Abstract
A digital signal processing apparatus is shown which is applicable for real time operation in the power spectrum of the detected outputs of ultrasonic Doppler blood flowmeter. The apparatus comprises a digital operating means, a memory means which is connected to said digital operating means to transfer data thereto and receive data therefrom, a fixed instruction generating portion for generating operating code for the digital operating means and addresses for the memory means, a read only memory for storing data of a squaring operation which has address inputs at the bit position selected as most suitable from the input data bus line of said digital operating means, an overflow detecting means when input data exceeds the region of the address input, and digital saturation circuit, whereby the power spectrum can be calculated by fundamental algorithm of WFTA having a smaller number of operating steps than algorithm FFT.
