Dct of 4*4 matrix of an image

The JPEG compression scheme is divided into the following stages: 1. Transform the image into an optimal color space. 2. Adjust Aspect Ratio 16:9 3. Digitization Scheme 4:2:0. 4. Apply a Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) to blocks of pixels

An approximate kernel for the discrete cosine transform (DCT) of length 4 is derived from the 4-point DCT defined by the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard and used for the computation of DCT and inverse DCT (IDCT) of power-of-two lengt

In this paper, we present area- and power-efficient architectures for the implementation of integer discrete cosine transform (DCT) of different lengths to be used in High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). We show that an efficient constant matrix-
