Abstract
A digital pipelined heterodyne circuit includes sine and cosine function generators for generating m-bit digital coefficients and an m-stage digital multiplier for multiplying the coefficients by a digitized data input signal. A triangular shift register array connects the digital sine and cosine function generators with the multiplier stages and provides for simultaneous processing of successive bytes of input data at each multiplier stage by delaying the arrival of coefficient bits at each multiplier stage to coincide with the arrival of a predetermined data byte. This takes place simultaneously in all stages thereby decreasing the processing time by a factor of m.
