The Universal Variable Length Coding(UVLC) scheme in H.26L has nice features such as error resiliency and two-way decodability. However, it has lower coding efficiency than the conventional Huffman coding. To improve the coding efficiency of UVLC, we Propose to use a dynamic codeword mapping that changes association between symbols and codewords in order to utilize the statistical characteristics of symbols as much as possible but without losing any features of the UVLC. Both encoder and decoder use the same re-association table, and hence the encoder need not send additional overhead for the re-mapping relationship to the decoder. Simulation results show that without significant change of the current H.26L coding scheme, the proposed method additionally attains up to about 8% and about 5% bit reductions respectively in intra and inter frames over the current H.26L encoding method.

가변길이 부호는 많은 이미지 및 영상 표준에서 폭넓게 사용되는 기법이다. 특히 국제 표준인 JVT와 중국 A/V 표준인 AVS는 엔트로피 코딩을 수행하기 위해 Exp-Golomb 코드에 기반한 UVLC(Universal Variable Length Code)를 채용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 H.264/AVC의 엔트로피 코딩에서 사용되는 Exp-Golomb CODEC의 하드웨어 구현에 대해 연구하였다. 식의 간략화로 구현하기 어려운 log함수와 거듭제곱 연산을 하지 않으며, 첫 번째 1 검출기와 누산기 제어에 의한 배럴 쉬프터를 통하여 별도의 시간 지연 없이 부호화 및 복호화가 되도록 설계하였다. Xilinx ISE툴을 사용하여 합성하고, 보드 수준에서 PCI인터페이스를 사용하여 검증하였다. 본 논문에서 설계된 Exp-Glomb CODEC은 H.264/AVC 및 AVS와 같은 분야에서 응용이 가능할 것으로 예견된다.

LED(Light Emitting Diode) components have advantages of longer lifetime, lower power consumption and easy-to-control, compare to normal lamp and fluorescent light, according to the development of recent technologies. Thus, lots of illuminations which utilize LED components could be used. Recently, Visible Light Communication(VLC) which is a part of communication technologies, utilizing high speed response characteristic of LED components, started receiving public attention. In case of VLC, there is no need of frequency allocation due to no use of radio, but also no interference exists during data transmission, much different in ISM((Industrial Scientific Medical band). This is the reason why a lot of research results about VLC are becoming issued. In this paper, a survey of feasibility for using VLC utilizing an original LED illumination for underwater applications has been done and a primitive possibility of its application has been examined.
