Abstract
High efficiency video coding (HEVC) is the newest video coding standard that can support powerful video compression performance with increased picture resolution for ultrahigh definition (UHD). Compared to the previous standard, HEVC achieved a coding efficiency double with a tremendous increase in encoder computational complexity, making support of commercial applications for UHD video service difficult. Especially, optimized HEVC encoder for UHD is expected to be deployed as a key technology for an emerging smart surveillance system in Internet of Things environment. Single-instruction-multiple-data implementation on an Intel x86 processor and several fast encoding schemes were investigated for the complexity reduction of the HEVC reference model (HM) encoder. Fast encoding schemes included early termination processes and data-level parallel processing. The computational complexity of the proposed HEVC encoder was decreased by approximately 192 times compared with HM encoder with an acceptable coding loss.
