<title>Naval Research Laboratory flex processor for radar signal processing</title>

Abstract

This paper describes a programmable radar signal processor architecture developed at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL). The design incorporates T.I. TMS320C30 programmable digital signal processor devices, Xilinx programmable gate arrays, TRW FFT devices, and a parallel array of Inmos Transputer microprocessors. The architecture is extremely flexible and is applicable to a wide variety of applications.
