The influence of the number of Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) iterations on a wavelet OFDM (WOFDM) system performance is studied in this paper. The WOFDM transmission is tested on a flat, time variant radio channel. Basically, the number of DWT iterations coincides with the number of transmission scales used. Our simulations show that by increasing the value of this parameter, the BER perform...

This work proposes a DWT based Steganographic technique. Cover image is decomposed into four sub bands using DWT. Encoded Secret image using spiral scanning is hidden by alpha blending technique in HH sub bands. During embedding secret image is dispersed within HH band depending upon alpha value. Encoded secret images are extracted and decoded to recover the original secret image. In this appro...

In this work we propose several parallel algorithms to compute the twodimensional discrete wavelet transform (2D-DWT), exploiting the available hardware resources. In particular, we will explore OpenMP optimized versions of 2DDWT over a multicore platform and we will also develop CUDA-based 2D-DWT algorithms which are able to run on GPUs (Graphics Processing Unit). The proposed algorithms are b...

The theory and applications of wavelets have undoubtedly dominated the journals in all mathematical, engineering and related fields throughout the last decade. A variety of powerful and sophisticated wavelet-based schemes for image compression have been developed and implemented. Nevertheless these traditional approaches secure some severe limitations. Wavelets for example fail to capture regul...

In this research work adopted the frequency domain watermarking scheme which is embedded using discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and singular value decomposition (SVD). By singular values factoring it represent smaller set of values and it can preserve constructive feature of an original image. After that, apply discrete wavelet transform in decomposed in low frequency sub-band on both images to...

This paper presents two architectures for 2-D discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and inverse DWT (IDWT). The first consists of transform module, RAM module and address sequencer. The transform module, which takes uniform and regular structure with local communication, offers many advantages, e.g. simple control flow, full hardware-utilization and low-power. The second architecture features parall...

Digital watermarking is the process of embedding information into a digital signal. In this paper to improve the robustness, the hybrid DWTSVD based algorithm is proposed for embedding and extracting process. The suggested method is performed by modification on singular value decomposition of images in Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) domain. Modification of the appropriate sub-bands leads to a...

This paper deals with processing of wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) images from gastrointestinal tract, by extracting textural features and developing a suitable classifier to recognize as a normal or abnormal /tumor image. Images obtained from WCE are prone to noise. To reduce the noise, filtration technique is used. The quality of the filtered image is degraded, so to enhance the quality of ...

This research paper presents an approach towards VLSI implementation of Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) for image compression. The design follows the JPEG 2000 standard and can be used for both lossy and lossless compression. In order to reduce the complexities of the design, linear algebra view of DWT has been used in this research paper. This design can be used for image compression in a rob...

The Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) has gained widespread acceptance in signal processing and image compression. Because of their inherent multi-resolution nature, wavelet-coding schemes are especially suitable for applications where scalability and tolerable degradation are important. Most of the DWT architectures utilize pipelining and combinational logic design to reduce power and chip size...
