Abstract In this paper, we proposed a wavelet image coder based on the portable embedded microprocessor. The proposed coder stores the bit level information of the wavelet coefficient in the 2D significance array. Using this information, the coder make the significance check for coefficient and bit level scanning at the same pass. The proposed method has the advantage that we can reduce the scan iteratively and the memory usage for the coding process. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms popular image coders such as JPEG, EZW and SPIHT in based on the portable embedded system environment.
