In this paper, A new 2-D DCT algorithm is proposed to reduce the computational amount of transform operation using the distribution of the motion compensated error signal and the bit allocation table. In the this algorithm, 2-D Walsh-Hadamard transform is directly computed and then multiplied by a constant matrix. Multiplications are concentrated on the final stage in thie algorithm, thus the computational amount is reduced in proportion to the number of transform coefficients that are excluded from quatization. The computational amount in computing only the DCT coefficients allocated to the bit allocation table is calculated. As the result, the number of multiplications is less thn the algorithm known to have the fewest number of computations when less than 0.6 bits per pixel are allocated to tranform coding for the motion compensated error image in the case of the proposed algorithm. Thus, it shows that the proposed algorithm is valid in reducing the computational loads of transform coding.

Since a codebook-based CELP coder models its excitation signal according to one of several bit rates pre-assigned to codebooks and synthesizes speech signal using codebooks, it can not support encoding of speech signal at an arbitrary bit rate in one encoder. The proposed variable bit rate speech coder encodes the excitation signal based on the bit rate assigned to a present frame of speech using one-dimensional SPIHT and wavelet transform. Also it does't need to model excitation signal (or codebook) to some types as CELP coder, and can encode excitation signal at various bit rates without exact pitch information according to user requirement. As a result, since the coder doesn't have a codebook structure, it has relatively low coder complexity and provides equal or better speech quality compared to G.729 and G.723.1 coder.

지금까지의 비트 율 조절에 대한 연구는 일정한 프레임 율을 갖는다는 가정 하에서 매크로 블록 단에서의 연구가 대부분이었다. 그러나 저 전송률 환경에서는 사용 할 수 있는 bit 수가 적기 때문에 오히려 이러한 가정이 성능을 저하시킬 수 있다. 우리는 이 논문에서 저 전송률 환경에서 문제가 되는 motion jerkiness 와 flickering effort 를 개선시키고 프레임 skip 을 방지하는 비트율 조절 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 허용하는 지연 시간 안에서 부호화단에 부가적인 계산량을 거치 부가하지 않기 때문에 실시간 처리에 적합하다. 실험 결과는 우리의 기법이 저 전송률 환경에 적함함을 보여준다.

In this paper, MTSVQ(Multirate Tree-Structured Vector Quantization) is introduced for subband image coding. Original images are decomposed into a number of subband components, and multiresolution codebook is designed by MTSVQ algorithm. Optimal bit allocation among the subband components becomes the problem selecting the particular pruned subtree of MTSVQ which has the desired rate and distortion.

본 논문에서는 직교 주파수 분할 다중화 전송방식(OFDM:Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)에서 비트 오류율(BER)과 시스템에서 사용할 수 있는 총 송신 파워가 제한된 상태에서 데이터 전송률을 최대화 시키는 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 기법은 미리 계산된 비트수별 신호대잡음비 임계값(threshold)과 부반송파의 신호대잡음비를 비교한 후 부반송파별 송신 파워를 최적화 시켜 비트를 할당한다. 이 기법은 송신 파워 및 비트를 할당하는 최적의 기법이라고 알려진 Hughes­Hartogs 기법과 거의 동일한 데이터 전송률을 가질 수 있으면서, 부반송파의 송신 파워 및 비트수를 할당하기 위해 필요한 반복작업을 줄일 수 있다.

In video coding, it is important to improve the average picture quality as well as to maintain cosistent picture quality between consecutive pictures. In this paper, we propose a distortion-rate estimation method for MPEG-2 video and a forward rate control method, using the proposed estimation result, to be able to obtain the improved and consistent picture quality of CBR (Constant Bit Rate) encoded MPEG-2 video. The proposed distortion-rate estimation enable us to predict the distortion and the bits generated from an encoded picture at a given quantization step size and vice versa. The most attactive features of proposed distortion-rate estimation are its accuracy and low computational complexity enough to be applied to the practical video coding. In addition, the proposed rate control first determined a quantization parameter per frame by following procedure: distortion-rate estimation, target bit allocation, distortion constraint and VBV(Video Buffer Verification) constraint. And then this quantization parameter is applied to the encoding so that improved and consisten picture quality can be obtained. Furthermore the proposed rate control method can solve the error propagation problem caused by scene change or anchor picture degradation by using the B-picture skipping and the guarantee of the minimum bit allocation for the anchor picture. Experimental results, comparing the proposed forward rate control method with TM5 method, show that the proposed method makes more improed and consistent picture quality than TM5.
