Abstract

The application of reconfigurable computing to exploit the inherent serialism in DSP algorithms is investigated with the aim of building cost-effective, real-time hardware. The DSP algorithm is expected to be decomposed so that the most compute intensive and data flow oriented part is separated from the less compute intensive and more control flow oriented part. The different modules in the compute intensive part are expected to be serialized and implemented on a reconfigurable platform. The proposed architecture consists of an array of a minimum of two Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). The FPGAa are grouped in two sets such that when one set executes the current batch of modules the second set could be configured to execute the next batch of modules. The control flow oriented part of the algorithm is implemented on a DSP processor.© (1995) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
