움직임 보상-이산 코사인 변환 (motion compensation-discrete cosine transform : MC-DCT) 기반의 동영상 부호화 기법이 부호화 효율성 및 구현의 단순성으로 인해 널리 사용되고 있으나, 에러 환경에서 구조적으로 취약한 면이 있다. 본 논문에서는 다중 메모리 움직임 보상 예측 (long-term memory motion compensated prediction : LTMP) 기반의 다중 레프런스 프레임을 사용하여 에러에 강인한 동영상 부호화 기법을 제안한다. 또한 제안하는 알고리듬에 기반한 에러 은닉 기법 (error concealment : EC)을 구현한다. 즉, R-D (rate-distortion) 최적화에 프레임간 움직임 벡터 (temporal motion vectors)의 확산 인자를 추가하여 에러에 대한 강인성 및 에러 은닉 기법의 효율성을 증가시켰다. 또한, 제안하는 알고리듬은 시간축상의 에러 전파를 피드백 정보 (negative acknowledgement : NAK)를 사용하여 억제한다. 즉, NAK는 채널 에러에 의해 손실된 영역과 에러가 전파된 영역을 추정하여 움직임 보상 영역에서 제외되도록 하는데 이용된다. 따라서, 제안하는 알고리듬은 PSNR 측면에서 FIU (forced intra update)에 근사하는 성능을 보이나, FIU와는 달리 비트율의 증가를 피할 수 있어 제한된 대역폭의 네트웍을 효율적으로 사용할 수 있다. 컴퓨터 모의 실험을 통해 제안하는 알고리듬이 기존의 H.263 및 LTMP 기반의 부호기에 비해 에러 환경에서 주관적 및 객관적 화질 측면에서 성능이 우수함을 보인다.

We investigated the polarization-mode dispersion (PMD) tolerance for 40Gb/s non-return to zero (NRZ), duobinary NRZ, return to zero (RZ), carrier-suppressed RZ (CS-RZ), and duobinary-carrier-suppressed RZ (DCS-RZ) modulation formats with a forward error correction (FEC) coding. The power penalty has been calculated as a measure of the system performance due to PMD. After comparison of the PMD tolerance of various modulation formats, our results suggest that RZ signals have the best tolerance against the effect of first-order PMD only. The duobinary NRZ modulation format is most resilient to PMD when both first- and second-order PMD are considered. However, the duobinary NRZ modulation format is the most sensitive to the incident angle of the input signal to a fiber axis in the presence of first- and second-order PMD, leading to incident angle-dependent power penalty. The coding gain by FEC can cope with the power penalties induced by first- and second-order PMD up to a DGD value of 16ps.

Recent advances in forward error correction (FEC) coding techniques were focused on addressing the challenges of multicast and broadcast delivery. However, FEC approaches can also be used for unicast content delivery in order to solve transmission control protocol issues found in wireless networks. In this paper, we exploit the error resilient properties of Raptor codes by proposing Raptor-based content delivery protocol (RCDP) - a novel solution for reliable and bidirectional unicast communication in lossy links that can improve content delivery in situations where the wireless network is the bottleneck. RCDP has been designed, validated, optimized, and its performance has been analyzed in terms of throughput and resource efficiency. Experimental results show that RCDP is a highly efficient solution for environments characterized by high delays and packet losses making it very suitable for intelligent transport system oriented applications since it achieves significant performance improvements when compared to traditional transport layer protocols.

Error concealment plays an important role in combating transmission errors. Methods of error concealment which produce better quality are generally of higher complexity, thus making some of the more sophisticated algorithms is not suitable for real-time applications. In this paper, we develop temporal and spatial error resilient video encoding and data hiding approach to facilitate the error concealment at the decoder. Block interleaving scheme is introduced to isolate erroneous blocks caused by packet losses for spatial area of error resilience. For temporal area of error resilience, data hiding is applied to the transmission of parity bits to protect motion vectors. To do error concealment quickly, a set of edge features extracted from a block is embedded imperceptibly using data hiding into the host media and transmitted to decoder. If some part of the media data is damaged during transmission, the embedded features are used for concealment of lost data at decoder. This method decreases a complexity of error concealment by reducing the estimation process of lost data from neighbor blocks. The proposed data hiding method of parity bits and block features is not influence much to the complexity of standard encoder. Experimental results show that proposed method conceals properly and effectively burst errors occurred on transmission channel like Internet.

In this paper we propose several mapping schemes for streaming video generated by state-of-the-art H.264 codec over IEEE 802.11e enabled wireless LANs. The schemes take advantage of both 802.11e's QoS mechanism and some novel features of the H.264 codec, so as to protect the most important information in terms of visual quality and reduce distortion under network congestion. The proposed methods are evaluated by means of the H.264 reference software codec, network simulation, and objective video quality measurements. Results show that the proposed methods achieve a robust and error resilient H.264 video streaming over wireless LANs than traditional best-effort streaming.

We propose a now watermarking scheme that can be used to embed multiple bits and also resilient to geometrical transforms such as scaling, rotation, and cropping, based on off - axis holographic watermark that allows multiple watermark recovery without original content(cover image). The holographic watermark is that Fourier transformed digital hologram is embedded into cover image in the spatial domain. The proposed method has not only increased robustness with a stronger embedding but also imprescriptibility of the watermark in the evaluation process. To compare with the convention기 scheme, the spread spectrum, we embedded and recovered maximum 1,024 bits that consist of binary number over PSNR(peak signal-to-noise ratio) 39dB. And also, we computed robustness with BER(bit error rate) corresponding the above attack

압축한 비디오데이타를 네트워크으로 전송 시 채널이 불안정한 경우 패킷이 분실될 우려가 있다. 패킷 분실은 대부분 버스트오류로 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 디코더에서 버스트오류를 효과적으로 은닉, 처리하는 방법으로 오류 내성 비디오 인코딩 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위해 공간적 오류은닉법으로 오류 패킷 분실을 야기시키는 손실 블록을 분리하는데 효과적인 블록 인터리빙을 적용한다. 시간적 오류 은닉에 대해서는 연속적인 내부프레임 또는 프레임간에 움직임벡터의 프레임간 패리티 비트를 삽입하는 구조를 적용한다. 비디오 인코딩 단계를 거쳐 디코더에서 수신한 블록들에 대해서는 쌍선형 보간법을 적용하여 전송시 발생한 국지적 오류를 적절하게 은닉 처리한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 인코딩 방법을 전송 블록에 부가 데이터로 포함하는 것은 표준 엔코더의 복잡도에 거의 영향을 미치지 않는다.

The Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) is a ground-based aircraft navigation system and is considered as an infrastructure that ensures resilient aircraft navigation capability during the event of a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) outage. The main problem of DME as a GNSS back up is a poor positioning accuracy that often reaches over 100 m. In this paper, a novel approach of applying deep reinforcement learning to a DME pulse design is introduced to improve the DME distance measuring accuracy. This method is designed to develop multipath-resistant DME pulses that comply with current DME specifications. In the research, a Markov Decision Process (MDP) for DME pulse design is set using pulse shape requirements and a timing error. Based on the designed MDP, we created an Environment called PulseEnv, which allows the agent representing a DME pulse shape to explore continuous space using the Soft Actor Critical (SAC) reinforcement learning algorithm.

We propose an algorithm for the robust transmission of video in error prone environment based on multiple description (MD) scheme and simple rate-distortion operators. The redundancy rate-distortion (RRD) criteria is used to split a one-layer compressed video stream into two correlated descriptions. The proposed algorithm can find more candidate points on the RRD curve than the conventional RRD based methods. A new distortion measure is also defined in this paper, which considers more realistic error environments. Since the proposed MD video coder is based on the standard H.263 coder, each description can be decoded independently by the standard H.263 decoder. Also, several descriptions can be decoded into a single stream by additional merge stage and the H.263 decoder. Simulation results show that the proposed MD video coder yields better performance than the conventional MD splitting algorithm at all bitrates both in single and two description cases.

Although the needs for providing resilient PNT information are increasing, threats due to the intentional RFI or space weather change are challenging to resolve. eLoran, which is a terrestrial navigation system that use a high-power signal is considered as a best back-up navigation system. Depending on the user's environment in the eLoran system, the user may use one of E-field or H-field antennas. H-field antenna, which has no restriction on setting stable ground and is relatively resistant to noise of general electronic equipment, is composed of two loops, and shows anisotropic gain pattern due to the different measurement at the two loops. Therefore, the H-field antenna's phase estimation value of signal varies depending on its direction even at the static environment. The error due to the direction of the signal should be eliminated if the user want to estimate the own position more precisely. In this paper, a method to compensate the error according to the geometric distribution between the H-field antenna and the transmitting station is proposed. A model was developed to compensate the directional error of H-field antenna based on the signal generated from the eLoran signal simulator. The model is then used to the survey measurement performed in the land area and verify its performance.
