Which of the following exhibits low efficiency when implemented using FPGA?(a) FFT algorithm(b) Database algorithm(c) Convolution algorithm(d) FEC algorithmI have been asked this question during an interview.This interesting question is from Digital Architecture Tradeoffs topic in chapter Technology Tradeoffs in Software Defined Radio of Cognitive Radio

Answer»

The correct OPTION is (b) Database algorithm

Explanation: Field Programmable Gate ARRAY is SUITABLE for algorithms having limited data SCOPE such as Fast Fourier Transform and digital filtering. However degradation of performance occurs when -FPGA is used for algorithms operating on BULK data such as database algorithms.
