Description

与不可伸缩解码器兼容的可伸缩视频编码/解码方法、系统
对其它申请的交叉参考 
本申请要求于2006年3月16日提交的U.S.临时专利申请号为No.60/782,807(Attorney Docket No.P4226USP1)的名称为“与不可伸缩解码器兼容的可伸缩(scalable)视频编码/多路技术(multiplexing)”的申请的优先权，其被在此引用作为所有目的的参考；并且要求于2006年3月23日提交的U.S.临时专利申请号为No.60/785,796(Attorney Docket No.P4226USP2)的名称为“与不可伸缩解码器兼容的可伸缩视频编码/多路技术”的申请的优先权，其被在此引用作为所有目的的参考。 
背景技术
在可伸缩视频编码/多路技术方案中，希望所谓的基层与不可伸缩的视频编码标准，如H.264，相兼容。还希望附加的可伸缩层的任意多路技术以这样的方式被执行，即不知道可伸缩性的不可伸缩视频解码器将忽略所有可伸缩层并且仅仅解码所述基层。 
附图说明
在下面的详细描述和附图中公开了本发明的多种实施例。 
附图1是示例了用于可伸缩视频编码的编解码器实施例的模块图。 
附图2是示例了一编解码器的实施例的模块图，该编解码器包含配置成用于解码兼容的可伸缩视频流的基层的不可伸缩视频解码器。 
附图3是示例了一网络网关实施例的模块图，该网关配置成至少部分地基于目的地是否包含可伸缩或不可伸缩的解码器来路由视频数据包。 
具体实施方式
本发明可以以多种方式实现，包括例如处理方法、装置、系统、构成材料、计算机可读媒体(例如计算机可读存储媒体或者通过光纤或电子通信连接传输 程序的计算机网络)。在本说明书中，这些应用或者本发明可以呈现的任何其它形式可以是指技术。例如处理器或存储器的被描述为配置成执行任务的组件包括被临时配置为在一给定的时间执行所述任务的通用组件或者被生产用于执行所述任务的特定组件。通常，所公开的过程的步骤顺序可以在本发明的精神范围内进行改变。 
下面，伴随示例本发明规则的附图，提供了本发明的一个或多个实施例的具体实施方式。本发明联系这样实施例进行描述，并且本发明不限制于任何的实施例。本发明的范围仅仅由权利要求进行限定并且本发明包括多种变动、修改和等同物。下面的描述中阐明了多种特定细节以提供对本发明的完整理解。这些细节被提供作为示例的目的并且不需要一些或所有这些特定细节本发明就可以根据权利要求进行实现。为了清楚的目的，在与本发明相关的技术领域中已知的技术材料没有进行详细的描述，因此本发明没有不清楚。 
附图1是示例了用于可伸缩视频编码的编解码器实施例的模块图。在一些实施例中，在可伸缩视频编码/多路技术方案中，所述基层通过为所述基层指定所有必须的可伸缩性参数(例如，优先权id，依赖id、临时级别id等)的默认值，来与不可伸缩视频编码标准兼容。对于所述基层，可伸缩解码器(如，附图1中的所述基层解码器)被配置为对所述基层使用对于所述可伸缩性参数的所述默认值，来代替被传输的可伸缩性参数，使其不必为基层数据传输可伸缩性参数。通过这种方式，所述基层可以以所有的方式依附于所述不可伸缩标准，并且不必在所述基层数据中传输任何可伸缩参数。所述基层数据可以由不可伸缩解码器直接地使用而不必进行去除、过滤、丢弃、忽略或者如果不被传输的可伸缩性参数数据进行模糊化就不使用。 
附图2是示例一编解码器实施例的模块图，该编解码器包括配置为用于解码兼容的可伸缩视频流的基层的不可伸缩视频解码器。在一些实施例中，不知道可伸缩性的不可伸缩视频解码器能够忽略所有可伸缩层并且通过标识数据包仅仅解码所述基层，所述数据包被称为NAL单元或者在H.264视频编码标准中的NALUs，其不与所述基层关联，其中所述基层具有不可伸缩解码器知道去丢弃的值。在一些实施例中，不可伸缩的H.264解码器，例如附图2中的不可伸缩解码器，被配置为仅仅用于解码具有在不可伸缩的H.264标准中定义的nal_unit_type语法元素值的NALUs以及用于忽略(例如，不进行解码或尝试 进行解码的丢弃)具有在所述不可伸缩的H.264标准中没有定义的nal_unit_type语法元素值的NALUs。 
附图3是示例了一网络网关实施例的模块图，该网关配置成至少部分地基于目的地是否包含可伸缩或不可伸缩的解码器来路由视频数据包。在一些实施例中，网络网关或者其它网络节点，例如附图3中所述的网络网关，被配置为用于路由一些NALUs到一些目的地以及路由其它NALUs到其它目的地。例如，如果一些目的地仅仅包含不可伸缩解码器(例如，那些与附图3中第一边缘路由器关联的)，那么在一些实施例中所述网关或者其它节点仅仅将具有在所述不可伸缩的H.264标准中定义的nal_unit_type语法元素值的NALUs路由给它们。使用这种方法，网络资源和/或带宽不用发送不被这种解码器使用的NALUs到不可伸缩解码器。 
在一些可伸缩视频流中可能具有多于一个的层符合所述不可伸缩标准，并且在这种情况中希望为解码器和/或网关标识这种层。 
这样，在一些实施例中，根据所述不可伸缩层的特定特性对每个不可伸缩层指定不同的默认可伸缩性参数。例如，在H.264中所述默认可伸缩性参数可以依赖于所述不可伸缩层的序列参数集合或图片参数集合。这使得所述可伸缩解码器利用任意的所述不可伸缩层作为它的基层。 
在一些实施例中，在一些或所有所述不可伸缩视频NALUs之前插入特定的NALU。所述特定的NALU指示随后的NALU属于可伸缩层次中的一个层，但是它的编码与所述不可伸缩标准兼容。所述特定NALU还可以包含属于随后兼容的NALU(如，优先权id、依赖id、临时级别id等)的可伸缩性数据。 
不可伸缩视频解码器将忽略所述特定的NALU并且选择一个可用的不可伸缩层来进行解码和显示。例如，所述选择将基于所述不可伸缩层的简档(profile)和级别或图片大小。或者其也可能由包含在，例如，如mp4的文件格式中的一些其它选择机制来实现。网关可以使用在所述特定NALU中的数据来作出路由决定，或者其可以使用相似于上面描述的解码器能够使用的机制。 
在一些实施例中，所述符合不可伸缩标准的视频数据被包含在可伸缩NALUs中，但是是以一种容易被不可伸缩解码器提取使用的形式。例如，在一些实施例中所述可伸缩性数据包含在所述可伸缩NALUs的前面。网关或预处理器去除所述可伸缩性数据，把所述nal_unit_type语法元素值变成不可伸缩值， 并将所述结果发送到一个或多个不可伸缩解码器。 
在一些实施例中，符合所述不可伸缩标准的所述视频数据被包含在具有特定nal_unit_type语法元素值或者其它语法元素值的可伸缩NALUs中，所述语法元素值将所述视频数据标识为以不可伸缩的形式被编码。在不同的实施例中，可伸缩性数据包含在这些NALUs的前面或者包含在所述NALUs中的另一预定位置。网关或预处理器去除所述可伸缩性数据，将所述nal_unit_type语法元素改变为不可伸缩值，并且将所述结果发送给一个或多个不可伸缩解码器。 
在一些可伸缩视频流中可能具有一些层，它们自身不符合所述不可伸缩标准，但是当其与其它层联合时就符合所述标准。为了清楚的目的，我们称这些层为从属不可伸缩层。例如，具有临时可伸缩性的所述基层可以符合所述不可伸缩标准，但是所述从属不可伸缩层它们自身并不符合。然而，当所述从属不可伸缩层与所述基层正确联合时，所述总体结果符合所述不可伸缩标准并且能被不可伸缩解码器解码。 
在一些实施例中，所述从属不可伸缩层被标识，这样它们可以容易地被可伸缩解码器、预处理器和/或网关所识别。在一些实施例中，这通过在所述从属不可伸缩层NALUs之前插入特定的NALU来实现。这些特定的NALUs具有nal_unit_type语法元素值或者标识所述从属不可伸缩层的其它语法元素值。所述从属不可伸缩层NALUs具有符合所述不可伸缩标准的nal_unit_type语法元素值。然后网关可以使用在所述特定NALUs中的数据来作出它的路由决定。它可以仅仅将所述基层发送到一些不可伸缩解码器，所述基层将一些或所有从属不可伸缩层加到其它不可伸缩解码器上，以及将一些或所有层加到可伸缩解码器上。 
在一些实施例中，所述从属不可伸缩层的视频数据被包含在可伸缩的NALUs中，但是是以一种容易被不可伸缩解码器提取使用的形式。例如，在一些实施例中所述可伸缩性数据包含在所述可伸缩NALUs的前面。网关或预处理器去除所述可伸缩性数据，将nal_unit_type语法元素值变为不可伸缩值，并且将所述结果发送到不可伸缩解码器。 
虽然前面所述的实施例为了能清楚地理解的目的描述了一些细节，但是本发明并不限制于所提供的细节。其具有许多可变的方式来实现本发明。所述公开的实施例是示例性的而不是限制性的。
