Coding for Moving Pictures and Still Pictures at 256 Kbit/s and 64 Kbit/s

Objectif

This project addressed advanced compression techniques for moving video and still picture coding for teleconferencing applications. After reviewing state-of-the-art techniques and requirements, the project objectives were to:
-Achieve very high compression rates for videoconference-grade image motion with good resolution and quality. Advanced intraframe and interframe compression techniques were investigated, including orthogonal transform coding algorithms.
-Achieve high picture quality and resolution for still-picture coding in order to reproduce business graphs, technical drawings, and photographs.
-Define a proposal for a standard for moving image codecs.

achieve high picture quality and resolution for still picture coding in order to reproduce business graphs, technical drawings, and photographs;
define a proposal for a standard for moving image codecs.

Advanced algorithms were selected, defined and tested by computer simulation. Impressive simulation results were demonstrated of the real time transmission of moving images over a 64 Kbit/s link. This technique, fully implemented, would allow the use of integrated services digital network (ISDN) as a carrier for setting up videoconferences.
