Signal processing can be broadly defined as the application of analog or digital techniques to improve the utility of a data stream. Analog techniques are applied to a data stream embodied as a time-varying electrical signal. While in the digital domain, the data are represented as an array of numbers. A video signal is represented as a sequence of frames of pixels. There exists vast amount of redundant information that can be eliminated with video compression technology. So that its transmission and storage becomes more efficient. Video and image compression is a complex and extensive...
