Abstract(in English) In recent years the popularity of television sets and computers with large screens has let to more opportunities to watch moving picture on high-resolution liquid crystal display (LCD) where it is quite necessary to convert low-resolution images to high-resolution ones at low cost. Super-resolution is a technique to remove the noise of observed images and restore the high frequencise of ones. We focus on reconstruction-based super-resolution because it can restore their own brightnesses. It produces a high-resolution image from a set of low-resolution images. Reconstruction requires large computation cost because it requires many images. However, it is necessary to improve arithmetic circuits' performance specific to reconstruction-based super-resolution since the reconstruction-based algorithms need more information on images. In this paper, we propose a reconstruction-based super-resolution using a weighted adder. Our weighted adder is implemented by using selector logics so that we can reduce carry propagations and improve the performance of reconstruction-based super-resolution. Finally, experimental results demonstrate that our proposed weighted adder circuit improves the performance by 13 % and reduces the area by 32 %, compared to conventional weighted adders.
