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

SVD by constant-factor-redundant-CORDIC

TL;DR: A constant-factor-redundant-CordIC (CFR-CORDIC) scheme is developed where the scale factor is forced to be constant while computing angles for SVD (singular value decomposition) and provides an execution time similar to that of redundant CORDIC with variable scaling factor, with significant saving in area.

Reconfigurable Architecture of UFMC Transmitter for 5G and Its FPGA Prototype

TL;DR: The proposed architecture is the first reconfigurable architecture that has the flexibility to choose the number of subcarriers in a subband without any change in hardware resources and is comparable with the error bound.

Brief Contributions Error Analysis and Reduction for Angle Calculation Using the CORDIC Algorithm

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the errors appearing in angle computations with the CORDIC algorithm (circular and hyperbolic coordinate systems) using fixed-point arithmetic and show that the error is acceptable only if an input normalization stage is included, making unsatisfactory other previous proposals to reduce the error.
