dsp.IDCT

(To be removed) Inverse discrete cosine transform (IDCT)

The dsp.IDCT System object™ will be removed in a future release. Use idct instead. For more information, see Compatibility Considerations.

Description

The IDCT object computes the inverse discrete cosine transform (IDCT) of an input.

To compute the IDCT of an input:

  1. Define and set up your IDCT object. See Construction.

  2. Call step to compute the IDCT of an input according to the properties of dsp.IDCT. The behavior of step is specific to each object in the toolbox.

Note

Starting in R2016b, instead of using the step method to perform the operation defined by the System object, you can call the object with arguments, as if it were a function. For example, y = step(obj,x) and y = obj(x) perform equivalent operations.

Construction

idct = dsp.IDCT returns a inverse discrete cosine transform (IDCT) object, idct. This object computes the IDCT of a real or complex input signal using the Table lookup method.

idct = dsp.IDCT('PropertyName',PropertyValue,...) returns an inverse discrete cosine transform (IDCT) object, idct, with each property set to the specified value.

Properties

SineComputation

Method to compute sines and cosines

Specify how the IDCT object computes the trigonometric function values as Trigonometric function or Table lookup. You must set this property to Table lookup for fixed-point inputs. The default is Table lookup.

Examples

Analyze the Energy Content in a Sequence

Note: This example runs only in R2016b or later. If you are using an earlier release, replace each call to the function with the equivalent step syntax. For example, myObject(x) becomes step(myObject,x).

Use DCT to analyze the energy content in a sequence:

x = (1:128).' + 50*cos((1:128).'*2*pi/40);
dct = dsp.DCT;
X = dct(x);

Set the DCT coefficients which represent less than 0.1% of the total energy to 0 and reconstruct the sequence using IDCT.

[XX, ind] = sort(abs(X),1,'descend');
ii = 1;
while (norm([XX(1:ii);zeros(128-ii,1)]) <= 0.999*norm(XX))
    ii = ii+1;
end
disp(['Number of DCT coefficients that represent 99.9%',...
    'of the total energy in the sequence: ',num2str(ii)]);
Number of DCT coefficients that represent 99.9%of the total energy in the sequence: 10
XXt = zeros(128,1);
XXt(ind(1:ii)) = X(ind(1:ii));
idct = dsp.IDCT;
xt = idct(XXt);
plot(1:128,[x xt]);
legend('Original signal','Reconstructed signal',...
    'location','best');

Algorithms

This object implements the algorithm, inputs, and outputs described on the IDCT block reference page. The object properties correspond to the block parameters.
