“…The basis functions of the three transforms considered in the MTS module are expressed by Equations (1), (2) and (3) for DCT-II C2, DST-VII S7 and DCT-VIII C8, respectively. MTS extends the use of the DST-VII/DCT-VIII for blocks of sizes 8×8, 16×16 and 32×32 including all possible asymmetric blocks, and also considers the 64×64 block size for the DCT-II.…”

Versatile Video Coding (VVC) is the next generation video coding standard expected by the end of 2020. Compared to its predecessor, VVC introduces new coding tools to make compression more efficient at the expense of higher computational complexity. This rises a need to design an efficient and optimised implementation especially for embedded platforms with limited memory and logic resources. One of the newly introduced tools in VVC is the Multiple Transform Selection (MTS). This latter involves three Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT)/Discrete Sine Transform (DST) types with larger and rectangular transform blocks. In this paper, an efficient hardware implementation of all DCT/DST transform types and sizes is proposed. The proposed design uses 32 multipliers in a pipelined architecture which targets an ASIC platform. It consists in a multi-standard architecture that supports the transform block of recent MPEG standards including AVC, HEVC and VVC. The architecture is optimized and removes unnecessary complexities found in other proposed architectures by using regular multipliers instead of multiple constant multipliers. The synthesized results show that the proposed method which sustain a constant throughput of two pixels/cycle and constant latency for all block sizes can reach an operational frequency of 600 Mhz enabling to decode in real-time 4K videos at 48 fps.

“…Based on High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), the Joint Video Exploration Team (JVET) is developing a new video coding standard called Versatile Video Coding (VVC) [17]. VVC already enables a bitrate saving of 35% to 40% with respect to HEVC for the same visual quality [18]. VVC introduces several new coding tools at different levels of the coding chain including frame partitioning, Intra/Inter predictions, transform, quantization, entropy coding and in-loop filters.…”

Light field technology represents a viable path for providing a high-quality VR content. However, such an imaging system generates a high amount of data leading to an urgent need for LF image compression solution. In this paper, we propose an efficient LF image coding scheme based on view synthesis. Instead of transmitting all the LF views, only some of them are coded and transmitted, while the remaining views are dropped. The transmitted views are coded using Versatile Video Coding (VVC) and used as reference views to synthesize the missing views at decoder side. The dropped views are generated using the efficient dual discriminator GAN model. The selection of reference/dropped views is performed using a rate distortion optimization based on the VVC temporal scalability. Experimental results show that the proposed method provides high coding performance and overcomes the state-of-the-art LF image compression solutions.

“…The ISO/moving picture experts group (MPEG) and ITU/video coding experts group (VCEG) developed the next generation video coding standard called versatile video coding (VVC). This latter, released in July 2020, introduces new coding tools outperforming HEVC by up to 50% in terms of bitrate reduction for a similar visual quality [15]. To the best of our knowledge, format-compliant and constant bitrate encryption of VVC has not yet been addressed.…”

Versatile video coding (VVC) is the next generation video coding standard developed by the joint video experts team (JVET) and released in July 2020. VVC introduces several new coding tools providing a significant coding gain over the high efficiency video coding (HEVC) standard. It is well known that increasing the coding efficiency adds more dependencies in the video bitstream making formatcompliant encryption with the standard more challenging. In this paper we tackle the problem of selective encryption of the VVC standard in format-compliant and constant bitrate. These two constraints ensure that the encrypted bitstream can be decoded by any VVC decoder while the bitrate remains unchanged by the encryption. The selective encryption of all possible VVC syntax elements is investigated. A new algorithm is proposed to encrypt in format-compliant and constant bitrate the transform coefficients (TCs) together with other syntax elements at the level of the entropy encoder. The proposed solution was integrated and assessed under the VVC reference software model version 6.0. Experimental results showed that encryption drastically decreases the video quality while the encryption is robust against several types of attacks. The encryption space is estimated in the range of 15% to 26% of the bitstream size resulting in a lightweight encryption process.
