    Abstract

    This paper presents efficient inverse discrete cosine transform (IDCT) and inverse discrete sine transform (IDST) implementations for High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). The proposal makes use of high-level synthesis (HLS) to implement a complete HEVC 2-D IDCT/IDST architecture directly from the C code of a well-known Even-Odd decomposition algorithm. The final architecture includes a 4-point IDCT/IDST unit for the smallest transform blocks (TB), an 8/16/32-point IDCT unit for the other TBs, and a transpose memory for intermediate results. On Arria II FPGA, it supports real-time (60 fps) HEVC decoding of up to 2160p format with 12.4 kALUTs and 344 DSP blocks. Compared with the other existing HLS approach, the proposed solution is almost 5 times faster and is able to utilize available FPGA resources better.
