Introduction to the TI C64x+ DSPLIB

1.1 Introduction to the TI C64x+ DSPLIB


The TI C64x+ DSPLIB is an optimized DSP Function Library for C programmers using devices that
include the C64x+ megamodule. It includes many C-callable, optimized, general-purpose
signal-processing routines. These routines are typically used in computationally intensive
real-time applications where optimal execution speed is critical. By using these routines, you can
achieve execution speeds considerably faster than equivalent code written in standard ANSI C
language. In addition, by providing ready-to-use DSP functions, TI DSPLIB can significantly
shorten your DSP application development time.
The TI DSPLIB includes commonly used DSP routines. Source code is provided that allows you to
modify functions to match your specific needs.
The routines contained in the library are organized into the following seven different functional
categories:

- Adaptive filtering

Unless specifically noted, DSPLIB operates on Q.15-fractional data type elements. Appendix A
presents an overview of Fractional Q formats.

2.2.1.2 DSPLIB Arguments


TI DSPLIB functions typically operate over vector operands for greater efficiency. Even though
these routines can be used to process short arrays, or even scalars (unless a minimum size
requirement is noted), they will be slower for those cases.

- Vector stride is always equal to 1: Vector operands are composed of vector


elements held in consecutive memory locations (vector stride equal to 1).

- Complex elements are assumed to be stored in consecutive memory


locations with Real data followed by Imaginary data, unless specifically
noted.

- In-place computation is not allowed, unless specifically noted: Source


operand cannot be equal to destination operand.

2.2.2 Calling a DSPLIB Function From C


In addition to installing the DSPLIB software, follow these steps to include a DSPLIB function to the
code:

- Include the dsplib64plus.h header file


- Link the code with the dsplib64plus.lib
- Use a correct linker command file for the platform used

The source code and CCS project in the “c64plus\dsplib\example\” directory shows how to use the
DSPLIB in a Code Composer Studio C environment.

2.2.3 Calling a DSP Function From Assembly


The C64x+ DSPLIB functions were written to be used from C. Calling the functions from assembly
language source code is possible as long as the calling function conforms to the Texas
Instruments C64x+ C compiler calling conventions. For more information, see Section 8 (Runtime
Environment) of TMS320C6000 Optimizing C Compiler User’s Guide (SPRU187).

2.2.4 DSPLIB Testing − Allowable Error


DSPLIB is tested under the Code Composer Studio environment against a reference C
implementation. You can expect identical results between Reference C implementation and its
Optimized C implementation when using test routines that focus on fixed point type results.

2.2.5 DSPLIB Overflow and Scaling Issues


The DSPLIB functions implement the same functionality of the reference C code. You must
conform to the range requirements specified in the API function, and in addition, restrict the input
range so that the outputs do not overflow.
In FFT functions, twiddle factors are generated with a fixed scale factor; i.e., 32767(=215−1) for all
16-bit FFT functions, 1073741823(=230−1) for DSP_fft32x32s, 2147483647(=231−1) for all other
32-bit FFT functions. Because DSP_fft16x16r and DSP_fft32x32s perform scaling by 2 at each
radix-4 stage, the input data must be scaled by 2(log2(nx)−cei[log4(nx)−1]) to completely prevent
overflow. In all other FFT functions, the input data must be scaled by 2(log2(nx)) because no scaling
is done by the functions.

2-4
How to Rebuild DSPLIB

2.2.6 Interrupt Behavior of DSPLIB Functions


All of the functions in this library are designed to be used in systems with interrupts. Thus, it is not
necessary to disable interrupts when calling any of these functions. The functions in the library will
disable interrupts as needed to protect the execution of code in tight loops and so on. Library
functions have three categories:

- Fully-interruptible: These functions do not disable interrupts. Interrupts


are blocked by at most 5 to 10 cycles at a time (not counting stalls) by
branch delay slots.

- Partially-interruptible: These functions disable interrupts for long


periods of time, with small windows of interruptibility. Examples include a
function with a nested loop, where the inner loop is non-interruptible and
the outer loop permits interrupts between executions of the inner loop.

- Non-interruptible: These functions disable interrupts for nearly their


entire duration. Interrupts may happen for a short time during the setup
and exit sequence.
Note that all three function categories tolerate interrupts. That is, an interrupt can occur at any time
without affecting the function correctness. The interruptibility of the function only determines how
long the kernel might delay the processing of the interrupt.

2.3 How to Rebuild DSPLIB


If you would like to rebuild DSPLIB, follow these steps:

1. Start Code Composer Studio (version 3.2 or later).

2. Open the ’dsplib64plus.pjt’ project by clicking Project −> Open in the menu
and browse to the ’c64plus\dsplib\’ directory.

3. Rebuild the project by clicking on Project−> Build in the menu.


Once CCS has finished compiling the new library you will find the file ’dsplib64plus_rebuild.lib’ in
the ’c64plus\dsplib\Release\’ directory.

Arguments and Conventions Used

3.1 Arguments and Conventions Used


The following convention has been used when describing the arguments for each individual
function:

Table 3−1. Argument Conventions

Argument Description
x,y Argument reflecting input data vector

r Argument reflecting output data vector

nx,ny,nr Arguments reflecting the size of vectors x,y, and r, respectively. For
functions in the case nx = ny = nr, only nx has been used across.

h Argument reflecting filter coefficient vector (filter routines only)

nh Argument reflecting the size of vector h

w Argument reflecting FFT coefficient vector (FFT routines only)

Some C64x+ functions have additional restrictions due to optimization using new features such as
higher multiply throughput. While these new functions perform better, they can also lead to
problems if not carefully used. Therefore, the new functions are named with any additional
restrictions. Three types of restrictions are specified to a pointer: minimum buffer size (M), buffer
alignment (A), and the number of elements in the buffer to be a multiple of an integer (X).The
following convention has been used when describing the arguments for each individual function:
A kernel function foo with two parameters, m and n, with the following restrictions:
m −> Minimum buffer size = 8, buffer alignment = double word, buffer
needs to be a multiple of 8 elements
n −> Minimum buffer size = 32, buffer alignment = word , buffer needs to be
a multiple of 16 elements
This function would be named: foo_mM8A8X8_nM32A4X16.

DSP_fft16x16

4.3 FFT

DSP_fft16x16 Complex Forward Mixed Radix 16 x 16-bit FFT

Function void DSP_fft16x16(short * restrict w, int nx, short * restrict x, short * restrict y)

Arguments w[2*nx] Pointer to complex Q.15 FFT coefficients.

nx Length of FFT in complex samples. Must be a power of 2 or


4,
and 16 ≤ nx ≤ 65536.

x[2*nx] Pointer to complex 16-bit data input.

y[2*nx] Pointer to complex 16-bit data output.

Description This routine computes a complex forward mixed radix FFT with rounding and
digit reversal. Input data x[ ], output data y[ ], and coefficients w[ ] are 16-bit.
The output is returned in the separate array y[ ] in normal order. Each complex
value is stored with interleaved real and imaginary parts. The code uses a
special ordering of FFT coefficients (also called twiddle factors) and memory
accesses to improve performance in the presence of cache.

Algorithm All stages are radix-4 except the last one, which can be radix-2 or radix-4,
depending on the size of the FFT. All stages except the last one scale by two
the stage output data.

Special Requirements

- In-place computation is not allowed.

- The size of the FFT, nx, must be a power of 2 or 4, and 16 ≤ nx ≤ 65536.

- The arrays for the complex input data x[ ], complex output data y[ ], and
twiddle factors w[ ] must be double-word aligned.

- The input and output data are complex, with the real/imaginary
components stored in adjacent locations in the array. The real
components are stored at even array indices, and the imaginary
components are stored at odd array indices. All data are in short precision
or Q.15 format.

4-6
DSP_fft16x16

Implementation Notes

- Interruptibility: The code is interruptible.

The routine uses log4(nx) − 1 stages of radix-4 transform and performs either a radix-2 or radix-4
transform on the last stage depending on nx. If nx is a power of 4, then this last stage is also a
radix-4 transform, otherwise it is a radix-2 transform. The conventional Cooley Tukey FFT is
written using three loops. The outermost loop “k” cycles through the stages. There are log N to
the base 4 stages in all. The loop “j” cycles through the groups of butterflies with different twiddle
factors, and loop “i” reuses the twiddle factors for the different butterflies within a stage. Note the
following:

Butterflies With Common


Stage Groups Twiddle Factors Groups*Butterflies
1 N/4 1 N/4

2 N/16 4 N/4

.. .. .. ..

logN 1 N/4 N/4

The following statements can be made based on above observations:

1) Inner loop “i0” iterates a variable number of times. In particular, the number
of iterations quadruples every time from 1..N/4. Hence, software pipelining
a loop that iterates a variable number of times is not profitable.

2) Outer loop “j” iterates a variable number of times as well. However, the
number of iterations is quartered every time from N/4 ..1. Hence, the
behavior in (a) and (b) are exactly opposite to each other.

3) If the two loops “i” and “j” are coalesced together then they will iterate for
a fixed number of times, namely N/4. This allows us to combine the “i” and
“j” loops into one loop. Optimized implementations will make use of this
fact.
In addition,, the Cooley Tukey FFT accesses three twiddle factors per iteration
of the inner loop, as the butterflies that reuse twiddle factors are lumped
together. This leads to accessing the twiddle factor array at three points, each
separated by “ie”. Note that “ie” is initially 1, and is quadrupled with every
iteration. Therefore, these three twiddle factors are not even contiguous in the
array.

C64x+ DSPLIB Reference 4-7


DSP_fft16x16

To vectorize the FFT, it is desirable to access the twiddle factor array using
double word wide loads and fetch the twiddle factors needed. To do this, a
modified twiddle factor array is created, in which the factors WN/4, WN/2,
W3N/4 are arranged to be contiguous. This eliminates the separation between
twiddle factors within a butterfly. However, this implies that we maintain a
redundant version of the twiddle factor array as the loop is traversed from one
stage to another. Hence, the size of the twiddle factor array increases as
compared to the normal Cooley Tukey FFT. The modified twiddle factor array
is of size “2 * N” where the conventional Cooley Tukey FFT is of size “3N/4”
where N is the number of complex points to be transformed. The routine that
generates the modified twiddle factor array was presented earlier. With the
above transformation of the FFT, both the input data and the twiddle factor
array can be accessed using double-word wide loads to enable packed data
processing.
The final stage is optimized to remove the multiplication as w0 = 1. This stage
also performs digit reversal on the data, so the final output is in natural order.
In addition, if the number of points to be transformed is a power of 2, the final
stage applies a radix-2 pass instead of a radix-4. In any case, the outputs are
returned in normal order.
The code performs the bulk of the computation in place. However, because
digit-reversal cannot be performed in-place, the final result is written to a
separate array, y[].

DSP_fft16x16_imre Complex Forward Mixed Radix 16 x 16-bit FFT, With Im/Re Order

Function void DSP_fft16x16_imre(short * restrict w, int nx, short * restrict x, short * re-
strict y)

Arguments w[2*nx] Pointer to complex Q.15 FFT coefficients.

nx Length of FFT in complex samples. Must be a power of


2 or 4, and 16 ≤ nx ≤ 65536.

x[2*nx] Pointer to complex 16-bit data input.

y[2*nx] Pointer to complex 16-bit data output.

Description This routine computes a complex forward mixed radix FFT with rounding and
digit reversal. Input data x[ ], output data y[ ], and coefficients w[ ] are 16-bit.
The output is returned in the separate array y[ ] in normal order. Each complex
value is stored with interleaved imaginary and real parts. The code uses a
special ordering of FFT coefficients (also called twiddle factors) and memory
accesses to improve performance in the presence of cache.

Algorithm All stages are radix-4 except the last one, which can be radix-2 or radix-4,
depending on the size of the FFT. All stages except the last one scale by two
the stage output data.

Special Requirements

- In-place computation is not allowed.

- The size of the FFT, nx, must be power a of 2 or 4, and 16 ≤ nx ≤ 65536.

- The arrays for the complex input data x[ ], complex output data y[ ], and
twiddle factors w[ ] must be double-word aligned.

- The input and output data are complex, with the imaginary/real
components stored in adjacent locations in the array. The imaginary
components are stored at even array indices, and the real components are
stored at odd array indices. All data are in short precision or Q.15 format.

Implementation Notes
- Interruptibility: The code is interruptible.

DSP_fft16x16_imre

The routine uses log4(nx) − 1 stages of radix-4 transform and performs either
a radix-2 or radix-4 transform on the last stage depending on nx. If nx is a
power of 4, then this last stage is also a radix-4 transform, otherwise it is a
radix-2 transform. The conventional Cooley Tukey FFT is written using three
loops. The outermost loop “k” cycles through the stages. There are log N to
the base 4 stages in all. The loop “j” cycles through the groups of butterflies
with different twiddle factors, and loop “i” reuses the twiddle factors for the
different butterflies within a stage. Note the following:

Butterflies With Common


Stage Groups Twiddle Factors Groups*Butterflies
1 N/4 1 N/4

2 N/16 4 N/4

.. .. .. ..

logN 1 N/4 N/4

The following statements can be made based on above observations:

1) Inner loop “i0” iterates a variable number of times. In particular, the number
of iterations quadruples every time from 1..N/4. Hence, software pipelining
a loop that iterates a variable number of times is not profitable.

2) Outer loop “j” iterates a variable number of times as well. However, the
number of iterations is quartered every time from N/4 ..1. Hence, the
behavior in (a) and (b) are exactly opposite to each other.

3) If the two loops “i” and “j” are coalesced together then they will iterate for
a fixed number of times, namely N/4. This allows us to combine the “i” and
“j” loops into one loop. Optimized implementations will make use of this
fact.
In addition, the Cooley Tukey FFT accesses three twiddle factors per iteration
of the inner loop, as the butterflies that reuse twiddle factors are lumped
together. This leads to accessing the twiddle factor array at three points, each
separated by “ie”. Note that “ie” is initially 1, and is quadrupled with every
iteration. Therefore these three twiddle factors are not even contiguous in the
array.

4-10
DSP_fft16x16_imre

To vectorize the FFT, it is desirable to access twiddle factor array using double
word wide loads and fetch the twiddle factors needed. To do this, a modified
twiddle factor array is created, in which the factors WN/4, WN/2, W3N/4 are
arranged to be contiguous. This eliminates the separation between twiddle
factors within a butterfly. However, this implies that we maintain a redundant
version of the twiddle factor array as the loop is traversed from one stage to
another. Hence, the size of the twiddle factor array increases as compared to
the normal Cooley Tukey FFT. The modified twiddle factor array is of size
“2 * N”, where the conventional Cooley Tukey FFT is of size “3N/4”, where N
is the number of complex points to be transformed. The routine that generates
the modified twiddle factor array was presented earlier. With the above
transformation of the FFT, both the input data and the twiddle factor array can
be accessed using double-word wide loads to enable packed data processing.
The final stage is optimized to remove the multiplication as w0 = 1. This stage
also performs digit reversal on the data, so the final output is in natural order.
In addition, if the number of points to be transformed is a power of 2, the final
stage applies a DSP_radix2 pass instead of a radix 4. In any case, the outputs
are returned in normal order.
The code performs the bulk of the computation in place. However, because
digit-reversal cannot be performed in-place, the final result is written to a
separate array, y[].

DSP_fft16x16r Complex Forward Mixed Radix 16 x 16-bit FFT With Rounding

Function void DSP_fft16x16r(int nx, short * restrict x, short * restrict w, short * restrict y,
int radix, int offset, int nmax)

Arguments nx Length of FFT in complex samples. Must be power of 2 or 4, and


16 ≤ nx ≤ 65536

x[2*nx] Pointer to complex 16-bit data input

w[2*nx] Pointer to complex FFT coefficients

radix Smallest FFT butterfly used in computation used for


decomposing FFT into sub-FFTs. See notes.

offset Index in complex samples of sub-FFT from start of main FFT.

nmax Size of main FFT in complex samples.

Description This routine implements a complex forward mixed radix FFT with scaling,
rounding and digit reversal. Input data x[ ], output data y[ ], and coefficients w[ ]
are 16-bit. The output is returned in the separate array y[ ] in normal order.
Each complex value is stored as interleaved 16-bit real and imaginary parts.
The code uses a special ordering of FFT coefficients (also called twiddle
factors).
This redundant set of twiddle factors is size 2*N short samples. As pointed out
in subsequent sections, dividing these twiddle factors by 2 will give an effective
divide by 4 at each stage to guarantee no overflow. The function is accurate
to about 68dB of signal to noise ratio to the DFT function as follows.

4-12
DSP_fft16x16r

void dft(int n, short x[], short y[])


{
int k,i, index;
const double PI = 3.14159654;
short * p_x;
double arg, fx_0, fx_1, fy_0, fy_1, co, si;

for(k = 0; k<n; k++)


{
p_x = x;
fy_0 = 0;
fy_1 = 0;
for(i=0; i<n; i++)
{
fx_0 = (double)p_x[0];
fx_1 = (double)p_x[1];
p_x += 2;
index = (i*k) % n;
arg = 2*PI*index/n;
co = cos(arg);
si = −sin(arg);
fy_0 += ((fx_0 * co) − (fx_1 * si));
fy_1 += ((fx_1 * co) + (fx_0 * si));
}
y[2*k] = (short)2*fy_0/sqrt(n);
y[2*k+1] = (short)2*fy_1/sqrt(n);
}
}
Scaling by 2 (i.e., >>1) takes place at each radix-4 stage except the last one.
A radix-4 stage could give a maximum bit-growth of 2 bits, which would require
scaling by 4. To completely prevent overflow, the input data must be scaled by
2(BT−BS), where BT (total number of bit growth) = log2(nx) and BS (number of
scales by the functions) = ceil[log4(nx)−1]. All shifts are rounded to reduce
truncation noise power by 3dB.

C64x+ DSPLIB Reference 4-13


DSP_fft16x16r

The function takes the twiddle factors and input data, and calculates the FFT
producing the frequency domain data in the y[ ] array. As the FFT allows every
input point to affect every output point, which causes cache thrashing in a
cache based system. This is mitigated by allowing the main FFT of size N to
be divided into several steps, allowing as much data reuse as possible. For
example, see the following function:

DSP_fft16x16r(1024,&x[0], &w[0], y,4, 0,1024);


is equivalent to:
DSP_fft16x16r(1024,&x[2*0], &w[0] ,y,256, 0,1024);
DSP_fft16x16r(256, &x[2*0], &w[2*768],y,4, 0,1024);
DSP_fft16x16r(256, &x[2*256],&w[2*768],y,4, 256,1024);
DSP_fft16x16r(256, &x[2*512],&w[2*768],y,4, 512,1024);
DSP_fft16x16r(256, &x[2*768],&w[2*768],y,4, 768,1024);
Notice how the first FFT function is called on the entire 1K data set. It covers
the first pass of the FFT until the butterfly size is 256.
The following 4 FFTs do 256-point FFTs 25% of the size. These continue down
to the end when the butterfly is of size 4. They use an index to the main twiddle
factor array of 0.75*2*N. This is because the twiddle factor array is composed
of successively decimated versions of the main array.
N not equal to a power of 4 can be used; i.e. 512. In this case, the following
would be needed to decompose the FFT:

DSP_fft16x16r(512, &x[0], &w[0], y,2, 0,512);


is equivalent to:
DSP_fft16x16r(512, &x[0], &w[0], y,128, 0,512);
DSP_fft16x16r(128, &x[2*0], &w[2*384],y,2, 0,512);
DSP_fft16x16r(128, &x[2*128],&w[2*384],y,2, 128,512);
DSP_fft16x16r(128, &x[2*256],&w[2*384],y,2, 256,512);
DSP_fft16x16r(128, &x[2*384],&w[2*384],y,2, 384,512);
The twiddle factor array is composed of log4(N) sets of twiddle factors, (3/4)*N,
(3/16)*N, (3/64)*N, etc. The index into this array for each stage of the FFT is
calculated by summing these indices up appropriately. For multiple FFTs, they
can share the same table by calling the small FFTs from further down in the
twiddle factor array, in the same way as the decomposition works for more data
reuse.
Thus, the above decomposition can be summarized for a general N, radix “rad”
as follows.
DSP_fft16x16r(N, &x[0], &w[0], y,N/4,0, N)

4-14
DSP_fft16x16r

DSP_fft16x16r(N/4,&x[0], &w[2*3*N/4],y,rad,0, N)
DSP_fft16x16r(N/4,&x[2*N/4], &w[2*3*N/4],y,rad,N/4, N)
DSP_fft16x16r(N/4,&x[2*N/2], &w[2*3*N/4],y,rad,N/2, N)
DSP_fft16x16r(N/4,&x[2*3*N/4],&w[2*3*N/4],y,rad,3*N/4,N)
As discussed previously, N can be either a power of 4 or 2. If N is a power of
4, then rad = 4, and if N is a power of 2 and not a power of 4, then rad = 2. “rad”
controls how many stages of decomposition are performed. It also determines
whether a radix4 or DSP_radix2 decomposition should be performed at the
last stage. Hence, when “rad” is set to “N/4”, the first stage of the transform
alone is performed and the code exits. To complete the FFT, four other calls
are required to perform N/4 size FFTs. In fact, the ordering of these 4 FFTs
amongst themselves does not matter and, thus, from a cache perspective, it
helps to go through the remaining 4 FFTs in exactly the opposite order to the
first. This is illustrated as follows:
DSP_fft16x16r(N, &x[0], &w[0], y,N/4,0, N)
DSP_fft16x16r(N/4,&x[2*3*N/4],&w[2*3*N/4],y,rad,3*N/4, N)
DSP_fft16x16r(N/4,&x[2*N/2], &w[2*3*N/4],y,rad,N/2, N)
DSP_fft16x16r(N/4,&x[2*N/4], &w[2*3*N/4],y,rad,N/4, N)
DSP_fft16x16r(N/4,&x[0], &w[2*3*N/4],y,rad,0, N)
In addition, this function can be used to minimize call overhead by completing
the FFT with one function call invocation as shown below:
DSP_fft16x16r(N, &x[0], &w[0], y, rad, 0, N)

restrictions. Note that the intrinsic C code is optimized and restrictions may
apply.

Special Requirements

- In-place computation is not allowed.

- nx must be a power of 2 or 4.

- Complex input data x[ ], twiddle factors w[ ], and output array y[ ] must be


double-word aligned.

- Real values are stored in even word, imaginary in odd.

- All data are in short precision or Q.15 format. Allowed input dynamic range
is 16 − (log2(nx)−ceil[log4(nx)−1]).

- Output results are returned in normal order.

- The FFT coefficients (twiddle factors) are generated using the function
gen_twiddle_fft16x16 provided in the ’c64plus\dsplib\src\DSP_fft16x16r’

4-20
DSP_fft16x16r

directory. The scale factor must be 32767.5. The input data must be scaled
by 2(log2(nx)−ceil[log4(nx)−1]) to completely prevent overflow.

Implementation Notes

- Interruptibility: The code is interruptible.

- The routine uses log4(nx) − 1 stages of radix-4 transform and performs


either a radix-2 or radix-4 transform on the last stage depending on nx. If
nx is a power of 4, then this last stage is also a radix-4 transform, otherwise
it is a radix-2 transform.

- A special sequence of coefficients used as generated above produces the


FFT. This collapses the inner 2 loops in the traditional Burrus and Parks
implementation.

- The revised FFT uses a redundant sequence of twiddle factors to allow a


linear access through the data. This linear access enables data and
instruction level parallelism.

- The butterfly is bit reversed; i.e. the inner 2 points of the butterfly are
crossed over. This makes the data come out in bit reversed rather than in
radix 4 digit reversed order. This simplifies the last pass of the loop. The
BITR instruction does the bit reversal out of place.

this function that is provided in the ’c64plus\dsplib\src\DSP_fft16x32’

- In-place computation is not allowed.

- The size of the FFT, nx, must be a power of 2 or 4 and 16 ≤ nx ≤ 65536.

- The routine uses log4(nx) − 1 stages of radix-4 transform and performs


either a radix-2 or radix-4 transform on the last stage depending on nx. If
nx is a power of 4, then this last stage is also a radix-4 transform, otherwise
it is a radix-2 transform.

Description This function applies a symmetric filter to the input samples. The filter tap array
h[] provides ‘nh+1’ total filter taps. The filter tap at h[nh] forms the center point
of the filter. The taps at h[nh − 1] through h[0] form a symmetric filter about this
central tap. The effective filter length is thus 2*nh+1 taps.

intermediate results to 40-bit precision. The accumulator is rounded and
truncated according to the value provided in ‘s’. This allows a variety of
Q-points to be used.

Make multiple of 2 to avoid bank conflicts.

r[nx] Output vector (16-bit).

Description This routine implements a real all-pole IIR filter in lattice structure (AR lattice).
The filter consists of nk lattice stages. Each stage requires one reflection
coefficient k and one delay element b. The routine takes an input vector x[] and
returns the filter output in r[]. Prior to the first call of the routine, the delay
elements in b[] should be set to zero. The input data may have to be pre-scaled
to avoid overflow or achieve better SNR. The reflections coefficients lie in the
range −1.0 < k < 1.0. The order of the coefficients is such that k[nk−1]
corresponds to the first lattice stage after the input and k[0] corresponds to the
last stage.

DSP_mat_mul

4.6 Matrix

DSP_mat_mul Matrix Multiplication

Function void DSP_mat_mul(short * restrict x, int r1, int c1, short * restrict y, int c2, short
* restrict r, int qs)

Arguments x [r1*c1] Pointer to input matrix of size r1*c1.

r1 Number of rows in matrix x.

c1 Number of columns in matrix x. Also number of rows in y.

y [c1*c2] Pointer to input matrix of size c1*c2.

c2 Number of columns in matrix y.

r [r1*c2] Pointer to output matrix of size r1*c2.

qs Final right−shift to apply to the result.

Description This function computes the expression “r = x * y” for the matrices x and y. The
columnar dimension of x must match the row dimension of y. The resulting
matrix has the same number of rows as x and the same number of columns as
y.
The values stored in the matrices are assumed to be fixed-point or integer
values. All intermediate sums are retained to 32-bit precision, and no overflow
checking is performed. The results are right-shifted by a user-specified
amount, and then truncated to 16 bits.

Algorithm This is the natural C equivalent of the optimized intrinsic C code without
restrictions. Note that the intrinsic C code is optimized and restrictions may

for (k = 0; k < c1; k++)


sum += x[k + i*c1] * y[j + k*c2];

r[j + i*c2] = sum >> qs;


}
}
Special Requirements
- The arrays x[], y[], and r[] are stored in distinct arrays. That is, in-place
processing is not allowed.
- The input matrices have minimum dimensions of at least 1 row and 1
column, and maximum dimensions of 32767 rows and 32767 columns.
Implementation Notes
- Interruptibility: This code blocks interrupts during its innermost loop.
Interrupts are not blocked otherwise. As a result, interrupts can be blocked
for up to 0.25*c1’ + 16 cycles at a time.
- The ‘i’ loop and ‘k’ loops are unrolled 2x. The ’j’ loop is unrolled 4x. For
dimensions that are not multiples of the various loops’ unroll factors, this
code calculates extra results beyond the edges of the matrix. These extra
results are ultimately discarded. This allows the loops to be unrolled for
efficient operation on large matrices while not losing flexibility.

Arguments x[rows*columns] Pointer to input matrix.

rows Number of rows in the input matrix. Must be a multiple


of 4.

columns Number of columns in the input matrix. Must be a multiple


of 4.

r[columns*rows] Pointer to output data vector of size rows*columns.

Description This function transposes the input matrix x[ ] and writes the result to matrix r[ ].

Algorithm This is the natural C equivalent of the optimized intrinsic C code without
restrictions. Note that the intrinsic C code is optimized and restrictions may
apply.
void DSP_mat_trans(short *x, short rows, short columns, short

}

Special Requirements

- Rows and columns must be a multiple of 4.

- Matrices are assumed to have 16-bit elements.

Implementation Notes

- Interruptibility: The code is interruptible.

- Data from four adjacent rows, spaced “columns” apart are read, and a
local 4x4 transpose is performed in the register file. This leads to four
double words, that are “rows” apart. These loads and stores can cause
bank conflicts; hence, non-aligned loads and stores are used.

Arguments x [nx] Source data. Must be double-word aligned.

Performance Considerations

A.1 Performance Considerations


The ceil( ) is used in some benchmark formulas to accurately describe the number of cycles. It
returns a number rounded up, away from zero, to the nearest integer. For example, ceil(1.1)
returns 2.
Although DSPLIB can be used as a first estimation of processor performance for a specific
function, you should be aware that the generic nature of DSPLIB might add extra cycles not
required for customer specific usage.
Benchmark cycles presented assume best case conditions, typically assuming all code and data
are placed in L1 memory. Any extra cycles due to placement of code or data in L2/external memory
or cache-associated effects (cache-hits or misses) are not considered when computing the cycle
counts.
You should also be aware that execution speed in a system is dependent on where the different
sections of program and data are located in memory. You should account for such differences
when trying to explain why a routine is taking more time than the reported DSPLIB benchmarks.
Many considerations need to be taken when designing an overall system. The DSPLIB bench-
marks are tested in a standalone environment to test the functions. Better performance may be
achieved by tuning the function(s) for an overall system
For more information on additional stall cycles due to memory hierarchy, see the Signal
Processing Examples Using TMS320C64x Digital Signal Processing Library (SPRA884). The
TMS320C6000 DSP Cache User’s Guide (SPRU656A) presents how to optimize algorithms and
function calls for better cache performance.

A-2
Fractional Q Formats

A.2 Fractional Q Formats


Unless specifically noted, DSPLIB functions use Q15 format, or to be more exact, Q0.15. In a
Qm.n format, there are m bits used to represent the two’s complement integer portion of the
number, and n bits used to represent the two’s complement fractional portion. m+n+1 bits are
needed to store a general Qm.n number. The extra bit is needed to store the sign of the number in
the most-significant bit position. The representable integer range is specified by (−2 m,2 m) and the
finest fractional resolution is 2 −n.
For example, the most commonly used format is Q.15. Q.15 means that a 16-bit word is used to
express a signed number between positive and negative one. The most-significant binary digit is
interpreted as the sign bit in any Q format number. Thus, in Q.15 format, the decimal point is placed
immediately to the right of the sign bit. The fractional portion to the right of the sign bit is stored in
regular two’s complement format.

A.2.1 Q3.12 Format


Q.3.12 format places the sign bit after the fourth binary digit from the right, and the next 12 bits
contain the two’s complement fractional component. The approximate allowable range of
numbers in Q.3.12 representation is (−8,8) and the finest fractional resolution is 2−12 = 2.441 ×
10−4.

Value S I3 I2 I1 Q11 Q10 Q9 … Q0

A.2.2 Q.15 Format


Q.15 format places the sign bit at the leftmost binary digit, and the next 15 leftmost bits contain the
two’s complement fractional component. The approximate allowable range of numbers in Q.15
representation is (−1,1) and the finest fractional resolution is 2−15 = 3.05 × 10−5.

A.2.3 Q.31 Format


Q.31 format spans two 16-bit memory words. The 16-bit word stored in the lower memory location
contains the 16 least significant bits, and the higher memory location contains the most significant
15 bits and the sign bit. The approximate allowable range of numbers in Q.31 representation is
(−1,1) and the finest fractional resolution is 2−31 = 4.66 × 10−10.
