Abstract(in English) This Paper describes a low-power systolic array architecture for a block-matching motion estimation for high-resolution video applications. The architecture features to reduce both computing cycles and memory accesses by using a ring-connected processing element array. Furthermore, the architecture allows various summation schemes for absolute difference. For that reason, it is applicable to various video coding mode such as the adaptive field/frame mode in MPEG2 and multiple macroblock mode in H.264. When the architecture is introduced a design of a MPEG2 MP@HL motion estimator VLSI, the power consumption of the processor is reduced by 45%-73% in comparison to cases with conventional architectures for motion estimation. A motion estimation processor using the architecture is applicable to portable high-resolution video systems.
