研究目的
Investigating the challenges and advances in using reconfigurable systems reliably in harsh environments, focusing on the effects of radiation on FPGA-based systems and summarizing the challenges in deploying FPGAs in such environments.
研究成果
The in-system reconfigurability, high logic density, and high-speed I/O of modern FPGAs make them ideal for spacecraft and high-energy physics experiments. A variety of well-known and proven SEU mitigation techniques has been applied to FPGA-based systems and successfully demonstrated in radiation environments. The success of these techniques has facilitated FPGAs being used in space applications, high-energy physics experiments, and high-reliable terrestrial applications.
研究不足
