Application: Dsp eco system scalable with obfuscation (Patent ID: US20230409502A1)
The patent filed by BAE Systems Plc describes a system comprising encapsulation blocks with digital signal processing (DSP) blocks and pacing control networks connected to a streaming cross bar. Each encapsulation block includes a DSP block and a pacing control network, with the DSP blocks independently connected to the streaming cross bar through the pacing control networks. The system allows communication between DSP blocks in sequential or non-sequential order via the streaming cross bar, enabling reconfiguration and security levels to be managed separately for each DSP block.
The claims detail the independent connection of DSP blocks to the streaming cross bar through pacing control networks, facilitating communication between blocks with different logic functions and security levels. The system operates using a data-in-data-out streaming protocol, specifically an Advanced eXtensible Interface (AXI) streaming protocol. The method outlined involves encapsulating DSP blocks with pacing control networks, enabling communication through the streaming cross bar. It also includes processes for inputting and outputting data between DSP blocks via the pacing control networks and streaming connections. Overall, the patent focuses on a system and method for efficient communication and control of DSP blocks within an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC).
