Abstract

Many parallel versions of the Cooley-Tukey FFT algorithm have been proposed. Most of these algorithms deal with FFT computation as multiple stage calculations with data permutation between stages. This requires extensive interprocessor communications. To reduce or eliminate the interprocessor communications, Gertner, Tolimieri and their colleagues [9-12] proposed a new M-D FFT algorithm, called the Reduced Transform Algorithm(RTA). In this paper, we will extend the idea of RTA to the M-D Cooley-Tukey (C-T) FFT algorithm and M-D Good-Thomas (G-T) prime factor algorithm. A new implementation strategy of these algorithms will be discussed which requires no interprocessor communication. Finally, a hybrid algorithm which combines the C-T or G-T algorithm with RTA will be described.
