Abstract
In order to efficiently transmit video data while satisfying the channel bandwidth and transmission delay constraints, bit rate control of the video encoding process is required. According to ultra-high-definition video, traditional coding algorithms have a large amount of caculation and high computational complexity, thus, parallel coding methods such as inter-frame parallel coding and wavefront parallel coding (WPP) are proposed. However, the rate control of parallel coding is a difficult problem, especially the intra-frame rate control under the WPP coding mode, so this paper proposes a bit rate control algorithm within macro-block layer. By contrasting the PSNR, the encoding speed and the VBV (Video Buffer Verifier) buffer condition of the video sequences, the algorithm proposed in this paper has advantages of less computing cost and faster coding speed than the traditional algorithms.
