Reconfiguration of time-multiplexed binary trees for satellite communication

A time-multiplexed version of a binary tree channeliser can be implemented as a pipelined structure. Reconfiguration aspects of such a pipeline are considered in this paper. By developing a serial-module scheme for reconfiguration it is shown that the SM scheme offers better reliability than its equivalent binary trees. A digital filter is assumed as the basic processing element of the pipeline and the design trade-offs needed to implement a digital channeliser on a single chip using CMOS technology are described.<
