Abstract
Introduction Mobile and personal communication systems, and multi-media are among the most prominently growing sectors of the electronics industry today. As an illustration, Figure 1 gives an indication of the volume of some personal communication applications in the European market. New business and home applications are emerging, using advanced communication media such as satellite links, cellular radio, or high-speed optical networks. The success of these developments will however depend to a great extent on the ability to realise complex digital signal processing functionalities in cost-efficient VLSI chips. 1990 1992 1994 1996 40 30 20 10 0 Million users Cordless Cellular Paging Private mobile Figure 1.
