Nguyen Viet Khang
I am an Electrical Engineering student specializing in Control Engineering and Automation at HCM International University - VNUHCM. My work focuses on embedded C systems, high-speed Verilog/SystemVerilog RTL digital signal processing hardware, FPGA microprocessors, and autonomous marine robotics.
Catamaran Path-Following & Steering Control
This real-time physics engine models a double-hulled Catamaran Vessel skimming a river. The dual thrusters deliver differential propulsion. To steer toward spawned trash particles, a closed-loop Yaw PID Controller computes the thrust difference. Click to add garbage and tune the PID gains!
Technical Projects & Research
Double-Hulled Autonomous Skimmer
Designed the mechanical layout in SolidWorks and engineered an auto-tuned PID steering algorithm and Kalman filter for stability. Developed the differential propulsion systems and dynamic responses to steer and gather waterborne debris.
Parameterizable FIR / IIR Filters
Wrote modular, parameterizable RTL blocks in Verilog and SystemVerilog to implement finite (FIR) and infinite (IIR) impulse response filters. Developed verification testbenches simulating noisy data feeds to validate filter mathematics.
FPGA Stepper & Sensor Controller
Coded a high-speed PUL/DIR stepper motor controller module in VHDL on FPGA. Integrated a hardware SPI controller block to capture analog load cell readings via a secondary high-frequency ADC, matching strict real-time requirements.
Pipelined RISC-V Core Core
Designed and simulated a multi-stage pipelined microprocessor implementing a subset of the open-source RISC-V ISA. Coded the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), standard register file, pipeline stages, and hazard detection in SystemVerilog.
