Maximum normalised correlation core

Overview

The eSi-MNC core provides the control and data plane interfaces to a Maximum Normalised Correlation module. The signal processing in the core consists of two sliding energy estimates spaced by M samples, and a sliding autocorrelation estimate integrating over M samples

Key Features

  • Sliding window energy estimator on IQ input samples
  • Sliding window energy estimator on lagged IQ input samples
  • Sliding autocorrelation between the IQ input and lagged IQ input samples.
  • Detection threshold for |ACF| > energy
  • Correction can be held or restarted under APB control.
  • AXI4-Streaming inputs and outputs
  • APB configuration
  • Verilog 2001

Benefits

  • Simple standard interfacing
  • Low-gate count

Applications

  • Multi-standard wireless receivers
  • Software defined radios (SDR) accelerator

Deliverables

  • RTL
  • Testbench
  • Synthesis scripts
  • Documentation
  • MATLAB and C++ bit exact model
