The accelerator is designed interactively in a simulation environment, using a DSP hardware design automation tool chain. The encoder part of the accelerator accepts 8×8 image blocks in a streaming fashion, and outputs the zigzag-scanned, quantized 2-D DCT coefficients of the block. The decoder part accepts zigzag-scanned, quantized DCT coefficients, and outputs reconstructed 8×8 image block. Each part has a throughput of one system clock per pixel per channel. The encoder employs a fast pipelined implementation for 2-D DCT [1]. For the decoder, a new pipelined 2-D IDCT structure is developed. Our IDCT structure is based on an IDCT factorization for software implementation [2], and is inspired by the pipelined DCT structure employed in the encoder. The resource utilization and maximum frequency figures for a particular FPGA target suggest that our accelerator has competitive performance.TurkishComputer aided designCosine transformsDiscrete cosine transformsElectric fault locationField programmable gate arrays (FPGA)Signal processingDCT coefficientsDSP hardwareFully pipelinedHardware acceleratorsIDCT structureImage blocksPipelined implementationQuantized DCT coefficientsSimulation environmentsSoftware implementationsPipeline processing systemsConference Paper10.1109/SIU.2007.4298563
