Extension board for CycloneV : Multi microphone acquisition - Signal Analysis (Extending the Pyramic Array)

Abstract

The Pyramic architecture is a flexible 48-microphone array mounted on a powerful FPGA-SoC system. It allows to do massively multi-channel audio processing in real-time. This project implements an extension to the original system. In the original system, audio output is not allowed from the hardware processor system of the SoC, thus we cannot perform simultaneous capture and output. We implemented this through the design of an audio output controller, as well as a library (libpyramicio) that drives the capture and output from the software part and makes it easy for application developers to create algorithms that run on the Pyramic array.

System on a chip
A system on a chip or system-on-chip (SoC ,ˈɛsoʊsiː; pl. SoCs ,ˈɛsoʊsiːz) is an integrated circuit that integrates most or all components of a computer or other electronic system. These components almost always include on-chip central processing unit (CPU), memory interfaces, input/output devices, input/output interfaces, and secondary storage interfaces, often alongside other components such as radio modems and a graphics processing unit (GPU) – all on a single substrate or microchip.
Embedded system
An embedded system is a computer system—a combination of a computer processor, computer memory, and input/output peripheral devices—that has a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electronic system. It is embedded as part of a complete device often including electrical or electronic hardware and mechanical parts. Because an embedded system typically controls physical operations of the machine that it is embedded within, it often has real-time computing constraints. Embedded systems control many devices in common use.
Free software
Free software or libre software or libreware is computer software distributed under terms that allow users to run the software for any purpose as well as to study, change, and distribute it and any adapted versions. Free software is a matter of liberty, not price; all users are legally free to do what they want with their copies of a free software (including profiting from them) regardless of how much is paid to obtain the program.
