Abstract

In this paper, a joint coding scheme for improving the coding efficiency of macroblock prediction type (MBTYPE) and coded block pattern (CBP) is proposed. The proposed coding scheme exploits the characteristics of zero-order Exp-Golomb code for coding MBTYPE and CBP, and makes use of the fractional bits which are unused by MBTYPE to code both maximum MBTYPE and CBP so that each bit can be more efficiently used. With joint coding scheme, the average length of coded bits for the maximum MBTYPE and the CBP is shortened. The total bitrate is therefore reduced. The analysis and experimental results show that the proposed scheme is efficient for improving the coding performances of sequences, especially to those sequences with more blocks coded with maximum MBTYPE.
