AVS CHINA, IMPLEMENTATION & PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF VIDEO PROFILES

Interim Report Color Space: Y’CrCb often termed YUV in digital video.The HVS is less sensitive to changes in color than in
changes in luminance. Y'CrCb is used to separate out a luma signal (Y ) that can ′
be stored with high resolution or transmitted at high bandwidth, and two chroma components (CB and CR) that can be bandwidth-reduced, sub sampled, compressed, or otherwise treated separately for improved system efficiency.

Picture Types
Intra Pictures (I-Pictures)Predicted Pictures (P-Pictures)Interpolated Pictures (B-Pictures)
Predicted Picture (P-Picture)Prediction of a Macro block or block in the current picture may be from the
most recent reference picture or from the second most recent reference picture.
Fig 4. P-Pictures [4]
Predicted Picture (P-Picture) In Interlaced Format, prediction of the current field may be made from the
four most recent fields. As shown, these fields may be in the current frame, most recent frame or second most recent frame.

Table 1. Modes of P-picture [5]
Interpolated Picture (B-Picture)A Macro block or block in the current picture is predicted by the average of
the macro blocks or blocks in the most recent and future P-Pictures that are selected by the motion vector.
Fig 6. Interpolated Pictures [4]
Interpolated Picture ModesDirect Mode: Both forward and backward motion vectors of current
block are derived from the motion vector of its collocated block .
Symmetric Mode: Forward motion vector needs to be transmitted for each
partition of current macroblock, while backward motion vector is conducted from the forward motion vector by a symmetric rule .
Intra Picture(I-Picture) Intra-frame prediction (intra-prediction) uses decoded information in the
current frame as the reference of prediction, exploiting statistical spatial dependencies between pixels within a picture.
