A Configurable Architecture for Efficient Sparse FIR Computation in Real-time Radio Frequency Systems

$A$
low-latency and high-throughput, configurable architecture for computing sparse Finite Impulse Response in real-time Radio Frequency domain is proposed. The massively parallel architecture uses distributed control in association with near-memory techniques to optimize area and power. It supports configurability in filter tap locations and handling of locally dense taps, making it more adaptable to Radio Frequency environments.
