Abstract: This Plenary Lecture seeks to provide codec deployment performance for MPEG High Effiency Video Coding (HEVC). With the increased growth of video traffic, coding and compression of video are as important as ever. Today, video related Internet and mobile traffic exceeds more than 50% of the overall in each domain. This process is expected to continue with some predictions forecasting video to be dominant type of traffic. The majority of the video bits are compressed using the H.264/MPEG-AVC standard, which has been the driving force behind high definition (HD) video. In recent years , a successor has been standardized : H-265 / MPEG-HEVC. The primary goal of this standard was to half the bit rates needed by its predecessor, i.e to optimize coding effiency. This means the ability to minimize the bit rate necessary for encoded video content to reach a given level of video quality, or to minimize the video quality achievable within a given available bit rate.
This presentation consists of two parts : HEVC technology development and performance results of reference codec implementation. The first part starts with standardization process. Then, video coding design together with video codec implementation are provided. All encoders are configured to use the same encoding techniques, The second part deals with coding efficiency, subjective video quality as well as video codec complexity. The coding efficiency of three generation of video coding standards is compared by means of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and subjective testing results: MPEG HEVC, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC and H.262/MPEG-2.
