摘要:
This disclosure describes content-adaptive coding and modulation techniques. In particular, this disclosure describes techniques in which both a multimedia coding mode and a physical layer modulation scheme are adaptively selected based on content of a multimedia sequence. When the content changes such that either the coding or the modulation scheme can be improved, the coding and/or modulation may be changed to better optimize to the changed content. In one aspect, this disclosure provides a method of processing multimedia data, the method comprising selecting a multimedia coding mode for an encoder to encode the multimedia data and a physical layer modulation scheme for transmission of the multimedia data based on content of the multimedia data.

This disclosure describes techniques for improving mode selection decisions during the encoding of macroblocks (or other blocks) of multimedia frames of a multimedia sequence. During motion estimation, the encoding modes for macroblocks can be determined so that a desirable encoding rate and acceptable levels of distortion (i.e., acceptable rate-distortion) can be achieved. The techniques may include selecting a set of multimedia coding modes between at least two sets of possible multimedia coding modes for a macroblock of a multimedia frame based on a detail metric associated with the macroblock and mode information associated with neighboring blocks to the macroblock.
摘要:
In general, this disclosure relates to techniques for transmitting data for applications using one or more available channels of a spectrum. One example method comprises transforming data into a digital broadcast format, identifying at least one available channel of a spectrum, and transmitting the transformed data in the at least one identified available channel.
摘要:
Methods and apparatuses to encode multimedia data enabling, among others, for example, improved decoded video quality, improved error recovery capabilities and/or improved decoding efficiency are described. An encoder device determines one or more distortion values for one or more portions of multimedia data based at least in part on one or more concealment methods related to concealing the one or more portions if the one or more portions were received in error. The encoder device determines one or more encoding methods for the one or more portions based at least in part on the one or more estimated distortion values. In one aspect, determining the one or more encoding methods comprises determining the one or more encoding methods so as to refresh the one or more portions based at least in part on a comparison of the one or more estimated distortion values and one or more thresholds.

This application includes devices and methods for processing multimedia data to generate enhanced multimedia data at a receiver based on encoder assisted pre-processing. In one aspect, processing multimedia data includes identifying at least one pixel intensity range in at least one image of multimedia data, modifying at least a portion of the multimedia data to reduce the pixel intensity range, and encoding the modified multimedia data to form encoded multimedia data.

Devices and methods for processing multimedia data to generate enhanced quality multimedia data at the receiver based on encoder assisted post-processing. In one aspect, processing multimedia data includes identifying an indicator of a post-processing technique, encoding first multimedia data to form first encoded data, processing the first encoded data to form second multimedia data, the processing comprising decoding the first encoded data and applying the post-processing technique identified by the indicator, comparing the second multimedia data to the first multimedia data to determine difference information indicative of differences between the second multimedia data and the first multimedia data, and generating second encoded data based on the difference information.
摘要:
A method of losslessly compressing and encoding signals representing image information is claimed. A lossy compressed data file and a residual compressed data file are generated. When the lossy compressed data file and the residual compressed data file are combined, a lossless data file that is substantially identical to the original data file is created.

In general, this disclosure describes techniques for exchanging information between a plurality of encoder modules and a multiplex module to combine segments of data from the encoder modules with an improved overall quality. In particular, the encoder modules associate their respective segments of data with quality and rate information and send at least the quality and rate information associated with the segments of data to the multiplex module. The multiplex module analyzes the quality and rate information to determine whether the segments of data that encoder modules desire to include in the current superframe fit within the available bandwidth of a transmission channel. If the multiplex module determines the plurality of segments of data do not fit within the available bandwidth, the multiplex module selects one or more of the segments to be resized based on the quality and rate information received from the encoder modules.

In one example, a method comprises defining a period of time for encoding a set of frames of multimedia data, encoding a first portion of the set of frames of multimedia data at a first encoding rate, encoding a second portion of the set of frames of multimedia data at a second encoding rate, wherein the second encoding rate is less than the first encoding rate so as to create a null interval during the period of time, transmitting the encoded set of frames via a transmitter, and blanking the transmitter during the null interval.

In one example, a method comprises encoding and modulating a first set of frames such that a latency associated with demodulating and decoding the first set of frames is less than a first time interval, encoding and modulating a second set of frames such that a required latency associated with demodulating and decoding the first set of frames is less than a second time interval, transmitting the first set of frames and the second set of frames via a transmitter, and blanking the transmitter during a null interval associated with transmitting the second set of frames, wherein the null interval and the second time interval are less than or equal to the first time interval.
