Abstract

The invention provides a decoding accelerator for variable length codes. The decoding accelerator for the variable length codes comprises a code word distinguishing unit which is configured to judge whether a code word to be decoded in an input code segment is a short code word, and a short code word decoding accelerating unit which is configured to calculate code segment request information for requesting a next input code segment after the code word distinguishing unit determines that the code word to be decoded in the input code segment is the short code word so that the code segment request information is acquired to request the next input code segment before the decoding of the code word to be decoded is finished. The decoding accelerator for the variable length codes can be applied to a decoding device of the variable length codes to increase the decoding speed of the whole decoding device of the variable length codes by accelerating the decoding short code words with higher frequency of occurrences.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to decoding of variable-length codes, and more specifically, to a variable-length code decoding acceleration device, a variable-length code decoding device and method using the variable-length code decoding acceleration device. Background technique [0002] Variable length code decoder is an important part of video decoder. The encoder uses codewords of different lengths to encode according to the frequency of symbols in the code stream. Symbols with high frequency of occurrence are encoded with shorter codewords, and symbols with low frequency of occurrence are encoded with longer codewords. Since the length of the codeword is not fixed, the entire decoding process has high interdependence, so it is difficult to speed up the decoding speed through parallel processing. The most commonly used variable length code decoding method is the look-up table method. In this method, a code segment with a fixed number of bits is rea...
