Abstract :
In this paper, a low-complexity IP Core based on the CORDIC algorithm is proposed for image/video decoding process in compatibility with the standard MPEG-4 Visual and the standard H.264/AVC. This, Inverse Discrete Cosine and Integer Transform (IDCIT), can be used to support multiplierless 1-D 8-point IDCT and 1-D 4-point/8-point inverse integer transforms. Meanwhile, the number for CORDIC iterations and compensation steps are adjustable in order to compensate the video compression quality. The implementations are embedded in public available software XVID Codes 1.2.2 for the standard MPEG-4 Visual and the H.264/AVC reference software JM 16.1, where the experimental results show that a trade-off between video compression quality in PSNR and computational complexity is obtained.
