Annex F
(normative)
Default YCC encoding transformation for a
standard luma-chroma-chroma colour space: sYCC
The method of digitization in this annex is designed to complement current sRGB-based colour
management strategies by explicitly standardizing a default transformation between sRGB and
a standard luma-chroma-chroma colour space (sYCC). Application and hardware developers
who want to support various colour compression schemes based on luma-chroma-chroma
spaces can utilize this annex. Since this sYCC colour space is a simple extension of the sRGB
colour space as defined in this standard, the same reference conditions are shared by both
colour spaces.
F.1 General
The encoding transformations between sYCC values and CIE 1931 XYZ values provide
unambiguous methods to represent optimum image colorimetry when viewed on a hypothetical
reference display that is capable of producing all colours defined by sYCC encoding, in the
reference viewing conditions by the reference observer. Non-linear floating point sR′G′B′
represent the appearance of the image as displayed on the reference display in the reference
viewing condition described in Clause 4 of this standard.
F.2 Transformation from sYCC values ( Y , Cb , Cr ) to CIE 1931 XYZ

The non-linear sY′C ′C′ values can be computed using the following relationship:

sYCC sYCC
′ (F.1)
Cb =()Cb − Offset Range
sYCC sYCC
Cr′ =()Cr − Offset Range
sYCC sYCC
For 24-bit encoding (8-bit/channel), WDC = 255, KDC = 0, Range = 255, and Offset = 128, and
the relationship is defined as;
′
Y = (Y − 0)()255 − 0 = Y 255

Cb′ =()Cb −128 255 (F.2)
sYCC sYCC

′
Cr =()Cr −128 255
sYCC sYCC
(8)
24-bit encoding (8-bit/channel) shall be the default sYCC encoding bit depth. Other bit depths
may be unsupported for general use.
Where other N-bit/channel encoding is supported ( N > 8), the relationship is defined as;

Annex G
(informative)
Extended gamut encoding for sRGB: bg-sRGB
and its YCC transformation: bg-sYCC
G.1 General
This annex provides equations necessary for extended gamut encoding for sRGB. While the
main body of this standard imply that extended gamut encoding is possible by replacing the
KDC and WDC variables in equations 2 and 11, no clear recommendation is given. This annex
provides such specific recommendations, where for 10 bits, KDC = 384 and WDC = 894
(N −3) (N −9)
(KDC= 3× 2 and WDC= 255× 2 +KDC, for N bits where N > 10). This encoding is
called bg-sRGB, and its YCC transformation is called bg-sYCC.
G.2 Transformation from bg-sRGB values ( R , G , B )
bg-sRGB bg-sRGB bg-sRGB
to CIE 1931 XYZ values
The non-linear floating point sR′G′B′ values can be computed using following relationship
