It allows cells to operate continuously without waiting for acknowledgement signals back from the AER (Address Event Representation) arbitration circuitry. The module also implements aging of cell petitions i.e., old petitions to access to the AER bus are automatically discarded to give priority to the more recent ones and alleviate the bus congestion. The new arbitration scheme has been implemented and tested. A particular application scenario with an image sensor with spiking pixels that sense light continuously is explained. The sensing errors per event due to discontinued pixel operation can be minimized a factor 8.1. Experimental data obtained with real visual scenes are provided.}, publisher = {Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.}, keywords = {AER}, keywords = {event communication}, keywords = {arbitration}, keywords = {collision discarding}, keywords = {pipeline}, keywords = {fair arbitration}, keywords = {greedy arbiters}, title = {Pipeline AER arbitration with event aging}, doi = {10.1109/ISCAS.2017.8050977}, author = {Leñero Bardallo, Juan Antonio and Pérez Peña, Fernando and Carmona Galán, R. and Rodríguez Vázquez, A.}, }
