Extending SystemC to Analog Modelling and Simulation

  • Chapter
Languages for System Specification

Abstract

This paper proposes a methodology for the extension of SystemC to mixed signal systems. An RF transceiver has been used to test the accuracy and stability of the algorithm proposed. Finally a simulation of a complex mixed-signal fuzzy controller is used to show the speed up achievable with a high level description of the analog block with respect to SPICE simulation.
