Real-time video compression applications such as Digital Video Camera (DVC), Television Studio Broadcast, and Surveillance video utilize the H.264/AVC video encoder in intra-only encoding mode. The H.264/AVC standard supports multiple intra-prediction modes to reduce spatial redundancy in the video frame. The intra-prediction process for a current pixels block requires the reconstructed pixels from...
Fractional motion estimation (FME) is widely used in video compression standards. In H.264/AVC, the precision of motion vector is down to quarter pixels to improve the coding efficiency. However, FME occupies over 45% of the computation complexity in an H.264 encoder and this high complexity limits the processing capability. In this paper, a single-iteration full search FME is proposed. By the algorithm...
In this paper, we contribute a configurable SAD tree architecture based on adaptive subsampling scheme. Firstly, by further exploiting the spatial feature, the integer motion estimation process is greatly sped up. Secondly, the conventional partial sum of absolute difference (SAD) based pipeline structure is optimized into configurable SAD oriented way, which enhances the performance and solve the...
This article provides results of subjective and objective measurements of video quality in HDTV systems. Picture quality in a compressed system can change dynamically based on a combination of data rate, picture complexity, and the encoding algorithm employed. Current HDTV formats, 720p/50, 1080i/25, 1080p/50 compressed with H.264/AVC codec were examined and compared. The original (uncompressed) and...
