An Efficient Wireless iBCI Headstage with Adaptive ADC Sample Rate

Implantable Brain-Computer Interfaces (iBCIs) are increasingly pivotal in clinical and daily applications. However, wireless iBCIs face severe constraints in power consumption and data throughput. To mitigate these bottlenecks, we propose a wireless iBCI headstage featuring adaptive ADC sampling and spike detection. Distinguishing our design from traditional application-layer compression, we employ a server-driven architecture that achieves source-level efficiency. Specifically, the server learns an optimal, electrode-specific sample rate vector to dynamically reconfigure the ADC hardware. This strategy reduces data volume directly at the acquisition layer (ADC and amplifier) rather than relying on computationally intensive post-digitization processing. Extensive experiments across diverse subjects and arrays demonstrate a power reduction of up to 40 mW and a 3.2x decrease in FPGA resource utilization, all while maintaining or exceeding decoding accuracy in both motor and visual tasks. This design offers a highly practical solution for long-term in-vivo recording.

Generating HSR Bogie Vibration Signals via Pulse Voltage-Guided Conditional Diffusion Model

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) for producing realistic signals, have substantially improved fault diagnosis algorithms in various Internet of Things (IoT) systems. However, challenges such as training instability and dynamical inaccuracy limit their utility in high-speed rail (HSR) bogie fault diagnosis. To address these challenges, we introduce the Pulse Voltage-Guided Conditional Diffusion Model (VGCDM). Unlike traditional implicit GANs, VGCDM adopts a sequential U-Net architecture, facilitating multi-phase denoising diffusion for generation, which bolsters training stability and mitigate convergence issues. VGCDM also incorporates control pulse voltage by cross-attention mechanism to ensure the alignment of vibration with voltage signals, enhancing the Conditional Diffusion Model's progressive controlablity. Consequently, solely straightforward sampling of control voltages, ensuring the efficient transformation from Gaussian Noise to vibration signals. This adaptability remains robust even in scenarios with time-varying speeds. To validate the effectiveness, we conducted two case studies using SQ dataset and high-simulation HSR bogie dataset. The results of our experiments unequivocally confirm that VGCDM outperforms other generative models, achieving the best RSME, PSNR, and FSCS, showing its superiority in conditional HSR bogie vibration signal generation. For access, our code is available at https://github.com/xuanliu2000/VGCDM.
