VLSI Processor Array For Adaptive Radar Applications

A VLSI Multiplication Oriented Processor (MOP) element has been designed for use in array-based 1-D and 2-D modern digital radar applications. We describe how this chip can be used to provide extremely high throughput rates for problems such as beam forming, adaptive Doppler filtering, and high resolution direction finding.
