Overview of the multiview high efficiency video coding (MV-HEVC) standard
This paper reviews the multiview extension (MV-HEVC) of the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard. MV-HEVC is capable of multiview video coding with or without accompanying depth views. The key design concepts and design elements of MV-HEVC are described in the paper. Furthermore, the features and characteristics of MV-HEVC compared to other standardized video codec extensions for three-dimensional (3D) video coding are reviewed.
