Their jobs are accomplished through communication This thesis evaluates the usefulness of the SRC-6E reconfigurable computing system for a radar signal processing application and documents the process of creating and importing VHDL code to configure the user definable logic on the SRC-6E. The research builds on previous work which implemented a false radar imaging algorithm on the SRC-6E. Data from alternative computational approaches to the same problem are compared to determine the effectiveness of SRC-6E solution. The results show that the SRC-6E provides and effective solution for implementations with greater than 64 range bins. An evaluation of the SRC-6E difficulty of use is conducted, including a discussion of required skills, experience and development times. The algorithm test code is included in the appendices.
