Abstract :
2n-1 is one of the most commonly used moduli in residue number systems. In this paper, we propose a new method for designing modified Booth modulo 2n-1 multipliers, which, for even values of n, require one less partial product than the already known. CMOS implementations reveal that the proposed multipliers compared to earlier solutions offer savings up to 28.7 percent and up to 29.3 percent in the implementation area and execution delay, respectively.
