Discover how dataplane processors are designed to meet performance, cost, and power objectives while reducing the risk of ASIC design and increasing design flexibility. Designers have long understood how to use a single processor for the control functions in a SOC design. However, there are a lot of data-intensive functions that control processors cannot handle. Dataplane processors (DPUs) on the ...

The Super Eagle is a CDMA system-independent mobile measurement system that continuously surveys CDMA Pilot channel signals and reports their PN position and power profiles. Both cellular and PCS models are available. Measured profiles indicate the distributions of interference and multipath components as a function of relative power and delay spread. The correlated signal energy (Ec/Io), RF ...

One of the chief advantages of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) is capacity. Unfortunately, it is also the most difficult attribute to optimize if the system parame- ters and configuration are not correctly implemented. "Pilot pollution", caused by excessive overlap of coverage contours, can rob CDMA designs of capacity. From a practical point of view, placement of the base stations is ...

Correlators are an important basic building block in CDMA designs. Correlators are used in signal acquisition, tracking and demodulation circuits and occupy a substantial amount of system resources. The correlator design is often the determing factor in how fast a system can acquire a signal, tolerate interference and the magnitude of silicon required; optimizing correlators for a specific CDMA ...

There are plenty of really good, proven processor cores on the market today. But if you have more than simple control tasks, perhaps you’ve considered using a processor that you can customize. We’ll give you 10 good reasons why you should consider customizing your core in your next SOC design.
Customizable processor cores first hit the market in the late 1990s, and since then many improvements ...
