This paper presents the implementation and performance comparison of the Booth encoding technique and Wallace Tree reduction scheme on Vedic architecture. The radix-4 Booth encoder is widely used to enhance the multiplication speed as it has the capability to reduce the number of partial products generated by half. Vedic multiplier partitions the inputs into two blocks to speed up the partial product generation and Wallace Tree reduction scheme speed up the partial product addition process by eliminating the carry chain of the addition. Radix-4 Booth encoding scheme Vedic multiplier with and without Wallace Tree partial product reduction scheme for signed and unsigned multiplication was designed and synthesized in Synopsys 130 nm technology. For unsigned multiplier, the Booth-Vedic multiplier is 37.29% faster and 26.13% smaller while the Booth-Vedic-Wallace multiplier is 39.79% faster and 28.81% smaller when compared with Vedic multiplier. The performance of both multipliers was dropped when used in signed multiplication due to signed extension during the partial product addition process. All the multiplier is functionally verified using modified testbench that is based on the concept of UVM testbench.
