Abstract :
One of the major building blocks in an image data compression system is the discrete cosine transform or DCT; which can be achieved using specialized algorithms. This paper presents a method to implement the DCT compression technique using the Lee algorithm. Rapid prototyping based on FPGA platform of the Spartan-3E family is used to validate the operation of the described DCT system. This system offers significant advantages: portability, rapid time to market and real time, continuing parametric change in the DCT transform.
