Abstract

MPEG-2 test stream for evaluating the static picture quality of digital television (DTV) should meet both good picture quality and stable bit rate. In this paper, we present a method for generating a high quality test stream to evaluate the static picture quality in DTV receiver. The proposed method is suitable for encoding the static test pattern, such as multiburst and Crosshatch, and is based on used-defined quantization and adaptive zero stuffing algorithm. The used-defined quantization is suitable for minimizing the quantization error, which is the reason of degradation of picture quality, and the adaptive zero stuffing algorithm is used to solve the overflow of video buffer verifier (VBV) buffer while encoding process by MPEG-2 encoder. Experimental results show that the average PSNR and the bit rate of the proposed method have more efficient and stable than those of the conventional cases.
