Abstract : The continous and fast development in communication technology demands high flexibility and short product cycles. In addition, demanding signal processing algorithms often exceed the performance of available digital signal processor (DSP) cores. This paper introduces a novel vector signal processor architecture that can achieve these processing and flexibility demands. In contrast to traditional vector processors, our design improves the utilization of scalar algorithms.
