Cisco Confidential 16 JPEG-2000 vs MPEG-4 I/IP Conclusion AVC Intra – JPEG-2000 and MPEG-4 Intra performs similarly at high bitrates (100Mbps and higher) – MPEG-4 Intra generally outperforms JPEG-2k slightly at lower rates (50Mbps and lower) – When visual frequency weighing is enabled, JPEG-2k produces, in some cases, better visual quality than MPEG-4 Intra. Need to use QP scaling for MPEG-4 AVC for a more fair comparison AVC IP-frames – MPEG-4 AVC IP significantly outperforms JPEG-2k especially at low and medium rates (~80Mbps and lower). – May add one frame of latency. JPEG 2000 – Very LOW latency at high bitrates – Robust, scalable quality, lossless compression – Inexpensive DMN User Conf-RS © 2008 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved.

Typically one single tile is used. (full frame – best quality) Wavelet based image compression standard – A wavelet - is a mathematical function used to divide the picture into different frequency components (sub-bands). Then wavelet coefficients are generated for all frequency sub-bands. – By itself the Wavelet Transform does not compress image data; it restructures the image information so that it is easier to compress Quantization and Entropy encoding – A study of each component with a resolution that matches the compression bitrate. – The quantized sub-bands are split into rectangular regions. Each of these rectangular regions are then further broken down into code blocks and then entropy coded. This is context modelling and arithmetic coding on a code block.

  • 1. Introduction
    AN377 TIMING AND SYNCHRONIZATION IN BROADCAST VIDEO 1. Introduction Digitization of video signals has been common practice in broadcast video for many years. Early digital video was commonly encoded on a 10-bit parallel bus, but as higher processing speeds became practical, a serial form of the digitized video signal called the Serial Digital Interface (SDI) was developed and standardized. Serialization of the digital video stream greatly facilitates its distribution within a professional broadcast studio. Master Sync Generator Sync Video Server (Mass Storage) (Genlock) On-site Video Cameras SDI SDI Video Switching/ Processing SDI Transmission Facility SDI SDI Distribution Video Amplifier SDI SDI Router Frame Synchronizer SDI SDI Remote Professional Video Server Video Camera Monitor (Storage) Figure 1. Typical Example of a Professional Broadcast Video In a studio with multiple cameras, it is important that video signals coming from multiple sources are frame aligned or synchronized to allow seamless switching between video sources. For this reason, a synchronization signal is often distributed to all video sources using a master synchronization generator as shown in Figure 1. This allows video switching equipment to select between multiple sources without having to buffer and re-synchronize all of its input video signals. In this application note, we will take a closer look at the various components that make up a broadcast video system and how each of the components play a role in the synchronization chain. Rev. 0.1 8/09 Copyright © 2009 by Silicon Laboratories AN377 AN377 2. Digitizing the Video Signal A video camera uses sensors to capture and convert light to electrical signals that represent the three primary colors– red, green, and blue (RGB).
