Communication channels have always been errorprone. To counteract these transmission errors, Error Detection and Correction Codes have been used for a long time. To test the effectiveness of these codes, different fault models can be used. This paper presents two fault models: a systematic fault injection model and an EMI fault model. Both models resemble different kinds of disturbance sources, such as thermal noise, degrading components or electromagnetic interference. By combining both models, as is the aim of this paper, a comprehensive study on the vulnerabilities within a communication channel can be made.

The work presents the project of ultra-low power sensor node for IoT applications with LoRa interface, which was successfully designed and tested. The main features of this design is its low power consumption, long distance communication and secure data transmission. By using external nano timer TPL5110 it is possible to reduce the end node consumption current Ic from 4.2uA to 290nA. This increases battery life and sensor autonomous operation.

FPGA implementation of Boolean functions with multiplexers using a laboratory board, based on Spartan-6 devices, is presented in the paper. It will be used in the training of electrical engineers in the courses “Digital Circuits” and “Pulse and Digital Devices” introducing students of electrical specialties to the main topics in digital electronics. One of the topics is “Implementation of Boolean functions using multiplexers” and using the laboratory board makes the topic more attractive and easier for assimilation by the students.

The current paper discusses the design of the pollution and communication system which is capable to measure the H2S levels in very low concentrations in ppb range. The system also reads the temperature and humidity values from the analog output values and send the measured values to the remote server via GSM/GPRS connection, which are stored in MySQL table for further analysis and visualization. The ultra-low noise design of the AD conversion is proposed. To achieve better sensitivity all parts of the design such as AD converter, voltage reference and power supply IC are specially selected towards the better noise characteristics.

In this paper the features of temperature control of aluminum electrode during the anodization are discussed. Temperature monitoring in this exothermic process is a necessary condition for obtaining a high ordered nanoporous structure. A new electrochemical cell with a Peltier device working in cooling or heating mode was proposed. Time dependences of the electrolyte and Peltier element temperatures without and during anodizing process were presented. The results demonstrated that the cell construction allows precise control of the electrode temperature.

There are several guiding methods for calculating one of the main reliability indicators-failure rate of electronic components. Generally, methods are divided into three groups: methods with multiplicative pi-factors, methods with additive pi-factors and combined methods. The present paper compares the results and applicability of two methods - MIL-HDBK-217F and FIDES, which over the last years have established themselves as basic methods.
