ECE-NTUA Ph.D. student received the MOCAST 2019 Best Paper Award


We are pleased to announce that ECE-NTUA Ph.D. student Konstantinos Papafotis, and his supervisor, Associate Professor Paul-Peter Sotiriadis, received the Best Paper Award at the International Conference on Modern Circuits and Systems Technologies (MOCAST) on Electronics and Communications that was held in Thessaloniki, Greece, on 13-15 May 2019.

The award winning paper titled “Computationally Efficient Calibration Algorithm for Three-Axis Accelerometer and Magnetometer”.

Abstract: In this work we propose an algorithm for calibration of both 3-axis accelerometers and 3-axis magnetometers based on a computationally efficient modification of a popular calibration method. The proposed algorithm achieves fast convergence without requiring any external piece of equipment like a turntable. The evaluation of the proposed algorithm is done using experimental data.
