Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed are Video coding and decoding devices, methods and system thereof, in which the video coding device comprises a video coder for performing video coding on a frame including a plurality of macroblocks by a predefined coding technique so as to output a normal coded stream and for outputting a prediction error value for each of the macroblocks obtained through inter-frame movement prediction, a grading means for grading the macroblocks based on the prediction error values and allocating redundant bit to macroblocks at respective grades, a redundant coder for generating redundant information indicated by corresponding redundant bit for each of the graded macroblock, and a merger means for merging said normal coded stream and said redundant information to generate a final coded stream. With the configuration of the present invention, bit rate will not be increased significantly with content transmission quality being guaranteed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A coding device, comprising: a video coder configured to perform video coding on a frame including a plurality of macroblocks by a predefined coding technique so as to output a normal coded stream and output a prediction error value for each of said macroblocks obtained through inter-frame movement prediction, a grading unit configured to grade said macroblocks based on said prediction error values and allocate different number of redundant bits to said ma…
