“…By making the design of the processors more complex, it seems possible (e.g. Suros and Montagne [21]) to coalesce the three processors per stage into two, both of them operating 100 percent of the time. However, the present design uses the non-operation time of the processors to compute immediately successive blocks of data without interruption or data mixing.…”
The use of the Cooley-Tukey algorithm for computing the 1-d FFT lends itself to a particular matrix factorization which suggests direct implementation by lmearly-connected systolic arrays. Here we present a new systolic architecture that embodies this algorithm. This implementation requires a smaller number of processors and a smaller number of memory cells than other recent implementations, as well as having all the advantages of systolic arrays. For the implementation of the decimation-in-frequency case, word-serial data input allows continuous real-time operation without the need of a serial-toparallel conversion device. No control or data stream switching is necessary. Computer simulation of this architecture was done in the context of a 1024 point D m witb a fixed point processor, and CMOS processor implementation has started. Index Terms-Fast Fourier "sform, on-line processing, systolic arrays, VLSI.

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.
