FWR Toolbox
The Finite Wordlength Realizations Toolbox is a Matlab toolbox used to analyse the Finite Word Length effects of digital filters/controllers implementations and find 'optimal' realizations (according to open-loop/closed-loop sensitivity measures, roundoff noise gain,...).
The FWR Toolbox is developped, written and maintained by Thibault HILAIRE (main developper), and Yu FENG (contributor).
This tool is hosted by the INRIA gforge.
Description:
The FWR Toolbox is a MATLAB toolbox used to analysis the Finite Word Length effects of linear time-invariant digital filters/controllers implementations.
When digital filter/controller are implemented in computing machines (micro-controller, DSP, FPGA, etc.) with finite precision, a degradation occurs. It comes from:
- the addition of roundoff noise after each arithmetic operations,
- the rounding of the embedded parameters.
The FWR Toolbox provides a general description of any possible realization (direct form, state-space, δ or shift operator, observer-state-feedback, cascad decomposition, etc...) in a form that allows a straightforward analysis of the FWL effects. Several tools are provided to compute open-loop/closed-loop sensitivity, stability related measure, roundoff noise gain, ..., and to find optimal realizations, according to these criteria. It is also possible to generate fixed-point code (C code, VHDL, ...).
