A Detachable Full-HD Multi-Format Video Decoder: MPEG-2/MPEG-4/H.264, and VC-1

VLSI Implementation of a VC-1 Main Profile Decoder for HD Video Applications

In this paper, we present a high-performance VC-1 mainprofile decoder for high-definition (HD) video applications, which can decode HD 720p video streams with 30 fps at 80 MHz. We implemented the decoder with a one-poly eight-metal 0.13 μm CMOS process, which contains about 261,900 logic gates and on-chip memories of 13.9 KB SRAM and 13.1 KB ROM and occupies an area of about 5.1 mm2. In designi...

Flexible Multi-Core Platform for a Multiple-Format Video Decoder

9.5 A 249Mpixel/s HEVC Video-Decoder Chip for Quad Full HD Applications

The latest video coding standard High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) [1] provides 50% improvement in coding efficiency compared to H.264/AVC, to meet the rising demand for video streaming, better video quality and higher resolutions. The coding gain is achieved using more complex tools such as larger and variable-size coding units (CU) in a hierarchical structure, larger transforms and longer i...

A High Performance and Low Bandwidth Multi-Standard Motion Compensation Design for HD Video Decoder

Motion compensation is widely used in many video coding standards. Due to its bandwidth requirement and complexity, motion compensation is one of the most challenging parts in the design of high definition video decoder. In this paper, we propose a high performance and low bandwidth motion compensation design, which supports H.264/AVC, MPEG-1/2 and Chinese AVS standards. We introduce a 2-Dimens...
