Field of Interest

The Field of Interest of the IEEE Circuits and Systems (CAS) Society is the theory, analysis, design (computer aided design), and practical implementation of circuits, and the application of circuit theoretic techniques to systems and to signal processing. The coverage of this field includes the spectrum of activities from, and including, basic scientific theory to industrial applications.


Past Events

Classification of Remotely Sensed Data from Urban Areas
Wed 3rd March 2004 at 6.00pm
Large Lecture Theatre, University of Westminster, 115 New Cavendish Street, London W1W 6UW

The IEEE UKRI CAS Chapter sponsored this lecture, which was presented by Prof. Jon Atli Benediktsson from University of Iceland, Reykjavik.

Abstract
The problem of classification of high resolution remotely sensed images from urban areas is addressed. Previous studies have shown the interest of exploiting the local geometrical information of each pixel to improve the classification. This is performed using the derivative morphological profile obtained with a granulometric approach using respectively opening and closing operators. Here it is proposed to replace this by a morphological alternated sequential filter (ASF), where the openings and the closings are applied alternately. The results and the robustness provided by the ASF are presented on IKONOS panchromatic data. A fuzzy approach for classification is also introduced and compared to the other methods.

Two-Dimensional Allpass Digital Filters: Theory and Application
30th March 2004 at 1.30 for 2pm start
University of Westminster, 115 New Cavendish Street, London

The IEEE UKRI CAS Chapter cosponsored this lecture, which was presented by Dr Stuart Lawson. Further information can be found in the event poster.


A World Without Wires for the Paperless Office?
30th March 2004 at 7.30 for 8pm start
Jacksons Lane Community Centre, opposite Highgate Underground Station, London

The IEEE UKRI CAS Chapter cosponsored this lecture, which was presented by Prof. Anthony C. Davies, Emeritus Professor, Kings College London and Visiting Professor, Kingston University

Abstract
The IEEE 802 standards have made a substantial contribution to the development of Wireless LAN technologies for home and office environments, but the many alternative schemes, and the attempts at harmonization of systems co-existing in the licence-free Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) bands have led to a rather confusing and complex scenario. Additionally various alliances of companies have formed to promote particular solutions (Bluetooth, Zigbee, etc.). The presentation will be a tutorial overview and comparison of the standards for low cost wireless local area networks, including Bluetooth, Wi-fi, hiperlan and Zigbee. This abstract can also be found in the event poster.


Analog Signal Processing Conference 2004
3rd November 2004  
Oxford Brookes University

The IEEE UKRI CAS Chapter co-sponsored the 7th Analog Signal Processing Conference.

Analog electronics is an important enabler for a vast range of consumer and industrial products and continuing technological advances in ‘Systems on a Chip’ and VLSI design have increased the scope for innovative analog design. Recent advances in IC technologies, such as silicon on insulator (SOI) and copper interconnect, together with the continuing reduction in feature size are presenting new challenges and opportunities. At the discrete level, the on-going development of component technology together with increasing system performance requirements are presenting new challenges to the analog designer.

This conference provided a forum for industry and academia to present recent work on state-of-the-art ‘analog signal processing’.
