Abstract

In this paper, a novel architecture for an MQ arithmetic coder with high throughput is proposed. The architecture can process two symbols in parallel. The main characteristics are eight process elements for the prediction of probability interval A, the combination of calculation units for the code register C with the Byteout&Flush procedure, and the use of a dedicated probability estimation table to decrease the internal memory. From FPGA synthesis results, the architecture's throughput can reach 96.60M context symbols per second with an internal memory size of 1509 bits, which is comparable to that of other architectures and suitable for chip implementation.
