The instantaneous frequency of a signal can be calculated from the discrete Hilbert transform, computed through the moving discrete Hartley transform, which reduces the computation time. To compute in real time the instantaneous frequency, the algorithms have been implemented in a FPGA device, exploiting the high performance and flexibility of reconfigurable hardware. The results obtained from the FPGA show high accuracy in comparison to those computed with Matlab %K Arquitectura y Tecnología de Computadoras %K Electrónica %K Frecuencias de análisis de señal %K Algoritmos de procesamiento de señal %K Sistema de diseño asistido por ordenador %K Transformada de Hilbert %K Frecuencias instantáneas %K FPGA %K Señales fonocardiográficas %K Frequency signal analysis %K Signal processing algorithms %K Computer-aided system design %K Hilbert transform %K Instantaneous frequency %K Phonocardiographic signal %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
