Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
The implementation flexibility of mixed-radix fast Fourier transform (FFT) enables dynamic radix combinations for multi-standard communication systems. However, conventional mixed-radix FFT designs exhibit computational resource redundancy when simultaneously supporting butterfly units of multiple radices, which results in suboptimal hardware resource utilization. This paper proposes a reconfigurable mixed-radix FFT processor incorporating an innovative reconfigurable butterfly unit design supporting radix-2/3/5 FFT operations and a multi-path parallel conflict-free access method. The redesigned butterfly unit enhances hardware resource efficiency through functionally heterogeneous architecture while eliminating access conflicts. Implemented and verified on a Xilinx XC7Z020CLG400-2 FPGA platform, comprehensive testing of the FFT processor system demonstrates a 25% reduction in digital signal processor (DSP) consumption and a 26% improvement in computational efficiency versus state-of-the-art memory-based FFT processors.
