A parallel H.264/SVC encoder for high definition video conferencing

作者：

Highlights：

• A parallel H.264/SVC encoder for high definition video conferencing is proposed.

• Parallel encoding techniques are used to accomplish real-time operation.

• The system incorporates a novel low-complexity parallel-friendly rate controller.

• The best encoder configuration able to minimize the encoding losses was found.

• Real-time execution even at high bit rates and tight buffer control are achieved.
