The document describes a proposed low-cost high-throughput multistandard transform core that can support various video encoding standards like MPEG, H.264, and VC-1. It uses a technique called Common Sharing Distributed Arithmetic that combines factor sharing and distributed arithmetic to reduce the number of adders needed, achieving a 44.5% reduction. This allows the core to have eight parallel processing paths and a throughput of 1.28 G-pels/s while only requiring 30k gate counts, supporting very high resolution digital cinema formats in a low-cost and high-throughput manner.
