Patent number: 7221761Abstract: A method and an apparatus for error resilient, digital image scrambling are disclosed. Error resilience scrambling is produced by shuffling transform coefficients between arrays of coefficients arranged along an axis substantially orthogonal to the axis along which packetization of the coefficients proceeds. Scrambling transform coefficients requires a reasonable level of processing resources and has minimal impact on the efficiency of the compression process. Shuffling can be performed in a number of ways to provide good access security and a variety of security. Scrambling the image data in a direction substantially orthogonal to the direction of packetization of the transform coefficients distributes any transmission error in the image reducing the effects of data error or loss on the displayed image.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2000Date of Patent: May 22, 2007Assignee: Sharp Laboratories of America, Inc.Inventors: Sachin Deshpande, Wenjun Zeng

Patent number: 6859536Abstract: A video-signal output apparatus performs scrambling, and a video-signal input apparatus performs descrambling. The scrambling and the descrambling are performed so that signal lines are shifted for each period corresponding to one horizontal scanning interval of analog component video signals which corresponds to a horizontal scanning period or for each period which is n times one horizontal scanning period (where n represents a natural number not less than 2). The signal lines are also shifted with timing in a horizontal blanking period of the analog component video signals.
