Multiplierless, Folded 9/7– 5/3 Wavelet VLSI Architecture

Maurizio Martina, Guido Masera · IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II Analog and Digital Signal Processing · 2007

This brief proposes a multiplierless VLSI architecture for the famous 9/7 wavelet filters. The novelty of this architecture is the possibility to compute the 5/3 wavelet results into the 9/7 data path with a reduced number of adders compared to other solutions. The multiplierless architecture has been characterized in terms of performance through simulations into a JPEG2000 environment and compared to other solutions. Implementation on a 0.13-mum standard cell technology shows that the proposed architecture compared to other multiplierless architectures requires a reduced amount of logic with excellent performance.
