Welcome to VOLK_GNSSSDR!
|
|
|
|
VOLK_GNSSSDR is the Vector-Optimized Library of Kernels for GNSS-SDR.
|
|
It is a library that contains kernels of hand-written SIMD code for different
|
|
mathematical operations. Since each SIMD architecture can be very different
|
|
and no compiler has yet come along to handle vectorization properly or highly
|
|
efficiently, VOLK_GNSSSDR approaches the problem differently.
|
|
|
|
For each architecture or platform that a developer wishes to vectorize for, a
|
|
new proto-kernel is added to VOLK_GNSSSDR. At runtime, VOLK_GNSSSDR will select the correct
|
|
proto-kernel. In this way, the users of VOLK_GNSSSDR call a kernel for performing the
|
|
operation that is platform/architecture agnostic. This allows us to write
|
|
portable SIMD code.
|
|
|
|
VOLK_GNSSSDR is a module generated from the original VOLK library https://www.libvolk.org
