Abstract

A data processor processes input data using fuzzy logic operations. The input data consists of n-bits (where n is a natural number greater than 2) and appears at a rate of .function.. The data processor outputs the processed data at a given number of bits and a given rate. The data processor includes a first converter (10), a fuzzy computing element (20), and a second converter (30). The first converter converts the input data into converted data consisting of m bits (where m is a natural number less than n and appearing at a rate of (2.sup.n-m).function.. The fuzzy computing element performs fuzzy logic operations on the converted data and sends the processed data to the second converter. The second converter converts the process converts the process data into output data at the given rate and with the given number of bits.
