The GNU Radio runtime does not have any *DSP* floating point
dependencies, though the use of floating point is scattered throughout
for routine calculations.  You'd need a co-processor or software
emulation to handle this.

That being said, the majority of existing signal processing blocks are
written to work with single-precision floating point; you'd have to
write your own fixed-point stuff.
