A system including a binarization module, a prediction module, and a shifting module. The encoding module is configured to encode symbols using context-adaptive binary arithmetic coding, in which the symbols are generated by binarizing a syntax element. The prediction module is configured to generate a prediction for a number of renormalizations to be performed to renormalize an interval range when encoding one of the symbols. The shifting module is configured to generate a renormalized interval range by shifting the binarized syntax element R times, where R is a number of leading zeros before a 1 in the binarized syntax element. The encoding module is configured to encode a next symbol following the one of the symbols based on the renormalized interval range.

Context-based adaptive binary arithmetic coding engine

A system including a binarization module, an encoding module, and a prediction module. The binarization module is configured to binarize a syntax element and to generate symbols. The encoding module is configured to encode the symbols using context-adaptive binary arithmetic coding (CABAC). The prediction module is configured to generate a prediction for a number of renormalizations to be performed to renormalize an interval range when encoding one of the symbols. The encoding module encodes a next symbol following the one of the symbols based on the prediction before renormalization of the interval range is actually completed.
