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.
Claims2
A video signal compression method comprising:
- transforming to output a set of video frequency coefficients of an individual sub-block;
- quantizing to output a quantized set of video frequency coefficients;
- scanning the quantized set of video frequency coefficients according to a scanning pattern which is selected from a plurality of scanning patterns, the scanning pattern scanning each of a plurality of sub-blocks having n×n coefficients, in a following sequence:
- M(0,0), M(1,0), M(0,1), M(0,2), M(1,1), M(2,0), M(3,0), M(2,1), M(1,2), . . . , M(n-1,n-1), from lowest frequency to highest frequency to produce a set of reordered coefficients;
- producing a scan selection signal indicating the scanning pattern of the scanned quantized set of video frequency coefficients;
- and
- entropy encoding the set of reordered coefficients and outputting an entropy encoded signal,
- wherein the scan selection signal is not entropy encoded.
