Multiplierless Approximate 4-point DCT VLSI Architectures for Transform Block Coding (1405.0413v1)

Abstract: Two multiplierless algorithms are proposed for 4x4 approximate-DCT for transform coding in digital video. Computational architectures for 1-D/2-D realisations are implemented using Xilinx FPGA devices. CMOS synthesis at the 45 nm node indicate real-time operation at 1 GHz yielding 4x4 block rates of 125 MHz at less than 120 mW of dynamic power consumption.
