Abstract
A multi-scanner scans a signal according to several different patterns. A scanning pattern selector determines which scanning pattern produced the most efficient coding result, for example, for runlength coding, and outputs a coded signal, coded most efficiently, and a selection signal which identifies the scanning pattern found to be most efficient.
Claims4
A video signal compression apparatus, comprising:
- a scanner which is operative to scan a quantized set of video frequency coefficients of an individual sub-block according to a scanning pattern which is selected from a plurality of scanning patterns to produce a set of reordered coefficients;
- an entropy coder which is operative to entropy encode the set of reordered coefficients and output an entropy encoded signal;
- and
- a transmitter which transmits the entropy encoded signal and a scan selection signal that is not entropy encoded,
- wherein the scan selection signal indicates the scanning pattern.
