Optimizing UWB First Path Search Algorithm Performance on a Dedicated DSPVrbančič, Peter (Avtor) Vlaovič, Boštjan (Mentor) Eisendle, Christian (Komentor) UWBoptimizationDSPfirst path searchparallel data pathsintrinsic functionsdual HarvardThe aim of the thesis was to optimize the UWB first path search algorithm performance on a dedicated DSP. Development was focused on enabling various optimizations tech- niques of the DSP architecture. Insights into how the CIR is correlated, how the FP algo- rithm determines the actual FP are presented. The purpose of optimizing the FP algorithm was to improve the performance and lower the power consumption of the UWB system. The highly optimized DSP architecture contains numerous optimization techniques that needed to be discovered. With the optimization techniques provided by the DSP architec- ture, we were able to boost the FP algorithm performance by a significant amount, with potential for further enhancements.[P.
