Summary: | Implementing the discrete wavelet transform, which is being increasingly recognized in image/video compression standards, in hardware is highly area-consuming. In this paper, a new high-performance lifting-based architecture with optimized error vs. hardware cost is proposed for the 9-7 DWT. In the proposed architecture each constant coefficient multiplier of the conventional lifting structure is split into two new constant multipliers in order to minimize the hardware implementation cost and quantization error. Using an optimization process the appropriate coefficients are determined according to the hardware cost and quality requirements of each application. Simulation results indicate an average quality improvement of 13.5 dB with the same hardware resources. For achieving the same quality, it requires 40% less hardware resources, which makes it suitable for embedded systems. |
