A single-pass Variable Bit Rate(VBR) rate control strategy is given based on the frame layer for AVS encoding application. This paper allocates bit rate by utilizing the complexity forecast of the GOP layer. It uses the CBR strategy for the frames in the GOP, combines the characteristic of R-D optimizes in AVS and usesa rate distortion model which is accurate but simple to get the quantification parameter. The experimental results show that compared to JVT-H017 in JVT, the method can control the rate accurately, and the computation of the algorithm is lower, moreover, the average luminance PSNR of all testing sequences is improved by about 0.2 dB, and the sample variance of luminance PSNR is about 40% of the JVT-H017 method, which shows the consistency of quality also enhanced greatly.
