Discrete Cosine transform (DCT) and inverse DCT (IDCT) have been widely used in many image processing systems and real-time computation of nonlinear time series. In this paper, a novel lineararray of DCT and IDCT is derived from the data flow of subband decompositions representing the factorized coefficient matrices in the matrix formulation of the recursive algorithm. For increasing the throughput as well as decreasing the hardware cost, the input and output data are reordered. The proposed 8-point DCT/IDCT processor with four multipliers, simple adders, and less registers and ROM storing the immediate results and coefficients, respectively, has been implemented on FPGA (field programmable gate array) and SoC (system on chip). The linear-array DCT/IDCT processor with the computation complexityO(5N/8)and hardware complexityO(5N/8)is fully pipelined and scalable for variable-length DCT/IDCT computations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
