This paper presents an area-efficient fast Fourier transform (FFT) processor for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing systems based on multi-path delay commutator architecture. This paper proposes a data scheduling scheme to reduce the number of complex constant multipliers. The proposed mixed-radix multi-path delay commutator FFT processor can support 128-, 256-, and 512-point FFT sizes. The proposed processor was synthesized using the Samsung 65-nm CMOS standard cell library. The proposed processor with eight parallel data paths can achieve a high throughput rate of up to 2.64 GSample/s at 330 MHz.
