چکیده
In this paper, we present a full precision floating-point Cordic algorithm and a correponding word-serial Cordic architecture. The extension to existing block floating-point Cordic algorithms is in a floating-point representation for the angle. The angle is represented as a combination of exponent, micro-rotation bits and two bits to indicate prerotations over 2 and radians.

Complex Logarithmic Number System Arithmetic Using High-Radix Redundant CORDIC Algorithms
This paper describes the application of high radix redundant CORDIC algorithms to complex logarithmic number system arithmetic. It shows that a CLNS addition can be performed with approximately the same hardware as a high-radix CORDIC operation. A design example comparable to single precision floating point has been designed and simulated.
متن کاملA Low-Cost Floating Point Vectoring Algorithm Based on CORDIC∗
In this paper we develop a CORDIC-based floating-point vectoring algorithm which reduces significantly the amount of microrotation steps as compared to the conventional algorithm. The overhead required to accomplish this is minimized by the introduction of an angle selection function which considers only a few of the total amount of bits used to represent the vector being rotated. At the same t...
متن کاملA Cordic Argument Reduction Method with Regular Architecture and Unlimited Convergence Domain
One of the main problems of the CORDIC algorithm is the limited convergence domain, in which the functions can be calculated. Two different approaches can be employed to overcome this constraint: first, an argument reduction method and, second, an expansion of the CORDIC convergence domain. While the first approach requires significant processing overhead due to the need for divisions, the seco...
متن کاملFPGA Optimizations for a Pipelined Floating-Point Exponential Unit
The large number of available DSP slices on new-generation FPGAs allows for efficient mapping and acceleration of floating-point intensive codes. Numerous scientific codes heavily rely on executing the exponential function. To this end, we present the design and implementation of a pipelined CORDIC/TD-based (COrdinate Rotation DIgital Computer/Table Driven) Exponential Approximation Unit (EAU) ...
متن کاملEfficient Double-Precision Cosine Generation
The trigonometric function of cos(θ) plays an important role in communication systems, digital signal processing systems, and graphical systems. This paper presents a technique for generating the cosine of an angle that is more computationally efficient than the CORDIC algorithm and its many variants for double-precision floating point calculations. A hardware design implementation of the cosin...
