Abstract
A novel bit-rate reduction method developed for the MUSE (multiple subNyquist sampling encoding) signal is discussed. This method uses an orthogonal transformation by which the MUSE data-rate is reduced from 1/2 to 1/3 of the original, maintaining a picture quality acceptable for the home-use digital VTR of a HDTV (high-definition television) system. By simultaneous application of two-dimensional DCT (discrete cosine transform) and nonlinear quantization methods for a quincuncial pixel arrangement formed within a field, an optimum data assignment between DCT coefficients and nonlinear quantization values is accomplished by using a variable length coding method.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
