The VLSI system for signal processing course focuses on the hardware implementation of signal processing systems on SoC (system-on-chip) used for communications, compression, encryption, and coding applications. Topics include signal processing algorithms, principles of datapath design, FIR and IIR filter architectures, communication systems including OFDM and multirate signal processing, fast transforms and algorithms including FFT, DCT, Wavelet transform, and Walsh-Hadamard transform, computer arithmetic methods including Galois fields, residue number systems, distributed arithmetic, canonic signed digit systems and reduced adder graph algorithms.
