Method for coding video by using long-term reference frame

CHINESE PATENT FOR SALE – Method for coding video by using long-term reference frame, electronic equipment and system

his patent introduces a video coding method that uses long-term reference frames (LTRFs) to improve video compression efficiency and quality.

The method operates as follows:

  1. Acquiring a Video Frame
    • The system captures a video frame for processing.
  2. Caching and Marking a Long-Term Reference Frame (LTRF)
    • The video frame is stored and marked as a potential long-term reference frame.
  3. Comparing the Effectiveness of LTRF vs. Short-Term Reference Frames
    • The system checks whether the LTRF is more relevant for encoding than a short-term reference frame.
  4. Encoding with the Best Reference Frame
    • If the LTRF is more relevant, the system uses it for encoding.
    • Otherwise, a short-term reference frame is used.
  5. Sending the Encoded Data to a Decoder
    • The encoded data is transmitted to the decoding terminal.
  6. Receiving Feedback and Updating the LTRF
    • The system updates the active LTRF based on feedback from the decoder.

Key Advantages

  1. Improved Video Compression Efficiency
    • Reduces redundant data transmission, optimizing bandwidth usage.
  2. Higher Video Quality with Lower Bitrate
    • Maintains better visual clarity while reducing file sizes.
  3. Adaptive Encoding Based on Frame Importance
    • Prioritizes important reference frames, ensuring smoother video playback.
  4. Reduced Latency in Video Streaming
    • Enhances real-time video applications such as video conferencing and live streaming.
  5. Optimized for High-Resolution and Low-Bandwidth Scenarios
    • Suitable for 4K, 8K, and mobile streaming, where compression efficiency is critical.

This patent presents an advanced video encoding approach that ensures high-quality streaming while minimizing bandwidth consumption.
