supported by MPEG-2 Main Profile is utilized in MPEG-2 MVP. That is, a view
is encoded as the base layer, and the other one is encoded as the enhancement
layer. The frames in the enhancement layer are additionally predicted via Disparity
Estimation (DE). The process of DE is similar to ME. The only difference is that
DE searches for the best matching block in the neighboring views at the same time
slot. On the contrary, ME searches for the best matching block in the preceding or
