Description

Complex Fast Fourier Transform(CFFT) and Complex Inverse Fast Fourier Transform(CIFFT) is an efficient algorithm to compute Discrete Fourier Transform(DFT) and Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform(IDFT). Computational complexity of CFFT reduces drastically when compared to DFT.
This set of functions implements CFFT/CIFFT for Q15, Q31, and floating-point data types. The functions operates on in-place buffer which uses same buffer for input and output. Complex input is stored in input buffer in an interleaved fashion.
The functions operate on blocks of input and output data and each call to the function processes 2*fftLen samples through the transform. pSrc points to In-place arrays containing 2*fftLen values.
The pSrc points to the array of in-place buffer of size 2*fftLen and inputs and outputs are stored in an interleaved fashion as shown below.
 {real[0], imag[0], real[1], imag[1],..} 
Lengths supported by the transform:
Internally, the function utilize a radix-4 decimation in frequency(DIF) algorithm and the size of the FFT supported are of the lengths [16, 64, 256, 1024].
Algorithm:

Complex Fast Fourier Transform:

Input real and imaginary data:
    
 x(n) = xa + j * ya    
 x(n+N/4 ) = xb + j * yb    
 x(n+N/2 ) = xc + j * yc    
 x(n+3N 4) = xd + j * yd    
 
where N is length of FFT
Output real and imaginary data:
    
 X(4r) = xa'+ j * ya'    
 X(4r+1) = xb'+ j * yb'    
 X(4r+2) = xc'+ j * yc'    
 X(4r+3) = xd'+ j * yd'    
 
Twiddle factors for radix-4 FFT:
    
 Wn = co1 + j * (- si1)    
 W2n = co2 + j * (- si2)    
 W3n = co3 + j * (- si3)

Radix-4 Decimation-in Frequency Complex Fast Fourier Transform
Output from Radix-4 CFFT Results in Digit reversal order. Interchange middle two branches of every butterfly results in Bit reversed output.
Butterfly CFFT equations:
    
 xa' = xa + xb + xc + xd    
 ya' = ya + yb + yc + yd    
 xc' = (xa+yb-xc-yd)* co1 + (ya-xb-yc+xd)* (si1)    
 yc' = (ya-xb-yc+xd)* co1 - (xa+yb-xc-yd)* (si1)    
 xb' = (xa-xb+xc-xd)* co2 + (ya-yb+yc-yd)* (si2)    
 yb' = (ya-yb+yc-yd)* co2 - (xa-xb+xc-xd)* (si2)    
 xd' = (xa-yb-xc+yd)* co3 + (ya+xb-yc-xd)* (si3)    
 yd' = (ya+xb-yc-xd)* co3 - (xa-yb-xc+yd)* (si3)    
 

Complex Inverse Fast Fourier Transform:

CIFFT uses same twiddle factor table as CFFT with modifications in the design equation as shown below.
Modified Butterfly CIFFT equations:
    
 xa' = xa + xb + xc + xd    
 ya' = ya + yb + yc + yd    
 xc' = (xa-yb-xc+yd)* co1 - (ya+xb-yc-xd)* (si1)    
 yc' = (ya+xb-yc-xd)* co1 + (xa-yb-xc+yd)* (si1)    
 xb' = (xa-xb+xc-xd)* co2 - (ya-yb+yc-yd)* (si2)    
 yb' = (ya-yb+yc-yd)* co2 + (xa-xb+xc-xd)* (si2)    
 xd' = (xa+yb-xc-yd)* co3 - (ya-xb-yc+xd)* (si3)    
 yd' = (ya-xb-yc+xd)* co3 + (xa+yb-xc-yd)* (si3)    
 
Instance Structure
A separate instance structure must be defined for each Instance but the twiddle factors and bit reversal tables can be reused. There are separate instance structure declarations for each of the 3 supported data types.
Initialization Functions
There is also an associated initialization function for each data type. The initialization function performs the following operations:
  • Sets the values of the internal structure fields.
  • Initializes twiddle factor table and bit reversal table pointers
Use of the initialization function is optional. However, if the initialization function is used, then the instance structure cannot be placed into a const data section. To place an instance structure into a const data section, the instance structure must be manually initialized. Manually initialize the instance structure as follows:
    
arm_cfft_radix4_instance_f32 S = {fftLen, ifftFlag, bitReverseFlag, pTwiddle, pBitRevTable, twidCoefModifier, bitRevFactor, onebyfftLen};    
arm_cfft_radix4_instance_q31 S = {fftLen, ifftFlag, bitReverseFlag, pTwiddle, pBitRevTable, twidCoefModifier, bitRevFactor};    
arm_cfft_radix4_instance_q15 S = {fftLen, ifftFlag, bitReverseFlag, pTwiddle, pBitRevTable, twidCoefModifier, bitRevFactor};    
 
where fftLen length of CFFT/CIFFT; ifftFlag Flag for selection of CFFT or CIFFT(Set ifftFlag to calculate CIFFT otherwise calculates CFFT); bitReverseFlag Flag for selection of output order(Set bitReverseFlag to output in normal order otherwise output in bit reversed order); pTwiddlepoints to array of twiddle coefficients; pBitRevTable points to the array of bit reversal table. twidCoefModifier modifier for twiddle factor table which supports all FFT lengths with same table; pBitRevTable modifier for bit reversal table which supports all FFT lengths with same table. onebyfftLen value of 1/fftLen to calculate CIFFT;
Fixed-Point Behavior
Care must be taken when using the fixed-point versions of the CFFT/CIFFT function. Refer to the function specific documentation below for usage guidelines.
