RM L-Filters for Real-Time Imaging

In this paper we present the capability and realtime processing features of the RM L-filter for the removal of impulsive and multiplicative noise in realtime image processing applications. The proposed filter uses the robust RM-estimator in the filtering scheme of L-filter. The real-time implementation of proposed algorithm was realized on the DSP TMS320C6701. Extensive simulation results have demonstrated that the proposed filter consistently outperforms other filters by balancing the tradeoff between noise suppression and detail preservation
