CODIFICATORE DECODIFICATORE DEDICATO ALLA TRASMISSIONE E O RICEZIONE DI IMMAGINI TELEVISIVE SU CANALE NUMERICO A BASSA VELOCITA

摘要

Coder-decoder of television pictures for transmission and/or reception via digital low-speed channel. In transmission, it first carries out the bidimensional transform of digital sample blocks of the television signal and then a dichotomic quantization thus obtaining quantized coefficients with variable length as a function of the coefficient index; in reception, it first carries out a quantization for quantized coefficients re-assignment of suitable quantization levels, and then the bidimensional antitransform for obtaining again the digital television signal samples. An optimized configuration of digital sample memory in transmission and in reception is shown in FIG. 1.
