The Programmable Matched Filter: A Design Study.

Abstract

The Programmable Matched Filter was envisioned as a flexible approach toward real-time, multi-dimensional matched filtering problems. Its design features multiple, parallel arithmetic elements communicating with multiple memories via a crossbar switch at a clock rate of 16.7 MHz. The machine will sustain a throughput rate of more than 500 million real operations per second, or more than six Cray-1 computers. The extensive use of low-dissipation CMOS technology in large scale integrated circuits yields an estimated total of 5200 integrated circuits, dissipating less than one kilowatt, occupying 0.2 cubic meters and weighing approximately fifty kilograms.
