Research On Embedded Application Platform Based On OMAP

Positron Emission Tomography is one of the most high-level nuclear medical technology. It is also acknowledged as one of the most advanced medical diagnostic imaging equipment. This thesis applied advanced Open Multimedia Application Platform (OMAP) to data acquisition and coincidence processing system of PET system. As a prospective study, this thesis constructed a general embedded application platform based on OMAP. So this thesis laid the foundation for the application of OMAP in PET system and other multimedia sytems.This thesis took OMAP 5912 OSK as the target module, explained the full procedures of how to porting embedded linux OS on OMAP in detail, including establishing the cross compile environment, porting the bootlaoder, porting the kernel and porting the file system. Discussed several key issues such as the software architecture of OMAP, the work principle of DSP/BIOS bridge, the application design methods and so on, then realized a digital audio system on OMAP. Subsequently, based on embedded Linux OS on OMAP, ported the embedded Graphic User Interface ---- Qt/Emdedded and introduced the application design based on Qt/Embedded. Finally, a summary of this thesis was made.
