Video Codec Design : Developing Image and Video Compression Systems, Hardcover by Richardson, Lain E. G., ISBN 0471485535, ISBN-13 9780471485537, Brand New, Free shipping in the US An overview of the technology of compression and decompression of images and video through the use of an enCODer/DECoder (or CODEC). After dealing with fundamental concepts of compression and international standards for video coding, Richards on (Robert Gordon U., UK) presents separate sections on key components of video CODECs and system design issues. Topics include motion estimation and compensation, transform coding, entropy coding, pre- and post-processing, distortion and complexity, transmission of coded video, and platforms. Annotation c.

ReviewsThis book deserves to be in every university library and it would be excellent as a course text. Also, if you have even a passing understanding of signal processing and want to know more, it's a great read--VISUAL SYSTEMS JOURNAL, JUNE 2002, "...an excellent book...if you have any interest in the subject it is worth every penny..." (Visual Systems Journal, June 2002)

SynopsisCodec algorithms are used to encode and decode (or compress and decompress) data, such as video files, without distorting the visual quality of the decoded image. The key technologies of image and video coding are enabling a wide and growing range of multimedia devices, systems and low bit-rate application., Video compression coding is the enabling technology behind a new wave of communication applications. From streaming internet video to broadcast digital television and digital cinema, the video codec is a key building block for a host of new multimedia applications and services. Video Codec Design sets out to de-mystify the subject of video coding and present a practical, design-based approach to this emerging field. Featuring: Guidance on the practical design and implementation of video coding technology. Explanation of the major video coding standards, including MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.263 and H.26L. Detailed coverage of key video coding techniques and core algorithms. Examination of critical design issues including transmission, Quality of Service and processing platforms. A wealth of illustrations and practical examples, including quantitative comparisons of design alternatives. Video Codec Design provides communications engineers, system designers, researchers and technical managers with an essential handbook to image and video compression technology. The clear presentation and emphasis on real-life examples make this book an excellent teaching tool for computer science and electronic engineering instructors., Video compression coding is the enabling technology behind a new wave of communication applications.

Bekannt sind zum Beispiel Codecs zur Konvertierung von analoger Videosignale in komprimierte Videodateien wie MPEG. Dieses Lehrbuch vermittelt Ihnen einen Überblick über einschlägige Standards und Technologien, der Schwerpunkt liegt auf Fragen des Designs. Einleuchtende qualitative und quantitative Vergleiche von Systemalternativen werden anhand von Fallstudien vorgenommen.
