H.264/AVC 부호화 표준은 영상의 특성을 반영하기 위해 $16{\times}16$부터 $4{\times}4$ 크기의 가변적인 블록을 이용하여 부호화 효율을 높인다. 하지만 이로 인해 부호기의 복잡도가 증가된다. 부호기 복잡도를 증가시키는 여러 요인 중, H.264/AVC의 모드 결정은 부호기의 복잡도를 증가시키는 주요인이다. 본 논문에서는 IPPP구조에서 비트율 왜곡값을 이용하여 고속으로 매크로블록의 모드를 결정하는 방법을 제안한다. 인트라 화면에서의 인트라 $4{\times}4$, 인트라 $16{\times}16$의 비트율 왜곡 평균값으로 영상에 적응적인 최대 임계값과 최소 임계값을 결정한다. 다음, $16{\times}16$, $16{\times}8$, $8{\times}16$ 인터 모드의 비트율 왜곡값이 최대 임계값과 최소 임계값으로 분할한 범위 중 어느 곳에 해당하는지를 살펴보고, 이에 따라 인트라 모드 결정 단계를 선택적으로 결정한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 기존의 H.264/AVC에 비해 부호화 효율의 큰 감소 없이 평균 27.42%의 부호화 시간을 감소시켰다.

To reduce the nonlinear distortion of high power amplifier(HPA) in down link OFCDM system to employ time domain spreading, we apply technology which transmits MPSK(Multilevel-PSK) signal after clipping on multilevel input signal of IFFT subcarrier. In case that the nonlinear distortion of HPA is considered in AWGN channel, performacne of clipping OFCDM system using extended m sequence is over 2.2㏈ better than that of OFCDM system using extended m sequence when the number of user is 8 and 16. In case that the nonlinear distortion of HPA is considered in quasi-static channel, performacne of clipping OFCDM system using extended m code is over 2㏈ better than that of OFCDM system using extended m sequence when the number of user is 8 and 16.

H.264/AVC는 율-왜곡 계산에 기반한 화면 내 예측과 화면 간 예측을 통하여 높은 압축효율을 나타낸다. 그러나 모든 예측 모드의 율-왜곡 값을 계산하여 하나의 최적의 모드를 구하는 기존의 방법은 높은 계산량을 가지며 부호화에 걸리는 시간을 현저히 증가시킨다. 이러한 높은 계산량을 갖는 모든 예측모드의 율-왜곡 계산을 보완하기 위하여, 본 논문에서는 매크로블록의 움직임 특성 을 고려한 고속 부호화 모드 결정 방법을 제안한다. 각각의 매크로블록을 부호화하기 위해 미리 계산되는 SKIP모드에 대한 율-왜곡 값을 바탕으로 두 가지 문턱 값을 사용하여 움직임의 특성을 판단한다. 움직임의 특성에 따라 매크로블록은 3가지 분류로 나뉘게 되며, 각 분류에 따라 경쟁 모드를 적응적으로 선별하여 최적의 모드를 선택한다. 이러한 움직임 특성을 고려한 선택적 부호화 모드 결정을 통하여 부호화 효율의 큰 손실 없이 계산량을 감소시킴으로서 H.264/AVC의 고속 부호화가 가능한 x.264 대비 MMX를 사용하였을 때 16%, MMX를 사용하지 않았을 때 22%의 속도향상을 가져왔다.

H.264/AVC is the international video coding standard which has significant improvements of coding efficiency. ITU-T(International Telecommunication Union-Telecommunication standardization sector) and MPEG(Moving Picture Experts Group) adopts various complex coding tool such as variable block size motion, multiple reference frames, quarter-pel motion estimation/compensation (ME/MC) and rate-distortion(RD) optimization, etc. H.264 reference model employs complex mode decision technique based on RD optimization which requires high computational complexity. In this paper, we propose an efficient coding mode decision based on the cost distribution of RD in the macroblock coding mode sequence. Simulation results show that the proposed method reduces encoding time by 34% on average and save the number of computing RD cost by 82%.

As recording densities increase in digital magnetic recording channels, the performances of digital detection techniques such as PRML and DFE degrade significantly due to nonlinear distortion in recording channels. The primary impediments for hgih-density recording are generally classified as nonlinear transition shift, which can be reduced substantially by the precompensation technique, and partial erasure which usually requires sophisticated nonlinear equalization techniques. In order to acheieve the highest density recording, accurate estimation of the parameters associated with these two noninear distortions is crucial. In this paper, a new estimation technique to distinguish these two different nonlinear effect using a proposed adaptive algorithm in time domain is presented. The effectiveness of the proposed adaptive approach to identify uniquely the nonlinear parameter with bias is demonstrated by computer simulation.

Time-variant mobile radio fading channels distort amplitude, frequency and phase of a transmitted signal. On channels that have time-variant spectral nulls, the conventional equalizers which have low convergence speed and high sensitiveness to phase distortion yields very poor error rate performance. In this paper, the performance of a combined structure with the data-recycling algorithm and fractionally spaced equalizer (FSE) has been investigated on time-variant mobile radio fading channels through computer simulations and compared to other kinds of equalizers. The results show that the data-recycling FSE has excellent capabilities for tracking rapidly time-variant mobile channels and effective compensation for phase distortion.

Since DVC (Distributed Video Coding) and FRUC (Frame Rate Up Conversion) techniques need to have an efficient motion compensated frame interpolation algorithms. Conventional works of these applications have mainly focused on the performance improvement of overall system. But, in some applications, it is necessary to evaluate how well the MCI (Motion Compensated Interpolation) frame matches the original frame. For this aim, this paper deals with the modeling methods for evaluating the block-based matching cost. First, several matching criteria, which have already been dealt with the motion compensated frame interpolation, are introduced and then combined to make estimate models for the size of MSE (Mean Square Error) noise of the MCI frame to original one. Through computer simulations, it is shown that the block-based cost evaluation models are tested and can be effectively used for estimating the MSE noise.

Fractal image compression can reduce the size of image data by the contractive mapping that is affine transformation to find the block(called as range block) which is the most similar to the original image. Even though fractal image compression is regarded as an efficient way to reduce the data size, it has high distortion rate and requires long encoding time. In this paper, we presented a hybrid fractal image compression system with the modified SOFM Vector Quantizer which uses improved competitive learning method. The simulation results showed that the VQ hybrid fractal using improved competitive loaming SOFM has better distortion rate than the VQ hybrid fractal using normal SOFM.

In this paper, a new approach to estimate nonmlinear distortions (second-harmonic, second-intermodulation, third-harmonic, and third-intermodulation) in digital communication systems is proposed. In contrast to the relatively common sine-wave input approach which requires repetition of the same experiments by changing frequencies of oscillators and filters over the band of frequencies of interest, the proposed approach uses digital random input (transmitted signal in digital communication system) to adaptively estimate parameters of a nonlinear channel in time-domain. Nonlinear distortion of the channel is estimated on line by transforming the estimated parameters into frequency-domain. Comparison between the classical two-tone input approach and the proposed approach is made through computer simulation.

A realization for image distortion correction processing system with DSP processor is presented in this paper. The image distortion correcting algorithm is realized by DSP processor for focusing on more real time processing than image quality. The lens and camera distortion coefficients are processed by the Lookup Tables and the correcting algorithm is applied to reverse mapping method for geometrical transform. The system experimentation results in the processing time about 31.3 msec $720{\times}480$ wide range image, and the image is stable and spontaneous to be about 8.3% average PSNR variation with changing a wide angle.
