On the use of double-LSB and signed-LSB encodings for RNS [PDF]

2011 17th International Conference on Digital Signal Processing (DSP), 2011
Double-LSB and signed-LSB have been recently proposed as efficient encodings for addition and multiplication in the modulo 2n+1 and 2n±1 channels respectively of a Residue Number System (RNS). In this paper we introduce reverse converters for two 4-moduli sets that adopt these encodings and analyze their efficiency.
