Abstract

This paper presents an analysis for implementation of high-throughput wireless communication signal processing system on general purpose processor (GPP). The large amount of complex computation brings challenge for the conventional platforms. We compare GPP with DSP and FPGA, and regard GPP as a new direction for signal processing system developing. The program optimization on GPP platforms is necessary based on our research and developing experience. Therefore, we provide the basic principle and optimization methods for GPP realization, especially for the application of multicore technique. As solid justifications shown in the paper, our analysis is considered highly convincible.

Keywords: gpp platform; lte; signal processing; gpp optimization; multicore application
