Abstract

The motion estimation algorithm based block matching is a widely used in the international standards related to video compression, such as the MPEG series and H.26x series. Full search algorithm(FA) ones of this block matching algorithms is usually impractical because of the large number of computations required for large search region. Fast search algorithms and conventional binary block matching algorithms reduce computational complexity and data processing time but this algorithms have disadvantages that is less performance than full search algorithm. This paper presents new Boolean matching algorithm, called BCBM(Bit Converted Boolean Matching). Proposed algorithm has performance closed to the FA by Boolean only block matching that may be very efficiently implemented in hardware for real time video communication. Simulation results show that the PSNR of the proposed algorithm is about 0.08㏈ loss than FA but is about 0.96∼2.02㏈ gain than fast search algorithm and conventional Boolean matching algorithm.
