Abstract
A video transmitter compresses an uncompressed 3D video into a base view video and an enhancement view video using MPEG-4 MVC standard. The video transmitter allocates bits to compressed pictures of the uncompressed 3D video based on corresponding picture type. More bits are allocated to I-pictures than P-pictures, and more bits are allocated to P-pictures than B-pictures in a given coding view. More bits are allocated to a compressed picture of the base view video than a same type compressed picture of the enhancement view video. The correlation level between the base view video and the enhancement view video is utilized for bit-allocation in video compression. More bits are allocated to a picture in a lower coding layer than to the same type picture in a higher coding layer in a given coding view. Pictures with the same cording order are identified from different view videos for a joint bit-allocation.
