Abstract :
The block state variable form is investigated as a technique to increase the parallelism of a filter. This increase in parallelism allows more parallel processors to be usefully applied to the problem, resulting in a faster processing rate than is possible in the unblocked form. Upper and lower bounds on the sample period bound and the number of processors required to support it are determined.
