Abstract
As the MPEG streaming traffics are transmitted over the Internet, MPEG packet losses cause error propagation in both spatial and temporal domains which in turn leads to severe degradation in image quality. This image degradation is become worse by the bursty packet loss at the network. In this paper, we propose a new error spreading method to reduce the effects of bursty packet losses over the Internet. The proposed error spreading method spreads out the not utilize packet losses widely, and can be used for videocasting and video-broadcasting that do not utilize the ARQ method. The proposed method can not only reduce the consecutive losses of image blocks, but also improve the performance of error concealment. Experimental results show that the deterioration of MPEG video quality can be reduced by spreading out the MPEG packet losses.
