基于多条带HEVC并行编码器的负载均衡算法
Load Balancing Algorithm Based on Multiple HEVC Parallel Encoder
摘要
Abstract
In this paper, a load balancing algorithm based on multi-band HEVC parallel encoder is proposed to solve the problem of load imbalance in HEVC parallel video encoder with uniform strip division. By analyzing the relationship between the encoding efficiency and several encoding parameters, such as the GOP, the quantization parameter and the number of reference frames, an Encoding Time Prediction Mode(l ETPM)is proposed for the Coding Tree Units(CTU). And based on the proposed model, a load-balancing algorithm is further proposed for multi-slice HEVC parallel encoder. This algorithm uses both the previously coded frame on the same temporal layer and the located previously coded frame, and based on the actual encoding parameters, this paper predicts every CTU’s encoding time of the current frame. Then, the load balancing operation of the parallel encoder is carried out based on that. Experimental results show that the pro-posed method can improve the acceleration ratio of about 9.23% compared with the existing uniform strip division method, and the performance loss of the coding is almost negligible.关键词
