+
+Based on the current trend of implementing oscillator characterization circuits as
+digital electronics based on the concept of software defined radio, we aim at demonstrating
+in this paper optimal strategies for designing and scheduling filters in Field Programmable 
+Gate Arrays used to acquire and process radiofrequency signals. The complete abstract is

+Software Defined Radio (SDR) provides stability, flexibility and reconfigurability to
+radiofrequency signal processing. Applied to oscillator characterization in the context
+of ultrastable clocks, stringent filtering requirements are defined by spurious signal or
+noise rejection needs. Since real time radiofrequency processing must be performed in a
+Field Programmable Array to meet timing constraints, we investigate optimization strategies
+to design filters meeting rejection characteristics while limiting the hardware resources
+required and keeping timing constraints within the targeted measurement bandwidths. The
+presented technique is applicable to scheduling any sequence of processing blocks characterized
+by a throughput, resource occupation and performance tabulated as a function of configuration
+characateristics, as is the case for filters with their coefficients and resolution yielding
+rejection and number of multipliers.
