In this paper, we describe an efficient high-speed implementation of the well-known arithmetic coding algorithm. The implementation is based on mapping the multiply-intensive computation of the arithmetic coding algorithm, on the embedded-multiplier rich, Xilinx Virtex FPGAs. The reported configurable hardware implementation accelerates the execution speed of the arithmetic coding algorithm, thus facilitating a wider usage of the algorithm in real-time coding applications such as audio and video compression.
