文摘In H.264,computational complexity and memory access of deblocking filters are variable,dependent on video contents.This paper proposes a VLSI architecture of deblocking filters with adaptive dynamic power,which avoids redundant computations and memory accesses by precluding the blocks that can be skipped.The vertical and horizontal edges are simulta-neously processed in an advanced scan order to speed up the decoder.As a result,dynamic power of the proposed architecture can be reduced adaptively(up to about 89%) for different videos,and the off-chip memory access is improved when compared to previous designs.Moreover,the processing capability of the proposed architecture is in particular appropriate for real-time deblocking of high-definition television(HDTV,1920×1080 pixels/frame,60 frames/s video signals) video operation at 62 MHz.Using the proposed architecture,power can be reduced by up to about 89% and processing time by from 25% to 81% compared with previous designs.
