Abstract :
A multitude of existing and evolving cell phone standards, coupled with the need to react quickly to market requirements, is radically changing the system architect´s task.Two alternative approaches to classic ASIC-centered and DSP-assisted designs have emerged: reconfigurable architectures and DSP-centered and accelerator-assisted architectures.
