- Abstract
- Three-dimensional (3-D) subband coding as a video compression system is particularly well suited for use where inexpensive, simple encoders are needed. Program production or teleconferencing are good examples. Since the system uses octave-width bands, it is inherently scalable. Real-time programmable hardware has been built to process video at various bit rates using this technique, and the results of these tests are discussed.

bio
William E. Glenn is director of the Imaging Systems Laboratory at Florida Atlantic University (FAU) in Boca Raton, Fla. The laboratory specializes in advanced high-resolution television technology. Previously Dr. Glenn served as director of the New York Institute of Technology (NYIT) Science and Technology Research Center in Dania, Fla., and from 1967 to 1979 he was at CBS Laboratories as vice-president and director of research. Prior to that time, he was a member of GE's research staff, where he invented and developed the experimental prototype of the GE Talaria light valve projector and the thermoplastic recording process. Other technical accomplishments include the Emmy Award-winning digital noise reducer, a high-resolution medical ultrasonic scanner, and numerous developments in the field of high-resolution television cameras, transmission systems, and displays. He has been granted 110 U.S. patents. Dr. Glenn holds a B.E.E. degree from the Georgia Institute of Technology, and a M.S. and Ph.D. in electrical engineering from the University of California at Berkeley. A Fellow of the Society, he has been recognized with several of its awards. In 1987 he received the Journal Award for a paper he co-authored with his late wife, Dr. Karen Glenn. In 1989 he was the recipient of the David Sarnoff Gold Medal and, in 1992, the Agfa-Gevaert Gold Medal Award.John MarcinkaCommunications Technology Center, Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton, FL 33431.bio
John W. Marcinka is senior project manager at the Imaging Systems Laboratory at FAU, where he is currently working on a progressive-scan high-definition color camera. As the senior project engineer at NYIT, he designed both analog and digital circuitry and supervised the development and construction of several high-resolution real-time systems, including the high-resolution ultrasound scanner leading to the cardiovascular ultrasonic system, the ultrasonic digitizer table, a multifocus high-resolution nondestructive testing system, and an HDTV-compatible bandwidth reduction transmission system. As the project engineer at CBS Laboratories in Stamford, Conn., Marcinka designed circuitry and supervised the development, fabrication, and testing for the large-screen television projector, laser scanner, image processing system, and sequential color television system. Previously, at Stelma, Inc., he supervised troubleshooting and testing of preliminary subassemblies and main production instrumentation, and specialized in Armed Forces data telegraph communication devices. Marcinka is a graduate of the Connecticut School of Electronics and the Bridgeport Engineering Institute.Robert DheinCommunications Technology Center, Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton, FL 33431.bio
Robert Dhein is senior engineer, Communications Technology Center, at FAU. He has been involved in the development of state-of-the-art video compression technology with Dr. Glenn since 1978, at both NYIT and FAU. Dhein was the senior engineer on the NASA grant, NAGAW (1992 to present) and is the architect of the CTC compression algorithm and hardware. Dhein holds a B.S.E.E. from Worcester Polytechnic Institute and an M.S.E.E. degree from Johns Hopkins University. He has published several technical papers on video compression technology. - Copyright
