Design and implement of high resolution still image compression and storage system

Abstract

High resolution still image compression and storage plays a very important role in the application field of aero military reconnaissance, topography mapping and satellite remote sensing exploration. An embedded high resolution still image compression and storage system based on POWER PC, FPGA and ADV212 is presented in the paper in order to implement 4008×5366×12bit lossy and lossless compression of high resolution aero image. Image compression storage system structure and the software and hardware design method of the system are shown here. The design object is to save one image each two seconds and to send one image each eight seconds on the condition of 1.44Mbps transmission rate. The experimental results show that the system could implement expected real-time compression and storage of high resolution aero image.
