Codec structure

Codec structure. In an MPEG system, the DCT and motion-compensated interframe prediction are combined. The coder subtracts the motion-compensated prediction from the source picture to form a ’prediction error’ picture.

  1. Codec structure • In an MPEG system, the DCT and motion-compensated interframe prediction are combined. • The coder subtracts the motion-compensated prediction from the source picture to form a ’prediction error’ picture. • The prediction error is transformed with the DCT, the coefficients are quantised and these quantised values coded using VLC. tMyn

  2. The coded luminance and chrominance prediction error is combined with ’side information’ required by the decoder, such as motion vectors and synchronising information, and formed into a bitstream for transmission. • Figure 1 shows a simplified structure of a MPEG 2 encoder, Figure 2 that of a MPEG 2 decoder and Figure 3 shows an online of the MPEG 2 video bitstream structure. tMyn

  5. In the decoder, the quantised DCT coefficients are reconstructed and inverse transformed to produce the prediction error. • This is added to the motion-compensated prediction generated from previously decoded pictures to produce the decoded output. tMyn

  7. In Figure 3 each picture is divided into m horizontal slices, each comprising n macroblocks. • For 4:2:0 video, each macroblock contains four luminance and two chrominance 8*8 blocks of quantised DCT coefficients. tMyn
