SIMD memory circuit and methodology to support upsampling, downsampling and transposition

An apparatus and method for creation of reordered vectors from sequential input data for block based decimation, filtering, interpolation and matrix transposition using a memory circuit for a Single Instruction, Multiple Data (SIMD) Digital Signal Processor (DSP). This memory circuit includes a two-dimensional storage array, a rotate-and-distribute unit, a read-controller and a write to controller, to map input vectors containing sequential data elements in columns of the two-dimensional array and extract reordered target vectors from this array. The data elements and memory configuration are received from the SIMD DSP
