인터넷을 통해 멀티미디어 데이터의 접근이 보편화됨에 따라 다양한 형태의 데이터와 사용자 인터렉션이 요구되었고, 또한 유선 및 무선등과 같은 다양한 통신 선로에서 Desktop-PC, PDA, Hand-Held PC등과 같은 다양한 단말기를 통해 멀티미디어 데이터 서비스를 받으려는 사용자의 요구가 증가되고 있다. 따라서 이런 요구를 효율적으로 지원할 수 있는 멀티미디어 시스템에 대한 개발이 요구되었고, 이를 위해 MPEG4 표준이 등장하게 되었다. MPEG-4(ISO/IEC 국제표준 14496)는 오디오, 비디오, 합성 오디오, 그리고 그래픽스 요소(material)를 포함하는 멀티미디어 데이터로 구성된 복잡한 씬(scene)을 구성하고, 이를 통신라인을 통해 사용자와 상호작용이 가능한 멀티미디어 시스템을 정의하는 표준규약을 말한다. 본 논문에서는 Java와 Java3D기반의 MPEG-4 표준 규약에 충실한 MPEG-4 시스템 구현에 대하여 기술한다.

본 논문은 MPEG-4 컨텐츠를 구성하는 멀티미디어 객체 사이의 시간관계를 시각적으로 저작할 수 있는 저작 시스템을 제안한다. MPEG-4 시스템 표준안은 멀티미디어 객체들로 구성된 시청각장면을 컨텐츠 단위로 표현하기 위해서 장면을 기술하는 장면 디스크립터를 가진다. 장면 디스크립터는 멀티미디어 객체 사이의 공간관계와 시간 관계를 표현한다. 본 저작 시스템은 사용자가 쉽게 객체간의 시간 관계를 설정할 수 있는 저작 환경을 제공한다. MPEG-4 저작 도구는 사용자의 시각적인 저작을 통해서 객체간의 시간 관계를 표현하는 장면 디스크립션을 생성한다. 멀티미디어 객체간의 시, 공간 관계 저작을 가능하게 하는 MPEG-4 저작도구는 장면 디스크립션의 의미를 더욱 높여주고 사용자에게 효율적인 저작환경을 제공한다.

MPEG-4 시스템 표준은 오디오, 비디오, 이미지 등 다양한 멀티미디어 객체들을 통합하여 관리하고 전송하며 BIFS는 이러한 객체들의 표시 방법과 특성을 지정하고 하나의 장면을 구성할 수 있도록 해주는 기술 언어이다. 멀티미디어 데이터는 시간과 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있어서 객체들간의 시간 관계가 명확히 기술되어야 한다. 그러나 BIFS 명세에서는 하나의 객체에 대한 시간정보만 기술 할 수 있고 객체간 관계는 정의하고 있지 않다. 이에 본 논문은 객체간 동기화를 위한 시간관계 정보를 저장하는 노드를 BIFS에 추가하여 각 객체를 동기화 할 수 있도록 하는 확장된 BIFS를 정의하고 이를 기반으로 MPEG-4 저작 시스템을 구성하였다. 이로써 객체 동기화를 위한 별도의 구조를 추가해야하는 부담을 줄이고 MPEG-4 시스템 자체가 동기화 문제를 해결할 수 있다. MPEG-4 저작도구의 타임라인 바는 제작되는 컨텐츠 내의 멀티미디어 데이터들의 시간관계를 시각적으로 표현하고 시간관계 모델 조건에 따른 Group 노드를 생성한다.

Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB) is an upcoming standard in Korea used to provide mobile multimedia broadcasting service based on the Eureka-147 Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) system. The current dominant multimedia coding standard, MPEG-4, is foreseen to play an important role in forthcoming DMB services. However, the current approaches for transporting MPEG-4 content over DMB networks are not optimized. To address this issue we propose a novel MPEG-4 stream multiplexer, called M4SMux, which provides better stream multiplexing and delivery over DMB networks. M4SMux features an MPEG-4 elementary-stream interleaving mechanism that reduces the multiplexing overhead and a multiplex configuration mechanism that utilizes M4SLinkTable for easy content access. In addition, we propose an error correction method which enhances transport efficiency.

In moving picture coding standard MPEG2, a bit rate control system plays a key role for the compressing ratio and picture quality. We proposed a bit rate control scheme which assigns more bits to I, P frames and uses the average MQUANT of previous mackoblocks. The proposed scheme showed about 0.9dB improvement of image quality when compared to bit rate control method of MPEG2 Test-Model5.

This paper has presented the efficient implementation of MPEG-4 simple profile video decoder, which is used as video compression standard in mobile video communication. We have used the ARM9 processor in implementing this MPEG-4 simple profile, which requires much processing power and low power implementation. At first we implemented with C-language under the PC environment with ADS(ARM Developer Suite) environment, and then we have tried to reduce a clock cycle for a power consumption optimization through conversion an assembly language for C-code partly. We have verified the processor is operated at 22.47MHz operation after optimization, but 148MHz before optimization.

This paper proposes a adaptive video watermarking algorithm according to bitrate and motion vector size in MPEG2 system. The watermark strength in the I-frames is adapted for quantization step size and the strength in the P-B-frames is adapted for quantization step size and motion vector of macroblock to make the watermark more robust against the accompanying degradation due to aggressively compression. A realtime watermark extraction is done directly in the DCT domain during MPEG decoding without full decoding of MPEG video. The experimental simulations show that the video quality results almost invisible difference between the watermarked frames and the original frames and the watermark is resistant to frame dropping, MPEG compression, GoP conversion and low pass filter attacks.

MPEG-4 provides high compression rate and uses object-oriented method to describe components of its structure, which has currently risen as the core technique in multimedia service fields. Our research objective is to provide object manager to MPEG-4 system in order that effective multimedia service could be available by supporting powerful interaction and adapting to various networks and terminals. Through the object manger, priorities are given to objects of a scene tree and the objects having higher priorities are first rendered according to the terminal capability. It also manages synchronization and update of the scene tree and object informations caused by user interactions.

This paper proposes the novel synchronous segmented bus architecture that has the pipeline bus architecture based on OCP(open core protocol) and the memory-oriented bus for MPEG system. The proposed architecture has bus architectures that support the memory interface for image data processing of MPEG system. Also it has the segmented hi-directional multiple bus architecture for multitasking processing by using multi -masters/multi - slave. In the scheme address of masters and slaves are fixed so that they are arranged for the location of IP cores according to operational characteristics of the system for efficient data processing. Also the bus architecture adopts synchronous segmented bus architecture for reuse of IP's and architecture or developed chips. This feature is suitable to the high performance and low power multimedia SoC systum by inherent characteristics of multitasking operation and segmented bus. Proposed bus architecture can have up to 3.7 times improvement in the effective bandwidth md up to 4 times reduction in the communication latency.

VOD(Video On Demand) that provides streaming service according to the user's requirement in real time, consists of the video streaming server and the client system. Since it is very hard to apply the traditional server-client model that a server communicates with many clients through 1:1 connection to VOD system because it requires very high network bandwidth, many researches have been done to address this problem. Batching technique is one of VOD system based on Multicast that requires very small network bandwidth. However, the batching based VOD system has a limitation that it is very hard to provide VCR(Video Cassette Recorder) ability. In this paper, we propose a technique that reduces the required network bandwidth to provide VCR function by using the characteristic of MPEG, one of international video compression standard. In the proposed technique, a new video stream for VCR function is constructed with I pictures that is able to be decoded independently. The new video stream for VCR function is transmitted with the video stream for normal play together in Batching manner. The performance evaluation result shows that the proposed technique not only reduces the required network bandwidth and memory usage but also decreases the CPU usages.
