Discrete cosine transform (DCT) is the most widely used transformation technique in the field of signal processing particularly in the areas of image data. This paper addresses the design of parallel architectures for computing DCT using CORDIC. It concentrates on indirect methods, which avoids decomposition of direct DCT equation. In this paper, CORDIC methodology has been used to simplify the traditional indirect techniques for the computation of DCT. The proposed methodology is CORDIC friendly and maintains a regular structure, thereby reducing computational complexity. DCTs are used extensively in the area of digital processing for the purpose of pattern recognition. So the efficient computation of DCT maintaining a transparent design flow is highly solicited.
