FPGA Real Time Acceleration for Discrete Wavelet Transform of the 5/3 Filter for JPEG2000 Standard

In recent years video and image compression have became very required . The availability of powerful software design tools is a fundamental requirement to take advantage of the many advanced and specialized resources included in the latest devices. Video acceleration and processing technologies have become critical for the development of many consumer electronics products. In this paper, we investigate Real Time FPGA implementation of 2-D lifting-based Daubechies 5/3 transforms using a Matlab/Simulink/Xilinx System Generator tool that generates synthesizable VHSIC Hardware Description. This system offers significant advantages: portability, rapid time to market and real time, continuing parametric change in the DWT transform.The proposed model has been designed and simulated using Simulink and System Generator blocks, synthesized with Xilinx Synthesis tool (XST) and implemented on Spartan 3A DSP based XCSD 3400A-4fg476 target device
