ALEXANDRIA, Va., March 5 -- United States Patent no. 12,244,833, issued on March 4, was assigned to ARRIS Enterprises LLC (Suwanee, Ga.).

"Re-sampling with phase offset adjustment for luma and chroma to select filters in scalable video coding" was invented by Koohyar Minoo (San Diego), David M. Baylon (San Diego) and Ajay K. Luthra (San Diego).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A sampling filter process is provided for scalable video coding. The process provides for re-sampling using video data obtained from an encoder or decoder process of a base layer (BL) in a multi-layer system using adaptive phase shifting to improve quality in Scalable High efficiency Video Coding (SHVC). In order to compens...
