Abstract
This paper reports the results of a subjective assessment for stereoscopic HDTV coding using MPEG2 MVP@HL, which is a standard for stereoescopic television coding. The results of assessment for coding images of MVP are compared with those of coding images of simulcast, left and right image of which are each coded using conventional MP@HL. The image quality of MVP coding is almost as same as, or is higher than that of simulcast coding. According to the test of bit allocation to left and right images, an adaptive bit allocation depending on image contents can improve the subjective image quality.
