    Abstract: Whether to encode a present video block of an incoming video frame, i.e. intra code, or whether to encode the difference between the present video block of the incoming frame and a best match video block from a previously stored video frame, i.e. non-intra code, is determined in a video compression system 100. First the present video block is divided into a predetermined number of sub blocks 301. Then an average pixel value is calculated for each sub block 302 and used along with the individual pixel values of the sub block to determine sub block deviations 303. The sub block deviations are used to compute a present video block deviation 303. The present video block deviation is then compared with an error deviation 306 that is calculated based upon the present video block pixel values and the best match video block pixel values 305. If the comparison is favorable, then the difference between the present video block and the best match video block are encoded. If the comparison is unfavorable, then the present video block is encoded.

    Abstract: The present invention is method, rate controller, and system for preventing overflow and underflow of a decoder buffer in a video compression system. First, a plurality of quantized video bits is received from an encoder (102). The plurality of quantized video bits correspond to a video frame type. Then, a virtual buffer is created, in a rate controller, to model fullness of a decoder buffer, based on the quantized video bits, to produce a virtual buffer fullness (104). A quantization stepsize estimate is finally determined, in a rate controller, based on at least a first predetermined target bit allocation, the video frame type, and the virtual buffer fullness (106). The quantization step size estimate will prevent the overflow and underflow of a decoder buffer.

    Abstract: In a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) cellular system, there is provided a mechanism for synchronization and equalization comprising: providing synchronization information (S/S) sufficiently removed from the start of a TDM slot so as to maintain the integrity of that synchronization information (S/S) at adjacent cells and providing that synchronization information (S/S) not so far removed from the start of the slot as to necessitate adaptive equalization of information preceding the synchronization information (S/S) for sufficiently reliable recovery. The equalization is further enhanced by providing, roughly midway between the synchronization information (S/S) and the end of the slot, additional information (CC) upon which equalization may retrain. Accordingly, equalizers perform retrospective, non-adaptive equalization of information preceding the synchronization information (S/S), perform adaptive equalization of information following that synchronization information (S/S), and retrain utilizing known bit-sequences elsewhere within the TDM slot; the additional information (CC) comprises known bit-sequences identifying cells.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a method (100) and device (200) for allocating bits to video pictures in a video compression system. A sequence of video frames or pictures is received, and the number of bits used to compress a previously encoded frame and a signal-to-noise ratio for the immediately previously encoded video frame are determined. Rate distortion model parameters are updated. Then, first, second, and third deviations are determined. Finally, the bit allocation for the frame is determined based on the first number of bits used to compress a previously encoded frame, the first deviation, the second deviation, and the third deviation.
