VIDEO DECODING APPARATUS AND VIDEO DECODING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240323417 titled 'VIDEO DECODING APPARATUS AND VIDEO DECODING METHOD

The abstract of a patent application describes a video decoding apparatus that includes various components such as buffers, processors, and a controller to handle input data received from an entropy decoder.

  • The apparatus has a first buffer to store input data, a first motion compensation processor to extract motion compensation reference data, and a pixel cache to store the reference data.
  • It also includes a second buffer and a controller that manages the storage of motion compensation reference data or intra prediction information based on the type of input data received.
  • The controller controls the second buffer to store the motion compensation reference data when the input data is motion information and to store the intra prediction information when the input data is intra prediction information.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in video decoding systems for efficient processing of motion compensation and intra prediction data. - It can be applied in multimedia devices such as TVs, smartphones, and computers to enhance video decoding performance.

Problems Solved: - Efficient storage and retrieval of motion compensation reference data and intra prediction information in video decoding processes. - Streamlining the handling of different types of input data to improve overall decoding efficiency.

Benefits: - Improved video decoding performance with optimized storage and processing of motion compensation and prediction data. - Enhanced user experience with smoother playback and higher quality video output.

Commercial Applications: - This technology can be utilized in consumer electronics products, video streaming services, and video editing software to enhance video decoding capabilities and improve overall performance.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the controller determine whether to store motion compensation reference data or intra prediction information in the second buffer? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this video decoding apparatus in different multimedia devices and systems?


Original Abstract Submitted

a video decoding apparatus includes a first buffer storing input data received from an entropy decoder, a first motion compensation processor extracting motion compensation reference data based on the input data, and store the motion compensation reference data in a pixel cache, a second buffer, and a controller. the input data comprises one of first data including motion information and second data including intra prediction information. the controller controls the second buffer to store the motion compensation reference data stored in the pixel cache when the input data is the first data, and controls the second buffer to store the second data stored in the first buffer when the input data is the second data.
