Abstract

This paper presents a new low complexity integer 4×4 transform and quantization. The new 4×4 transform is more approximate to discrete cosine transform (DCT) matrix than the transform in H.264. Moreover, the transform can be calculated without multiplication, just additions and shifts, in 16-bit arithmetic, thus minimizing computational complexity. The quantization can match the distribution of coefficients better than that in H.264. Simulation results reveal a performance increasing up to 1.87% bit rate savings and 0.1 dB in peak signal-to-noise ratio.
