A NOVEL ARCHITECTURE OF DISCRETE WAVELET TRANSFORM USING LIFTING SCHEME ALGORITHM
CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
The fundamental idea behind wavelets is to analyze according to scale. Indeed, some researchers in the wavelet field feel that, by using wavelets, one is adopting a perspective in processing data. Wavelets are functions that satisfy certain mathematical requirements and are used in representing data or other functions. This idea is not new. Approximation using superposition of functions has existed since the early 1800's, when Joseph Fourier discovered that he could superpose sines and cosines to represent other functions. However, in wavelet analysis, the scale that we use to look at data plays a special role. Wavelet algorithms process data at different scales or resolutions. Fourier Transform (FT) with its fast algorithms (FFT) is an important tool for analysis and processing of many natural signals. FT has certain limitations to characterize many natural signals, which are non-stationary (e.g. speech). Though a time varying, overlapping window based FT namely STFT (Short Time FT) is well known for speech processing applications, a time-scale based Wavelet Transform is a powerful mathematical tool for non-stationary signals. Wavelet Transform uses a set of damped oscillating functions known as wavelet basis. WT in its continuous (analog) form is represented as CWT. CWT with various deterministic or non-deterministic bases is a more effective representation of signals for analysis as well as characterization. Continuous wavelet transform is powerful in singularity detection. A discrete and fast implementation of CWT (generally with real valued basis) is known as the standard DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform).With standard DWT, signal has a same data size in transform domain and therefore it is a non-redundant transform. A very important property was Multi-resolution Analysis (MRA) allows DWT to view and process. For many natural signals, the wavelet transform is a more effective tool than the Fourier transform. The wavelet transform provides a multiresolution representation using

a set of analysing functions that are dilations and translations of a few functions (wavelets). These web pages describe an implementation in Mat lab of the discrete wavelet transforms (DWT). The programs for 1D, 2D, and 3D signals are described separately, but they all follow the same structure. Examples of how to use the programs for 1D signals, 2D images and 3D video clips are also described. As discrete wavelet transform are based on perfect reconstruction two-channel filter banks, the programs below for the (forward/inverse) DWT call programs for (analysis/synthesis) filter banks. The DWT consists of recursively applying a 2-channel filter bank - the successive decomposition is performed only on the low pass output. In each section below, the 2-channel filter banks are described first. The wavelet transform comes in several forms. The critically-sampled form of the wavelet transform provides the most compact representation; however, it has several limitations. For example, it lacks the shift-invariance property, and in multiple dimensions it does a poor job of distinguishing orientations, which is important in image processing. For these reasons, it turns out that for some applications improvements can be obtained by using an expansive wavelet transform in place of a critically-sampled one. (An expansive transform is one that converts an N-point signal into M coefficients with M > N.) There are several kinds of expansive DWTs; here we describe and provide an implementation of the dual-tree complex discrete wavelet transform. The dual-tree complex wavelet transform overcomes these limitations - it is nearly shift-invariant and is oriented in 2D [Kin-2002]. The 2D dual-tree wavelet transform produces six sub bands at each scale, each of which is strongly oriented at distinct angles. In addition to being spatially oriented, the 3D dual-tree wavelet transform is also motion selective - each sub band is associated with motion in a specific direction. The 3D dualtree isolates in its sub bands motion in distinct directions.

Introduction to Wavelet Transform

The wavelet transform is computed separately for different segments of the timedomain signal at different frequencies. Multi-resolution analysis: analyzes the signal at different frequencies giving different resolutions. Multi-resolution analysis is designed to give good time resolution and poor frequency resolution at high frequencies and good frequency resolution and poor time resolution at low frequencies. Good for signal having high frequency components for short durations and low frequency components for long duration, e.g. Images and video frames.
1.2.1 Wavelet Definition

A wavelet is a small wave which has its energy concentrated in time. It has an oscillating wavelike characteristic but also has the ability to allow simultaneous time and frequency analysis and it is a suitable tool for transient, non-stationary or time-varying phenomena. (a) (b)
Figure1.1 Representation of a (a) wave (b) wavelet
1.2.2 Wavelet Characteristics

The difference between wave (sinusoids) and wavelet is shown in figure 1.1. Waves are smooth, predictable and everlasting, whereas wavelets are of limited duration, irregular and may be asymmetric. Waves are used as deterministic basis functions in Fourier analysis for the expansion of functions (signals), which are time-invariant, or stationary. The important characteristic of wavelets is that they can serve as deterministic 3
or non-deterministic basis for generation and analysis of the most natural signals to provide better time-frequency representation, which is not possible with waves using conventional Fourier analysis.
1.2.3 Wavelet Analysis

The wavelet analysis procedure is to adopt a wavelet prototype function, called an analyzing wavelet or mother wavelet. Temporal analysis is performed with a contracted, high frequency version of the prototype wavelet, while frequency analysis is performed with a dilated, low frequency version of the same wavelet. Mathematical formulation of signal expansion using wavelets gives Wavelet Transform (WT) pair, which is analogous to the Fourier Transform (FT) pair. Discrete-time and discreteparameter version of WT is termed as Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT).
1.3 Types of Transforms 1.3.1 Fourier Transform (FT)

Fourier transform is a well-known mathematical tool to transform time-domain signal to frequency-domain for efficient extraction of information and it is reversible also. For a signal x(t), the FT is given by
Though FT has a great ability to capture signals frequency content as long as x(t) is composed of few stationary components (e.g. sine waves). However, any abrupt change in time for non-stationary signal x(t) is spread out over the whole frequency axis in X(f). Hence the time-domain signal sampled with Dirac-delta function is highly localized in time but spills over entire frequency band and vice versa. The limitation of FT is that it cannot offer both time and frequency localization of a signal at the same time.

1.3.2 Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT)

To overcome the limitations of the standard FT, Gabor introduced the initial concept of Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT). The advantage of STFT is that it uses an arbitrary but fixed-length window g(t) for analysis, over which the actual nonstationary signal is assumed to be approximately stationary. The STFT decomposes such a pseudo-stationary signal x(t) into a two dimensional time-frequency representation S( , f) using that sliding window g(t) at different times . Thus the FT of windowed signal x (t) g*(t-) yields STFT as
The time-frequency resolution is fixed over the entire time-frequency plane because the same window is used at all frequencies. There is always a trade off between time resolution and frequency resolution in STFT.
1.3.3 Wavelet Transform (WT)

Fixed resolution limitation of STFT can be resolved by letting the resolution in time-frequency plane in order to obtain Multi resolution analysis. The Wavelet Transform (WT) in its continuous (CWT) form provides a flexible time-frequency, which narrows when observing high frequency phenomena and widens when analyzing low frequency behaviour. Thus time resolution becomes arbitrarily good at high frequencies, while the frequency resolution becomes arbitrarily good at low frequencies. This kind of analysis is suitable for signals composed of high frequency components with short duration and low frequency components with long duration, which is often the case in practical situations.
1.3.4 Comparative Visualisation

The time-frequency representation problem is illustrated in figure1.2. A comprehensive visualization of various time-frequency representations shown in figure 5
1.2, demonstrates the time-frequency resolution for a given signal in various transform domains with their corresponding basis functions.

Difference between Continuous Wavelet Transform and Discrete Wavelet Transform

Wavelet transforms are classified into discrete wavelet transforms (DWTs) and continuous wavelet transforms (CWTs). Note that both DWT and CWT are continuoustime (analog) transforms. They can be used to represent continuous-time (analog) signals. CWTs operate over every possible scale and translation whereas DWTs use a specific subset of scale and translation values or representation grid. The word wavelet is due to Morlet and Grossmann in the early 1980s. They used the French word ondelette, meaning "small wave". Soon it was transferred to English by translating "onde" into "wave", giving "wavelet". The Wavelet transform is in fact an infinite set of various transforms, depending on the merit function used for its computation. This is the main reason, why we can hear the term "wavelet transforms" in very different situations and applications.
Orthogonal wavelets are used to develop the discrete wavelet transform Non-orthogonal wavelets are used to develop the continuous wavelet transform
There are more wavelet types and transforms, but those two are most widely used and can serve as examples of two main types of the wavelet transform: redundant and nonredundant ones.
The discrete wavelet transform returns a data vector of the same length as the input is. Usually, even in this vector many data are almost zero. This corresponds to the fact that it decomposes into a set of wavelets (functions) that are orthogonal to its translations and scaling. Therefore we decompose such a signal to a same or lower number of the wavelet coefficient spectrum as is the number of signal data points. Such a wavelet spectrum is very good for signal processing and compression, for example, as we get no redundant information here.
The continuous wavelet transform in contrary returns an array one dimension larger than the input data. For a 1D data we obtain an image of the time-frequency plane. We can easily see the signal frequencies evolution during the duration of 7
the signal and compare the spectrum with other signals spectra. As here is used the non-orthogonal set of wavelets, data are correlated highly, so big redundancy is seen here. This helps to see the results in a more humane form.
Applications of Discrete Wavelet Transform

Generally, an approximation to DWT is used for data compression if signal is already sampled, and the CWT for signal analysis. Thus, DWT approximation is commonly used in engineering and computer science, and the CWT in scientific research. One use of wavelet approximation is in data compression. Like some other transforms, wavelet transforms can be used to transform data and then encode the transformed data, resulting in effective compression. For example, JPEG 2000 is an image compression standard that uses orthogonal wavelets. A related use is that of smoothing/denoising data based on wavelet coefficient thresholding, also called wavelet shrinkage. By adaptively thresholding the wavelet coefficients that correspond to undesired frequency components smoothing and/or denoising operations can be performed. Other applied fields that are making use of wavelets include astronomy, acoustics, nuclear engineering, sub-band coding, signal and image processing, neurophysiology, music, magnetic resonance imaging, speech discrimination, optics, fractals, turbulence, earthquake-prediction, radar, human vision, and pure mathematics applications such as solving partial differential equations.

CHAPTER 2 Literature Review

2.1Introduction
VLSI Architecture to deign the Discrete Wavelet Transform for medical images storage and retrieval is carried out. Lossless is usually required in the medical image field. The word length required for lossless makes too expensive Thus, there is a clear need for designing architecture to implement the lossless DWT for medical images. The data path word-length has been selected to ensure the lossless accuracy criteria leading a high speed implementation with small chip area. The DWT represents the signal in dynamic sub-band decomposition. Generation of the DWT in a wavelet packet allows sub-band analysis without the constraint of dynamic decomposition. The discrete wavelet packet transform (DWPT) performs an adaptive decomposition of frequency axis. The specific decomposition will be selected according to an optimization criterion The Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), based on time-scale representation, provides efficient multi-resolution sub-band decomposition of signals. It has become a powerful tool for signal processing and finds numerous applications in various fields such as audio compression, pattern recognition, texture discrimination, computer graphics etc. Specifically the 3-D DWT play a significant role in many image/video coding applications.
2.1Types of compressions
There are two types of compressions 1. Lossless compression Digitally identical to the original image. Only achieve a modest amount of compression 2. Lossy compression Discards components of the signal that are known to be redundant. Signal is therefore changed from input

Lossless compression involves with compressing data, when decompressed data will be an exact replica of the original data. This is the case when binary data such as executable are compressed.

2.2 Reviewed Architectures of Discrete wavelet transforms and inverse discrete wavelet transforms 2.2.1 Discrete Wavelet Transform
The Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) is a popular signal processing technique best known for its results in data compression. As hardware designers, we are concerned more with the algorithmic details of the DWT, rather than the mathematical details discussed in the many papers which provide the foundations for wavelets. Algorithmically, the DWT is a recursive filtering process. At each level, the input data is filtered by two related filters to produce two result data-streams. These data-streams are then sub samples by two (or decimated) to reduce the output to the same number of data-words as the original signal. The low-pass filter output of this result is then further processed by the same two filters, and this continues recursively for the desired depth or until no further filtering can occur. This 10
recursive filtering process of the one-dimensional DWT is shown in Figure 1, where z is the input data-stream, a and d are approximation (low-pass filter output) and difference (highpass filter output) data-streams respectively. The subscript values show the level of output.
Figure 2.2 The DWT filtering process.
The filtering steps are multiply and accumulate operations. A filter in the algorithmic, discrete sense is a number of coefficient values. The number of these values is referred to as the filter width and these coefficients are also referred to as taps. At each data-word of the input, the filter spans across that data-word and its neighboring data-words as a window. The values within this window are multiplied by their corresponding filter coefficient and all the results are added together to give the filtered result for this data-word. The filtering operation extracts certain frequency information from the data depending on the characteristics of the filter. This filtering operation can be done with a systolic array. It is simple to implement a systolic array for each level of the DWT, but the arrays are poorly utilized due to the decreasing data-rates of the levels. It is possible, through some complex timing, to use a single array to perform all levels of the DWT.
11
2.2.2 Inverse discrete wavelet transforms

The inverse DWT (IDWT) is the computational reverse. The lowest low-pass and high pass data-streams are up-sampled (i.e. a zero is placed between each data-word) and then filtered using filters related to the decomposition filters. The two resulting streams are simply added together to form the low-pass result of the previous level of processing. This can be combined with the high-pass result in a similar fashion to produce further levels, the process continuing until the original data-stream is reconstructed. This process is shown in figure
Figure 2.3 The Inverse DWT filtering process.
We have previously developed an array for the DWT and are now designing an array for the IDWT. We present a simple discussion of the array with no detailed implementation specifics to allow the reader to understand the issues we are dealing with by the input buffering approach.
12
Discrete Wavelet Transform Architecture

The discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is being increasingly used for image coding. This is due to the fact that DWT supports features like progressive image transmission (by quality, by resolution), ease of compressed image manipulation, region of interest coding, etc. DWT has traditionally been implemented by convolution. Such an implementation demands both a large number of computations and a large storage features that are not desirable for either high-speed or low-power applications. Recently, a lifting-based scheme that often requires far fewer computations has been proposed for the DWT. The main feature of the lifting based DWT scheme is to break up the high pass and low pass filters into a sequence of upper and lower triangular matrices and convert the filter implementation into banded matrix multiplications. Such a scheme has several advantages, including in-place computation of the DWT, integer-to-integer wavelet transform (IWT), symmetric forward and inverse transform, etc. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that lifting has been chosen in the upcoming. The proposed architecture computes multilevel DWT for both the forward and the inverse transforms one level at a time, in a row-column fashion. There are two row processors to compute along the rows and two column processors to compute along the columns. While this arrangement is suitable or filters that require two banded-matrix multiplications filters that require four banded-matrix multiplications require all four processors to compute along the rows or along the columns. The outputs generated by the row and column processors (that are used for further computations) are stored in memory modules. The memory modules are divided into multiple banks to accommodate high computational bandwidth requirements. The proposed architecture is an extension of the architecture for the forward transform that was presented. A number of architectures have been proposed for calculation of the convolution-based DWT. The architectures are mostly folded and can be broadly classified into serial architectures (where the inputs are supplied to the filters in a serial manner) and parallel architectures (where the inputs are supplied to the filters in a parallel manner). Recently, a methodology for implementing lifting-base DWT That redues the Memory requirements and communication between the processors, when the image is broken up info blocks. For a system that consists of the lifting-based DWT transform followed by an 13
embedded zero-tree algorithm, a new interleaving scheme that reduces the number of memory accesses has been proposed. Finally, a lifting-based DWT architecture capable of performing filters with one lifting step, i.e., one predict and one update step. The outputs are generated in an interleaved fashion.
Figure 2.4 Lifting Schemes. (a) Scheme 1. (b) Scheme 2. The basic principle of the lifting scheme is to factorize the poly phase matrix of a wavelet filter into a sequence of alternating upper and lower triangular matrices and a diagonal matrix. This leads to the wavelet implementation by means of banded-matrix multiplications. Let and be the low pass and high pass analysis filters, and let and
be the low pass and high pass synthesis filters. The corresponding poly-phase matrices are defined as
If
is a complementary filter pair, then can always be factored into lifting steps as
Where K is a constant. The two types of lifting schemes are shown in Figure 14
Scheme 1
which corresponds to the factorization consists of three steps:
Predict step, where the even samples are multiplied by the time domain equivalent of and are added to the odd samples.
Update step, where updated odd samples are multiplied by the time domain equivalent of and are added to the even samples.
Scaling step, where the even samples are multiplied by 1/k and odd samples by k. The inverse DWT is obtained by traversing in the reverse direction, changing the
factor K to 1/K, K factor to i/K, and reversing the signs of coefficients in Scheme 2 which corresponds to the by traversing in the reverse direction.
and
. In
factorization, the odd samples are calculated in
the first step, and the even samples are calculated in the second step. The inverse is obtained The lifting scheme is a technique for both designing wavelets and performing the discrete wavelet transform. Actually it is worthwhile to merge these steps and design the wavelet filters while performing the wavelet transform. This is then called the second generation wavelet transform. The technique was introduced by Wim Sweldens. The discrete wavelet transform applies several filters separately to the same signal. In contrast to that, for the lifting scheme the signal is divided like a zipper. Then a series of convolution-accumulate operations across the divided signals is applied. The basic idea of lifting is the following: If a pair of filters (h,g) is complementary, that is it allows for perfect reconstruction, then for every filter s the pair (h',g) with allows for perfect reconstruction, too. Of course, this is also true for every pair (h,g') of the form . The converse is
also true: If the filter banks (h,g) and (h',g) allow for perfect reconstruction, then there is a unique filter s with .
Each such transform of the filter bank (or the respective operation in a wavelet transform) is called a lifting step. A sequence of lifting steps consists of alternating lifts, that is, once the low pass is fixed and the high pass is changed and in the next step the high pass is fixed and the low pass is changed. Successive steps of the same direction can be merged.

2.3.1 Advantages
1. Lifting schema of DWT has been recognized as a faster approach. 2. No need to divide the input coding into non-overlapping 3-D blocks. It has higher compression ratios avoid blocking artefacts. 3. Allows good localization both in time and spatial frequency domain 4. Better identification of which data is relevant to human perception higher compression ratio 2.3.2 Disadvantages 1. The cost of computing DWT as compared to DCT is higher because the number of logic gates used for DWT is more compared to DCT. 2. The use of larger DWT basis functions or wavelet filters produces blurring and ringing noise near edge regions in the images or video frames.
2.4 Lifting Implementation of the Discrete Wavelet Transform

The DWT has been traditionally implemented by convolution or FIR filter bank structures. The DWT implementation is basically a frame-based as opposed /to the blockbased implementation of discrete cosine transforms (DCT) /or similar transformations. Such an implementation requires both a large number of arithmetic computations and a large memory for storage features /that are not desirable for either high-speed or low-power image and /video processing applications. Recently, a new mathematical formulation for /wavelet transformation has been proposed by Swelden based on spatial construction of the wavelets and a very versatile scheme for its factorization /has been suggested in. This new approach is called the lifting-based /wavelet transform, or simply lifting. The main feature of the lifting-based DWT scheme is to break up the high-pass and low-pass wavelet filters into a sequence of smaller filters that in turn can be converted into a sequence of upper and lower triangular matrices, which will be discussed in the subsequent section. This scheme often requires far fewer computations compared to the convolutionbased DWT, and its computational complexity can be reduced up to 50%. It has several other advantages, including in-place computation of the DWT, integer-to-integer wavelet transform (IWT), symmetric forward and inverse transform, requiring no signal boundary extension, etc. As a result, lifting-based hardware implementations provide an efficient way 16
to compute wavelet transforms compared to traditional approaches. So it comes as no surprise that lifting has been suggested for implementation of the DWT in the upcoming JPEG2000 standard [8]. In a traditional forward DWT using a filter bank, the input signal (x) is filtered separately by a low-pass filter ( h ) and a high-pass filter ( g ) at each/transform level. The two output streams are then subsampled by simply dropping the alternate output samples in each stream to produce the lowpass ( y ~a)nd high-pass ( y ~su) b bands as shown in Figure 4.6. These two filters (k , i j ) form the analysis filter bank. The original signal can be reconstructed by a synthesis filter bank (h,g) starting from y~ and Y H as shown in Figure 4.6. We have adopted the discussion on lifting from the celebrated paper by Daubechies and Sweldens (141. It should also be noted that we adopted the notation (h, g ) for the analysis filter and (h, g ) as the synthes is filter in this section and onward in this chapter. Given a discrete signal x ( n ) , arithmetic computation of above can be expressed as follows:
Where TL arid TH are the lengths of the low-pass (K) and high-pass ( 3 ) filters respectively. During the inverse transform to reconstruct the signal, both y~ and Y H are first up-sampled by inserting zeros between two samples and then they are filtered by low-pass (h) and high-pass (9) filters respectively. These two filtered output streams are added together to obtain the reconstructed signal (2') as shown in Figure 4.6.
Figure 2.5 Signal Analysis and Reconstruction in DWT There are two types of lifting. One is called primal lifting and the other is called dual lifting. We define these two types of lifting based on the mathematical formulations shown in the previous section.

. WAVELET TRANSFORM DESIGN
3.1 1-D Discrete Wavelet Transform

3.1.1 2-Channel Perfect Reconstruction Filter Bank The analysis filter bank decomposes the input signal x (n) into two sub band signals, c (n) and d (n). The signal c (n) represents the low frequency (or coarse) part of x (n), while the signal d (n) represents the high frequency (or detail) part of x(n). The analysis filters bank first filters x (n) using a low pass and a high pass filter. We denote the low pass filter by af1 (analysis filter 1) and the high pass filter by af2 (analysis filter 2). As shown in the figure, the output of each filter is then downsampled by 2 to obtain the two sub band signals, c(n) and d(n).
Figure 3.1 sub band signal model The Matlab program below, afb.m, implements the analysis filter bank. The program uses the Matlab function upfirdn (in the Signal Processing Toolbox) to implement the filtering and downsampling. The synthesis filter bank combines the two subband signals c(n) and d(n) to obtain a single signal y(n). The synthesis filter bank first up-samples each of the two subband signals. The signals are then filtered using a lowpass and a highpass filter. We denote the lowpass filter by sf1 (synthesis filter 1) and the highpass filter by sf2 (synthesis filter 2). The signals are then added together to obtain the signal y(n). If the four filters are designed so as to guarantee that the output signal y(n) equals the input 19
signal x(n), then the filters are said to satisfy the perfect reconstruction condition. The Matlab program below, sfb.m, implements the synthesis filter bank. There are many sets of filters that satisfy the perfect reconstruction conditions. One set of filters, from [AS-2001], is shown in the Table below. These filters are approximately symmetric. The following code fragment shows an example of how to use the Matlab functions, afb.m and sfb.m. This example verifies the perfect reconstruction property. First, we create a random input signal x of length 64. Then the analysis and synthesis filters are obtained with the Matlab function farras.m. The two subband signals (here called lo and hi) are computed with the function afb.m. The output signal y is then computed using the Matlab function sfb.m. The maximum value of the error x - y is computed, and it is equal to zero (within computer precision). This verifies the perfect reconstruction property. A couple of remarks about the programs afb.m and sfb.m. Suppose the input signal x(n) is of length N. For convenience, we will like the subband signals c(n) and d(n) to each be of length N/2. However, these subband signals will exceed this length by L/2, where L is the length of the analysis filters. To avoid this excessive length, the last L/2 samples of each subband signal is added to the first L/2 samples. This procedure (periodic extension) can create undesirable artifacts at the beginning and end of the subband signals, however, it is the most convenient solution. When the analysis and synthesis filters are exactly symmetric, a different procedure (symmetric extension) can be used, that avoids the artifacts associated with periodic extension. A second detail also arises in the implementation of the perfect reconstruction filter bank. If all four filters are causal, then the output signal y(n) will be a translated (or circularly shifted) version of x(n). To avoid this, we perform a circular shift in both the analysis and synthesis filter banks. The circular shift is implemented with the Matlab function cshift.m.
20
3.2 Discrete Wavelet Transform (Iterated Filter Banks)

The discrete wavelet transform (DWT) gives a multiscale representation of a signal x(n). The DWT is implemented by iterating the 2-channel analysis filter bank described above. Specifically, the DWT of a signal is obtained by recursively applying the lowpass/highpass frequency decomposition to the lowpass output as illustrated in the diagram. The diagram illustrates a 3-scale DWT. The DWT of the signal x is the collection of subband signals. The inverse DWT is obtained by iteratively applying the synthesis filter bank.
Figure 3.2 Signal Analysis and Reconstruction in DWT
The Matlab function dwt.m below computes the J-scale discrete wavelet transform w of the signal x. We use the cell array data structure of Matlab to store the subband signals. For j = 1..J, w{j} is the high frequency subband signal produced at stage j. w{J+1} is the low frequency subband signal produced at stage J. The inverse DWT is computed with the Matlab function idwt.m. The perfect reconstruction of the DWT is verified in the following example. First we create a random input signal x of length 64. Then the analysis and synthesis filters are obtained with the Matlab function farras.m. The 3-scale DWT is computed with the function dwt.m. The inverse DWT is then computed to get the signal y. As verified below, y = x within computer precision. The wavelet associated with a set of synthesis filters can be computed using the following Matlab code fragment. In this example, we set all of the wavelet coefficients to zero, for the exception of one wavelet coefficient which is set to one. We then take the inverse wavelet transform.

3.3 2-D Discrete Wavelet Transform

3.3.1 2-D Filter Banks To use the wavelet transform for image processing we must implement a 2D version of the analysis and synthesis filter banks. In the 2D case, the 1D analysis filter bank is first applied to the columns of the image and then applied to the rows. If the image has N1 rows and N2 columns, then after applying the 1D analysis filter bank to each column we have two sub band images, each having N1/2 rows and N2 columns; after applying the 1D analysis filter bank to each row of both of the two sub band images, we have four sub band images, each having N1/2 rows and N2/2 columns. This is illustrated in the diagram below. The 2D synthesis filter bank combines the four sub band images to obtain the original image of size N1 by N2.
22
Figure 3.4 One stage in multi-resolution wavelet decomposition of an image The 2D analysis filter bank is implemented with the Mat lab function afb2D.m. This function calls a sub-function, afb2D_A.m, which applies the 1D analysis filter bank along one dimension only (either along the columns or along the rows). The function afb2D.m returns two variables: lo is the low pass sub band image; hi is a cell array containing the 3 other sub band images. The 2D synthesis filter bank is similarly implemented with the commands sfb2D.m and sfb2D_A.m.
3.3.2 2D Discrete Wavelet Transform

As in the 1D case, the 2D discrete wavelet transform of a signal x is implemented by iterating the 2D analysis filter bank on the low pass sub band image. In this case, at each scale there are three sub bands instead of one. The function, dwt2D.m, computes the J-scale 2D DWT w of an image x by repeatedly calling afb2D.m. Again, w is a Mat lab cell array; for j = 1..J, d = 1..3, w{j}{d} is one of the three sub band images produced at stage j. w{J+1} is the low pass sub band image produced at the last stage. The function idwt2D.m computes the inverse 2D DWT. The perfect reconstruction of the 2D DWT is verified in the following example. We create a random input signal x of size 128 by 64, apply the DWT and its inverse, and show it reconstructs x from the wavelet coefficients in w.
23
There are three wavelets associated with the 2D wavelet transform. The following figure illustrates three wavelets as gravy scale images.
Figure 3.5 gravy scale images Note that the first two wavelets are oriented in the vertical and horizontal directions; however, the third wavelet does not have a dominant orientation. The third wavelet mixes two diagonal orientations, which gives rise to the checkerboard artefact. (The 2D DWT is poor at isolating the two diagonal orientations.) This figure was produced with the following Mat lab code fragment (dwt2D_plots.m).

CHAPTER 4 Design of Hardware Model

4.1 Discrete Wavelet Transforms
The discrete wavelet transform (DWT) became a very versatile signal processing tool after Mallet proposed the multi-resolution representation of signals based on wavelet decomposition. The method of multi-resolution is to represent a function (signal) with a collection of coefficients, each of which provides information about the position as well as the frequency of the signal (function). The advantage of the DWT over Fourier transformation is that it performs multi-resolution analysis of signals with localization both in time and frequency, popularly known as time-frequency localization. As a result, the DWT decomposes a digital signal into different sub bands so that the lower frequency sub bands have finer frequency resolution and coarser time resolution compared to the higher frequency sub bands. The DWT is being increasingly used for image compression due to the fact that the DWT supports features like progressive image transmission (by quality, by resolution), ease of compressed image manipulation] region of interest coding, etc. Because of these characteristics, the DWT is the basis of the new JPEG2000 image compression standard.
4.2 One dimensional DWT

Any signal is first applied to a pair of low-pass and high-pass filters. Then down sampling (i.e., neglecting the alternate coefficients) is applied to these filtered coefficients. The filter pair (h, g) which is used for decomposition is called analysis filter-bank and the filter pair which is used for reconstruction of the signal is called synthesis filter bank.(g`, h`).The output of the low pass filter after down sampling contains low frequency components of the signal which is approximate part of the original signal and the output of the high pass filter after down sampling contains the high frequency components which are called details (i.e., highly textured parts like edges) of the original signal. This approximate part can still be further decomposed into low frequency and high frequency components. This process can be continued successively to the required number of levels. This process is called multi level decomposition, shown in Figure 3.1
25
Figure 4.1 One dimensional two level wavelet decomposition In reconstruction process, these approximate and detail coefficients are first upsampled and then applied to low-pass and high-pass reconstruction filters. These filtered coefficients are then added to get the reconstructed version of the original image. This process can be extended to multi level reconstruction i.e., the approximate coefficients to this block may have been formed from pairs of approximate and detail coefficients. Shown in Figure 3.2
Figure 4.2 One dimensional inverse wavelet transforms
26
4.3 Two-Dimensional DWT

One dimensional DWT can be easily extended to two dimensions which can be used for the transformation of two dimensional images. A two dimensional digital image which can be represented by a 3-D array X [m,n] with m rows and n columns, where m, n are positive integers. First, a one dimensional DWT is performed on rows to get low frequency L and high frequency H components of the image. Then, once again a one dimensional DWT is performed column wise on this intermediate result to form the final DWT coefficients LL, HL, LH, HH. These are called sub-bands. The LL sub-band can be further decomposed into four sub-bands by following the above procedure. This process can continue to the required number of levels. This process is called multi level decomposition. A three level decomposition of the given digital image is as shown. High pass and low pass filters are used to decompose the image first row-wise and then column wise. Similarly, the inverse DWT is applied which is just opposite to the forward DWT to get back the reconstructed image, shown in Figure 3.3
Figure 4.3 Row-column computation of 3-D DWT
27
Figure 4.4 Two channel filter bank at level 3 Various architectures have been proposed for computation of the DWT. These can be mainly classified as either Convolutional Architectures or Lifting Based Architectures. The number of computations required to find the DWT coefficients by the filter method is large for higher level of decomposition. This leads to the implementation of new technique called lifting scheme for computing DWT coefficients. This scheme reduces the number of computations and also provides in-place computation of DWT coefficients.

4.4 GENERAL IMPLEMENTATION FLOW

The generalized implementation flow diagram of the project is represented as follows.
Figure 4.5 General Implementation Flow Diagram Initially the market research should be carried out which covers the previous version of the design and the current requirements on the design. Based on this survey, the specification and the architecture must be identified. Then the RTL modelling should be carried out in VERILOG HDL with respect to the identified architecture. Once the RTL modelling is done, it should be simulated and verified for all the cases. The functional verification should meet the intended architecture and should pass all the test cases. 29
Once the functional verification is clear, the RTL model will be taken to the synthesis process. Three operations will be carried out in the synthesis process such as Translate Map Place and Route The developed RTL model will be translated to the mathematical equation format which will be in the understandable format of the tool. These translated equations will be then mapped to the library that is, mapped to the hardware. Once the mapping is done, the gates were placed and routed. Before these processes, the constraints can be given in order to optimize the design. Finally the BIT MAP file will be generated that has the design information in the binary format which will be dumped in the FPGA board.
4.5 Implementation
The 3D (5, 3) wavelet transform block and for the recovery stage 3D (5, 3) Inverse wavelet transform were designed.
4.5.1 Integer Wavelet Transform

In conventional DWT realizations, partial transform results need to be represented with a high precision. This raises storage and complexity problems. On the other hand, the Integer Wavelet Transform (IWT) produces integer intermediate results. Thus, it is possible to use integer arithmetic without encountering rounding error problems. There are different types of integer transforms like S(sequential) transform which is popularly known as Haar wavelet transform, S(sequential)+P(prediction) transform, CDF(4,4), CDF(2,2) also known as (5,3) transform etc. The two filter banks supported by JPEG2000 standard are Debauchies (9, 7) and Debauchies (5, 3) filter banks. Since the integer to integer wavelet transform coefficients are integers, it can be used in lossless compression. Since the aim of the thesis is to suggest a reversible (lossless) watermarking method so we will consider only (5, 3) Integer Wavelet Transform.
30
3-D (5, 3) DWT Lossless Transformation

The analysis and the synthesis filter coefficients ( both low pass and high pass) for Le Gall 5/3 Integer Wavelet Transform are as shown in the table 3.1. Table 4.1 Le Gall 5/3 Analysis and Synthesis Filter coefficients [17]. Analysis Filter Coefficients N Low Pass filter h(n) 0 6/8 + 2/8 + -1/8 High pass filter g(n) 1 -1/2
Equation 3.1 and Equation 3.2 shows the lifting steps for the 5/3 le Gall Integer Wavelet Transform. The rational coefficients allow the transform to be invertible with finite precision analysis, hence giving a chance for performing lossless compression. The equations show the lifting steps for (5, 3) le gall Integer Wavelet Transform. The even and odd coefficient equations for (5, 3) Inverse Integer Wavelet Transform are x ( 2n ) + ( 2n + 2 ) y ( 2n + 1) = x( 2n + 1) .. (3.1) 2 y ( 2n ) = x( 2n ) + [ y ( 2n 1) + y ( 2n + 1) ] .. (3.2)
4.5.2 The 3-D (5, 3) Discrete Wavelet Transform

Initially the Pixel values of any image will be taken with the help of MATLAB, which will be used as the primary inputs to the DWT Block. Basically 1-D (5, 3) DWT block diagram is developed based on the equations (2) and (3). The registers in the top half will operate in even clock where as the ones in bottom half work in odd clock. The input pixels arrive serially row-wise at one pixel per clock cycle and it will get split into even and odd. So after the manipulation with the lifting coefficients a and b is done, the low pass and high pass coefficients will be given out. Hence for every pair of pixel values, one high pass and one low pass coefficients will be given as output respectively.
31
Figure 4.6 Computation of Basic (5, 3) DWT Block in which a and b are lifting coefficients (a = -1/2 and b = 1)
The internal operation of the DWT block has been explained above and hence the high pass and low pass coefficients of the taken image were identified and separated. The generated low pass and high pass coefficients are stored in buffers for further calculations.

CHAPTER6 SIMULATION RESULTS

6.1 Introduction
The DWT process and the developed architecture for the required functionality were discussed in the previous chapters. Now this chapter deals with the simulation and synthesis results of the DWT process. Here Modelsim tool is used in order to simulate the design and checks the functionality of the design. Once the functional verification is done, the design will be taken to the Xilinx tool for Synthesis process and the net list generation. The Appropriate test cases have been identified in order to test this modelled DWT process architecture. Based on the identified values, the simulation results which describes the operation of the process has been achieved. This proves that the modelled design works properly as per its functionality.
6.2 Simulation Results

The test bench is developed in order to test the modeled design. This developed test bench will automatically force the inputs and will make the operations of algorithm to perform.
6.2.1 DWT Block

The initial block of the design is that the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) block which is mainly used for the transformation of the image. In this process, the image will be transformed and hence the high pass coefficients and the low pass coefficients were generated. Since the operation of this DWT block has been discussed in the previous chapter, here the snapshots of the simulation results were directly taken in to consideration and discussed. The input is 16 bits each input bit width is 20 bit width. The DWT consists of registers and adders. Whenever the input is send, the data divided into even data and odd data. The even data and odd data is stored in the temporary registers. When the reset is high the temporary register value consists of zero whenever the reset is low the input data split into the even data and odd data. The input data read up to sixteen clock cycles after that the data read according to the lifting scheme. The output data consists of low pass and high pass elements. This is the 1-D discrete wavelet transform. The 2-D discrete wavelet transform is 41
that the low pass and the high pass again divided into LL, LH and HH, HL. The output is verified in the Modelsim. For this DWT block, the clock and reset were the primary inputs. The pixel values of the image, that is, the input data will be given to this block and hence these values will be split in to even and odd pixel values. In the design, this even and odd were taken as a array which will store its pixel values in it and once all the input pixel values over, then load will be made high which represents that the system is ready for the further process. Once the load signal is set to high, then the each value from the even and odd array will be taken and used for the Low Pass Coefficients generation process. Hence each value will be given to the adder and in turn given to the multiplication process with the filter coefficients. Finally the Low Pass Coefficients will be achieved from the addition process of multiplied output and the odd pixel value. Again this Low Pass Coefficient will be taken and it will be multiplied with the filter coefficients. The resultant will be added with the even pixel value which gives the High Pass Coefficient. Hence all the values from even and odd array will be taken and then above said process will be carried out in order to achieve the High and Low Pass Coefficients of the image. Now these low pass coefficients and the high pass coefficients were taken as the input for the further process. Hence for the DWT-2 process, low pass coefficients will be taken as the inputs and will do the process in order to calculate the low pass and high pass coefficients from the transformed coefficients of DWT-1. In DWT-2, the same process as in DWT-1 will be carried out. Hence the simulated waveform is shown in the figure 4.2.
42
Fig 6.1 Simulation Result of DWT with Both High and Low Pass Coefficients Similarly the high pass coefficients from the DWT-1 block were taken as input to the DWT-3 block and hence further transformed low pass and high pass coefficients will be obtained.
6.3 Introduction to FPGA

FPGA stands for Field Programmable Gate Array which has the array of logic module, I /O module and routing tracks (programmable interconnect). FPGA can be configured by end user to implement specific circuitry. Speed is up to 100 MHz but at present speed is in GHz. Main applications are DSP, FPGA based computers, logic emulation, ASIC and ASSP. FPGA can be programmed mainly on SRAM (Static Random Access Memory). It is Volatile and main advantage of using SRAM programming technology is re-configurability. Issues in FPGA technology are complexity of logic element, clock support, IO support and interconnections (Routing). In this work, design of a DWT and IDWT is made using Verilog HDL and is synthesized on FPGA family of Spartan 3E through XILINX ISE Tool. This process includes following: 43

6.4 Synthesis Result

The developed DWT is simulated and verified their functionality. Once the functional verification is done, the RTL model is taken to the synthesis process using the Xilinx ISE tool. In synthesis process, the RTL model will be converted to the gate level net list mapped to a specific technology library. Here in this Spartan 3E family, many different devices were available in the Xilinx ISE tool. In order to synthesis this DWT and IDWT design the device named as XC3S500E has been chosen and the package as FG320 with the device speed such as -4. The design of DWT is synthesized and its results were analysed as follows.

CHAPTER 7
CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK 7.1 Conclusion
Basically the medical images need more accuracy without loosing of information. The Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) was based on time-scale representation, which provides efficient multi-resolution. The lifting based scheme (5, 3) (The high pass filter has five taps and the low pass filter has three taps) filter give lossless mode of information. A more efficient approach to lossless whose coefficients are exactly represented by finite precision numbers allows for truly lossless encoding. This work ensures that the image pixel values given to the DWT process which gives the high pass and low pass coefficients of the input image. The simulation results of DWT were verified with the appropriate test cases. Once the functional verification is done, discrete wavelet transform is synthesized by using Xilinx tool in Spartan 3E FPGA family. Hence it has been analyzed that the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) operates at a maximum clock frequency of 99.197 MHz respectively.
7.2 Future scope of the Work

As future work, This work can be extended in order to increase the accuracy by increasing the level of transformations. This can be used as a part of the block in the full-fledged application, i.e., by using these DWT, the applications can be developed such as compression, watermarking, etc.
