Large Multi-Processor Systems-on-Chip use Networks-on-Chip with a high degree of reusability and scalability for message communication. Therefore, network infrastructure is a cruc...
—This paper presents the VLSI architecture of an OFDM baseband transceiver for wireless communications. The open-/closed-loop carrier recovery achieves the stepping frequency acq...
Due to the breakdown of Dennardian scaling, the percentage of a silicon chip that can switch at full frequency is dropping exponentially with each process generation. This utiliza...
Multicore processors promise higher throughput at lower power consumption than single core processors. Thus in the near future they will be widely used in hard real-time systems as...
