      Ordaz García, Oscar Osvaldo; Ortiz-López, Manuel; Quiles-Latorre, Francisco Javier; Arceo-Olague, José Guadalupe; Solís-Robles, Roberto; Bellido Outeiriño, Francisco José (MDPI, 2020)
      Smart lighting systems based on the Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI) protocol are the most suitable for street lighting systems, allowing digital lighting control operations. Unfortunately, the microcontrollers, ...
    • Fast FPGA prototyping to explore and compare new SPWM strategies 

      Geninatti, Sergio R.; Ortiz-López, Manuel; Quiles-Latorre, Francisco Javier; Morales-Leal, Tomás; Gersnoviez, Andrés; Moreno-Muñoz, A. (Elsevier, 2024)
      This study presents a Flexible Test Bench (FTB) implemented with FPGA that synthesises of a large number of strategies that apply “Spread Spectrum” to reduce the energy of the fundamental harmonics present in a conventional ...
    • Streetlight Control System Based on Wireless Communication over DALI Protocol 

      Bellido Outeiriño, Francisco José; Quiles-Latorre, Francisco Javier; Moreno Moreno, Carlos Diego; Flores Arias, José María; Moreno-García, Isabel; Ortiz-López, Manuel (MDPI, 2016)
      Public lighting represents a large part of the energy consumption of towns and cities. Efficient management of public lighting can entail significant energy savings. This work presents a smart system for managing public ...
    • Throughput unfairness in fair arbitration interconnection-buses for aerospace embedded systems 

      Ibarra-Delgado, Salvador; Sandoval-Arechiga, Remberto; Brox-Jiménez, María; Ortiz-López, Manuel (IEEE, 2020)
      Currently, embedded systems are composed of processors, memories, and Intellectual Property Cores (IP Cores) interconnected to develop a set of specific tasks. Therefore, the selection of an appropriate interconnection ...
