摘要： Methods and apparatus are provided for statistical re-multiplexing of multiple channels. Mechanisms are provided to manipulate and/or recode multiple compressed bit streams such that a resulting bit stream has a rate matching adjusted based on the allowable output channel rate. Loss-less transmission of compressed video bit streams can be output in real-time. In one example, the system includes encoders and demultiplexers on multiple channels. The demultiplexers are connected to a scheduler and multiplexer to provide an output bit stream at a given channel rate.

摘要： A system and method for multiple channel statistical re-multiplexing preferably includes a plurality of encoders each coupled to a respective channel and producing a compressed channel, a statistical re-multiplexer and a transport medium. The statistical re-multiplexer preferably has a plurality of inputs and an output for combining the input compressed channels into a single output bit stream. The statistical multiplexer further includes a plurality of de-multiplexers and a scheduler & multiplexer having a plurality of buffers, a scheduling table and a controller. Each of the buffers receives and stores compressed data from a respective encoder for a respective channel. The output of each buffer is coupled to a respective de-multiplexer that re-encodes the compressed channel in response to control signals from the scheduler & multiplexer. The scheduler and multiplexer receive the re-multiplexed streams from the re-multiplexers, and combine them into a single stream that matches the bandwidth of the physical transport medium.

摘要： A system for decoding variable length codes comprises a window buffer, a unique variable length code look-up table and a decoder. The window buffer is coupled to receive a bit stream and provides a window output having the same number of bits in the longest variable length code. The output of the window buffer is coupled to address the variable length code look-up table. The look-up table has entries pre-calculated based on the variable length code book and is pre-stored in the system. The window buffer can have a size of any number of bits from X to Y where X is the number of bits in the longest variable length code and Y is a number greater than X. The output of the variable length code look-up table is provided to the decoder. The output of the variable length code look-up table includes the code specified by the bits, and a number of bits that the window buffer should be incremented. This number is in turn used by the decoder to increment the window buffer. The present invention is particularly advantageous because with a modest increase in the size and format of the variable length code look-up table, the decoder in a single computation can determine the code.

摘要： A filter that filters in the spatial and temporal domain in a single step with filtering coefficients that can be varied depending upon the complexity of the video and the motion between the adjacent frames comprises: a IIR filter, a threshold unit, and a coefficient register. The IIR filter and threshold unit are coupled to receive video data. The IIR filter is also coupled to the coefficient register and the threshold unit. The IIR filter receives coefficients, a, from the coefficient register and uses them to filter the video data received. The IIR filter filters the data in the vertical, horizontal and temporal dimensions in a single step. The filtered data output by the IIR filter is sent to the threshold unit. The threshold unit compares the absolute value of the difference between the filtered data and the raw video data to a threshold value from the coefficient register, and then outputs either the raw video data or the filtered data. The present invention is advantageous because it preserves significant edges in video sequence; it preserves motion changes in video sequences; it reduces noise; and it uses minimal memory storage and introduces minimal processing delay. The present invention also includes methods for filtering in parallel the pixel data in one step for the horizontal, vertical and temporal dimensions.
