Abstract
A point cloud encoder and point cloud decoder are configured to convert Cartesian coordinates of a point of point cloud data to spherical coordinates. The spherical coordinates include a radius, an azimuth value, and a laser ID. The point cloud encoder and point cloud decoder may perform the conversion for the azimuth value using a fixed-point implementation using a variable shift value based on a number of bits used for coding azimuth.
