    摘要: A coding apparatus, in which each block having a plurality of picture elements with digital image signals is divided into a plurality of sub-blocks, and an appropriate quantization step or weighting factor is decided on the basis of the absolute value sum of difference of image signal level between adjacent picture elements in the sub-block, so that a digital image signal is reduced. Moreover, a coding apparatus, in which each block having a plurality of picture elements with digital image signals is divided into a plurality of sub-blocks, and an appropriate quantization step or weighting factor is decided on the basis of the maximum and minimum values of the image signals of the picture elements in the sub-block, so that a digital image signal is reduced. Accordingly, in the coding apparatus as above, the state of the image is recognized for every block, whereby a block whose degradation of image quality is hard to notice at the decoder side is quantized or subjected to weighting with low rate, that is, with large reduction rate, whereas a block whose degradation of image quality is conspicuous at the decoder side is quantized or subjected to weighting with high rate, i.e., with small reduction rate. As a result, the image quality of the background having little change in the signal is kept good.

    摘要: A coding apparatus reduces a digital image signal. The coding apparatus includes a block formatting circuit for dividing the digital image signal into blocks of a plurality of picture elements, an orthogonal transforming circuit for transforming the blocks of plurality of picture elements into a plurality of coefficients, an adaptive quantizing unit for quantizing the plurality of coefficients with a quantization table, a calculating circuit that divides each block of the digital image signal into a plurality of sub-blocks and obtains a plurality of indexes, and a detecting circuit that obtains a maximum index and a minimum index from the plurality of indexes. Each index indicates a degree of change between the picture elements in a sub-block of the plurality of sub-blocks. The coding apparatus further includes a subtracting unit that obtains a difference between the maximum index and the minimum index, and a selecting unit that obtains the quantization table from a plurality of quantization tables according to the minimum index and the difference. As a result, the image quality of the background having little change in the signal is kept good.

    摘要: A coding method and apparatus is for coding a digital video signal of interlaced type. Three-dimensional (horizontal, vertical and temporal directions) blocks are constructed for each of a plurality of picture elements, orthogonal transform is performed to each of the three-dimensional blocks and coefficients are coded. Coefficients non-effected by a pseudo-moving part are weighted with a low rate, and coefficients effected by a pseudo-moving part are weighted with high rate. After the vertical positions of picture elements of odd-number fields and those of even-number fields are coincided with each other by an intra-field picture element operation, the digital video signal is formatted and three-dimensional orthogonal transform is performed.

    摘要: An encoding apparatus which structures a band-divided digital image signal into three-dimensional blocks each having a plurality of pixels, discriminates each three-dimensional block between a moving image block and a static image block, and, in the case of a static image block, encodes only the three-dimensional blocks in the lower frequency bands while dropping the three-dimensional blocks in the higher frequency bands. However, of moving image blocks, blocks having a large pixel variance value are encoded as effective image blocks. Also, different size weightings are performed to transform coefficients depending on whether the block is discriminated as a moving image block or a static image block. Furthermore, shuffling is performed on a group of moving image blocks and a group of static image blocks independently of each other, and the transform coefficients for the static image blocks are quantized after quantizing all transform coefficients for the moving image blocks.
