디지털 비디오 압축기술은 대용량의 영상을 화질 손실을 최소화하면서 압축률을 높이는 데에 그 목적이 있다. 모바일 디바이스에서 인코딩/디코딩시에는 프로세싱 오버헤드를 최소화 시켜야 할 필요성이 있다. 또한 특정 동영상을 압축할 시 불필요한 영상을 줄여 압축률을 높이고 타겟 오브젝트에 집중할 수 있도록 하기 위해서 Hierarchical Temporal Memory 를 사용해 오브젝트를 인식하고 타겟 오브젝트만 선택 압축하는 기술을 제안하고자 한다.

모바일 환경 상에서 영상통화는 제한된 대역폭 및 손떨림 현상 등의 문제로 인하여 저품질의 서비스가 제공되고 있다. 기존의 영상통화 환경에서 향상된 품질의 영상통화 서비스를 제공하기 위하여 중요 객체와 비중요 객체를 구분하여 분리하며, 중요 객체에 대해서는 고화질을 갖도록 하는 비디오 압축 방법을 제안한다. 매 프레임 마다 중요 객체와 비중요 객체를 분리하며, 분리된 객체는 다른 비트율과 화질을 갖도록 각 객체에 적합한 변환 커널을 적용하여 부호화 절차를 달리한다. 중요 객체는 저압축, 고화질을 가지도록 부호화하며, 비중요 객체에 대해서는 고압축, 저화질을 가지도록 부호화함으로써 제한된 대역폭 내에서 비트율을 유지하도록 한다.

Acceptance of the international standards for video compression, such as H.261, MPEG-1 and MPEG-2, along with the developments in video codec hardware, has created an explosion of application. Among these, the long time quest for long-distance digital video transmission causes an increasing interest in transporting compressed video over networks which are nontraditional for this purpose, including asynchronous transfer mode networks, the Internet, and cellular and wireless channels. Transmission of compression video over packet network is improved for error resilience. And layered video coding techniques improves error resilience. We present a efficient method of scalable video coding for low bandwidth.

In this paper, we propose the VLSI design of Multi-Format Video Decoder (MFD) to support video codec standards such as MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264 and VC-1. The target of the proposed MFD is the Full HD (High Definition) video processing needed for the high-end D-TV SoC (System-on-Chip). The size of the design is reduced by sharing the common large-size resources such as the RISC processor and the on-chip memory among the different codecs. In addition, a detachable architecture is introduced in order to easily add or remove the codecs. The detachable architecture preserves the stability of the previously designed and verified codecs. The size of the design is about 2.4 M gates and the operating clock frequency is 225MHz in the Samsung 65nm process. The proposed MFD supports more than Full-HD (1080p@30fps) video decoding, and the largest number of video codec standards known so far.

Bluetooth is a popular wireless data transmission method with low power consumption, but it has low data transmission rate. Thus, although many video stream players of a local or network file exist, there have been few players of video stream transmitted via Bluetooth. MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 codec is one of video codecs available with best compression rates for a certain quality, so a H.264 encoder seems to be adequate for video stream to be transmitted via Bluetooth. In this paper, we present a DirectShow filter based player of video stream encoded by H.264 codec, which is transmitted via Bluetooth. Details on the design and implementation of this program are described. Experimental results are shown to demonstrate the validity of the implemented program using various video samples.

Layered video coding schemes allow the video information to be transmitted in multiple video bitstreams to achieve scalability. they are attractive in theory for two reasons. First, they naturally allow for heterogeneity in networks and receivers in terms of client processing capability and network bandwidth. Second, they correspond to optimal utilization of available bandwidth when several video qualify levels are desired. In this paper we propose a scalable video codec architectures with motion estimation, which is suitable for real-time audio and video communication over packet networks. The coding algorithm is compatible with ITU-T recommendation H.263+ and includes various techniques to reduce complexity. Fast motion estimation is Performed at the H.263-compatible base layer and used at higher layers, and perceptual macroblock skipping is performed at all layers before motion estimation. Error propagation from packet loss is avoided by Periodically rebuilding a valid Predictor in Intra mode at each layer.

Our present ability to work with video has not been confined to wired communication environment. This paper describes the new technological trend of wireless video communication. In wireless video communication, unlike wired network, several techniques are needed. At first, error robust video coding is essential. Due to characteristics of wireless channel, the system is exposed to more error prone environment. In addition, encoded video bit streams are vulnerable to the error because of the entropy coding. Recently many frameworks are developed to cope with this problem. We just explore the numerous robust video coding approaches with the viewing of error control. And more we discuss other on going research topics in this wireless video communication fields like low-power assumption design, trans-codec technique, and rate control schemes in brief.

Video files of video devices such as black box and CCTV may be damaged due to repetitive file read / write and physical environment factors. Even though there are available parts of video information, it may happen that playback can't be performed due to damage of some information. To playback the remaining video information normally, it is necessary to recover damaged areas of the files. For this, it is necessary to accurately check the damage range of the files. In this paper, we propose the design and implementation of a tool which detects damaged areas of a video file and recovers the usable area of the file to playback. The proposed tool can analyze and recover without additional information by analyzing common information of video container format and can check detailed damaged ranges with chunks. It is possible to perform recovery just only with the target file and reference file without any other information such as codec specification.

The era of realistic broadcast with high fidelity has come after the wide-spread distribution of UHD display and the transmission of UHD experimental broadcast in CATV. However, UHD broadcast now has constraint because it requires much amount of bandwidth and data in broadcasting transmission and production system. Not only HEVC(High Efficiency Video Codec) which has more than two times higher compression rate but also cloud-based editing system would be the key to solve the problems above. Also, fast scene change detection of videos is needed to index and search UHD videos smoothly. In this paper, therefore, a method is proposed to index and search the scene change information of large volume UHD videos compressed with high-efficiency codec. Application usages of fast detection of scene change information in various UHD video environments are considered by using this algorithm.

This paper presents a high-performance architecture of integer-pel motion estimation circuit for H.264 video CODEC. Full search algorithm guarantees the best results by examining all candidate blocks. However, the full search algorithm requires a huge amount of computation and data. Many fast search algorithms have been proposed to reduce the computational efforts. The disadvantage of these algorithms is that data access from or to memory is very irregular and data reuse is difficult. In this paper, we propose an efficient integer-pixel motion estimation algorithm and the circuit architecture to improve the processing speed and reduce the external memory bandwidth. The proposed circuit supports seven kinds of variable block sizes and generates 41 motion vectors. We described the proposed high-performance motion estimation circuit at R1L and verified its operation on FPGA board. The circuit synthesized by using l30nm CMOS standard cell library processes 139.8 1080HD ($1,920{\times}1,088$) image frames per second and supports up to H.264 level 5.1.
