Abstract

In this paper, VLSI architecture of a joint parameter decoder is proposed to realize the calculation of motion vector (MV), intra prediction mode (IPM) and boundary strength (BS) for ultra high definition H.264/AVC applications. To achieve an efficient design, compact data storage formats are proposed for SRAM size saving and DRAM bandwidth reduction. Moreover, a 64-cycle-per-MB pipeline with simplified control modes is designed to enhance the throughput. Experimental results show the proposed architecture is capable of real-time QFHD@60fps decoding at less than 133MHz, with 26.7k logic gates and 3.6kB SRAM.
