A general approach to design VLSI arrays for the multi-dimensional discrete Hartley transform
Jiun-In Guo, Chi‐Min Liu, Chein-Wei Jen · 2002
In this paper, a general memory-based approach to design VLSI arrays for the multi-dimensional (M-D) discrete Hartley transform (DHT) with any length is proposed. There are four parts of this approach: (1) a new M-D DHT formulation, (2) cyclic convolution representation, (3) systolic array realization, and (4) memory-based implementation. Deriving a new M-D DHT formulation avoids the undesirable overhead required in formal designs. Taking cyclic convolution provides high computing parallelism and low computation complexity. Using systolic array realisation results in high computing speeds and low I/O cost. Adopting the memory-based implementation yields low hardware cost and low power dissipation. In summary the proposed approach will lead to efficient and high-performance VLSI array designs for the M-D DHT.>
