    • According the present invention there is provided apparatus for matching a plurality of functions to a digital signal so as to represent the digital signal in terms of said functions comprising a first processor for determining one or more common factors in the plurality of functions; and means for representing at least some of the functions in terms of one or more others of said functions thereby to reduce the amount of processing necessary for the matching.
      This has the advantage that there is no unnecessary processing to determine the basis functions. Where there is commonality and the process would require less processing potential to make use of this than not then the commonality is exploited.

    • The present invention relates to a method of generating and transmitting digitally encoded signals in which portions of the code are predicted from earlier. The invention is applied to a digital video compression system in which temporal predictive coding is used in order to reduce the data rate of the transmitted signal. Predictions are made for the reconstruction of the current picture based on elements of pictures that have been coded in the past. A prediction is made for each reference block from each of five picture areas. A distortion value is derived for each prediction and a selection is made from the predictions based on the distortion values of the predictions. By biasing the selection between the different predictions towards that prediction which was last selected, predictions of approximately equal quality from completely different picture areas will be avoided. This avoids the situation where small advantages in prediction quality are outweighed by a larger codeword for the transmission of the prediction.
    • 本发明涉及一种产生和传输数字编码信号的方法,其中部分代码是从较早的时间预测的。 本发明应用于数字视频压缩系统,其中使用时间预测编码以降低发送信号的数据速率。 基于过去编码的图像元素对当前图像进行预测。 对来自五个图片区域中的每一个的每个参考块进行预测。 为每个预测导出失真值,并根据预测的失真值从预测中进行选择。 通过在不同的预测之间偏向于最后选择的预测的选择,将避免来自完全不同图像区域的近似相等质量的预测。 这避免了预测传输的较大代码字超过预测质量的小优点。

    • The present invention relates generally to the domain of digital signal processing and, more precisely, the methods and apparatus employed in the reduction of visibility of blockiness in images or video sequences encoded using block-based coding techniques such as MPEG.
      The present invention detects a level of blockiness between blocks in an image and applies a variable filter across the block boundaries. The filter parameters are chosen depending on the level of blockiness detected. If no blockiness is detected then no filtering is performed on the image.
      An important aspect of the present invention reduces the false detection of naturally occurring blockiness in images by analysing the image both spatially and temporally.
    • 本发明一般涉及数字信号处理的领域,更确切地说,涉及降低使用基于块的编码技术(例如MPEG)编码的图像或视频序列中的块效果的可视性的方法和装置。 本发明检测图像中的块之间的块级,并跨越块边界应用可变滤波器。 过滤器参数根据检测到的阻塞水平来选择。 如果没有检测到阻塞,则不对图像执行滤波。 本发明的一个重要方面通过在空间和时间上分析图像来减少图像中天然发生的块状物的错误检测。

    • This invention relates to improvements in controlling the decoder buffer occupancy, particularly in relation to, but not exclusively to, switching between compressed bitstreams.
      This invention provides a method of modifying a digital bitstream 11 to be transmitted through a decoder 14 having a buffer 15. An expected level of buffer occupancy is determined for a point in the digital bitstream 11 and the digital bitstream 11 is modified at that point to change the buffer occupancy to a second level. The second level may be determined from a second digital bitstream 12. One advantage of this method is that the occupancy of the buffer 15 can be adjusted to match the buffer requirements of the second bitstream 12 before switching to the second bitstream 12.
      The invention provides method and apparatus for improving the decoder buffer management during switching between bitstreams.

    • The invention concerns a method and apparatus to synthesize a frequency employing digital phase words to represent successive phase values.
      A digital dither signal generator is used to generate a succession of dither words which are summed with the phase words to form address words. The address words are used to address a store to convert the address words to waveform values. The periodic quantisation noise introduced by the digital process is made more random by means of the dither words thereby reducing the quantisation noise components while accepting an increased total noise power.
      The synthesizer is of particular advantage when used to generate the reference frequency for a frequency multiplier implemented as a phase lock loop. By making the dither sequence repetition frequency outside the phase lock loop bandwidth, the spurious components are removed from the frequency range of interest.
    • 本发明涉及一种使用数字相位字来合成频率来表示连续相位值的方法和装置。 数字抖动信号发生器用于产生与相位字相加的一连串抖动字以形成地址字。 地址字用于寻址存储,以将地址字转换为波形值。 由数字处理引入的周期性量化噪声通过抖动字进行更随机,从而在接受增加的总噪声功率的同时减少量化噪声分量。 当用于为实现为锁相环的倍频器生成参考频率时,合成器具有特别的优点。 通过使抖动序列重复频率超出锁相环带宽,则从感兴趣的频率范围中去除杂散分量。
