementation of modern signal processing methods enables realization and innovation of existing legacy systems and it improves the detection accuracy in signal processes.
