Embodiment 1

[0059] Assume that the maximum data parallelism P that the FFT processor can access in parallel is 16. And the FFT processor uses the mixed base algorithm to decompose the N-point FFT operation into m-level butterfly operations:

[0060] N = N 1 N 2 ... N m n = N m N m - 1 ... N 2 n 1 + ... + ...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of FFT (fast Fourier transform) processors, and discloses a block-floating-point method for a FFT processor. The block-floating-point method includes the steps: performing corresponding operations for data blocks of the level in some level of the FFT processor; performing corresponding zooming operations for the data blocks according to the operation results, calculating out block-floating-point indexes of the data blocks of the level, and storing the block-floating-point indexes according to accessing formulas of the block-floating-point indexes; reading the block-floating-point indexes according to the accessing formulas of the block-floating-point indexes in nest level of some level of the FFT processor, and performing corresponding aligned operations according to the block-floating-point indexes. The block-floating-point method has the advantage that sizes of the data blocks can be properly adjusted as required.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of FFT processors, in particular to a block floating-point method of an FFT processor. Background technique [0002] FFT is a fast implementation of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT), which converts data between the time and frequency domains. In the storage-based fixed-point FFT processor, due to the limited word length of the data in the memory, the calculation results of the arithmetic unit usually need to be scaled before being stored back into the memory. However, this will cause precision loss to the calculation results, that is, FFT The more stages required for the operation and the larger the base, the greater the loss of the accuracy of the final calculation result. [0003] Based on this consideration, it is necessary to use block floating-point technology to solve the precision loss caused by scaling. [0004] In existing block floating-point techniques for memory-based FFT processors, the si...
