Architectures for Digital Signal Processing

Digital signal processing (DSP) covers a wide range of applicationssuch as signal acquisition, analysis, transmission, storage, andsynthesis. Special attention is needed for the VLSI (very largescale integration) implementation of high performance DSP systemswith examples from video and radar applications. This book providesbasic architectures for VLSI implementations of DSP tasks coveringarchitectures for application specific circuits and programmableDSP circuits. It fills an important gap in the literature byfocusing on the transition from algorithms specification toarchitectures for VLSI implementations. Areas coveredinclude:
* architectures for basic operations and elementary functions
* parallel processing and pipelining
* application specific array processors
* programmable digital signal processors
With the fusion of signal processing algorithms and VLSI circuitdesign it will assist digital signal processing architecturedevelopers. This book is of particular interest to electronicengineering and computer science students and will benefitpractitioners of digital signal processor circuit design. Basic CMOS Circuits.
