The latest video compression standard, H.264/AVC st andard has introduced Fidelity Range Extensions (FR Ext) as coding tools to increase the applications areas tow ards high definition video storage and transmission in an efficient manner. This paper describes performance analysis of Fidelity Range Extensions of this stand ard. The three profiles High, High10 and Baseline are compar ed by using reference software JM 15.1. Test video sequences of different environment at various bit rates are u sed to evaluate performance of FRExt. The objective and subjective simulation results show that high profil es of FRExt are more efficient in coding performanc e as compared to baseline H.264/AVC standard.
