OFDM(orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) signal with high PAPR(peak to average power ratio) produces the nonlinear distortion and/or decreases down the power efficiency of HPA(high power amplifier). So, the IMD(inter-modulation distortion) reduction method was proposed to reduce the nonlinear distortion, which shows better BER(bit error rate) performance than the PAPR reduction methods. However, IMD reduction method has inherent problem which system complexity and processing time increases because the FFT(fast Fourier transform) processor is added in transmitter and decision criterion of IMD reduction method is computed in frequency domain,. In this paper, therefore, we propose a new IMD reduction method to reduce the computational complexity and structure of IMD computation. And we apply this proposed method into OFDM system using PTS(partial transmit sequence) scheme and compare the computational complexity between conventional and proposed IMD reduction method. This method can reduce the system size and computational complexity. Also, the proposed has almost same BER performance with the conventional IMD reduction method.

The necessity of the filter coefficients compensation for the LTJ adaptive filter was explained generally and easily by analyzing it with respect to the time-varying transform domain adaptive filter. And also the reduction method of computational complexity for filter coefficients compensation was proposed and its effectiveness was verified through experiments using artificial and real speech signals. The proposed adaptive filter reduces the computational complexity for filter coefficients compensation by 95%, and when the filter is applied to the acoustic echo canceller with 1000 taps, the total complexity is reduced by 82%

We propose a scheme which reduce the computational complexity of the lattice reduction (LR) aided detector in MIMO system. The performance of the ML detection algorithm is good but the computational complexity grows exponentially with the number of antenna elements and constellation points. LR aided detector shows the same diversity with the ML scheme with relatively less complexity. But the LR scheme still requires many computations since it involves several iterations of size reduction and column vector exchange. We notice that the LR process depends not on the received signal but only on the channel matrix so we can apply LR process offline and store the results in Look-Up Table (LUT). In this paper we propose an algorithm to generate the LUT which require less memory requirement and we evaluate the performance and complexity of the proposed system. We show that the proposed system requires less computational complexity with similar detection performance compared with the conventional LR aided detector.

In High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), integer motion estimation (IME) requires a large amount of computational complexity because HEVC adopts the high flexible and hierarchical coding structures. In order to reduce the computational complexity of IME, this paper proposes the search range reduction algorithm, which takes advantage of motion vectors similarity between different layers. It needs only a few modification for HEVC reference software. Based on the experimental results, the proposed algorithm reduces the processing time of IME by 28.1% on average, whereas its the $Bj{\emptyset}ntegaard$ delta bitrate (BD-BR) increase is 0.15% which is negligible.

In this paper, we propose the computational complexity reduction methods of delta pitch search that is used in G.723.1 vocoder. In order to decrease the computational complexity in delta pitch search the characteristic of proposed algorithms is as the following. First, scheme to reduce the computational complexity in delta pitch search uses NAMDF. Developed the second scheme is the skipping technique of lags in pitch searching by using the threshold value. By doing so, we can reduce the computational amount of pitch searching more than 64% with negligible quality degradation.

Partial transmit sequence (PTS) algorithm is known as one of the most efficient ways to reduce the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. The PTS algorithm, however, requires large numbers of computation to implement. Thus there has been a trade-off between performance of PAPR reduction and computational complexity. In this paper, the performance of PAPR reduction and computation complexity of PTS algorithms are analyzed and compared through computer simulations. Subsequently, a new PTS algorithm is proposed which can be a reasonable method to reduce the PAPR of OFDM when both the performance of PAPR reduction and computational complexity are considered simultaneously.

The filtering algorithm is used very frequently in the preprocessing stage of many image processing algorithms in computer vision processing. Because video signals are two-dimensional signals, computaional complexity is very high. To reduce the complexity, separable filters and the factorization theorem is applied to the filtering operation. As a result, it is shown that a significant reduction in computational complexity is achieved, although the experimental results could be slightly different depending on the condition of the image.

The emerging video coding standard High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) has shown almost 40% bit-rate reduction over the state-of-the-art Advanced Video Coding (AVC) standard but at about 40% computational complexity overhead. The main reason for HEVC computational complexity is the inter prediction that accounts for 60%-70% of the whole encoding time. In this paper, we propose several fast coding unit (CU) encoding schemes based on the Merge mode and motion estimation information to reduce the computational complexity caused by the HEVC inter prediction. Firstly, an early Merge mode decision method based on motion estimation (EMD) is proposed for each CU size. Then, a Merge mode based early termination method (MET) is developed to determine the CU size at an early stage. To provide a better balance between computational complexity and coding efficiency, several fast CU encoding schemes are surveyed according to the rate-distortion-complexity characteristics of EMD and MET methods as a function of CU sizes. These fast CU encoding schemes can be seamlessly incorporated in the existing control structures of the HEVC encoder without limiting its potential parallelization and hardware acceleration. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed schemes achieve 19%-46% computational complexity reduction over the HEVC test model reference software, HM 16.4, at a cost of 0.2%-2.4% bit-rate increases under the random access coding configuration. The respective values under the low-delay B coding configuration are 17%-43% and 0.1%-1.2%.

Vector quantization (VQ) is widely used in many high-quality and high-rate data compression applications such as speech coding, audio coding, image coding and video coding. When the size of a VQ codebook is large, the computational complexity for the full codeword search method is a significant problem for many applications. A number of complexity reduction algorithms have been proposed and investigated using such properties of the codebook as the triangle inequality. This paper proposes a new structured VQ search algorithm that is based on a multi-stage structure for searching for the best codeword. Even using only two stages, a significant complexity reduction can be obtained without any loss of quality.

In this paper, the necessity of the filter coefficients compensation for the lattice transversal joint (LTJ) adaptive filter was explained in general and with ease by analyzing it with respect to the time-varying transform domain adaptive filter. And also the reduction method of computational complexity for filter coefficients compensation was proposed using the property that speech signal is stationary during a short time period and its effectiveness was verified through experiments using artificial and real speech signals. The proposed adaptive filter reduces the computational complexity for filter coefficients compensation by 95%, and when the filter is applied to the acoustic echo canceller with 1000 taps, the total complexity is reduced by 82%.
