Abstract

Abstract A statistical processor has a calculating section for calculating and providing data required to perform a statistical processing on the basis of supplied sampling data every time when the sampling data are supplied to the statistical processor; a plurality of registers for respectively storing the data calculated and provided by the calculating section; a statistical calculating section for calculating and providing desirable statistical results on the basis of data transmitted from the registers; and a control section for controlling the operations of the calculating section, the registers and the statistical calculating section.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 179 words
A statistical processor for statistically processing at least two variable data sets each including a plurality of variable data values, said variable data values being applied sequentially to said processor during one or more predetermined periods, said processor comprising: an arithmetic circuit for performing predetermined arithmetic operations on input data values applied thereto during one predetermined period and for obtaining operating result data; a plurality of registers for storing said operating result data obtained by said arithmetic circuit, each of said plurality of registers storing respective operating result data obtained by said arithmetic circuit and being accessed when said respective operating result data is written thereto or read therefrom; at least one data selector for selecting said input data values from at least two variable data values applied during one or more predetermined periods and said operating result data in said plurality of registers to supply said selected input data values to said arithmetic circuit; and a controller for directly controlling a pipeline processing of said at least one data selector, said arithmetic circuit, and said plurality of registers.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 179 words
A statistical processor for statistically processing at least two variable data sets each including a plurality of variable data values, said variable data values being applied sequentially to said processor during one or more predetermined periods, said processor comprising: an arithmetic circuit for performing predetermined arithmetic operations on input data values applied thereto during one predetermined period and for obtaining operating result data; a plurality of registers for storing said operating result data obtained by said arithmetic circuit, each of said plurality of registers storing respective operating result data obtained by said arithmetic circuit and being accessed when said respective operating result data is written thereto or read therefrom; at least one data selector for selecting said input data values from at least two variable data values applied during one or more predetermined periods and said operating result data in said plurality of registers to supply said selected input data values to said arithmetic circuit; and a controller for directly controlling a pipeline processing of said at least one data selector, said arithmetic circuit, and said plurality of registers.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 26 words
A statistical processor as claimed in claim 1, wherein said pipeline processing is carried out until all data required to perform the statistical processing is obtained.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 66 words
A statistical processor as claimed in claim 1, wherein said processor operates in a plurality of modes each adapted to perform a respective one of a plurality of statistical processings on said two variable data sets, and said controller includes a mode switching circuit, receiving an external mode switching signal, for controlling the pipeline processing to perform said respective one of said plurality of statistical processings.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 25 words
A statistical processor as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a second plurality of registers for pre-storing therein data required to perform the statistical processing.
