Abstract

This work presents a new sample interpolator architecture for the motion compensation in H.264/AVC. The proposed solution saves hardware resources through a simplified filters organization, still reaching the needed throughput to real time decoding of HDTV 1920x1080 bi-predictive H.264/AVC video sequences. The new luma interpolator organization uses 4 vertical and 8 horizontal FIR filters and 4 bilinear filters. The chroma interpolator was designed using simplified multipliers. The target technology is Standard-cell implementation using TSMC 0.18 µm.
