SCALABLE CONTROL INTERFACE FOR LARGE-SCALE SIGNAL PROCESSING SYSTEMS.

摘要

A system for distributed processing of signals, including: at least one signal processing unit; at least one control unit arranged to generate a set of control commands and presenting the control commands at an output; at least two interfacing nodes, each of said interfacing nodes including: a data input connected to one control unit, for receiving control data from the control unit; a command data generator for generating command instructions in response to the received control data, said command instructions being readable by the signal processing device connected to the node; a clock input for receiving a synchronisation clock signal; a scheduling unit for scheduling a release of the command instructions based on the synchronisation clock signal; and a control output for outputting generated command instructions according to the schedule, which control output is connected with via a point-to-point connection to one of said data processing devices.
