DSP for FPGAs

The DSP for FPGAs course will review DSP fundamentals from the perspective of implementation within the FPGA fabric. Particular emphasis will be given to highlighting the cost, with respect to both resources and performance, associated with the implementation of various DSP techniques and algorithms.

Content

  • FPGA Technology
  • FPGA Elements for DSP
  • DSP Arithmetic Essentials
  • Digital Filtering for FPGAs
  • Frequency Domain Processing
  • Digital Communications & FPGAs
  • Adaptive DSP Algorithms
  • Timing & Synchronisation
  • Embedded Processors for FPGAs
  • Hands-on Laboratory Sessions

Audience

Analogue, RF, digital, DSP or FPGA/ASIC engineers who are interested in knowing the relevant design strategies and philosophies for implementing algorithms and applications on FPGAs will find the course beneficial.

Event Aim

To present theory, algorithms, design techniques and actual practicalities of the implementation of DSP algorithms and digital communications architectures using FPGA technology.

Presentation

This is an intensive 4 day course which will educate using a comprehensive set of notes on DSP for FPGAs. Key points will be lectured upon with derivations and technical details provided in the course notes for later self study. Following each lecture, hands-on lab sessions will be run using Xilinx FPGA hardware and software.

The course format is: 50% Lectures | 40% Hands-on Labs (FPGA Software and Hardware) | 10% Demonstartion

Pre-requisites

This course has been carefully designed to present the complex mathematical theory often associated with DSP in an intuitive and straightforward style to a wide audience of scientists, engineers, project managers and even marketing staff. The following prior experience is useful but not essential:

  • Fundamentals of DSP
  • Basic communication systems
  • Bachelor level mathematics
