DIRECS: system design of a 100 Mbit/s digital receiver

Abstract
The advances in VLSI technology have made the digital implementation of data receivers feasible at very high data rates. Aspects of the design of a chip set representing a 100 Mbit/s digital receiver for coded 8-PSK modulation are described. The receiver is discussed as an example of complex system design and finally implementation aspects are presented. Special emphasis is given to design methodology, trade-off optimisation and performance results. Attention is paid to the importance of considering the structural and algorithmic design as an integral part of the implementation process to obtain an efficient solution.
