Abstract

In this paper, we present a new rate control scheme for spatial and coarse-grain-SNR (CGS) scalable coding in SVC. Firstly, a rate-distortion (R-D) model is provided for I/P/B frames according to mode analysis. Secondly, an efficient hierarchical bit allocation and two-pass refinement of quantization parameter (QP) are proposed. Thirdly, a standard deviation prediction between inter layers is presented. The experiments show that the proposed rate control scheme can achieve an average PSNR improvement of 0.3-0.7dB on average in terms of PSNR against the anchor scheme using hierarchical B frame coding with fixed QP. Meanwhile, the mismatch between target bit rate and real coded bit rate does not exceed 2%.
