US Patent 7653675 Convolution operation in a multi-mode wireless processing system

A system and method for performing a convolution operation in a multi-mode wireless processing system. The method can include loading an initial value and a stride value into an address generator, generating an address based on the initial value and the stride value, supplying the generated address to a series of memories, loading input data into a series of registers, multiplying the contents of each register with a value stored at the generated address in the memory associated with each register, adding up the resulting multiplication products, and generating output based on the resulting sum. The number of memories and registers are equal, each register having an associated memory.
