Digital Design of Signal Processing Systems discusses a spectrum of
architectures and methods for effective implementation of algorithms in
hardware (HW). Encompassing all facets of the subject this book includes
conversion of algorithms from floating-point to fixed-point format,
parallel architectures for basic computational blocks, Verilog Hardware
Description Language (HDL), SystemVerilog and coding guidelines for
synthesis. The book also covers system level design of Multi Processor
System on Chip (MPSoC); a consideration of different design methodologies
including Network on Chip (NoC) and Kahn Process Network (KPN) based
connectivity among processing elements. A special emphasis is placed on
implementing streaming applications like a digital communication system
in HW. Several novel architectures for implementing commonly used
algorithms in signal processing are also revealed. With a comprehensive
coverage of topics the book provides an appropriate mix of examples to
illustrate the design methodology.

Key Features:

* A practical guide to designing efficient digital systems, covering
the complete spectrum of digital design from a digital signal processing
perspective
* Provides a full account of HW building blocks and their architectures,
while also elaborating effective use of embedded computational resources
such as multipliers, adders and memories in FPGAs
* Covers a system level architecture using NoC and KPN for streaming
applications, giving examples of structuring MATLAB code and its easy
mapping in HW for these applications
* Explains state machine based and Micro-Program architectures with
comprehensive case studies for mapping complex applications
* The techniques and examples discussed in this book are used in the award
winning products from the Center for Advanced Research in Engineering (CARE).
Software Defined Radio, 10 Gigabit VoIP monitoring system and Digital
Surveillance equipment has respectively won APICTA (Asia Pacific Information
and Communication Alliance) awards in 2010 for their unique and effective
designs.
