Abstract

Since DPCM and transform coding are two fundamental approaches to high-efficiency (bit reduction) coding, it is important to clarify the basic coding characteristics of these approaches and the differences between them in order to utilize the high-efficiency coding method effectively. It is important to compare them not only from the standpoint of coding performance as optimized coding schemes based on the statistics of the input picture signal, but also from that of the robustness of coding performance for the variation of picture statistics to be coded. This paper theoretically compares the robustness of the coding performance of DPCM having a two-dimensional predictor with that of a two-dimensional Hadamard transform coding in an intrafield coding method of the NTSC composite signal. The comparison provides theoretical evidence that transform coding is more stable than DPCM, and this tendency is marked at lower bit rates such as 1 or 2 bits/pel, while DPCM has a higher coding performance for pictures with high autocorrelation.
