Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) is a multicarrier modulation(MCM) system that enables high-speed communications using multiple carriers and has advantages of power and spectral efficiency. Therefore, this study aims to complement the existing shortcomings and to design an efficient MCM system. The proposed system uses the inverse discrete wavelet transform(IDWT) operation instead of the inverse fast Fourier transform(IFFT) operation. The bit error rate(BER), spectral efficiency, and peak-to-average power ratio(PAPR) performance were compared with the conventional OFDM system through the OFDM system design based on wavelet transform. Our results showed that the conventional OFDM and Wavelet-OFDM exhibited the same BER performance, and that the Wavelet-OFDM using the discrete Meyer wavelet had the same spectral efficiency as the conventional OFDM. In addition, all systems of Wavelet-OFDM based on various wavelets confirm a PAPR performance lower than that of conventional OFDM.

This paper describes the design of a block data flow architecture(BDFA) which implements 2-D discrete wavelet transform(DWT)/inverse discrete wavelet transform(IDWT) for real time image processing applications. The BDFA uses 2-D product separable filters for DWT/IDWT. It consists of an input module, a processor array, and an output module. It use both data partitioning and algorithm partitioning to achieve high efficiency and high throughput. The 2-D DWT/IDWT algorithm for 256$\times$256 lenna image has been simulated using IDL(Interactive Data Language). The 2-D array structured BDFA for the 2-D filter has been modeled and simulated using VHDL.

In this paper, in order to implement the IDWT(inverse discrete wavelet transform) with relatively low complexity, we propose a VLSI architecture for odd-tap linear-phase IDWT filters. By considering the symmetric property of the linear phase filter, the input is added to the one located at symmetrical position of the filter before filtering. Then. we rearrange the delay line of the filter in a U-shaped fashion. requiring no global interconnection between the components. The proposed architecture for the IDWT filter consists of delay units. operator units, adder units. and postprocessor unit. Since each units are configured regularly and interconnected locally. the proposed architecture can accommodate arbitrary linear phase IDWTs by simply adding/removing the corresponding units. The M -level IDWT can be implemented by interconnecting the proposed architecture in a cascaded or semi-recursive form. It is expected that the proposed architecture for the IDWT can be effectively employed in the related area including MPEG-4, since the proposed architecture is less complex than the conventional architectures.

Wavelet transform and its inverse processing provide the effective framework for data fusion. The purpose of this study is to investigate applicability of wavelet transform using texture images for the urban remote sensing application. We tried several experiments regarding image fusion by wavelet transform and texture imaging using high resolution images such as IKONOS and KOMPSAT EOC. As for texture images, we used homogeneity and ASM (Angular Second Moment) images according that these two types of texture images reveal detailed information of complex features of urban environment well. To find out the useful combination scheme for further applications, we performed DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform) and IDWT(Inverse Discrete Wavelet Transform) using texture images and original images, with adding edge information on the fused images to display texture-wavelet information within edge boundaries. The edge images were obtained by the LoG (Laplacian of Gaussian) processing of original image. As the qualitative result by the visual interpretation of these experiments, the resultant image by each fusion scheme will be utilized to extract unique details of surface characterization on urban features around edge boundaries.

In recent years, vision sensors are widely used to mobile robot for navigation or exploration. The analog signal transmission of visual data being used in this area, however, has some disadvantages including noise weakness in view of the data storage. A large amount of data also makes it difficult to use this method for a mobile robot. In this paper, a digital data compressing technology based on MPEG4 which substitutes for analog technology is proposed to overcome the disadvantages by using DWT(Discreate Wavelet Transform) instead of DCT(Discreate Cosine Transform). The TI Company's DSP chip, TMS320C6711, is used for the image encoder, and the performance of the proposed method is evaluated by PSNR(Peake Signal to Noise Rates), QP(Quantization Parameter) and bitrate.

In this paper, we propose a super-resolution algorithm using an adaptive weighted interpolation(AWI) and discrete wavelet transform(DWT). In general, super-resolution algorithms for single-image, probability based operations have been used for searching high-frequency components. Consequently, the complexity of the algorithm is increased and it causes the increase of processing time. In the proposed algorithm, we first find high-frequency sub-bands by using DWT. Then we apply an AWI to the obtained high-frequency sub-bands to make them have the same size as the input image. Now, the interpolated high-frequency sub-bands and input image are properly combined and perform the inverse DWT. For the experiments, we use the down-sampled version of the original image($512{\times}512$) as a test image($256{\times}256$). Through experiment, we confirm the improved efficiency of the proposed algorithm comparing with interpolation algorithms and also save the processing time comparing with the probability based algorithms even with the similar performance.

본 논문에서는 웨이브렛 변환을 적용한 광대역 음성부호화 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 음성부호화 알고리즘은 split-band 구조를 가지며, 16 kHz로 sampling된 입력신호를 QMF를 이용해서 동일한 대역폭을 갖는 두 개의 subband 신호로 나누고 이를 8kHz의 sampling율을 갖도록 downsampling 한다. 그리고 저대역 신호는 GSM-EFR 음성부호화 알고리즘을 이용하여 부호화하고, 고대역 신호는 DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform)을 적용하여 subband로 나누어 부호화하였다. 각 subband에서 양자화 된 파라미터는 IDWT(Inverse DWT)과정을 거쳐서 upsampling되고 합성 QMF를 통과시켜 최종 합성음을 구하였다. 제안한 음성부호화기는 저대역 신호의 GSM-EFR 부호화에 12.2 kbps, 웨이브렛 변환을 이용한 고대역 신호의 부호화에 7.8 kbps로 전체 20 kbps의 전송율을 가지면서 G.722 표준안의 56 kbps에서의 합성음과 비슷한 음질을 나타내었다.

Recently, the LCD has high market share in TV market. The use of motion images in portable devices like DMB, PMP and Cell Phone is growing rapidly. One of the technique of enhancing the LCD's characteristic which is the slow response time. But, the technique requires a lot of memory usage, because of the requirement of frame memory. In this paper, we propose a reduction method for the frame memory that is required for LCD overdrive. Proposed overdrive architecture based on modified DWT-Inverse DWT and Color Conversion. The proposed architecture has a considerable PSNR. At once, it uses 50% of frame memory size and reduces 15% of frame memory size compare with previous architecture. The design was implemented using Xilinx Vertex4 and had 2172 Slice except Memory.
