AbstractA new VLSI algorithm and its associated systolic array architecture for a prime length type IV discrete cosine transform is presented. They represent the basis of an efficient design approach for deriving a linear systolic array architecture for type IV DCT. The proposed algorithm uses a regular computational structure called pseudoband correlation structure that is appropriate for a VLSI implementation. The proposed algorithm is then mapped onto a linear systolic array with a small number of I/O channels and low I/O bandwidth. The proposed architecture can be unified with that obtained for type IV DST due to a similar kernel. A highly efficient VLSI chip can be thus obtained with good performance in the architectural topology, computing parallelism, processing speed, hardware complexity and I/O costs similar to those obtained for circular correlation and cyclic convolution computational structures.
