Rapid Digital Architecture Design of Computationally Complex Algorithms
Abstract
Traditional digital design techniques hardly keep up with the rising abundance of programmable circuitry found on recent Field-Programmable Gate Arrays. Therefore, the novel Rapid Data Type-Agnostic Digital Design Methodology (RDAM) elevates the design perspective of digital design engineers away from the register-transfer level to the algorithmic level. It is founded on the capabilities of High-Level Synthesis tools. By consequently working with data type-agnostic source codes, the RDAM brings significant simplifications to the fixed-point conversion of algorithms and the design of complex-valued architectures. Signal processing applications from the field of Compressed Sensing illustrate the efficacy of the RDAM in the context of multi-user wireless communications. For instance, a complex-valued digital architecture of Orthogonal Matching Pursuit with rank-1 updating has successfully been implemented and tested- Digital Design, Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), High-Level Synthesis (HLS), Fixed-Point Arithmetic, Signal Processing, Wireless Communications, Compressed Sensing (CS), Orthogonal Matching Pursuit (OMP)
