[...]the applications of the ZCU102 platform for high-speed processing are explored, such as image and signal processing, visual recognition, and hardware resource management. [...]an in-depth overview of high-speed data processing applications, such as image and signal processing, visual recognition, and hardware resource management, based on Xilinx ZCU102 platform, is presented. [...]the paper is arranged as follows: in section 2 are presented the main FPGA devices' applications in 5G networks/systems, whereas, in section 3, the implementations of encryption/decryption algorithms by Xilinx Zynq Ultrascale+ MPSoC ZCU102 platform are described in the sub-section 3.1; the comparison of our high-speed and resource-efficient AES-128 encryption/decryption system [16] with other similar implementations is introduced in the sub-section 3.2. [...]an overview of the main applications of FPGA devices, based on the Xilinx ZCU102 platform, for high-speed processing is reported in section 4. The FPGA reconfigurability allows dynamically tuning the transmission capacity by changing the implemented services according to the capacity requirements. [...]the main FPGA producers are proposing on the market new FPGA-based platforms, with software programmability, multi-band functionality, and multi-standard hardware optimization along with hardware-level security.
