Multiplication is a fundamental arithmetic operation in many digital signal processing (DSP) and communication algorithms. The group CSD (GCSD) multiplier was recently proposed based on the variation of canonical signed digit (CSD) encoding and partial product sharing. This multiplier provides an efficient design when the multiplications are performed only with a few predetermined coefficients (e.g., FFT). In this paper, it is shown that, by exploiting the characteristics of the filter coefficients, GCSD multipliers can be used for the efficient implementation of time-multiplexed FIR filters.
