摘要:
A motion picture coder for coding plural macro blocks of motion picture data based on a standardizing system is disclosed. The coder comprises first and second pipe-lined processors executing different coding processes respectively, both of which are separated from one another so as to accomplish a parallel operation thereof. The first processor executes a motion vector detection for a second macro block, an inter-frame addition for a first macro block and an inter-frame difference for the first macro block. The second processor executes a discrete cosine transform for the first macro block, a quantization for the first macro block, an inverse quantization for the first macro block, an inverse discrete cosine transform for the first macro block and a loop filtering for the second macro block. The motion vector detection and the discrete cosine transform are concurrently processed and the inter-frame addition and the loop filtering are concurrently processed, thereby the processing times for each macro block are shortened and thus a high speed processing is realized.

A quantization control circuit determines an optimum scaling factor for quantizing orthogonal transformation coefficient data that correspond to a predetermined time period of a digital video signal. A first scaling factor is determined from the orthogonal transformation coefficient data as a function of whether a bit rate determined by quantizing the orthogonal transformation coefficient data using an initial scaling factor is greater than a target bit rate. A corrected scaling factor is determined by calculating second scaling factors that are each derived from the first scaling factor. Error values are calculated from the second scaling factors using the orthogonal transformation coefficient data, and the second scaling factor that corresponds to the minimum error value is selected as the corrected scaling factor.

In digital video signals which differ in the number of pixels thereof, such as a standard video signal having a screen aspect ratio of 4:3 and a wide video signal having an aspect ratio of 16:9 the data quantity after encoding is equalized without increasing the compression ratio of the video signal having the larger number of pixels. An encoding apparatus performs intraframe encoding of the standard video signal so that the coded data quantity is constant in every frame, and interframe encoding of the wide video signal in each two frames so that the coded data quantity is constant in every two frames.

In the recording apparatus and reproducing apparatus employing variable length coding, a formatting which prevents propagation of error due to transmission route error is realized. The input quantized value is coded in variable length and recorded in a first memory. The variable length code words recorded in the first memory are read out and formatted, and recorded into a second memory. In reproduction, the quantized value is decoded in the reverse sequence. By executing variable length coding and formatting in a pipeline operation by using two memories, high speed input signals such as moving picture signals can be formatted. Components of the recording apparatus and reproducing apparatus can be shared, and the circuit scale may be effectively reduced.
摘要:
Encoded picture data or encoded difference data is decoded by an intraframe decoder. To an adder, zero data is given through a switching circuit at the time of the decoding of intraframe coded data, and when interframe coded data, i.e., difference data is decoded, a decoded value of a previous frame is supplied through the switching circuit. By the adder, the decoded value of the previous frame and the decoded difference value are added to allow the decoding of interframe coding.
摘要:
An improved technique for decoding wherein the number of coefficients to be included in each sub-block is selectable, and a code indicating the number of coefficients within each layer is inserted in the bitstream at the beginning of each encoded video sequence. This technique allows the original runs of zero coefficients in the highest resolution layer to remain intact by forming a sub-block for each scale from a selected number of coefficients along a continuous scan. These sub-blocks may be decoded in a standard fashion, with an inverse discrete cosine transform applied to square sub-blocks obtained by the appropriate zero padding of and/or discarding of excess coefficients from each of the scales. This technique further improves decoding efficiency by allowing an implicit end of block signal to separate blocks, making it unnecessary to decode an explicit end of block signal in most cases.

The quantization control circuit decrements the quantization step size by a predetermined quantity every frame period or increments the quantization step size by a predetermined quantity every block period when a parameter value related to the buffer content is not less than a preset value.

An information recording apparatus implements the orthogonal transformation for the input signal on a block-by-block basis, separates each variable-length coded word into a fixed part and separate part individually, records the fixed part into a record block which is established for each block of orthogonal component by starting from the beginning and ending at the prescribed position of the record block, and records coded words of the separate part into remaining portions of record blocks.
