Abstract

TMN5 used to test the performance of H.263 is a DCT-based H.263 which DCT is used as transform coding, but DWT is used instead of DCT and adaptive quantizer of being appropriate to DWT is designed in this paper while the structure of TMN5 is maintained. DWT-based H.263, which is proposed in this paper, is excellent in transplantation of the existing system and can improve frame rate by transmitting more Frame. Also, the average PSNR, objective quality of image, has been lost at degree of average 0.35㏈ in luminance signals, but has been improved over a average of 2㏈ in chrominance signals. Subjective quality of image has been improved as blocking effect, which has seriously occurred in DCT based H.263, is diminished. DWT-based H.263 can. therefore. advance video quality of image comparing with the existing ways.
