Patent ID: 11736704

Abstract:
Video encoding methods and apparatuses for Sum of Absolute Transformed Difference (SATD) computation by folded Hadamard transform circuits include splitting a current block into SATD blocks, receiving input data associated with a first block of a first SATD block in a first cycle and receiving input data associated with a second block of the first SATD block in a second cycle, and performing calculations for the first block by shared Hadamard transform circuits in the first cycle and performing calculations for the second block by the shared Hadamard transform circuits in the second cycle. Each shared Hadamard transform circuit is a first part of each folded Hadamard transform circuit. The video encoding methods and apparatuses further perform calculations for the entire SATD block by a final part of each folded Hadamard transform circuit to generate a final SATD result of the first SATD block for encoding.
