Abstract :
We propose a new motion estimator with two types of embedded memory banks. Its overall system efficiency is extremely high for full-search block match algorithm (FBMA). The results show that its power-area product is nearly 1.13 and switching-overhead is low between FBMA and random-search block match algorithm in the case of CCIR-601 format
