  • Method of motion vector prediction and system thereof
    Publication number: 20040141555
    Abstract: A first set of motion vectors associated with a first frame of video data is determined. A second set of motion vectors associated with a second frame of video data is also determined. A motion vector for a pixel set associated with the second frame of video data is predicted based upon the first set of motion vectors and the second set of motion vectors. In one embodiment, the first frame of video data is a frame of pixel data that was encoded prior to the second frame. The first frame may also be a frame to be displayed prior to the second frame of video data.
