Fetal ECG extraction from abdominal ECG is critical task for telemonitoring of fetus which require lot of understanding to the subject. Conventional source separation methods are not efficient enough to separate FECG from huge multichannel ECG. Thus use of compression technique is needed to compress and reconstruct ECG signal without any significant losses in quality of signal. Compressed sensing shows promising results for such tasks. However, current compressed sensing theory is not so far that successful due to the non-sparsity and strong noise contamination present in ECG signal. The proposed work explores the concept of block compressed sensing to reconstruct non-sparse FECG signal using GFOCUSS algorithm. The main objective of this paper is not only to successfully reconstruct the ECG signal but to efficiently separate FECG from abdominal ECG. The proposed algorithm is explained in very extensive manner for all experiments. The key feature of proposed method is, that it doesn’t affect the interdependence relation between multichannel ECG. The useof walsh sensing matrix made it possible to achieve high compression ratio. Experimental results shows that even at very high compression ratio, successful FECG reconstruction from raw ECG is possible. These results are validated using PSNR, SINR, and MSE. This shows the framework, compared to other algorithms such as current blocking CS algorithms, rackness CS algorithm and wavelet algorithms, can greatly reduce code execution time during data compression stage and achieve better reconstruction in terms of MSE, PSNR and SINR.

The domain of image signal processing, image compression is the significant technique, which is mainly invented to reduce the redundancy of image data in order to able to transmit the image pixels with high quality resolution. The standard image compression techniques like losseless and lossy compression technique generates high compression ratio image with efficient storage and transmission requirement respectively. There are many image compression technique are available for example JPEG, DWT and DCT based compression algorithms which provides effective results in terms of high compression ratio with clear quality image transformation. But they have more computational complexities in terms of processing, encoding, energy consumption and hardware design. Thus, bringing out these challenges, the proposed paper considers the most prominent research papers and discuses FPGA architecture design and future scope in the state of art of image compression technique. The primary aim to investigate the research challenges toward VLSI designing and image compression. The core section of the proposed study includes three folds viz standard architecture designs, related work and open research challenges in the domain of image compression.

The goal of compression techniques is to reducing the size of data and decreasing the communication cost while transferring data. Fractal based coding technique is widely used to compress images files which provides high compression ratio and good image quality. However, like a compression technique, it is still limited because of the difference of the human perceptions between audio and image files, the long time for searching the best possible domain blocks and many comparisons in the encoding process. For those reasons, Fractal Coding had not broadly studied on audio data. Few years ago, Fractal Coding has been extended to apply on the audio data. In this paper, the application of the Fractal Coding on different types of audio files is investigated. Moreover, the effect of block length on the audio quality and compression performance are highlighted since block length is considered the main factor in the Fractal Coding algorithm. A GTZAN dataset is adopted in the evaluation and the experimental results show that there is an inverse relationship between block length and audio quality and proportional relationship between block length and compression ratio and factor. Furthermore, it can be noticed that the Fractal Coding can be compressed any speech and music audio signal directly with acceptable quality, PSNR 39 dB on average with a high compression ratio around 90 % with compression factor around 10 when the block length is 20 samples.

A novel Adaptive Lossy Image Compression (ALIC) technique is proposed to achieve high compression ratio by reducing the number of source symbols through the application of an efficient technique. The proposed algorithm is based on processing the discrete cosine transform (DCT) of the image to extract the highest energy coefficients in addition to applying one of the novel quantization schemes proposed in the present work. This method is straightforward and simple. It does not need complicated calculation; therefore the hardware implementation is easy to attach. Experimental comparisons are carried out to compare the performance of the proposed technique with those of other standard techniques such as the JPEG. The experimental results show that the proposed compression technique achieves high compression ratio with higher peak signal to noise ratio than that of JPEG at low bit rate without the visual degradation that appears in case of JPEG.
