This paper is dedicated to the presentation of the architecture of a VLSI butterfly processing element, for computing FFT in serial arithmetic. This butterfly PE uses complex samples and weights, with real and imaginary parts represented separately in full fractional two's complement form. The PE is based on a compact serial/parallel to serial complex multiplier, which optimises complex multiplication by merging the generation and accumulation of partial products. The structure of the multiplier and the PE is presented; their performances are evaluated, including the possibility of reconfiguration, fault detection and fault tolerance.

Abstract
This paper is dedicated to the presentation of the architecture of a VLSI butterfly processing element, for computing FFT in serial arithmetic. This butterfly PE uses complex samples and weights, with real and imaginary parts represented separately in full fractional two's complement form. The PE is based on a compact serial/parallel to serial complex multiplier, which optimises complex multiplication by merging the generation and accumulation of partial products. The structure of the multiplier and the PE is presented; their performances are evaluated, including the possibility of reconfiguration, fault detection and fault tolerance.File in questo prodotto:
