摘要: Complex number arithmetic occurs frequently in Digital Signal Processing. A Butterfly usually constitutes at least of one complex product and sum. The standard binary implementation a requires best three real multiplations five additions. Besides, the two components must be tracked down every stage. In past, many authors have proposed different digital representations, order to cirmcumvent these problems. choice any particular based on factors: completeness, complexity implementation, ease conversion from binary. this paper, Knuth's representation or "Qua-ter-Imaginary" is revisited its practical merits evaluated. We then propose design some arithmetics describe details their hardware implementation. additional also described. existence overhead highly justifiable systems.
