The Feedforward Short-Time Fourier Transform
Mario Garrido · IEEE Transactions on Circuits & Systems II Express Briefs · 2016
This brief presents the feedforward short-time Fourier transform (STFT). This new approach is based on reusing the calculations of the STFT at consecutive time instants. This leads to significant savings in hardware components with respect to fast Fourier transform based STFTs. Furthermore, the feedforward STFT does not have the accumulative error of iterative STFT approaches. As a result, the proposed feedforward STFT presents an excellent tradeoff between hardware utilization and performance.
