Abstract
This paper describes a single unified algorithm for the calculation of elementary functions including multiplication, division, sin, cos, tan, arctan, sinh, cosh, tanh, arctanh, In, exp and square-root The basis for the algorithm is coordinate rotation in a linear, circular, or hyperbolic coordinate system depending on which function is to be calculated The only operations required are shifting, adding, subtracting and the recall of prestored constants The limited domain of convergence of the algorithm is calculated, leading to a discussion of the modifications required to extend the domain for floating point calculations

A pre-calculation beamformer design based on FPGA for ultrasound SA imaging

TL;DR: To achieve higher frequency, a look-up table which carries the distance information has been introduced in the FPGA-based SA beamformer and according the experimental result, the beamformer can be used as real-time ultrasound processor modules.

FPGA computation of magnitude of complex numbers using modified CORDIC algorithm

TL;DR: This work presents computation of the magnitude of complex numbers using a modified version of the CORDIC algorithm that uses only five iterations and the correction value is derived using the coordinate and magnitude values obtained after the fifth iteration.
