This paper discusses issues in VLSI design and implementation of high performance datapath circuits. Of particular concern will he various types of multiplier and adder, which are fundamental to DSP operations. Performance comparison will be provided in terms of sampling speed, layout area, and in particular, power consumption, with techniques that may be applied to reduce power dissipation also suggested. As an example, a low power, high performance recursive filter achieved through bit-level pipelining technique is illustrated

This paper describes the design and implementation of an application specific instruction-set processor developed for embedded DSP applications. The instruction-set has an uniform size of 16 bits, and supports 3 types of instructions: Primitive, Complex, and Specific. To reduce code size and cycle count we introduce complex instructions that can be selected according to the application under consideration, which leads to 50% code size reduction maximally. The processor has two independent data memories to double the data throughput and the address space. The processor is synthesized by 0.6$\mu$m single-poly double-metal technology. Critical path simulation shows that the maximum frequency is 110MHz and total gate count is 132, 000.

It is general opinion that the future mobile multimedia networks will use different standards and a prospective solution to this problem will be software defined radio (SDR) techniques. SDR provides the flexibility to support multiple air interfaces and signal processing functions at the same time. Especially, digital signal processors and FPGAs are widely used for implementation of these adaptive and flexible functions of a baseband modem for SDR applications. Also, it is known that the modulation schemes of OCQPSK (Orthogonal Complex QPSK) and HPSK (Hybrid PSK) are used for IMT-2000 services of cdma2000 and WCDMA, respectively. Thus, in this paper, we design and implement an OCQPSK / HPSK modem using a DSP chip of Texas Instrument's TMS320C6701. One modulation scheme is operated by adaptive selection between the two schemes and 5 physical traffic channels differentiated by orthogonal codes are implemented in one DSP chip and each channel has 1Mbps data rates and 8Mcps chip rates.

In this paper, a video tracker with a TMS320C31 DSP is designed and implemented. It is intended to work with PC through PCI Bus and can be used in real-time applications. The DSP board is capable of grabbing image data from camera, and calculating the position of a target, and trackig its movement. The tracking situation can be displayed in a monitor and displacement of the movement is fed back to pan and tilt the camera. Experimental results show that the tracker implemented here works well in real applications.

In this paper, we design the hardware platform and implement the embedded software based on the FPGA and the DSP for the automotive 77GHz FMCW radar system. This embedded software is built into the DSP as the multi-tasking architecture to support the basic target detection algorithm and the Ethernet link. The designed GUI(Graphic User Interface) provides ability to adjust parameters associated with the radar performance, to monitor signal processing results, and to download the raw received signal. The designed platform can be used to develop the optimal detection algorithms for the various applications.

In this paper, we described the real-time implementation effort of MPEG-4 audio HVXC (Harmonic Vector eXcitation Coding) algorithm for very low bitrates, which has target applications from mobile communications to Internet telephony, on current high performance floating point TMS320C6701 DSP. We adopted a hardware structure for real-time operation. In order for software optimization, we used C- and assembly-language level optimizations for time-critical functional codes. Utilizing the internal program memory of the DSP as the program cache, the internal data memory overlap technique and DMA functionality, we could get a goal of realtime operation of HVXC codec both at 2 kbit/s and at 4 kbit/s. For an encoder at 2 kbit/s, the optimization ratio to original code is about 96 %. Finally, we got the subjective quality of MOS 2.45 at 2 kbit/s from an informal quality test.

Vocoders used in digital mobile phone adopt new improved algorithm to achieve better communication quality. Therefore the communication problem occurs between mobile phones using different vocoder algorithms. In this paper, the efficient implementation of 8kbps and 13kbps QCELP into one DSP chip to solve this problem is presented. We also describe the optimization method at each level, that is, algorithm-level, equation-level, and coding-level, to reduce the complexity for the QCELP vocoder algorithm implementation. The complexity in the codebook search-loop that is the main part for the QCELP algorithm complexity can be reduced about 50% by using these optimizations. The QCELP implementation with our DSP requires only 25 MIPS of computation for the 8kbps and 33 MIPS for the 13kbps ones. The DSP for our real-time implementation is a 16-bit fixed-point one specifically designed for vocoder applications and has a simple architecture compared to general-purpose ones in order to reduce the power consumption.

A single DSP implementation of 3D sound movement is described. With the use of a realtime 3D acoustic image localization algorithm, an efficient approach is devised for synthesizing the 3D sound movement by interpolating only two parameters of "delay" and "gain". Based on this algorithm, the realtime 3D sound synthesis is performed by a commercially available 16-bit fixed-point DSP with computational labor of 65 MIPS and memory space of 9.6k words, which demonstrates that the algorithm call be used even for the mobile applications.

The Diagnostic applications of Ultrasound are developed in many ways. In this paper, We measure the attenuation coeffient of biological tissue using DSP. This method is useful in tissue characterization with real time. In the future, We expect that this method coupling with the ultrasonic temperature dependence of biological tissue also is applied to hyperthermia.
