Abstract
A video coder may perform a simplified depth coding (SDC) mode, including simplified residual coding, to code a depth block according to any of a variety of, e.g., at least three, depth intra prediction modes. For example, the video coder may perform the SDC mode for coding a depth block according to depth modeling mode (DMM) 3, DMM 4, or a region boundary chain coding mode. In such examples, the video coder may partition the depth block, and code respective DC residual values for each partition. In some examples, the video coder may perform the SDC mode for coding a depth block according to an intra prediction mode, e.g., an HEVC base specification intra prediction mode, such as a DC intra prediction mode or one of the directional intra prediction modes. In such examples, the video coder may code a single DC residual value for the depth block.
