Abstract
This paper presents the qualitative precipitation estimation (QPE) based on data from the Himawari satellite and distributed-domain specific architecture. The QPE process consists of receiving and managing the raw data from the satellite every 10 minutes and calculating the rain-temperature relationship. The aim of this research is to decrease the QPE processing time by using distributed domain-specific architecture (DDSA), with 9 small computing boards are connected to a gigabit switch. Instead of using a high-performance PC, this distributed embedded system is also suitable for processing interval data receiving from the satellite every 10 minutes. The experimental results show that the proposed fast-satellite data processing algorithm is optimal for QPE processing on the DDSA platform, requiring 115.53 seconds processing time and low power consumption.
期刊介绍:
Modelling and Simulation in Engineering aims at providing a forum for the discussion of formalisms, methodologies and simulation tools that are intended to support the new, broader interpretation of Engineering. Competitive pressures of Global Economy have had a profound effect on the manufacturing in Europe, Japan and the USA with much of the production being outsourced. In this context the traditional interpretation of engineering profession linked to the actual manufacturing needs to be broadened to include the integration of outsourced components and the consideration of logistic, economical and human factors in the design of engineering products and services.
