Accurate Rate Control by Using Two Rate-distortion Models

Accurate rate control is a key technology for efficient video coding and transmission.In view of the drawbacks of existing rate control algorithms,a novel idea that implements rate control by using two rate-distortion models is introduced to enhance the rate-control precision.And a new double model based rate-control algorithm is proposed by adapting the G012 framework of H.264 standard.Experiments are conducted and the results reveal that,compared with the original G012 algorithm,the proposed algorithm can efficiently enhance the rate-control precision without deteriorating the reconstructed video quality.
