Motion Estimation Testing Applications using Error Detection and Data Recovery Architecture

Abstract: This paper presents an error detection and data recovery (EDDR) design, based on the residue-and-quotient (RQ) code, to embed into motion estimation (ME) for video coding testing applications. An error in processing elements (PEs), i.e. key components of a ME, can be detected and recovered effectively by using the EDDR design. The proposed EDDR design for ME testing can detect errors and recover data with an acceptable area overhead and timing penalty. The functional verification and synthesis can be done by Xilinx ISE. That is when compare to the existing design the implemented design area and timing will be reduced..
