Abstract:
A video encoding apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus is used to process a sequence of frames of video data and each frame comprises a plurality of processing blocks. The apparatus comprises a skip decision circuit and an encoder. The skip decision circuit generates a control signal according to a similarity checking result and a comparison result between a first quantization parameter for a first processing block from a current frame and a second quantization parameter for a second processing block from a previous frame. The encoder encodes the first processing block to generate an encoded bit stream and the first quantization parameter. The second processing block resides at the same location in the previous frame as the first processing block in the current frame.

Claim (Index 50):
An image transmission system, comprising:\n a communication channel; a video encoding apparatus comprising;\n a skip decision circuit for generating a control signal according to a block type, a similarity checking result and a comparison result between a first quantization parameter for a first processing block from a current frame and a second quantization parameter for a second processing block from a previous frame; and \n an encoder for encoding a third processing block to generate a first encoded bit stream and the first quantization parameter, wherein the third processing block is one of the first processing block and a first residual; a transmitter for transforming a first formatted bit stream into data packets and transmitting the data packets over the communication channel; a receiver for receiving the data packets and transforming the data packets into a second formatted bit stream; a video decoding apparatus comprising a reference buffer and a difference buffer for separating the second formatted bit stream into a second encoded bit stream, a second skip flag and a second type flag and for reconstructing a fifth processing block from at least one of the second encoded bit stream, the reference buffer and the difference buffer according to the second skip flag and the second type flag; wherein the second processing block resides at the same location in the previous frame as the first processing block in the current frame.
