Abstract

Motion estimation and compensation techniques are widely used in video coding. This paper addresses the problem of the trade-off between the motion and the prediction error information. Under some realistic hypotheses, the transmission cost of these two components can be estimated. Therefore, we obtain a criterion which controls the motion estimation process in order to optimize its performance. As a particular application, this criterion is applied to the split procedure of an adaptive multigrid block matching technique. Simulation results are presented, showing the significant improvements due to the method.
