FPGA-Based Digital Taylor–Fourier Transform

Abstract

This research centers on the application of the discrete-time Taylor–Fourier transform (DTTFT) algorithmic implementation for phasor estimation on a field-programmable gate array board. The system employs a finite impulse response structure of a digital Taylor–Fourier filter to extract amplitude and phase information. The hardware description utilizes a multiply accumulator architecture with only forty embedded 9-bit multiplier elements, achieving an 18-bit input–output resolution. Performance assessment involves signal analysis through FPGA-in-the-loop simulation in MATLAB/Simulink. Findings demonstrate that the DTTFT-based phasor estimator can be effectively characterized using VHDL code and implemented on an Intel D2-115 board.
