Abstract

In this paper, we review the recent advances in rate control techniques for video coding. The rate control algorithms recommended in the video coding standards are briefly described and analyzed. Recent advances, such as new concepts in rate-distortion modelling and quality constrained control, are presented. With these techniques, the rate control performance can be improved. The paper not only summarizes these recent rate control techniques but also provides explicit directions for future rate control algorithm design.
