What is 1024 point FFT?

A 1024-point, 32-bit, fixed, complex FFT processor is designed based on a field programmable gate array (FPGA) by using the radix-2 decimation in frequency (DIF) algorithm and the pipeline structure in the butterfly module and the ping-pone operation in data storage unit.

How do you calculate FFT of a signal?

The FFT operates by decomposing an N point time domain signal into N time domain signals each composed of a single point. The second step is to calculate the N frequency spectra corresponding to these N time domain signals. Lastly, the N spectra are synthesized into a single frequency spectrum. separate stages.

How many samples do I need for FFT?

The number of samples (N) in the FFT must be an integer power of 2. Therefore, N = 2^p, where p is a positive integer. This rule minimizes the number of multiplications—and therefore the computation time—needed to compute the coefficients of the Fourier series.
