Abstract | Systems and methods for implementing a scalable very-large-scale integration (VLSI) architecture to perform compressive sensing (CS) hardware reconstruction for data signals in accordance with embodiments of the invention are disclosed. The VLSI architecture is optimized for CS signal reconstruction by implementing a reformulation of the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) process and utilizing architecture resource sharing techniques. Typically, the VLSI architecture is a CS reconstruction engine that includes a vector and scalar computation cores where the cores can be time-multiplexed (via dynamic configuration) to perform each task associated with OMP. The vector core includes configurable processing elements (PEs) connected in parallel. Further, the cores can be linked by data-path memories, where complex data flow of OMP can be customized utilizing local memory controllers synchronized by a top-level finite-state machine. The computing resources (cores and data-paths) can be reused across the entire OMP process resulting in optimal utilization of the PEs. |
