MOTION ESTIMATOR

A motion vector suitable for motion-compensated prediction in an inter-frame differential video coder is derived by comparison of each block of a current frame with the corresponding region of a previous frame and with shifted regions of the previous frame. Rather than dealing with each block in tur...

Summary:A motion vector suitable for motion-compensated prediction in an inter-frame differential video coder is derived by comparison of each block of a current frame with the corresponding region of a previous frame and with shifted regions of the previous frame. Rather than dealing with each block in turn, the apparatus carries out all comparisons involving a line n of the video signal before commencing comparisons involving n+p (where p is the number of lines encompassed by a block).
