This paper describes how multimedia applications will be enabled in 2.5 and 3G wireless terminals thanks to the efficiency of the DSP core embedded in the TI OMAP platform. OMAP H/W architecture will be described with an emphasis on how multimedia applications (video, audio, speech) will benefit from this advanced architecture. The advantages provided by a combined RISC/DSP architecture, compared to a single RISC architecture, for multimedia mobile applications will be depicted.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
