ponencia en congreso.listelement.badge Indoor positioning based on RSSI of WiFi signals: how accurate can it be?(2019-02-20) Grisales Campeón, Juan Pablo; López, Sebastián; de Jesús Meleán, Sergio R.; Parisi, Daniel; Fierens, Pablo Ignacio; Moldovan, Herman"There is abundant literature on positioning systems based on WiFi signals. Most of the systems with off-the-shelf hardware use RSSI measurements. In this paper, we try to determine the highest achievable accuracy of such systems. Instead of resorting to a theoretical analysis, e.g., Cram´er-Rao or Ziv-Zakai bounds, we apply state-of-the-art localization algorithms to measurements in a well-controlled experimental setup. We conclude that an accuracy of less than 1 meter seems unrealistic."ponencia en congreso.listelement.badge Mimicking spike-timing-dependent plasticity with emulated memristors(2019-05-07) Cisternas Ferri, Agustín; Rapoport, Alan; Fierens, Pablo Ignacio; Patterson, Germán"Memristors have found application in neuromorphic circuits and it has been shown that, under certain conditions, they may mimic the behavior of neuronal synapses. Experimenting with memristor-based synapses has several problems. Indeed, memristor samples are difficult to obtain and tweaking their parameters to adapt their behavior requires a long fabrication and testing process. For this reason, simulation and emulation become attractive alternatives for the study of memristive systems. We postulate that emulation has the advantage of working with real-world circuits and not stylized simulation models. In this paper, we propose a basic memristor emulation architecture and show that it can be used to mimic certain characteristics of synapses."ponencia en congreso.listelement.badge On the effect of noise and electronics bandwidth on a stochastic-resonance memory device(2011) Fierens, Pablo Ignacio; Patterson, Germán; Bellomo, Guido; Grosz, Diego"We recently showed that a ring of two bistable oscillators is capable of storing a single bit of information via stochastic resonance. Memory performance was characterized in terms of the probability of erroneous bit detection and was shown to be minimized for a range of noise intensities. Furthermore, memory persistence was also shown to exhibit a stochastic-resonance behavior. In this paper we investigate the influence on memory performance, in particular its resilience to noise, on both noise bandwidth and the limited time response of the bistable elements. We show that, for broad ranges of ST and noise bandwidths, the probability of erroneous bit retrieval is also minimized for an optimal noise intensity, exhibiting a deep well as a function of noise intensity. We are interested in the breadth of such a well as it points out to the robustness of the memory device under different working conditions. Moreover, we show that there exists a relation between the noise and ST bandwidths that favors wide wells. We believe that this relation may be of relevance as a design rule for practical memory devices sustained by noise."
