Abstract

The authors develop a technique to compress HDTV images to below 135 Mb/s at transparent quality, i.e., visually indistinguishable from the original. This is at least equal to the contribution quality. The proposed scheme consists of a lossy and a lossless coder. The lossy coder combines the advantages of two image coding methods, namely, mean/residue vector quantization (MRVQ) and discrete cosine transform (DCT) coding, and the lossless coder is an arithmetic coder (AC), which has been shown to outperform the commonly used Huffman code . The authors describe the various components of the hybrid HDTV image coding scheme and how they are implemented
