title = "A FPGA pipelined backward adaptive scalar quantizer",
abstract = "A fully pipelined implementation in FPGA hardware of a backward adaptive scalar quantizer known as Jayant quantizer is presented. The implementation combines a fast systolic formulation of a uniform scalar quantizer with a multi-phase pipeline clocking mechanism based on embedded Delay-Locked Loops (DLLs) of modern FPGA devices. This combination shows that traditional fixed quantization based on look-up tables can be replaced by dynamic and adaptive quantizer circuits fast and small enough to be integrated into totally hardware solutions of standard lossy compression techniques.",
