A High-performance Hardware Implementation of the H. 264 Transformation and Quantization Oriented to FPGA
This paper presents a high-performance FPGA hardware implementation of the H.264 transformation and quantization.The hardware prototype is composed of the whole processes from obtaining residual error to Macro-Block reconstruction
and it can be used as a co-processor of DSP to fulfill H.264 real-timing CODEC.Based on the characteristics of algorithms and data flow
the hardware prototype adopts pipeline strategy and time division multiplexing(TDM) technology
and utilizes FPGA dedicated resources reasonably
that enhances the performance of the hardware prototype greatly.The simulation results show that the design can satisfy the real-time constraints required by HDTV applications.
