Abstract

The adaptive arithmetic codec is one of the key algorithms of JPEG2000 standard. Its complexity of implementation is relatively high. In this paper Handel-C language is used as hardware description language to design the arithmetic decoder of JPEG2000. The design is debugged and synthesized under the Celoxica Design Kit. The experimental results show that we can implement arithmetic decoder to FPGA or ASIC faster with higher performance compared with traditional HDL design methodologies. Handel-C language is a good choice for complex algorithms to VLSI implementation.
