Abstract

In this paper, we design and implement C-extensions for the compiler of a newly developed digital signal processor named SDR-DSP. SDR-DSP is based on VLIW and SIMD. It is developed to meet the performance requirement of software-defined radio. The high-level language programming environment for SDR-DSP is very important but the complexity of SDR-DSP architecture and instruction set limits the compiler implementation and optimization. We design and implement C-extensions for SDR-DSP compiler including intrinsics for special operations and pragmas for optimization. With our C-extensions, programmers can develop applications for SDR-DSP in high-level language and can get more optimized executable code than standard C implementation.
