Abstract: Multi-layer extension is based on single-layer design of High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard and employed as the common structure for scalability and multi-view video coding extensions of HEVC. In this paper, an overview of multi-layer extension is presented. The concepts and advantages of multi-layer extension are briefly described. High level syntax (HLS) for multi-layer extension and several new designs are also detailed.
