Design and Implementation of High-Performance FPGA Signal Processing Datapaths for Software Defined Radios Chris H. Dick Xilinx Inc. 2100 Logic Drive San Jose CA 95124 Henrik M. Pedersen Center for Fast Ultrasound Imaging, Dept. of Information Technology, Techn. Univ. Denmark 1 Introduction The communications infrastructure that has become so much a part of daily life is expanding at an exponential rate. Figure 1 illustrates the diverse range of communication technologies used virtually on a daily basis: wireless cellular (high and low mobility users), satellite, and microwave links. To meet consumer, business and life-style demands infrastructure suppliers must build sophisticated systems that no longer simply support telephony services, but provide voice, high bit-rate data, video, image and multimedia capability. These systems must also interact with sophisticated systems like the internet. Human nature dictates that there will be a range of communication standards that evolve. There will also be a range of user terminals that need to be connected to this rich communications tapestry, including cell phones, video phones, satellite phones, PDAs, portable computers and other nomadic computing devices. To flourish and succeed in this dynamic environment equipment suppliers must build highly flexible systems that operate across multiple wireless and wired network standards. They must be
