Performance comparison of H.264 and H.265 encoders for 4K video sequences

With the growing demand for ultra-high definition in television industry, 4K Ultra HD technology is increasingly becoming the focus of attention. Currently, the two techniques that are most commonly used in coding 4K Ultra HD signals are H.264 encoding and HEVC encoding. This paper uses the two ways to code different 4K sequences, and gets the conclusion by analysing and comparing the encoding performances of H.264 and H.265.
