Hardware implementation of HEVC CABAC encoder

초록

CABAC is high-compression-ratio entropy coding in HEVC, but it is difficult to be parallelized for speedup. In this paper, a pipelined HEVC CABAC architecture is proposed to increase operating frequency. The proposed CABAC encoder was implemented in 0.18um technology with 158 MHz operating frequency and 45,088 gate counts. © 2015 IEEE.
