Performance Evaluation of Median Filter Hardware Chip for Image and Signal Processing

The median filter is a valuable image processing tool that can be used in many applications to advance picture quality, and inferior noise, and acquire data ready for more analysis. The median filter, a non-linear image processing technique, has excessive application in many diverse fields because of its capacity to remove noise while preserving edges. The filter is significant for both simple and complex imageprocessing occupations since it is together easy to comprehend and fast to use. An active method to attain real-time performance is to devise a median filter on a FieldProgrammable Gate Array (FPGA) for image signal processing and machine vision applications. FPGAs are well-suited for photo filtering due to their capability to achieve parallel processing, which is one of their prominent advantages. The research article meets with the design and simulation of the average filter in HDL and synthesis on the FPGA for assessing the performance indices.
