In this paper, we propose a novel video coding scheme to significantly reduce the coding complexity and enhance overall coding efficiency in videos acquired by high mobility devices such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). In order to reduce the encoded data bits and encoding time to facilitate real-time data transmission, as well as minimize the image distortion caused by the jitter of onboard camera, a sensor-assisted global motion estimation (GMV) algorithm is designed to calculate perspective transformation model and global motion vectors, which are used in both the inter-frame coding to improve the coding efficiency and intra-frame coding to reduce block search complexity. We conducted comprehensive simulation experiments on official HM-16.10 codec and the performance results show the proposed method can achieve faster block search by 50% to 60% speedup and lower bitrate by 15% to 30% compared with standard HEVC coding software.
