This paper presents an architectural view of designing a digital filter. The main idea is to design a reconfigurable filter for reducing dynamic
power consumption. By considering the input variation’s we reduce the order of the filter considering the coefficient are fixed. The filter is implemented
using mentor graphics using TSMC .18um technology. The power consumption is decreased in the rate of 16% from the conventional model with a slight
increase in area overhead. If the filter coefficients are fixed then the power can be reduced up to 18% and the area overhead can also be reduced from the
reconfigurable architecture.
Optimized FIR filter design using Truncated Multiplier TechniqueIJMER
In this paper we have proposed an efficient way of FIR filter design using truncated multiplier technique. The Multiplication operation is performed using Multiple Constant Multiplication Accumulation Truncation (MCMAT) technique. The proposed multiplier design is based on the Wallace tree compressor (WTC). As a result it offers significant improvements in area, delay and power when compared with normal Carry Propagation Addition (CPA). Usually the product of two numbers appears as output in the form of LSB and MSB. The LSB part is truncated and compressed using MCMAT technique. The proposed design produces truncation error which is not more than 1 ulp (unit of least position). While implementing the proposed method experimentally, there is no need of any error compensation circuits and the final output is precised. Hence the area can be saved and the power is also reduced.
Design of Optimized FIR Filter Using FCSD Representation IJEEE
This paper presents the design and implementation of an eight order efficient FIR filter for wireless communication system. In this work, factored canonical signed digit representation (FCSD) is used for representing the filter coefficients in order to reduce the design complexity, area and delay of the FIR filter. Complexity of the system has been reduced by replacing binary coefficients with FCSD representation. Further area and delay has been improved by replacing multiplication operation with add and shift method where carry save adder (CSA) is used for addition of two numbers and barrel shifter is used for shifting the data words. Representation of coefficient in the FCSD format along with fastest adder and shifter improves the performance of the system. FIR filter has been designed using an equiripple method in MATLAB and further synthesized on Spartan 3E XC3S500E target FPGA device. Simulation results show that optimized FCSD based FIR filter offers a less number of slices, look up tables (LUTs) and flip-flops as compared to CSD and conventional FCSD based FIR filter, in addition to enhanced performance.
This project describes a novel architecture based on Recursive Running Sum (RRS) filter implementation for wire and wireless data processing. UARTs are used for asynchronous serial data communication between remote embedded systems. If physical channel is noisy then, serial data bits get corrupted during transmission. The UART core described here, utilizes recursive running sum filter to remove noisy samples. Input data signal is directly sampled with system clock and samples are accumulated over a window size. The window size is user programmable and it should be set to one tenth of required bit period. The intermediate data bit is decoded using magnitude comparator. The advantage of this architecture is that baud rate is decided by the window size so there is no need of any external “timer module” which is normally required for standard UARTs. The Recursive Running Sum (RRS) filter architecture with programmable window size of M is designed and modules are implemented with VHDL language. This project implementation includes many applications in wireless data communication Systems like RF, Blue tooth, WIFI, ZigBee wireless sensor applications. Total coding written in VHDL language. Simulation in Modelsim Simulator, Synthesis done by XILINX ISE 9.2i. Synthesis result is verified by the Chipscope. Input signal given from the keyboard and output is seen by the help of HyperTerminal.

Analysis of various mcm algorithms for reconfigurable rrc fir filtereSAT Journals
Abstract
Low complexity and power consumption are the key concerns while designing reconfigurable pulse shaping FIR filter for multistandard wireless communication system. In FIR filter, the single input to be multiplied by a set of coefficients known as multiple constant multiplications. This multiple constant multiplication becomes an obstruction in many applications. To overcome that, Digit Based Recoding, Canonic Sign Digit, Common Subexpression Elimination and Binary Common Subexpression Elimination algorithms are used to optimize the number of addition and subtraction operations. While designing these MCM algorithms in the architecture of RRC FIR filter, Binary Common Subexpression Elimination (BCSE) algorithm provides the better performance in terms of area and power.

Efficient reduction of PLI in ECG signal using new variable step size least m...IJECEIAES
It is very important in remote cardiac diagnosis to extract pure ECG signal from the contaminated recordings of the signal. When recording the ECG signal in the laboratory, the signal is affected by numerous artifacts. Varies artifacts generally degrades the signal quality are PLI, EM, MA and EM. In addition to these, the channel noise also added when transmitting signal from remote location to diagnosis center for analyzing the signal. There are several approaches are used to reduce the noise present in the ECG signal. From the literature it is proven that compared to non adaptive filters, adaptive filters play vital role to trace the random changes in the corrupted signals. In this paper, we proposed efficient Variable step size leaky least mean fourth algorithm and its sign versions for reducing the complexity. These algorithms shows that it gives low steady state error due to least mean fourth and fast convergence rate that is it tracks the input signal quickly because of its variable step size is high at initial iterations of signal compared to the LMS algorithm. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated using SNR, frequency spectrum, MSE, misadjustment and convergence characteristics.
Effective Area and Power Reduction for Low-Voltage CMOS Image Sensor Based Ap...IJTET Journal
Abstract— This paper presents a novel CMOS image sensor (CIS) based on 45nm processing technology. It includes a single inverter time-to-threshold pulse width modulation circuitry, capable of operating under very low supply voltage. Conventional CMOS image sensors implemented using 130nm processing technology had many advantages. But in order to incorporate additional processing circuitry, the device density increases which results in degradation in the speed of operation. Scaling of physical MOS device dimensions improves both speed and density. The leakage associated with scaling could be eliminated by re-designing the circuit. As result area and power consumption could be reduced, which is demanded by portable imaging equipments.
Design and Implementation of a Programmable Truncated Multiplierijsrd.com
Truncated multiplication reduces part of the power required by multipliers by only computing the most-significant bits of the product. The most common approach to truncation includes physical reduction of the partial product matrix and a compensation for the reduced bits via different hardware compensation sub circuits. However, this result in fixed systems optimized for a given application at design time. A novel approach to truncation is proposed, where a full precision multiplier is implemented, but the active section of the partial product matrix is selected dynamically at run-time. This allows a power reduction trade off against signal degradation which can be modified at run time. Such architecture brings together the power reduction benefits from truncated multipliers and the flexibility of reconfigurable and general purpose devices. Efficient implementation of such a multiplier is presented in a custom digital signal processor where the concept of software compensation is introduced and analysed for different applications. Experimental results and power measurements are studied, including power measurements from both post-synthesis simulations and a fabricated IC implementation. This is the first system-level DSP core using a fine-grain truncated multiplier. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of the programmable truncated MAC (PTMAC) in achieving power reduction, with minimum impact on functionality for a number of applications. Software compensation also shown to be effective when deploying truncated multipliers in a system.

Analysis of low pdp using SPST in bilateral filterIJTET Journal
A FPGA Implementation of a bilateral filter for image processing is given which does spatial averaging without smoothing edges. Kernel based processing is possible, which means that processing of the entire filter window at one pixel clock cycle. It is also supported by the arrangement of the input data into groups and applied a single clock cycle for a group of pixels. Based on these features, a technique called Spurious Power Suppression Technique (SPST) is implemented in Bilateral Filter to minimize Power Delay Product (PDP). SPST can also dramatically reduce the power by turn off its MSP (Most significant bit) without compromising the computational results to achieve the target parameters. Furthermore, an Original Glitch Diminishing technique is proposed to filter out useless switching power by asserting signals after the data transient period. The SPST can be expanded to a Fine-grain scheme in which the combinational circuits are divided into more than two parts. In Bilateral Filter a kernel of different size can be implemented using SPST which achieve good performance.

Reducting Power Dissipation in Fir Filter: an AnalysisCSCJournals
In this paper, three existing techniques, Signed Power-of-Two (SPT), Steepest decent and Coefficient segmentation, for power reduction of FIR filters are analyzed. These techniques reduce switching activity which is directly related to the power consumption of a circuit. In an FIR filter, the multiplier consumes maximum power. Therefore, power consumption can be reduced either by by making the filter multiplier-less or by minimizing hamming distance between the coefficients of this multiplier as it directly translates into reduction in power dissipation [8]. The results obtained on four filters (LP) show that hamming distance can be reduced upto 26% and 47% in steepest decent and coefficient segmentation algorithm respectively. Multiplier-less filter can be realized by realizing coefficients in signed power-of-two terms, i.e. by shifting and adding the coefficients, though at the cost of shift operation overhead.

Comparison of various noise mitigation technique used with clipping for reduc...eSAT Journals
Abstract
A simple technique used to reduce the PAPR of OFDM signals is to clip the signal to a maximum allowed value, at the cost of BER
degradation and out-of-band radiation. Clipping does not add extra information to the signal and high peaks occur with low
probability so the signal is seldom distorted. Out-of-band radiation can be reduced by filtering at the transmitter, the filter used in this
project consists on a FFT-IFFT pair which is easier to implement than traditional FIR filters and allows the implementation of the
clip & filter set several times in order to reduce the peak re growth that filtering introduces. The BER degradation can be mitigated by
reconstructing the signal at the receiver. We analyzed the performance of the decision-aided reconstruction (DAR) and improved DAR
(IDAR) techniques that iteratively try to guess the original symbols and proposed an improvement for one of those techniques.

Text Mining in Digital Libraries using OKAPI BM25 ModelEditor IJCATR
The emergence of the internet has made vast amounts of information available and easily accessible online. As a result, most libraries have digitized their content in order to remain relevant to their users and to keep pace with the advancement of the internet. However, these digital libraries have been criticized for using inefficient information retrieval models that do not perform relevance ranking to the retrieved results. This paper proposed the use of OKAPI BM25 model in text mining so as means of improving relevance ranking of digital libraries. Okapi BM25 model was selected because it is a probability-based relevance ranking algorithm. A case study research was conducted and the model design was based on information retrieval processes. The performance of Boolean, vector space, and Okapi BM25 models was compared for data retrieval. Relevant ranked documents were retrieved and displayed at the OPAC framework search page. The results revealed that Okapi BM 25 outperformed Boolean model and Vector Space model. Therefore, this paper proposes the use of Okapi BM25 model to reward terms according to their relative frequencies in a document so as to improve the performance of text mining in digital libraries.
Green Computing, eco trends, climate change, e-waste and eco-friendlyEditor IJCATR
This study focused on the practice of using computing resources more efficiently while maintaining or increasing overall performance. Sustainable IT services require the integration of green computing practices such as power management, virtualization, improving cooling technology, recycling, electronic waste disposal, and optimization of the IT infrastructure to meet sustainability requirements. Studies have shown that costs of power utilized by IT departments can approach 50% of the overall energy costs for an organization. While there is an expectation that green IT should lower costs and the firm’s impact on the environment, there has been far less attention directed at understanding the strategic benefits of sustainable IT services in terms of the creation of customer value, business value and societal value. This paper provides a review of the literature on sustainable IT, key areas of focus, and identifies a core set of principles to guide sustainable IT service design.
Policies for Green Computing and E-Waste in NigeriaEditor IJCATR
Computers today are an integral part of individuals’ lives all around the world, but unfortunately these devices are toxic to the environment given the materials used, their limited battery life and technological obsolescence. Individuals are concerned about the hazardous materials ever present in computers, even if the importance of various attributes differs, and that a more environment -friendly attitude can be obtained through exposure to educational materials. In this paper, we aim to delineate the problem of e-waste in Nigeria and highlight a series of measures and the advantage they herald for our country and propose a series of action steps to develop in these areas further. It is possible for Nigeria to have an immediate economic stimulus and job creation while moving quickly to abide by the requirements of climate change legislation and energy efficiency directives. The costs of implementing energy efficiency and renewable energy measures are minimal as they are not cash expenditures but rather investments paid back by future, continuous energy savings.

Most of the existing semantic similarity measures that use ontology structure as their primary source can measure semantic similarity between concepts/classes using single ontology. The ontology-based semantic similarity techniques such as structure-based semantic similarity techniques (Path Length Measure, Wu and Palmer’s Measure, and Leacock and Chodorow’s measure), information content-based similarity techniques (Resnik’s measure, Lin’s measure), and biomedical domain ontology techniques (Al-Mubaid and Nguyen’s measure (SimDist)) were evaluated relative to human experts’ ratings, and compared on sets of concepts using the ICD-10 “V1.0” terminology within the UMLS. The experimental results validate the efficiency of the SemDist technique in single ontology, and demonstrate that SemDist semantic similarity techniques, compared with the existing techniques, gives the best overall results of correlation with experts’ ratings.

A Strategy for Improving the Performance of Small Files in Openstack Swift Editor IJCATR
This is an effective way to improve the storage access performance of small files in Openstack Swift by adding an aggregate storage module. Because Swift will lead to too much disk operation when querying metadata, the transfer performance of plenty of small files is low. In this paper, we propose an aggregated storage strategy (ASS), and implement it in Swift. ASS comprises two parts which include merge storage and index storage. At the first stage, ASS arranges the write request queue in chronological order, and then stores objects in volumes. These volumes are large files that are stored in Swift actually. During the short encounter time, the object-to-volume mapping information is stored in Key-Value store at the second stage. The experimental results show that the ASS can effectively improve Swift's small file transfer performance.
Integrated System for Vehicle Clearance and RegistrationEditor IJCATR
Efficient management and control of government's cash resources rely on government banking arrangements. Nigeria, like many low income countries, employed fragmented systems in handling government receipts and payments. Later in 2016, Nigeria implemented a unified structure as recommended by the IMF, where all government funds are collected in one account would reduce borrowing costs, extend credit and improve government's fiscal policy among other benefits to government. This situation motivated us to embark on this research to design and implement an integrated system for vehicle clearance and registration. This system complies with the new Treasury Single Account policy to enable proper interaction and collaboration among five different level agencies (NCS, FRSC, SBIR, VIO and NPF) saddled with vehicular administration and activities in Nigeria. Since the system is web based, Object Oriented Hypermedia Design Methodology (OOHDM) is used. Tools such as Php, JavaScript, css, html, AJAX and other web development technologies were used. The result is a web based system that gives proper information about a vehicle starting from the exact date of importation to registration and renewal of licensing. Vehicle owner information, custom duty information, plate number registration details, etc. will also be efficiently retrieved from the system by any of the agencies without contacting the other agency at any point in time. Also number plate will no longer be the only means of vehicle identification as it is presently the case in Nigeria, because the unified system will automatically generate and assigned a Unique Vehicle Identification Pin Number (UVIPN) on payment of duty in the system to the vehicle and the UVIPN will be linked to the various agencies in the management information system.

Energy-Aware Routing in Wireless Sensor Network Using Modified Bi-Directional A*Editor IJCATR
Energy is a key component in the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN)[1]. The system will not be able to run according to its function without the availability of adequate power units. One of the characteristics of wireless sensor network is Limitation energy[2]. A lot of research has been done to develop strategies to overcome this problem. One of them is clustering technique. The popular clustering technique is Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH)[3]. In LEACH, clustering techniques are used to determine Cluster Head (CH), which will then be assigned to forward packets to Base Station (BS). In this research, we propose other clustering techniques, which utilize the Social Network Analysis approach theory of Betweeness Centrality (BC) which will then be implemented in the Setup phase. While in the Steady-State phase, one of the heuristic searching algorithms, Modified Bi-Directional A* (MBDA *) is implemented. The experiment was performed deploy 100 nodes statically in the 100x100 area, with one Base Station at coordinates (50,50). To find out the reliability of the system, the experiment to do in 5000 rounds. The performance of the designed routing protocol strategy will be tested based on network lifetime, throughput, and residual energy. The results show that BC-MBDA * is better than LEACH. This is influenced by the ways of working LEACH in determining the CH that is dynamic, which is always changing in every data transmission process. This will result in the use of energy, because they always doing any computation to determine CH in every transmission process. In contrast to BC-MBDA *, CH is statically determined, so it can decrease energy usage.

Hangul Recognition Using Support Vector MachineEditor IJCATR
The recognition of Hangul Image is more difficult compared with that of Latin. It could be recognized from the structural arrangement. Hangul is arranged from two dimensions while Latin is only from the left to the right. The current research creates a system to convert Hangul image into Latin text in order to use it as a learning material on reading Hangul. In general, image recognition system is divided into three steps. The first step is preprocessing, which includes binarization, segmentation through connected component-labeling method, and thinning with Zhang Suen to decrease some pattern information. The second is receiving the feature from every single image, whose identification process is done through chain code method. The third is recognizing the process using Support Vector Machine (SVM) with some kernels. It works through letter image and Hangul word recognition. It consists of 34 letters, each of which has 15 different patterns. The whole patterns are 510, divided into 3 data scenarios. The highest result achieved is 94,7% using SVM kernel polynomial and radial basis function. The level of recognition result is influenced by many trained data. Whilst the recognition process of Hangul word applies to the type 2 Hangul word with 6 different patterns. The difference of these patterns appears from the change of the font type. The chosen fonts for data training are such as Batang, Dotum, Gaeul, Gulim, Malgun Gothic. Arial Unicode MS is used to test the data. The lowest accuracy is achieved through the use of SVM kernel radial basis function, which is 69%. The same result, 72 %, is given by the SVM kernel linear and polynomial.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Abstract - This paper presents an architectural view of designing a digital filter. The main idea is to design a reconfigurable filter for reducing dynamic
power consumption. By considering the input variation’s we reduce the order of the filter considering the coefficient are fixed. The filter is implemented
using mentor graphics using TSMC .18um technology. The power consumption is decreased in the rate of 16% from the conventional model with a slight
increase in area overhead. If the filter coefficients are fixed then the power can be reduced up to 18% and the area overhead can also be reduced from the
reconfigurable architecture.
Key words— Low power digital filter, Reconfigurable filter.
1.INTRODUCTION
HE explosive growth in mobile computing and portable
multimedia applications has increased the demand for low
power digital signal processing (DSP) systems.
One of the most widely used operations performed in DSP is
finite impulse response (FIR) filtering. The input-output
relationship of the linear time invariant (LTI) FIR filter can be
expressed as the following equation:
N-1
y(n) = ∑ ck x(n-k)
k=0 (1)
Where N represents the length of FIR filter, the kth
coefficient, and the x(n-k) input data at time instant. In many
applications, in order to achieve high spectral containment and/or
noise attenuation, FIR filters with fairly large number of taps are
necessary.
Many previous efforts for reducing power consumption of FIR
filter generally focus on the optimization of the filter coefficients
while maintaining a fixed filter order. In those approaches, FIR
filter structures are simplified to add and shift operations, and
minimizing the number of additions/subtractions is one of the main
goals of the research. However, one of the drawbacks in those
approaches is that once the filter architecture is decided, the
coefficients cannot be changed, those techniques are not applicable
to the FIR filter with programmable coefficients.
Approximate signal processing techniques are also used for the
design of low power digital filters. In [1], filter order dynamically
varies according to the stop-band energy of the input signal.
However, the approach suffers from slow filter-order adaptation
time due to energy computations in the feedback mechanism.
Previous studies in [2] show that sorting both the data samples and
filter coefficients before the convolution operation has a desirable
energy-quality characteristic of FIR filter. However, the overhead
associated with the real-time sorting of incoming samples is too
large.
In this paper, we propose a simple yet efficient low power
reconfigurable FIR filter architecture, where the filter order can be
dynamically changed depending on the amplitude of the filter
inputs. In other words, when the data sample multiplied to the
coefficient is so small as to mitigate the effect of partial sum in
FIR filter, the multiplication operation can be simply cancelled.
The filter performance degradation can be minimized by
controlling the error bound as small as the quantization error or
signal to noise power ratio (SNR) of given system. The primary
goal of this work is to reduce the dynamic power of the FIR filter,
and the main contributions are (1) A new reconfigurable FIR filter
architecture with real-time input monitoring circuits is presented.
Since the basic filter structure is not changed, it is applicable to the
FIR filter with fixed coefficients or adaptive filters

The rest of the paper is organized as follows. In Section II, the
basic idea of the proposed reconfigurable filter is described.
Section III presents the reconfigurable fixed coefficient
architecture and circuit techniques used to implement the filter.
2. RECONFIGURABLE FIR FILTERING TO
TRADE OFF FILTER PERFORMANCE
In this section, we present direct form (DF) architecture of the
reconfigurable FIR filter, which is shown in Fig. 1(a). In order to
monitor the amplitudes of input samples and cancel the
multiplication operations, amplitude detector (AD) in Fig. 1(b) is
used. When the absolute value of is smaller than the threshold
the output of AD is set to “1”. The design of AD is dependent on
the input threshold xth, where the fan in’s of AND and OR gate
are decided by xth. If xth and cth have to be changed adaptively
due to designer’s considerations, AD can be implemented using a
simple comparator. Dynamic power consumption of CMOS logic
gates is a strong function of the switching activitie
node capacitances.
In the proposed reconfigurable filter, if we turn off the
multiplier by considering each of the input amplitude only, then, if
the amplitude of input abruptly changes for every cycle, the
multiplier will be turned on and off continuously, which incurs
considerable switching activities. Multiplier control signal decision
window (MCSD) in Fig. 1(a) is used to solve the switching
problem. Using ctrl signal generator inside MCSD, the number of
input samples consecutively smaller than are counted and the
multipliers are turned off only when consecutive input samples are
smaller than. Here, means the size of MCSD [in Fig. 1(a), is equal
to 2].
Fig. 2(a) shows the ctrl signal generator design. As an input
smaller than xth comes in and AD output is set to “1”, the counter
is counting up. When the counter reaches m, the
figure changes to “1”, which indicates that consecutive small
inputs are monitored and the multipliers are ready to turn off. One
additional m bit, in Fig. 2(a), is added and it is controlled by
The accompanies with input data all the way in the following flip
flops to indicate that the input sample is smaller than
multiplication can be cancelled when the cth coefficient of the
corresponding multiplier is also smaller than . Once the in
signal is set inside MCSD, the signal does not change outside
MCSD and holds the amplitude information of the input.
A delay component is added in front of the first tap for the
synchronization between x*(n) and in Fig. 3(a) since one clock
latency is needed due to the counter in MCSD. However, in the

Fig. 4(b), the multiplier can be easily turned off and the output is

RECONFIGURABLE DIGITAL FILTER
The proposed reconfigurable digital filter uses the fixed
coefficient. If we maintain a fixed coefficient then the power
consumed by the multiplier for the various inputs are reduced by
half literally. For example the C0=1100011 and the C11=1100011
then we can replace the coefficient of C11 with the C0. Thus the
multiplication result of the C11 and C0 remains the same. This

5. CONCLUSION
In this paper, we propose low power reconfigurable
digital filter architecture. In the proposed reconfigurable
filter, the input data are monitored and the multipliers in the
filter are turned off when the coefficients inputs are small
enough to mitigate the effect on the filter output. The power
can be further reduced if the coefficients are fixed. The
power reduced will be of 18%. The fixed coefficient can
enhance the filters performance by reducing the power and
the area.
The filter is designed using the using the VHDL code
using the HDL designer from mentor graphics using TSMC
.18um technology. We can implement the FIR filters in
various fields such as general purpose computers, radars,
wireless communication and audio processing applications.
This This may enhance the systems performance by
reducing the power.
