Abstract :
This article presents an improved Toom´s algorithm that allows hardware savings without slowing down the processing speed. We derive formulae for the number of multiplications and additions required to compute the linear convolution of size n = 2/sup /spl alpha//. We demonstrate the computational advantage of the proposed improved algorithm when compared to previous algorithms, such as the original matrix-vector multiplication and the FFT algorithms.
