HYBRID-CODIERER FUER VIDEOSIGNALE

摘要

Known hybrid encoders for transmitting video frames contain a motion estimator and an inter/intra-frame decision circuit. Because of the required high processing speed, motion estimators and inter/intra- frame decision circuits must have a parallel processing structure which leads to a not inconsiderable component expenditure. It is intended to reduce this expenditure. <??>For this purpose, a calculation module is proposed which can be used in the motion estimator and in the inter/intra frame decision circuit. <??>The field of application of this invention is, for example, hybrid encoders for video telephone sets. <IMAGE>
