VLSI architectures for digital image coding
Mengyi Yan, John V McCanny, Yi Hu · International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing · 2002
A number of high-performance VLSI architectures for real-time image coding applications are described. In particular, attention is focused on circuits for computing the 2D DCT (discrete cosine transform) and for 2-D vector quantization. The former circuits are based on Winograd algorithms and compromise a number of bit-level systolic arrays with a bit-serial, word-parallel input. The latter circuits exhibit a similar data organization and consist of a number of inner product array circuits. Both circuits are highly regular and allow extremely high data rates to be achieved through extensive use of parallelism.>
