Implementation and Comparison of the 5/3 Lifting 2D Discrete Wavelet Transform Computation Schedules on FPGAs

The suitability of the 2D Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) as a tool in image and video compression is nowadays indisputable. For the execution of the multilevel 2D DWT, several computation schedules based on different input traversal patterns have been proposed. Among these, the most commonly used in practical designs are: the row–column, the line-based and the block-based. In this work, these schedules are implemented on FPGA-based platforms for the forward 2D DWT by using a lifting-based filter-bank implementation. Our designs were realized in VHDL and optimized in terms of throughput and memory requirements, in accordance with the principles of both the schedules and the lifting decomposition. The implementations are fully parameterized with respect to the size of the input image and the number of decomposition levels. We provide detailed experimental results concerning the throughput, the area, the memory requirements and the energy dissipation, associated with every point of the parameter space. These results demonstrate that the choice of the suitable schedule is a decision that should be dependent on the given algorithmic specifications.

VLSI Architecture for Forward Discrete Wavelet Transform Based on B-spline Factorization

Based on B-spline factorization, a new category of architectures for Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) is proposed in this paper. The B-spline factorization mainly consists of the B-spline part and the distributed part. The former is proposed to be constructed by use of the direct implementation or Pascal implementation. And the latter is the part introducing multipliers and can be implemented with the Type-I or Type-II polyphase decomposition. Since the degree of the distributed part is usually designed as small as possible, the proposed architectures could use fewer multipliers than previous arts, but more adders would be required. However, many adders can be implemented with smaller area and lower speed because only few adders are on the critical path. Three case studies, including the JPEG2000 default (9, 7) filter, the (6, 10) filter, and the (10, 18) filter, are given to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed architectures.Chao-Tsung Huang was born in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, R.O.C., in 1979.
