Synthesis and Optimization of DSP Algorithms: describes approaches taken to synthesising structural hardware descriptions of digital circuits from high-level descriptions of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) algorithms. The book contains:-A tutorial on the subjects of digital design and architectural synthesis, intended for DSP engineers,-A tutorial on the subject of DSP, intended for digital designers,-A discussion of techniques for estimating the peak values likely to occur in a DSP system, thus enabling an appropriate signal scaling. Analytic techniques, simulation techniques, and hybrids are discussed.....
