Abstract
It discloses a serial FFT-based low-power MFCC speech feature extraction circuit, and belongs to the technical field of calculation, reckoning or counting. The circuit is oriented toward the field of intelligence, and is adapted to a hardware circuit design by optimizing an MFCC algorithm, and a serial FFT algorithm and an approximation operation on a multiplication are fully used, thereby greatly reducing a circuit area and power. The entire circuit includes a preprocessing module, a framing and windowing module, an FFT module, a Mel filtration module, and a logarithm and DCT module. The improved FFT algorithm uses a serial pipeline manner to process data, and a time of an audio frame is effectively utilized, thereby reducing a storage area and operation frequency of the circuit under the condition of meeting an output requirement.
