Abstract
This paper describes an innovative, pipelined, cache-based architecture for a motion estimation coprocessor based on a predictive/recursive algorithm whose computational complexity is low and independent of the search window. The synergies between architecture and algorithm's features allow a high picture quality, low-area, low-bandwidth, unlimited search window implementation for standard resolution (PAL/NTSC), low resolution (CIF/QCIF) or high resolution (ATSC) sequences.
