Advances in Rate Distortion Optimization and Rate Control Techniques for H.264 Video Coding
Based on the researches of rate distortion optimization (RDO) and rate control (RC) techniques for H.264
this paper divides the development of RDO and RC into three phases based on RC intention
namely rate distortion modeling
considering the effect of quality fluctuation on subjective quality
subjective distortion guided RC;analyzes the characteristics of representative RC techniques of each phase
and focuses on the key and difficult issues of RC needed to be further researched.Then summarizes the RC schemes for transmission oriented error resilient video coding
scalable video coding (SVC) and multiple description coding (MDC) as well as stereo and multi-view video coding
and analyzes further research trends.Finally
how to develop the RC schemes for high efficiency video coding (HEVC) is discussed.
