N2 - This paper presents high sample rate systolic architectures for computing one-dimensional median filters. Two configurations are studied: one in which the samples are stored in order of arrival and one in which the samples are stored in sorted order. The architecture for both the cases consists of a linear systolic array of processors. The computations in each processor are pipelined in order to achieve high sample rates. For instance, the sample rate is increased by a factor of 2 (compared to existing architectures) by performing comparisons of elements in window Wi and rank updates (in the first configuration) or sorting (in the second configuration) of elements in window Wi-1 simultaneously.
