Blocking artifacts reduction method for video scene coding by means of discrete cosine transformation with a low data rate

Abstract

Abstract A method for reducing what are referred to as blocking artifacts in a video scene coding with discrete cosine transformation (DCT) at a low data rate is provided in a video signal transmission system, having a transmit-side video signal input to which a video signal to be transmitted is supplied. A transmit-side coder transmits frequency limitation parameters allocated to the individual blocks of the video signal to be divided into a plurality of blocks at a receive-side decoder, via a transmission channel, together with a block-associated video sub-signal that is coded by the coder. The frequency limitation parameters are used at the receive side to control a block filter function at the output of the decoder that outputs a decoded video signal, controlling this for postprocessing of the decoded video signal for the purpose of reducing the blocking artifacts.
