Summary

This paper presents computational complexity analysis of adaptive arithmetic coding (CABAC) in the emerging HEVC video compression technology. In particular, computational complexity of individual parts of CABAC (and the whole CABAC entropy codec in the HEVC video decoder) was measured from the point of view of video decoder side. Experiments were done using publically available HM reference software of the HEVC video codec and a set of test video sequences. The range of bitrates that can be processed in real time by CABAC entropy decoder were also evaluated for the considered in the paper implementation of CABAC.
