Abstract :
We present an architectural enhancement to reduce the power consumption of one dimensional full-search block-matching (FSBM) motion estimation. The architecture eliminates unnecessary computations and reduces the power consumption without sacrificing the optimality and high throughput. Both the new and old architectures are compared for power consumption in order to clarify the effectiveness.
