Tech Paper 2022: The paper presents a neural network-based method to accurately predict mobile device energy usage when playing HDR video, improving battery management over previous approaches.
Abstract
High-end mobile devices now support displaying video in High Dynamic Range (HDR), delivering a significantly enhanced viewing experience over Standard Dynamic Range (SDR). However, more energy may be required to play HDR, impacting device battery life and reducing overall quality of experience.
We present a new methodology for predicting the real-time energy usage of a mobile device playing video content. 37 video clips were encoded into 12 combinations of different resolution, frame-rate, bit-rate, and dynamic range.
