H.263 압축 방식은 실현하는데 여러 가지 문제가 있지만 그 중에서 그 대표적인 것은 인코딩 과정에서의 압축 시간이 오래 걸린다는 것이고 다른 한 가지는 과도한 압축률에 의한 복원된 이미지 화질 저하이다. 이 논문에서는 H.263에서의 압축 속도 향상과 복원 이미지의 화질 이미지의 화질 보상에 대한 두 가지 새로운 방법을 제안하였다. 압축 속도를 향상시키기 위해서 움직임 벡터를 찾는 알고리즘을 개선하여 새로운 4단계 탐색 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 또한 화질을 보상하기 위해 디코더에서 블록 아티팩을 제거하고 복원 이미지를 선명하게 하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 여기서 화질 보상은 원본 이미지와 동일하게 만드는 것이 아니라 인간이 더 좋은 영상으로 인식하도록 하는 걸 목적으로 한다. 우리가 제한한 알고리즘에 의해서 압축 속도는 초당 2.5에서 17 프레임으로 증가하였고 블록 아티팩을 제거하고 명암 대비를 높임으로써 보기 좋은 영상을 제공하였다.

This paper describes two different S/W-based video codec systems. One is a frame-based video codec with fixed structure based on ITU H.263 standard and the other an object-based video codec with flexible architecture based on ISO MPEG-4 standard currently under specification and planned to be finalized in 1998. These codes are an experimental implementations for examining the feasibility of real-time and/or flexible S/W-based video codecs operating in intra and/or internetworking environments.

Tn this paper we described the process and the results of an implementation of Internet terminal using G.729.1 wideband speech codec for next generation network. For this purpose firstly we chose a high performance RISC application processor having DSP features for speech codec processing and enhanced Multimedia Accelerator(eMMA) function for video codec. In the implementation of this terminal, we used G.729.1 codec recently standardized in ITU-T which is a new scalable speech and audio codec that extends 0.729 speech coding standard. To adopt G.729.1 codec to this terminal we transformed most of the fixed point C codes which require more complexity into assembly codes so as to minimize processing time in the processor. As a result of this work we reduced the execution time of the original C codes about 80% and operated in real time on the terminal. For video we used H.263/MPEG-4 codec which is supported by the eMMA with hardware in the processor. In the SIP call processing test connected to real network we obtained under looms end-to-end delay and 3.8 MOS value measured with PESQ instrument. Besides this terminal operated well with commercial terminals.

A monitoring system for the security is increasingly demanded in line with the issue of the infringement of privacy. This paper has conducted the study on the monitoring technique via the Internet using PC or PDA. This is a monitoring system for web-camera based home server, which transmits the images and sound data captured by mike-embedded USB camera, though multiplexer of H.263 and internet. It integrates the operating processors of each device into a unified drive module and provides it the operator to facilitate the system operation and maintenance.

This paper presents different issues of the real-time compression algorithms without compromising the video quality in the distributed environment. The theme of this research is to manage the critical processing stages (speed, information lost, redundancy, distortion) having better encoded ratio, without the fluctuation of quantization scale by using IP configuration. In this paper, different techniques such as distortion measure with searching method cover the block phenomenon with motion estimation process while passing technique and floating measurement is configured by discrete cosine transform (DCT) to reduce computational complexity which is implemented in this video codec. While delay of bits in encoded buffer side especially in real-time state is being controlled to produce the video with high quality and maintenance a low buffering delay. Our results show the performance accuracy gain with better achievement in all the above processes in an encouraging mode.

In this paper, we present a design of mpeg-4 video codec chip to reduce the power consumption using frame level clock gating and motion estimation skip scheme. It performs 30 grames/s of codec (encoding and decoding) mode with quarter-common intermediate format(QCIF) at 27MHz. A novel low-power techniques were implemented in architectural level, which is 35% of the power dissipation for a conventional CMOS design. This chip performs MPEG-4 Simple Profile Level 2(Simple@L2) and H.263 base mode. Its contains 388,885 gates, 662k bits memory, and the chip size was 9.7 mm x 9.7 mm which was fabricated using 0.35 micron 3-layers metal CMOS technology.

In this paper, we describe implementation of personal media gateway (PMG) for applications over BcN networks. PMG is a TV based set-top terminal, which enables transmission of Full D1 high quality video and audio at the speed of maximum 2Mbps. It supports SIP protocol and QoS for the BcN networks. The hardware of the PMG consists of host module, audio/video codec processing module, DTMF module, and remote control I/O module. H.263 and MPEG4 software are implemented in DSP as codec for hi-directional communication and streaming, respectively. G.711 and Ogg-Vorbis are implemented as audio codec. We examined the quality of video using the Video Quality Test Equpment, which was developed by KT Convergence Lab. The experimental results show the video quality of MOS 4.1 and audio quality of MOS 4.3. We expect that PMG will be prospective business models, and create new customer value.

This paper proposes an adaptive error concealment technique for compressed video. Since redundancy is extracted out during compression process, compressed video is vulnerable to errors which occur during transmission of video over error prone networks such as wireless channels and Internet. Error concealment is a process of reconstructing video out of damaged video bit stream. We proved that scalable encoding is very useful for error concealment. Analysis of experiments shows that some part of image is better concealed by using base layer information and other part of image is better concealed by using previous frame information. We developed a technique which enables to decide which methodology is more effective, adaptively, based on motion vectors and regional spatial activity. We used H.263v2 for scalable encoding, but, our approach could be applied to all DCT based video codec.

본 논문에서는 소프트웨어 기반의 두가지 다른 코덱 시스템을 연구한다. 하나는 ITU H.263에 기반한 고정된 구조를 갖는 프레임 단위의 비디오 코덱이고, 다른 하나는 현재 진행중이고 1998년에 완성될 ISO MPEG-4 표준안에 기초하여 재배열이 가능한 유연한 구조를 갖는 오브젝트 단위의 비디오 코덱이다. 이러한 비디오 코덱들의 인트라, 인터넷 환경에서 소프트웨어에 기반한 실시간 및 유연한 구조의 구현 가능성을 알아보기 위하여 이들의 실험적인 구현을 시도한다.
