  • Publication number: 20240163466
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a video decoding method and apparatus and a video encoding method and apparatus. Coding decision information of a representative channel of a target block is shared as coding decision information of a target channel of the target block, and decoding of the target block is performed using the coding decision information of the target channel. Since the coding decision information of the representative channel is shared with an additional channel, repeated signaling of identical coding decision information may be prevented. By means of this prevention, the efficiency of encoding and decoding of the target block or the like may be improved.

  • Publication number: 20240134114
    Abstract: A dispersion-compensation microstructure fiber uses pure silica glass as the background material. It includes the core, the first-type defects, the second-type defects and the cladding. The air holes in the fiber cross section are arranged in the equilateral triangle lattice with the same adjacent air-hole to air-hole spacing. The core is formed by omitting 1 air hole. The first-type defects are formed by the 6 air holes locating at the vertices of hexagonal third-layer porous structure surrounding the core and their surrounding background material. The second-type defects are formed by the air holes in the first air-hole layer surrounding each first-type defect and their surrounding background material. The second-type defects act as the porous structure to surround the first-type defects and the fundamental defect modes, and can also combine with the first-type defects to act as the core of the second-order defect modes.
