PROJECT PROPOSAL FOR A RESEARCH PROJECT ON H 264 MPEG 4 PART 10 HIGH PROFILE NAME AMBICA VALLERU ID 1000023910 COURSE EE5359 1 A recently developed international video coding standard is H 264 MPEG 4 part 10 This new standard has significant improvement in coding efficiency and error robustness in comparison with previous standards such as MPEG 2 H 263 MPEG 4 part 2 This standard has four profiles which are as follows Baseline Profile Main Profile Extended Profile High Profile The main focus of this research paper is going to be on the High Profile of H 264 video coding standard The first section of the paper would give a brief history of the development of the H 264 MPEG 4 part 10 standard The next section would describe the video coding algorithm employed shown in figure 1 Each block in the encoder and decoder are looked at individually Video Input Bit stream Output Entropy Coding Transform Quantization Inverse Quantization Inverse Transform Intra Inter Mode Decision Motion Compensation Intra Prediction Deblocking Filter Picture Buffering Motion Estimation a Encoder Bit stream Input Entropy Decoding Inverse Quantization Inverse Transform Video Output Deblocking Filter Intra Inter Mode Selection Picture Buffering Intra Prediction Motion Compensation b Decoder Figure 1 1 2 The parts of high profile such as B slice weighted prediction and adaptive transform block size and quantization scaling matrices would be discussed in the following section After studying the technique thoroughly and evaluating the main parameters of H 264 the test data will be implemented using the JM 12 Joint Module software and the results listed The next part of the paper would deal with comparison of high profile with baseline profile Then there would be comparison between H 264 MPEG 4 part 10 and MPEG 2 The main areas of focus in those comparisons would be parameters such as compression ratio PSNR encoding time etc The last couple of sections in the paper would list the various applications of H 264 coding technique for all the profiles Also a couple of suggestions for future work are presented based on the conclusions that would be drawn by analyzing the standard Reference 1 Emerging H 264 AVC video coding standard J Visual Communication and Image Representation vol 17 pp 183 552 April 2006 2 A Puri H Chen and A Luthra Video Coding using the H 264 MPEG 4 AVC compression standard Signal processing Image communication vol 19 pp 793 849 Oct 2004 3 G J Sullivan P Topiwala and A Luthra The H 264 AVC advanced video coding standard Overview and introduction to the fidelity range extensions SPIE vol 5558 pp 53 74 Aug 2004 4 G J Sullivan The H 264 MPEG 4 AVC video coding standard and its deployment status SPIE VCIP 2005 vol 5960 pp 709 719 Beijing China July 2005 5 T Wiegand et al Overview of the H 264 AVC Video Coding Standard IEEE Trans CSVT Vol 13 pp 560 576 July 2003 6 Y W Huang et al Analysis fast algorithm and VLSI architecture design for H 264 AVC intra frame coding IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology vol 15 pp 378 401 March 2005 7 ISO IEC JTC1 SC29 WG11 Report of the Formal Verification Tests on AVC ISO IEC14496 10 ITU T Rec H 264 MPEG2003 N6231 Dec 2003 8 H 264 International Telecommunication Union Recommendation ITU T H 264 Advanced Video Coding for Generic Audiovisual Services ITU T 2003 9 D Marpe T Wiegand and S Gordon H 264 MPEG 4 AVC fidelity range extensions tools profiles performance and application areas IEEE ICIP 2005 pp Geneva Italy Sept 2005 10 Report of the Formal Verification Tests on AVC ISO IEC 14496 10 ITU T Rec H 264 3
