Abstract: In this paper is presented a novel area efficient Fast
Fourier transform (FFT) for real-time compressive sensing (CS)
reconstruction. Among various methodologies used for CS
reconstruction algorithms, Greedy-based orthogonal matching
pursuit (OMP) approach provides better solution in terms of
accurate implementation with complex computations overhead.
Several computationally intensive arithmetic operations like
complex matrix multiplication are required to formulate
correlative vectors making this algorithm highly complex and
power consuming hardware implementation. Computational
complexity becomes very important especially in complex FFT
models to meet different operational standards and system
requirements. In general, for real time applications, FFT
transforms are required for high speed computations as well as
with least possible complexity overhead in order to support wide
range of applications. This paper presents an hardware efficient
FFT computation technique with twiddle factor normalization for
correlation optimization in orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP).
Experimental results are provided to validate the performance
metrics of the proposed normalization techniques against
complexity and energy related issues. The proposed method is
verified by FPGA synthesizer, and validated with appropriate
currently available comparative analyzes.
Keywords: Compressive sensing, Fast Fourier transform,
Orthogonal matching pursuit, FPGA, etc.
I. INTRODUCTION
In recent years high speed and improved end quality
results are emerged as important aspects of many digital
systems like Clinical imaging [1], wireless communication
[2] and IoT Applications [3] which give rise to both
bandwidth and frequency. In general, almost in all fields of
signal and image processing, data acquisition using sampling
theory has been primarily used to narrow down the penalty
gap that exists between desired qualities over rate of signal
acquisition [4]. However, sampling the information based on
Nyquist is unsuitable for many applications, often causes
storage capacity burden or hardware complexity overhead.
Additionally, owing to the inclusion of wideband and high
throughput signal processing, this conventional method
requires a high sampling rate, which tends to energy
consumption problems.
On the other side, from the basis of the sparse
representation, signals parts can be discarded to attain some
level of compression without compromising any sort of end

results quality which is referred to as Compressive Sampling
(CS). In this method signals are acquired with some
measured value and then utilize some unique algorithm at the
receiver side to restore the input signal from the down rated
measured values. It has advantage of least possible samples
requirement for accurate reconstruction of input signal which
is far less as compared to its counterpart sampling theory.
In CS method, signals are represented sparsely based on
prior statistics and characteristics of the signal to be
compressed based on some orthogonal basis. Some of the
prominent basis widely preferred is discrete cosine transform
(DST), Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), wavelet, Gabor, etc. In
general signal reconstruction from the measured values
normally comes with several problems that need to be solved
and the solution provided to mitigate these problems should
be evolved with some optimization.
Numerous methods investigated the influence of
compressive sampling over effective signal representation.
Some works also focused on the use of greedy methods for
signal reconstruction [5]. This work aims to propose highly
optimized FFT core for active correlation optimization in CS
signal reconstruction which is a crucial step in CS
analyses[6, 7].
The major contributions of this paper towards CS
reconstruction are as follows: (i) the twiddle factor
normalization using radix-2
k
framework, which has low
complexity and prominent impact since CS analysis always
requires large number of computational resources due to its
correlation computations. (ii) Conventional hardware
optimization models in FFT computations come with
performance trade off measures. In contrast, in this work, the
hardware complexity and energy consumption problems are
addressed without using any arithmetic computational
techniques. Another metric of this FFT core is that it can
perform FFT computation at high speed whereas
conventional FFT methods always require pipelining or
parallel process to accomplish this task. (iii) Due to the use of
non trivial twiddle factors, the FFT computation process is
robust to any sort of arithmetic error owing to its fixed width
word constrain and can provide improved signal recovery as
compared to other FFT methods.
The organization of remaining part of the paper is as
follows: In Section 2 is described various FFT hardware
optimization models; Section 3 explores the potential metrics
of FFT model along with the CS reconstruction algorithm
framework. Radix factorization technique is elaborated in
Section 4 based on index mapping framework for low
complexity and energy efficiency. Experimental results and
comparative analyses are addressed to demonstrate the area
and power efficiency of this FFT twiddle factor
normalization scheme,
finally with a summary in
Section 5.
