Abstract
In this paper a power efficient lifting-based Wavelet transform IP, well suited for mobile and tetherless applications, is proposed. Recently, reconfigurable architectures, driven by new communication technology challenges and by mobile market explosion have moved developers interest towards novel IPs design strategies. Despite the increasing importance gathered by easily retargettable blocks, a lack of power conscious cores is felt by developer’s community. This IP is intended to be employed as the source coding kernel in many multimedia emerging algorithms. From post-place and route simulation a power dissipation of 36.6 mW has been obtained on a Xilinx XCV200E.
