Abstract

This disclosure relates to video coding and more particularly to techniques for performing deblocking of reconstructed video data. According to an aspect of an invention, a maximum filter length is determined based on whether a P-block or a Q-block has an edge which is perpendicular to a deblocking boundary and whose size is greater than or equal to 32.

Claims (38)

1. A method of filtering reconstructed video data, the method comprising:

receiving an array of reconstructed luma samples including a P-block and a Q-block that are both adjacent to an intra sub-partitions (ISP) edge;

determining whether a first size of an edge of one of the P-block and the Q-block is greater than or equal to 32, wherein the edge of the one of the P-block and the Q-block is perpendicular to the ISP edge;

determining a first maximum filter length based on the determination of whether the first size is greater than or equal to 32; and

deblocking the array of the reconstructed luma samples based on the determined first maximum filter length.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first maximum filter length is determined to be equal to 7 for the one of the P-block and the Q-block when the first size is greater than or equal to 32.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first maximum filter length is determined to be equal to 3 for the one of the P-block and the Q-block when the first size is less than 32.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the P-block and the Q-block is a transform block.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining whether a second size of an edge of the other one of the P-block and the Q-block is greater than or equal to 32, wherein the edge of the other one of the P-block and the Q-block is perpendicular to the ISP edge;

determining a second maximum filter length based on the determination of whether the second size is greater than or equal to 32; and

deblocking the array of the reconstructed luma samples based on the determined first maximum filter length and the determined second maximum filter length.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving an ISP mode flag for the array of the reconstructed luma samples;

receiving an ISP split flag for the array of the reconstructed luma samples when the ISP mode flag specifies that the array of the reconstructed luma samples is partitioned into the P-block and the Q-block; and

determining an edge type of the ISP edge based on the ISP edge split flag.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein:

the first size is a width of the one of the P-block and the Q-block when the edge type is a vertical direction; and

the first size is a height of the one of the P-block and the Q-block when the edge type is a horizontal direction.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the ISP edge is one of a plurality of candidate deblocking boundaries.

9. A device for filtering reconstructed video data, the device comprising one or more processors configured to:

receive an array of reconstructed luma samples including a P-block and a Q-block that are both adjacent to an intra sub-partitions (ISP) edge;

determine whether a first size of an edge of one of the P-block and the Q-block is greater than or equal to 32, wherein the edge of the one of the P-block and the Q-block is perpendicular to the ISP edge;

determine a first maximum filter length based on the determination of whether the first size is greater than or equal to 32; and

deblock the array of the reconstructed luma samples based on the determined first maximum filter length.

10. The device of claim 9 , wherein the first maximum filter length is determined to be equal to 7 for the one of the P-block and the Q-block when the first size is greater than or equal to 32.

11. The device of claim 9 , wherein the first maximum filter length is determined to be equal to 3 for the one of the P-block and the Q-block when the first size is less than 32.

12. The device of claim 9 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

determine whether a second size of an edge of the other one of the P-block and the Q-block is greater than or equal to 32, wherein the edge of the other one of the P-block and the Q-block is perpendicular to the ISP edge;

determine a second maximum filter length based on the determination of whether the second size is greater than or equal to 32; and

deblock the array of the reconstructed luma samples based on the determined first maximum filter length and the determined second maximum filter length.

13. The device of claim 9 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

receive an ISP mode flag for the array of the reconstructed luma samples;

receive an ISP split flag for the array of the reconstructed luma samples when the ISP mode flag specifies that the array of the reconstructed luma samples is partitioned into the P-block and the Q-block; and

determine an edge type of the ISP edge based on the ISP edge split flag.

14. The device of claim 13 , wherein:

the first size is a width of the one of the P-block and the Q-block when the edge type is a vertical direction; and

the first size is a height of the one of the P-block and the Q-block when the edge type is a horizontal direction.
