Abstract
In this paper a new radix-3 fast algorithm for the length -3/sup m/ discrete cosine transform (DCT) is proposed, to further extend the applicability of the fast cosine transform (FCT) algorithm. First, the basic 3-point DCT is considered. Then, the formulae of the new radix-3 FCT algorithm are derived. Next, a block diagram of the radix-3 FCT algorithm is shown and the signal flowgraph for length-3/sup 2/ FCT is given to illustrate the proposed algorithm. Finally, the computational complexity is analysed. The proposed algorithm requires less number of arithmetic operations and allows in-place computation. The simple and regular structure makes it easy to be implemented. One can compute effectively the length-2/sup 1/.3/sup m/ DCT using this length-3/sup m/ algorithm together with the existing length-2/sup 1/ algorithm by prime factor decomposition. The proposed new radix-3 FCT algorithm is expected to find wide practical applications. >
