QCA have the potential to achieve low power dissipation and operate high speed at THZ frequencies. However large probability of occurrence fabrication defects in QCA, is a fundamental challenge to use this emerging technology. Because of these various defects, it is necessary to obtain exhaustive recognition about these defects. In this paper a complete survey of different QCA faults are presented first. Then some techniques to improve fault tolerance in QCA circuits explained. The effects of missing cell as an important fault on XOR gate that is one of important basic building block in QCA technology is then discussed by exhaustive simulations. Improvement technique is then applied to these XOR structures and then structures are resimulated to measure their fault tolerance improvement due to using these fault tolerance technique. The result show that different QCA XOR gates have different sensitivity against this fault. After using improvement technique, the tolerance of XOR gates have been increased, furthermore in terms of sensitivity against this defect XORs show similar behavior that indicate the effectiveness of improvement have been made. تفاصيل المقالة -

2 - Fault Tolerant Design of QCA Binary Wire

A fault tolerant system should have the ability to detect, locate and correct the error and recover the system to أکثرDependability of a circuit is among the most important issues in the design process and reliability concerns are associated with the digital system design. A fault tolerant system should have the ability to detect, locate and correct the error and recover the system to normal operational conditions. It is more important to use fault tolerant gates in nano scale digital circuits because by decreasing the device dimensions the influence of external factors and therefore the probability of fault occurrence will increase. Since the binary wire is an essential part of digital systems and especially QCA (Quantum Cellular Automata) circuits, a redundancy based fault tolerant technique is presented in this paper to improve the fault tolerance of this part. The efficiency of this method is evaluated by MATLAB software. Results show that the fault tolerance of binary wire will significantly increase by using the proposed method. The hardware redundancy of this method is about 100% which is much less than TMR (Triple Module Redundancy) methods by more than 200% redundancy. تفاصيل المقالة -

The quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is one of efficient nano-electronics technologies which can provide simple and efficient implementation of digital circuits in nanoscale. Due to the importance of addition in digital processors and embedded systems, there many QCA designs of adders and subtractors during the previous years. However, recently the unified design of adder and subtractor circuits has been considered to achieve overall area and delay reduction for digital computational circuits. In this paper, we present new coplanar design of a unified adder/subtractor unit with the QCA technology. Besides, the proposed single-layer design approach has been used to design separate half adder, half subtractor, half adder and full adder circuits. The comparison of circuit’s parameters of the proposed designs than previous works show the significant improvement in term of area, delay and cell number. تفاصيل المقالة -

These devices are capable of achieving very high switching speeds and very low electrical power consumption. AES block cipher is now used worldwide. This algorithm is based on the Rijndael cipher which was submitted as a proposal to NIST during the AES selection process. The implementation of this cryptographic algorithm in QCA technology is presented in this paper. On the other hand, the QCADesigner software which is used to simulate QCA circuits is sensitive to the QCA cell count, inputs and outputs. It seems that by increasing the QCA cell count, inputs and outputs, the simulation time will increase and sometimes the simulation will be impossible. A higher level modeling of QCA circuits by VHDL hardware description language and simulation of these models by ModelSim software is presented in this paper to solve the mentioned problem. It is shown that the QCA implementation of the AES algorithm with key, input and output length of 128 bits is easily modeled and simulated in ModelSim software. The implementation results of various implementation methods are also compared in this paper for AES algorithm. It is illustrated that the QCA implementation of this algorithm is the most efficient implementation among existing methods. تفاصيل المقالة -

If the sinoatrial node is disrupted for any reason or if there is a problem with the heart's electrical signal path, the heart rate will decrease or become impaired; in which case the cardiac pacemaker could control the heart function. The pacemaker is an electrical stimulator that causes the heart to expand and contract and triggers pulses to the heart when needed or permanently. Since the pacemaker is placed inside the patient's body, it should be designed based on the minimum power consumption. Besides, frequency adjustment in this device is necessary to regulate heart rate in a variety of arrhythmias. In this paper, logic cells of quantum cellular automata are utilized to design a pulse generator circuit in a heart oscillator, where power consumption and dimensions are minimal. An important feature of the proposed circuit is the ability to adjust the output pulse frequency. The efficiency of this circuit has been evaluated using QCAdesigner simulator and desirable results have been obtained in terms of power consumption level. The simulation results also show very low power consumption for the designed circuit. تفاصيل المقالة -

In QCA, configuration of charges plays the role which is played by current in CMOS. This replacement provides the significant advantages. Additionally, exclusive-or (XOR) gate is a useful building block in many important circuits such as full adder (FA). In this paper we propose a novel design for two-input XOR gate in QCA. Two-input XORs could be utilized in constructing three-input ones which are widely used. The proposed XOR gate is the smallest design among the two-input XORs and it achieves significant improvements in terms of complexity and latency in comparison to the only existing similarly designed gate. Contrary to the common designing method which uses the logic function of XOR, the gate is constructed based on explicit interactions between QCA cells. The simulation results have been verified using the QCADesigner. تفاصيل المقالة -

In this research we intend to provide a comprehensive design of 3-input majority gate in quantum cellular automata for all possible faults: misalignment, missing, dislocation, and redundancy so that low overhead is added to circuit. The gate is made up of both 90-degree and 45-degree cells.

The 3-input majority function and inverter gate are fundamental gates in the QCA technology, which all logical functions are produced based on them. Like CMOS technology, making the basic computational element such as an adder with QCA technology, is considered as one of the most important issues that extensive research have been done about it. In this paper, a new QCA full-adder based on coupled majority-minority and 5-input majority gates is introduced which its novel structure, appropriate design technique selection and its arrangement make it very suitable. The experimental results showed that the proposed QCA full-adder makes only 48 cells and the first output is obtained in the 0.05clock. Therefore, the presented QCA full-adder improves the number of cells and gains a speedup rate of 33% in comparison with the best previous robust QCA full-adders. In addition, temperature analysis of the QCA full-adders shows that our design is more robust compared with other suggested QCA full-adders. تفاصيل المقالة -

One of the common phenomenas in insulations is Partial Discharge (PD). Because of the high voltage stress, the weak section inside the insulator causes the partial discharge (PD), which is known as a local electrical breakdown. The maximum amplitude of PD could accelerate the destruction process of insulation material. Also, during practical applications in the power systems, voltages with different levels are used or created suddenly. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the effect of voltage characteristics on the PD. In this paper, the effect of DC, AC and impulse voltage on the maximum amplitude of PD are studied within the MATLAB Simulink platform. Finally, to show the effect of each voltage level on the PD, results are compared with each other in the single and multi cavity situations. The test materials for this research are epoxy resin and oil-impregnated paper. Also, this paper provides a comparison between two different insulation materials. تفاصيل المقالة -

Therefore, we proposed a new path to build nanoscale circuits such as Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA). This technology is always prone to failure due to its very small size. Therefore, designers always try to design fault-tolerant gates and provide methods to increase the reliability of QCA. By adding redundant cells, the possibility of some defects such as cell omission and cell addition is somewhat reduced. However, in the face of defects such as stuck-at 0/1 faults, Clock fault and bridging fault. We can greatly increase the fault tolerance by appropriate placement and using fault tolerant gates with a suitable structure. In this paper, we design the XOR/XNOR gate with the approach of preventing stuck-at 0/1 fault, clock fault, and bridging fault using the first NNI gate tolerating cell addition fault. تفاصيل المقالة -

Quantum Dot Cellular Automata (QCA) is a low-power, compact technology that is prone to various defects due to its small size. We can categorize these defects into three main groups: operational defects, manufacturing defects, and clocking defects. Using redundant cells, fault-tolerant gates, or changing the structure of the gates can improve the overall fault-tolerance of the circuit in some cases. However, increasing the fault-tolerance would lead to an increase in the occupied area and the delay of the gates. Therefore, designing a gate based on intercellular interactions with a minimum number of cells and maximum efficiency, which is also fault-tolerant, is a challenging task. In this paper, we present a new tile-shaped design for XOR and XNOR gates that is robust to the Missing cell, Extra cell, and Rotated cell defects by 25%, 55%, and 25%, respectively. That is why we call these gates TFXOR and TFXNOR, respectively. تفاصيل المقالة -

That is, every pixel of the image is associated with a cell of CA. RHDINTPM is composed of a two-phase filter. The first phase of the proposed method is a two-step noise detector so in the first step the corrupted pixels are diagnosed by the intensity of the minimum value and average Moore neighborhood pixels for central Pixel. In the second step, in order to increase accuracy in improving noise detection, the uncorrupted pixels remained from the first step are investigated by cellular automata. In the second phase of the method, the defective pixels of two-dimensional fuzzy cellular automata are restored using the structure of the Moore neighborhood. The experimental analysis demonstrates that the proposed filter is robust enough to very high levels of noise as high as 90% and preserves the meaningful detail of the image. Also, the proposed approach outperforms other representative filtering techniques in terms of image noise suppression and detail preservation. تفاصيل المقالة -
