RADIX-2 and RADIX-4
Radix-2 and Radix-4

  • Decompose the N-point DFT into sets of 2 and 4-point DFT's

  • Radix-4 has a very compact complex butterfly

  • Radix-4 saves 25% on multiplications and same number of additions as Radix-2

  • Both could be implemented as decimation-in-time or decimation-in-frequency forms
