Abstract :
The concept of merged arithmetic is introduced and applied to signal processing. The basic idea involves synthesizing a composite arithmetic function (e.g., a complex multiply) directly instead of decomposing it into multiply and add operations as is conventional practice. This approach results in a simpler design which is also faster.
