Abstract
This paper reports the rate-distortion performance comparison of JPEG2000 with H.264/AVC Fidelity Range Extensions (FRExt) High Profile I-frame coding for high definition (HD) video sequences. This work can be considered as an extension of a similar earlier study involving H.264/AVC Main Profile [1]. Coding simulations are performed on a set of 720p and 1080p HD video sequences, which have been commonly used for H.264/AVC standardization work. As expected, our experimental results show that H.264/AVC FRExt I-frame coding offers consistent R-D performance gains (around 0.2 to 1 dB in peak signal-to-noise ratio) over JPEG2000 color image coding. However, similar to [1, 2], we have not considered scalability, computational complexity as well as other JPEG2000 features in this study.
