An absolutely revised and considerably up to date 2d version of the best-selling name: 'An creation to straightforward Codecs', (IEE 1999, top e-book of the 12 months 2000 by way of IEE) this ebook discusses the expansion of electronic tv expertise and the revolution in photograph and video compression (such as JPEG2000, broadcast television, video phone), highlighting the necessity for standardisation in processing static and relocating photos and their trade among laptop systems.ITU and ISO/IEC criteria at the moment are broadly permitted within the picture/video coding field.This e-book offers an authoritative rationalization of photograph and video coding algorithms, operating from uncomplicated ideas via to the complicated video-compression structures now being constructed. one in all its major ambitions is to explain the explanations in the back of the creation of a typical codec for a particular program and its selected parameter. This publication will allow readers to understand the basics had to layout a video codec for any given program and may turn out to be a beneficial source for engineers operating during this field.Also available:Telecommunication Networks, second version - ISBN 9780852968840Telecommunications site visitors, price lists and prices - ISBN 9780863411458

Sample text

Until any of these quality metrics become standards, it is customary to use the simplest form of objective measurement, which is the ratio of the peak-to-peak Video basics 21 signal to the root mean squared processing noise. This is referred to as peak-to-peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and defined as 2 3 6 PSNR ¼ 10log10 4 1 XX N i 255 2 ðY ref ði; jÞ À Y prc ði; jÞÞ2 7 5 ð2:7Þ j where Yref (i, j) and Yprc(i, j) are the pixel values of the reference and processed images, respectively, and N is the total number of pixels in the image.

Considering that in CCIR-601 the chrominance bandwidth is half of the luminance, then the number of each chrominance pixel per line is half of the luminance pixels, but their frame rates and the number of lines per frame are equal. This is normally referred to as 4:2:2 image format. 3 shows the luminance and chrominance components for the 4:2:2 image format. 3 Sampling pattern for 4:2:2 (CCIR-601) and 4:2:0 SIF alternate luminance sample, but the chrominance components are present in every line.

For example, in video conferencing or video telephony, small image sizes with lower resolutions require much less bandwidth than the studio or broadcast video, and at the same time the resultant image quality is quite acceptable for the application. On the other hand, for HDTV, larger image sizes with improved luminance and chrominance resolutions are preferred. 1 SIF images In most cases, the video sources to be coded by standard video codecs are produced by CCIR-601 digitised video signals direct from the camera.
