Wireless Video Transmission

Hi,
I am making a wireless video transmitter and receiver. I need a processor that will apply DCT  to compress the video at the transmitter end and a similar device on receiver end to apply IDCT and decompress the data. Which is the best solution?

  • Hi,

    Thanks for your post.

    There are VICP signal processing library available for DM6446, DM6441, DM647, and DM648 devices through and there are VICP library kernel functions available for DCT which you could apply for. The list of kernels listed in the introduction section of the VICP userguide are to suggest the kind of processing that can be implemented and accelerated using VICP.

    Texas Instruments VICP Signal processing library is a collection of highly tuned SW algorithms that execute on the VICP H/W accelerator. You could download the latest VICP library from the below download link:

    In the Introduction of SPRUGN1C "VICP Signal Processing Library User Guide"

    http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/sprugn1c/sprugn1c.pdf

    There is a list of the algorithms that can be accelerated by the use of VICP Lib. 2.0 The list are:

    · 1D/2D filters

    · Array Arithmetic and Logical operations

    · CFA interpolation filter

    · Matrix Multiplication, Transpose

    · Color space conversion

    · Fast Fourier transforms

    · Wavelet transforms

    · Color signal down sampling

    · 2D/3D Table look-ups

    · Block Variance, Mean, Median filtering

    · Edge Enhancement

    · FIR Filtering

    · Color signal component suppression

    · DCT (discrete cosine transform) and IDCT (inverse discrete cosine transform)

    Kindly refer sections 6.1.22 & 6.1.23 for DCT library kernel functions from the VICP user guide shared above (sprugn1c.pdf)

    Thanks & regards,

  • Thank You Mr.Kuppuraj,
    I have two more questions.
    1)Since I intend to wirelessly transfer the video after compression, could you suggest a transmitter receiver pair for the same ?
    2) Is it possible to program the board in languages such python/C/C++ for image processing ?
