Because only part of modes is used to compare with each other the computational complexity can be reduced greatly. The simulation results show that it takes about 75 % of encoding time for other algorithm with similar visual quality.展开更多

By simplifying these transforms and exploring their similarities the proposed design merges the architectures processing individual transforms into a high-performance multi-transform coding architecture.Using a semiconductor manufacturing international corporation SMIC 0.18 μm complementary metal oxide semiconductor CMOS technology the proposed architecture achieves the maximum operating clock frequency of 200 MHz and the throughput rate of 800 ×106 pixel/s with the hardware cost of 3 704 gates.The results demonstrate that the data throughput rate per unit area DTUA of this design is at least 40.28%higher than that of the reference design.This design can meet the requirements of real-time decoding digital cinema video 4 096 ×2 048@30 Hz at 62.9 MHz which helps to reduce the power consumption.展开更多
