Abstract

Describes how multimedia applications will be enabled in 3G wireless terminals thanks to the efficiency of the DSP core embedded in the TI Open Multimedia Application Platform (OMAP). The OMAP H/W architecture is described, with an emphasis on how multimedia applications (video, audio, speech) will benefit from this advanced architecture. The paper also depicts the advantages provided by a combined RISC/DSP architecture, compared to a single RISC architecture, for 3G multimedia mobile applications
