Abstract :

Here, we provide a quick primer on the fundamentals of H.264/AVC, a popular codec and decoder. Motion estimation and compensation, in-frame and inter-frame prediction, integer transform and quantization analysis, entropy coding methods, deblock filter, new photographic image type, aspect oriented IP and wireless environment, etc. are all aspects of the H.264/AVC standard that we have studied in depth. The H.264/AVC standard has reconciled coding efficiency with image quality, and its effect is clear; however, many of the advantages gained have come at the expense of computational simplicity. As a result, researchers will focus on simultaneously improving coding efficiency and reducing computational complexity in future work.
