Reconfigurable Architectures for Wireless Systems: Design Exploration and Integration Challenges
نویسندگان
چکیده
ion layer (HAL). This HAL would allow for efficient hardware and software partitioning and for the use of appropriate modules to create an adaptable 4G system. Current wireless system architectural blocks do not have the design standardization and modularization to allow for efficient mix and match for reconfigurable (or cognitive) radio systems. Research in the use of design and architecture simulation tools, such as Xilinx System Generator, are leading to more efficient design reuse strategies.

Design of a novel congestion-aware communication mechanism for wireless NoC architecture in multicore systems
Hybrid Wireless Network-on-Chip (WNoC) architecture is emerged as a scalable communication structure to mitigate the deficits of traditional NOC architecture for the future Multi-core systems. The hybrid WNoC architecture provides energy efficient, high data rate and flexible communications for NoC architectures. In these architectures, each wireless router is shared by a set of processing core...

This paper introduces a design technique for coarse-grained reconfigurable architectures targeting digital signal processing (DSP) applications. The design procedure is analyzed in detail and an areatime-power efficient reconfigurable kernel architecture is presented. The proposed technique inlines flexibility into custom carry-save (CS) arithmetic datapaths exploiting a stable and canonical in...
متن کاملExploration de l'espace de conception des architectures reconfigurables
During many years, the designers just had two possibilities to design embedded systems; microprocessors and/or application specific integrated circuits. Nevertheless, a new possibility has appeared lately, the reconfigurable circuits. These systems have an important lack of tools at all design levels. Designers are then facing the difficult task of designing their target reconfigurable architec...
