BIOSIG is an open source software library for biomedical signal proCessing. Library works well with Octave and Matlab. Special emphasis is put on EEG/MEG/ECoG, but also other types of biosignals like ECG, EMG, etc. are supported.
YSS915 (KP2V2) is an LSI for proCessing Karaoke voice signals.
This LSI has an A/D converter (1 channel) for the microphone echo, and a memory for the microphone echo and
key control. These features allow achieving the functions needed for the Karaoke system by using only one LSI
chip. As for the microphone echoes, many other types of echoes are available in addition to ordinary ones so that
YSS915 is applicable to various uses.
In addition to these Karaoke programs, YSS915 is able to provide the Movie & Music programs, with which the
surround effect is applied to the movie and music sources for giving the users more enjoyment.
YSS915 is pin compatible with and register compatible with YSS903 (KP2V).
Wavelets have widely been used in many signal and image proCessing applications. In this paper, a new
serial-parallel architecture for wavelet-based image compression is introduced. It is based on a 4-tap wavelet
transform, which is realised using some FIFO memory modules implementing a pixel-level pipeline
architecture to compress and decompress images. The real filter calculation over 4 · 4 window blocks is
done using a tree of carry save adders to ensure the high speed proCessing required for many applications.
The details of implementing both compressor and decompressor sub-systems are given. The primarily analysis
reveals that the proposed architecture, implemented using current VLSI technologies, can process a
video stream in real time.
