초록

움직임 보상 외삽 기법은 움직임 보상 보간 기법에 비해서 과거의 프레임만 사용하기 때문에 성능은 다소 떨어지지만, 전송 중에 손상된 프레임의 복원 및 프레임율 증가 뿐 아니라 분산 동영상 부호화 시스템의 부가 정보 생성에도 활용될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 움직임 보상 외삽 기법의 성능을 평가하고 순방향과 역방향 움직임 추정을 함께 이용한 효율적인 움직임 보상 외삽 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 순방향과 역방향 움직임 추정을 통해 두 개의 프레임을 생성하여 두 프레임의 화소값의 평균을 현재 프레임으로 한다. 모의 실험 결과 제안하는 기법이 기존의 기법에 비해서 블록 현상이 감소하고 우수한 PSNR 성능을 보임을 확인하였다.

Motion compensated extrapolation (MCE) techniques show inferior performance compared to motion compensated interpolation techniques, since only past frames are used in MCE. MCE techniques are used for the reconstruction of corrupted frames, the up-conversion of frame rates and the generation of side information in the distributed video coding system. In this paper, the performance of various MCE techniques are evaluated and an efficient MCE technique using the forward and backward motion estimation is proposed. In the proposed technique, the present frame is extrapolated by averaging two frames which are generated by forward and backward motion estimation respectively. It is shown that the proposed method produces better PSNR results and less blocking phenomena than conventional methods.
