Abstract

Two VLSI structures for the computation of the discrete Fourier transform are presented. The first structure is a pipeline working concurrently on different transforms. It is shown that it matches, within a constant factor, the theoretical lower bounds for area versus data rate. The second structure is a simple modification of the first one; it works on a single transform at a time, and it matches within a constant factor the theoretical area-time lower bounds.
