    摘要: A system for detecting redundant images in a video sequence includes dividing a target image in the video sequence into a plurality of regions, and determining, for each of the plurality of regions, a local value comprising a sum of differences between individual pixels of each region and corresponding pixels in at least one other image in the video sequence. The local value for each of the plurality of regions is then compared to a first predetermined threshold. The system also includes determining a global value comprising a sum of differences between substantially all pixels in the target image and corresponding pixels in the at least one other image, and comparing the global value to a second predetermined threshold. An indication that the target image is redundant is then output in a case that the local value does not exceed the first predetermined threshold for all regions, and the global value does not exceed the second predetermined threshold.

    摘要: A method and decoder for decoding a hierarchically coded digital video bitstream which can process a high resolution television picture in real time and which is made, up of a number of individual decoder modules, connected in parallel, which each have less real time processing power than is necessary, but which when combined, have at least the necessary processing power needed to process the bitstream in real time. The decoder includes a system controller which detects the hierarchical code indicating bits and slices and communicates this information to a slice parser which dynamically allocates the bitstream among the digital modules as needed on a per slice basis.

    摘要: A method of reducing distortion in a video signal by coding a video frame utilizing a quantization matrix specifically determined for the video frame. The method includes the steps of determining the degree to which the video signal is spread about an average value, determining an average quantizer scale-value Q for the video frame, determining a reference weighted distortion for all DCT frequency bands in the video frame, determining the quantization parameter through a normalized distortion function, determining each weight for each DCT frequency band and coding the video frame taking into account the determined weights in the quantization matrix.

    摘要: A distributed coordination of a wireless network operating on different channels is provided by dispatching a device on each ‘home’ channel to regularly visit other ‘foreign’ channels to propagate and listen to broadcast information on these channels. The information in the broadcast packets transmitted on the home channel is relayed to the devices on the foreign channels by the dispatched device, as a ‘proxy device’ that operates on behalf of the other devices in the home channel. In a preferred embodiment, various aspects of this proxy process are optimized to reduce overhead and delays. Each channel is configured to distinguish home devices from foreign devices, to avoid contention between home and foreign devices. Acquired beacon slots on foreign channels are reserved to facilitate returning proxy devices. At the home channel, an anchor device alerts other devices of the proxy device's temporary absence and preserves the proxy device's beacon slot on the home channel.
