  • Patent number: 11425381
    Abstract: A coefficient conversion unit obtains a conversion coefficient for each image region by performing coefficient conversion for each image region. A luminance distribution extraction unit generates luminance distribution information indicating a luminance of each image region. A correction coefficient determination unit determines a correction coefficient based on the luminance distribution information for each image region. A quantization width correction unit obtains a corrected quantization width for each image region by correcting a quantization width with use of a correction coefficient of an image region for each image region. A scalar quantization unit obtains a quantized conversion coefficient for each image region by quantizing a conversion coefficient of an image region with use of a corrected quantization width for each image region.

  • Patent number: 11115058
    Abstract: In a coding device (20), a first coding unit (21) generates a parity of an RS code by coding, based on the RS code, each first data sequence existing in a direction different from a row direction of input data, and generates coded data by attaching the parity of the RS code to each first data sequence, thereby consequently expanding a matrix. A second coding unit (22) generates a parity of a BCH code and a parity of an LDPC code by coding, based on the BCH code and the LDPC code, each second data sequence existing in a row direction of the coded data, and generates a plurality of DVB-S2 frames (13) including, per DVB-S2 frame (13), one data sequence existing in the row direction of the coded data, the corresponding parity of the BCH code, and the corresponding parity of the LDPC code.
