This paper presents a complexity analysis of 3D High Efficiency Video Coding (3D-HEVC) depth maps intra prediction. The 3D-HEVC inserts new coding tools in depth maps intra prediction such as Depth Intra Skip (DIS), Depth Modeling Modes (DMMs) and Segment-wise DC (SDC). Therefore, it is important to understand the complexity of each module to allow the design of new complexity reduction techniques to encode the depth maps. This paper aims to guide other works to the most time-consuming tools that could be simplified to achieve a real-time design according to the encoding context.
