Abstract
Real time verification is necessary, since there are several features that cannot be verified through design simulation in the design of multiband soundbar system. And then this paper describes an implementation of an FPGA-based real-time verification system for a soundbar SoC with an embedded processor. It is verified a real-time performance test and a listening test which are several features in the design stage that cannot be verified through a design simulation. The measurement of quantitative specifications such as SNR, THD+N, frequency response, etc. as well as the listening test were performed through the implemented FPGA system, and it was verified that test results satisfied the target specifications.
