Abstract

A novel half-pel full-search motion estimation VLSI architecture for H.264/AVC video encoders is presented in this paper. Based on the processing element arrays eliminating redundant data accesses and attaining 100 % utilization, the architecture can be implemented with low clock rate while having high processing throughput. Such an implementation is particularly suited to applications requiring real time operations with high compression efficiency and low power.
