Generalized hardware and software platform based on heterogeneous multi-core architecture

Abstract

The invention discloses a heterogeneous multi-core framework-based universal software and hardware platform. The universal software and hardware platform comprises a heterogeneous hardware platform, an intermediate layer CORBA module and an application module, wherein the heterogeneous hardware platform comprises a first hardware platform consisting of a GPP, a second hardware platform consistingof an ARM and a DSP, and a third hardware platform consisting of the ARM and an FPGA; the application module runs in the first hardware platform, the second hardware platform and the third hardware platform, and finishes respective waveform data processing; and the intermediate layer CORBA module runs in the first hardware platform, the second hardware platform and the third hardware platform, andforms a universal hardware driver interface to enable waveform data to be subjected to logic interaction among the first hardware platform, the second hardware platform and the third hardware platform. According to the universal software and hardware platform, undifferentiated data transmission of the GPP, the DSP and the FPGA is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a design method of a physical layer in a software communication architecture, in particular to a software and hardware design method for a multi-core heterogeneous processor in a software communication architecture. Background technique [0002] According to the definition of the SCA standard specification, SCA devices are divided into underlying physical devices, device drivers, operating systems, core frameworks (CF), CORBA middleware, and waveform applications. Through the CORBA middleware and core framework, the waveform application-related and the underlying hardware devices are separated, so as to realize the separation of software and hardware. However, CORBA middleware can only run in GPP, and cannot run in DSP and FPGA. It is necessary to design a hardware-independent device driver MHAL to achieve the purpose of communicating with the device layer, which brings certain difficulties to the design. The hardware abstract...
