Technical Field
The application belongs to the technical field of image processing, and particularly relates to a data decompression method applied to an FPGA, imaging equipment and an automobile.
Background
In the field of audio and video transmission, in order to save transmission bandwidth, a sending end generally needs to compress data before transmitting data, and a receiving end decompresses the data after receiving the data. The decompression process is generally the inverse operation of the compression process.
For example, in the conventional image transmission, the original image is generally transmitted after being compressed, and in the compression, a multiplication operation is generally adopted.

Summary of The Invention
In the field of signal transmission, in order to save bandwidth, a transmitting end usually aligns original data D with larger bandwidth before transmitting the dataorgPerforming compression processing, wherein the compression processing comprises the step of compressing the original data DorgMultiplying with a number less than 1 to obtain compressed data D with small bit widthcmpAccordingly, the receiving end receives the compressed data DcmpThen decompression processing is needed, and the decompression processing process comprises the step of compressing the data DcmpThe decompressed data is obtained by dividing by the above number smaller than 1.
When the receiving end is an FPGA, the division operation is performed in the decompression processing process, and the FPGA has the disadvantages of high delay, large resource occupation, poor stability and the like in the aspect of the division operation, so that the processing speed of the data decompression process is slow, and the transmission process is blocked. In addition, when the FPGA stores the decimal, the decimal can only be implemented by storing the binary positive integer and then performing right shift operation on the binary positive integer, and this storage mode also causes a slow processing speed and a high delay time in the decompression process.
In order to overcome the above problem, an embodiment of the present application provides a data decompression method applied to an FPGA, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes:
step S100, obtaining compressed data DcmpAnd a compression factor gain.
Wherein the data D is compressedcmpOriginal data DorgThe compression coefficient gain is binary data, and the compression coefficient gain is m bits (m is a positive integer).
Compressed data DcmpIs made up of the original data DorgThe data obtained by multiplication with the compression coefficient gain shifted to the right by s bits (s is a positive integer) has the following characteristics because the shift of the binary data by the FPGA is equivalent to the multiplication:
Dcmp=Dorg×gain×2-s(formula 1)
The compression coefficient gain shifted to the right by s bits is actually a decimal used for multiplication in compression processing stored by the FPGA, and the FPGA cannot directly store the decimal, so that the compression coefficient gain is realized by storing a binary positive integer compression coefficient gain and shifting the compression coefficient gain to the right by s bits.
For example, the compression factor gain is 24-bit binary data, and is shifted to the right by 24 bits, i.e. m is 24 and s is 24, then: dcmp=Dorg×gain×2-24
Step S102, when the digit m of the compression coefficient gain is judged to be larger than a preset fixed value n (n is a positive integer), determining data obtained by shifting the compression coefficient gain to the right by m and subtracting n bits as first data D1; and determining the compression coefficient gain as the first data D1 when the bit number m of the compression coefficient gain is judged to be less than or equal to a preset fixed value n.
According to this step, the following formula is given:
when m is greater than n, D1 ═ gain>>(m-n)=gain×2-m+n(formula 2)
When m is less than or equal to n, D1 ═ gain (formula 9)
For example, n is a fixed positive integer 10, and if m is 24, the compression coefficient gain is shifted to the right by 14 bits to obtain first data D1; if m is 8, the compression coefficient gain is determined as the first data D1.
And step S104, searching the second data D2 corresponding to the first data D1 in a pre-established lookup table, wherein the lookup table comprises binary second data D2 obtained by shifting the reciprocal of each positive integer from n bits 0 to n bits 1 of the binary system by S bits.
For example, if n is a fixed positive integer 10, the lookup table includes binary value ranges 0000000000 to 1111111111 (i.e. decimal 0-2)10-1) left-shifting the reciprocal of each positive integer by s bits resulting in binary second data D2. The first data D1 may be any positive integer in a lookup table, and since the reciprocal of each positive integer in the lookup table is a decimal, the FPGA stores the second data D2 obtained by shifting the decimal left by s bits.
According to the stepSudden, D2 ═ 1/D1)<<s=(1/D1)×2s(formula 3)
In step S106, the second data D2 corresponding to the first data D1 is shifted to the right by m minus n bits to determine the third data D3.
That is, D3 ═ D2>>(m-n)=D2×2-m+n(formula 4)
Step S108, compressing the data DcmpMultiplication is carried out with the third data D3 to obtain decompressed data Dun-cmp
I.e. Dun-cmp=DcmpX D3 (formula 5)
The following can be obtained according to the above equations 1 to 5:
Dorg=Dcmp×(1/gain)×2s(formula 6)
Dun-cmp=Dcmp×(1/D1)×2s-m+n(formula 7)
gain=D1×2m-n(formula 8)
From the above equations 6 to 8, it can be seen that: decompressing data Dun-cmpApproximately equal to the original data Dorg
It should be noted that, in formula 2, since the first data D1 is binary data obtained by right shifting the compression coefficient gain by m minus n bits, that is, the first data D1 is data obtained by discarding shifted m minus n bits by the compression coefficient gain, the reciprocal of the first data D1 is only approximately equal to the reciprocal of the compression coefficient gain, and the resulting decompressed data Dun-cmpApproximately equal to the original data Dorg
As can be seen from the above equations 6, 7 and 9: decompressing data Dun-cmpApproximately equal to the original data Dorg
Although equation 9 includes D1 being equal to gain, the binary data obtained by taking the reciprocal of the first data D1 and the compression coefficient gain may have different bits, and the accuracy of the binary data is directly affected by the bits, so that the reciprocal of the first data D1 is also only approximately equal to the reciprocal of the compression coefficient gain, and the resulting decompressed data D is obtainedun-cmpApproximately equal to the original data Dorg
For the compression coefficient gain with m bits, if the existing FPGA table lookup method is used to perform the data decompression method, 2 needs to be stored in the lookup tablemIf the data decompression method provided by the application is adopted, 2 is stored in the lookup table at mostnAnd the reciprocal of the time is greatly saved, the storage resource of the FPGA is greatly saved, and the search time is reduced.
Thus, although the data D is decompressedun-cmpWith respect to the original data DorgThe loss exists, but the data decompression method greatly saves the calculation time and calculation resources of the FPGA decompressed data and accelerates the processing speed of the FPGA decompressed data. When the loss condition of the decompressed data relative to the original data is within the acceptable range of the user (for example, the distortion condition of the decompressed video signal and the decompressed audio signal is not obvious and can be accepted by the user), the data decompression method provided by the embodiment of the application can be well applied to the field of decompression processing (such as video, audio and the like) for the data in the FPGA, and has the advantages of obtaining the decompressed data meeting the user requirements and ensuring high processing speed and efficiency.
It should be noted that the data decompression method applied to the FPGA provided in the embodiment of the present application may be used for any data type that allows a certain distortion of a decompression result with respect to original data, for example, a video signal, an audio signal, and the like, and this is not limited in this application.
Having described the basic principles of the present application, various non-limiting embodiments of the present application are described in detail below.
In some embodiments, data D is compressedcmpIs the original data DorgAnd the data obtained by multiplication with the compression coefficient gain shifted to the right by s bits and addition and/or subtraction. For example, the compression formula used for compressing the image by means of piecewise linearization is: dcmp=(Dorg-xi)×(gi×2-s)+yiWhere i is the original data D in the image compression processorgThe number of each segment obtained by the segmentation processing,i=1,2,3....,xiIs the minimum value of each piece of original data, yiIs xiCorresponding compressed data, giIs the compression factor used for the compression process of each piece of original data. In such embodiments, since the compression process also adopts addition, subtraction, etc., step S108 will compress the data DcmpMultiplication is carried out with the third data D3 to obtain decompressed data Dun-cmpThe method comprises the following steps: will compress data DcmpAfter multiplication with the third data D3, the inverse operation of the above addition and/or subtraction is performed to obtain decompressed data Dun-cmp
In some embodiments, raw data DorgIs a pixel value of an image, for example, a video signal to be transmitted is a still image signal, and raw data subjected to compression processing is a pixel value of an image (i.e., a gradation value of each pixel).
In some embodiments, raw data DorgIs the pixel value of a High Dynamic Range Imaging (HDR) image. In the HDR image, the bit width of the pixel value is large, for example, 24 bits, and the required transmission bandwidth is high, in order to implement transmission under the limited bandwidth, each pixel value is compressed from 24 bits to 12 bits and then transmitted, and after receiving the data, the FPGA restores the 12 bits of data back to 24 bits through decompression processing.
In the data decompression method applied to the FPGA, the fixed value n is a preset numerical value, the size of the fixed value n determines the data amount stored in the lookup table, and the smaller the value of n is, the less resources of the FPGA are occupied, but the larger the error caused by calculation is, that is, the more serious the distortion of the decompressed data relative to the original data is. In specific application, the size of the fixed value n can be determined by comprehensively considering factors such as the demand on memory resources, the demand on data distortion and the like.
