Systolic array system for vector quantization using transformed sub-band coding

The use of bit-level systolic arrays in the design of a vector quantized transformed subband coding system for speech signals is described. It is shown how the major components of this system can be decomposed into a small number of highly regular building blocks that interface directly to one another. These include circuits for the computation of the discrete cosine transform, the inverse discrete cosine transform, and vector quantization codebook search.<>
