Title: Motion-adaptive noise reduction pre-processing for digital video signal
Inventor: CHEN JING YANG
IPC: H04N19/85
Filed: 2002-08-07
Abstract: Noise is reduced in a video system by applying motion compensated temporal filtering using previously generated motion vectors and adaptive spatial filtering at scene change frames. In addition to improvements made to FIR spatial filtering, the present invention improves on previous filtering techniques by using Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) temporal filtering to reduce noise while maintaining edge definition. It also uses motion vectors previously calculated as part of the first-pass image encoding or alternatively by trans coding to reduce computational complexity for P-frame and B-frame image preprocessing. Single stage P-frame temporal noise filteri ng and double stage B-frame temporal noise filtering are presented.
