A ring-processor based blind beamformer design for use in wireless sensor networks
Fan Xu, Guichang Zhong, D.D. Richard, Alan N. Willson · 2003
We present the architecture and VLSI implementation of a blind beamforming algorithm. An FIR filter based structure for eigenvector computations is proposed. We show that the structure can be optimally realized on a ring-processor based programmable multiprocessor IC. Chip characteristics and testing results for the IC are provided.
