We present the implementation of real-time image filtering with retention of small-size details by means of use of DSP TMS320C6701. The filtering scheme is given for two filters connected in cascade. The first filter uses a similar scheme to KNN filter to provide the preservation of small-size details and the redescending M-estimators combined with the median estimator to provide impulsive noise rejection. The second filter uses an M filter to provide multiplicative noise suppression. We use different types of influence functions in the M-estimator to provide complex noise suppression. The efficiency of the proposed filter has been evaluated by numerous simulations.
