Introduction

The objective of this course is to present the basics of real-time signal processing using hardware or VLSI architecture. The concept of real-time  processing would be emphasized in the course. Various hardware  architectures and approaches for processing signals in real time would be  discussed. Optimum VLSI system design and the trade-offs would be  elaborated.

This course is part of:

- Graduate Certificate in Signal and Media Processing
- FlexiMasters in Signal and Media Processing

At the end of the course, learners  would understand the need of different architecture for  implementing hardware systems for real-time processing. Techniques for designing systems to achieve the required throughput using VLSI  architecture would be acquired. In particular, basic skills required for designing and developing hardware architecture for system design would be  achieved. These skills are useful in real-time system design in industrial applications.

Hardware for Pipelining, Scheduling, Feedback problem, Arithmetic hardware, Algorithm strength reduction and transforms, Parallel recursive  filters, Retiming, Unfolding, Folding.

For engineers who wish to upgrade their technical knowledge and skills  in the area of digital signal processing, which can be  used in the Infocomm industry for  hardware design of any real-time signal processing task.
