Abstract :
This paper concerns the realization of an adaptable Protocol Processing Unit (PPU) targeting reconfigurable SoCs in mobile communication applications. The PPU is based on our design technique for dense-coded programmable Finite State Machines. This approach reduces programming costs by combining memory-based function generators with reconfigurable logic. Furthermore, we added custom modules that implement application-specific logic and arithmetic operations to achieve proper results.
