Image_DeNoising Filter


Images captured from image sensors are affected by noise. Impulse noise is the most common type ofnoise, also called salt-and-pepper noise. . It is caused by malfunctioning pixels in camera sensors, faulty memory locations in the hardware, or errors in data transmission. Image denoising plays a vital role in digital image processing. Many schemes are available for removing noise from images. A good denoising scheme retrieves a clearer image even if the image is highly affected by noise.


Features and Benefits


  • Video Data Handling :
    • Uses four one-line buffers to store one horizontal video line each.
    • The incoming data stream fills these buffers sequentially.
  • Filtering Process :
    • The core filter is implemented on a 3x3 matrix..
    • A 3x3 window for median calculation is formed using three video lines.
    • Three pixels from each of the three video lines are read into shift registers to form a 3x3 2D array.
    • This array serves as the input for the unsharp masking kernel.
  • Color Channel Operations :
    • Median filtering is applied exclusively to the Y (luminance) channel..
    • The Cb and Cr (chrominance) components are passed through delay registers to ensure they are synchronized with the Y channel.
