This paper presents new efficient architectures for high-speed implementation of direct form and local state-space form two-dimensional recursive digital filters. Unlike one-dimensional recursive systems, two-dimensional recursive digital filter algorithms possess a large amount of inherent concurrency, which can be exploited for fine-grain pipelining and/or parallelism. The locus of these concurrent computations is referred to as the concurrent computation region. The authors exploit this concurrency to derive fine-grain pipelined and one-dimensional block architectures for implementation of two-dimensional recursive digital filters by appropriate interleaving (or indexing) of the input samples, without requiring any algorithm transformation and without any hardware overhead. They extend the look-ahead computation and incrementation computation techniques to two dimensions, and use these to derive new two-dimensional incremental block filter architectures. The multiplication complexity of their two-dimensional incremental block filter is compared to that of existing block structures. Fine-grain pipelined two-dimensional block structures are presented. The index mapping functions are used to derive delay operators for various architectures.
