An Image Processing Application: Design of VLSI based Bilateral Filter using Distance Matrix Method

The entire design structure is being impacted by advancements in electronic technology, which is posing a number of challenges for digital systems. In the fields of communications, image processing, and multimedia, VLSI-based image filter architectures are essential. Numerous applications based on VLSI architecture experience problems with significant size components that result in a filter design error during the floating-point arithmetic stages. The increased complexity of the filter design's component list is the issue encountered in the VLSI architecture. Noise removal often involves using the image filtering technique. There is a greater need for performance-based hardware sorting algorithms for low power embedded real-time image filtering applications. Noise often taints an image while being transmitted from one location to another. The purpose of the denoising technique is to reduce noise while keeping any potential signal features that may be significant. Compare to the prior method, the usage of multipliers can be reduced based on the techniques of distance matrix and hardware resource sharing. The speed of the proposed VLSI architecture for the bilateral filter can be faster than the existing approach.
