Digital signal processors (DSPs) are unique microprocessors that are programmable and operate in real time--much faster than general-purpose microprocessors. They are particularly well suited to handling the demands of processing information and are used in 70% of the world's digital cellular phones.
With the introduction of WAP in Europe and I-mode in Japan, mobile terminals took their first steps out of the world of mobile telephony and into the world of mobile data. At the same time, the shift from 2nd generation to 3rd generation cellular technology has increased the potential data rate available to mobile users by tenfold as well as shifting data transport from circuit switched to packet data. These fundamental shifts in nature and the quantity of data available to mobile users has led to an explosion in the number of applications being developed for future digital terminal devices. Though these applications are diverse they share a common need for complex Digital Signal Processing (DSP) and in most cases benefit from the use of programmable DSPs (Digital Signal Processors).
Features contributions from experts who discuss the implementation and applications of programmable DSPs Includes detailed introductions to speech coding, speech recognition, video and audio compression, biometric identification and their application for mobile communications devices Discusses the alternative DSP technology which is attempting to unseat the programmable DSP from the heart of tomorrow's mobile terminals Presents innovative new applications that are waiting to be discovered in the unique environment created when mobility meets signal processing The Application of Programmable DSPs in Mobile Communications provides an excellent overview for engineers moving into the area of mobile communications or entrepreneurs looking to understand state of the art in mobile terminals. It is also a must for students and professors looking for new application areas where DSP technology is being applied.

Alan Gatherer is the CTO for Baseband System on Chip in Huawei Technologies, USA. He is responsible for R&D efforts in the US to develop next generation baseband chips and software for 3G and 4G basestation modems. Alan joined Huawei in January 2010. Prior to that he was a TI Fellow and CTO at Texas Instruments where he led the development of high performance, multicore DSP at TI and worked on various telecommunication standards. Alan has authored multiple journal and conference papers and is regularly asked to give keynote and plenary talks at communication equipment conferences. In addition, he holds over 60 awarded patents and is author of the book "The Application of Programmable DSPs in Mobile Communications." Alan holds a bachelor of engineering in microprocessor engineering from Strathclyde University in Scotland. He also attended Stanford University in California where he received a master's in electrical engineering in 1989 and his doctorate in electrical engineering in 1993.
