Problems solved by technology

Traditional hardware accelerators are typically "hardwired" to perform specific functions, so moving functionality from a DSP to a hardware accelerator will result in a loss of flexibility (compared to running software on a DSP) and if functional requirements arise Changes in the main hardware requirements change

Abstract

The invention relates to a hardware accelerator including a first buffer, a second buffer, address generator(s), a translation read-only memory (ROM), a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) generator, a convolutional encoder and a controller. The first and second buffers store information bits. The address generator(s) generate(s) an address for accessing the first buffer, the second buffer and a shared memory architecture (SMA). The translation ROM is used in generating a translated address for accessing the first buffer and the second buffer. The controller sets parameters for the CRC generator, the convolutional encoder and the address generator, and performs a predefined sequence of control commands for channel processing, such as reordering, block coding, parity tailing, puncturing, convolutional encoding, and interleaving, on the information bits by manipulating the information bits while moving the information bits among the first buffer, the second buffer, the SMA, the CRC generator, and the convolutional encoder.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to wireless communication systems. More specifically, the present invention relates to a symbol rate hardware accelerator for wireless communications. Background technique [0002] A wireless transmit / receive unit (WTRU) for a second generation (2G) wireless communication system typically includes a digital signal processor (DSP) for signal processing and symbol rate processing. A 2G WTRU typically has a control processor (eg, Advanced RISC Group (ARM)) for Layer 1 (L1) control and protocol stack processing. [0003] figure 1 is a block diagram of a legacy WTRU 100 for 2G systems such as Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) and Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution (EDGE). The WTRU 100 includes: a channel processing unit 110 , a pulse generation and modulation unit 120 , a transmitter 130 and an antenna 140 . The channel processing unit 110 includes: a block encoding unit 1...
