Abstract

A vector slot processor that is capable of supporting multiple signal processing operations for multiple demodulation standards is provided. The vector slot processor includes a plurality of micro execution slot (MES) that performs the multiple signal processing operations on the high speed streaming inputs. Each of the MES includes one or more n-way signal registers that receive the high speed streaming inputs, one or more n-way coefficient registers that store filter coefficients for the multiple signal processing, and one or more n-way Multiply and Accumulate (MAC) units that receive the high speed streaming inputs from the one or more n-way signal registers and filter coefficients from one or more n-way coefficient registers. The one or more n-way MAC units perform a vertical MAC operation and a horizontal multiply and add operation on the high speed streaming inputs.
