Abstract
A new modem architecture that substantially minimizes the cost of adding features to the modem, and substantially minimizes the time overhead associated with the slave-like interface between the modem controller and the modem signal processor. The architecture enables the signal processor to directly access the controller's memory resources so that the signal processor can make most efficient use of its own internal expensive high-speed memory.
