Abstract:Abstract:In this paper, we present a new data structure element for constructing a Huffman tree, and a new algorithm is developed to improve the efficiency of Huffman coding by constructing the Huffman tree synchronously with the generation of codewords. The improved algorithm is adopted in a VLSI architecture for a Huffman encoder. The VLSI implementation is realized using the Verilog hardware description language and simulated by Modelsim. The proposed scheme achieves rapid coding speed with a gate count of … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
