ON THE SYSTOLIC IMPLEMENTATION OF WAVE DIGITAL-FILTERS

Wave digital filters are modeled after classical filter networks and have excellent performance with respect to classical criteria. On the other hand, the advent of VLSI technology has made algorithm-oriented digital structures practical and cost-effective. Such concurrent architectures are the VLSI array processors which meet the modern DSP requirements for fast and large-volume signal processing. In this paper these two distinct areas are combined in order to obtain fast systolic implementations of the wave digital filters that are appropriate for the real-time demanding signal processing applications.
